\n(Every day before the girls’ bed time, we have to spend about 30mins on book reading. Most books selected by Zara is princess related, and Zaria likes her Baby, Boo! and Maisy series, so these are the books I read repeatedly to the girls. I do love reading, but then, I only get to read my book in the toilet ahem while doing my business. So it takes like 3 to 4 months to finish one.)<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u2122\u00a57 things you don’t know about me\u00e2\u2122\u00a5<\/strong><\/span> :<\/p>\n

1) I studied 12 years in a famous Chinese school (not even government but semi-private where everything is taught in Chinese) but I think my English is better than my Chinese. \ud83d\ude41
\n2) I used to be a teacher : 1.5yrs in a primary school, and then another 2yrs in an English Language Centre for children. I thought I was going to make teaching my life time profession.
\n3) I normally do relatively well academically, but for A-levels, I scored 2Ds and 1N and received several warnings from the college because I skipped classes way too often (all because of a stupid ex boy friend)
\n4) I almost gave up hope trying for a baby<\/a>, and thought we’ll never going to have children, and then we got Zara.
\n5) I’m very impatient, I get very upset if I needed to repeat something several times and the other person just don’t get it. I think I’m a lousy teacher to Zara.
\n6) I absolutely hate clutter but then I myself am not a very tidy person.. I mean I want to be tidy, but I have difficulty maintaining it.
\n7) I’m very sentimental, I like to keep rubbish<\/strike> mementos. My BT phone card during uni days, the entrance ticket to museums I’d visited, the extra small blouse I once was able to fit in… I have more cupboards than Daddy in the house to store all these. \ud83d\ude1b And he calls me a rubbish collector.<\/p>\n

And I pass this to :
\nSyn<\/a>; Seng Kor<\/a> (You have become a mystery); Irene<\/a><\/p>\n
