Intelligentible

If that is even a word.

I'm pretty bad with vocab and sometimes make up my own and spout it with so much confidence that I make people believe that's there's actually such a word ..

See..how far great confidence can carry you .. so be CONFIDENT! I tell you!!

Today is the second day Niki took off from school coz she's feeling under the weather .. I think she got zoo-a-nitis, our good doctor said that Niki would be fine in a day or two, and not to worry.

This morning when she woke up she was in better spirits & was talking a lot more than yesterday .. while she was on the potty .. Niki grilled me this morning about school and I told her that not to worry coz I have informed her principal that she would be away from school for a few days until she got better. And I assured her though she's not present Teacher Alice or Teacher Anne would continue to teach her other friends ... kids think of the darnest things don't they ?..

My three+ yo is in Nursery now and boy oh boy I'm pretty proud coz she really enjoys school and to top it off she really loves learning .. I guess those genetic imprints comes from her daddy (thank God!) .. as much as she has learnt from school, I've learnt from her as well .. and she sometimes shocks me with the extent of her vocabulary & understanding (*beams*) .. when I woke her yesterday morning to take her temperature, I told her I'm gonna take her to the doctor's of which she replied that she only wants to go to the clinic and not to the hospital and vehemently told me that she does not intend to stay the night at the hospital .. I was taken aback by the admission.

And she memorizes really well too .. and sometimes her brains work like a photocopier which is pretty awesome to me! Coz I tried remembering how I was as a kid .. and I know for sure that my mental aptitude & understanding is no where near this capacity ..!!

In short, Niki is doing really, really well in school and we're so very proud of her.

And here's a funny joke along the same subject that I wanted to share with you.

(taken from Karen Cheng's blog .. I really liked it coz it's really funny!)

The Father of My Children Joke

A man was in the supermarket when he saw an attractive woman waving him over and smiling. He walked over, unsure of who she was.
“I’m sorry”, he said, “but I don’t think I recognise you”.
“I think you’re the father of one of my children”, the woman said, smiling.
The man’s heart nearly stopped as he though back to the one time he had been unfaithful - his buck’s night. “Are you the stripper?” he asked, astonished. “Are you the one who rubbed whipped cream all over me on the pool table while you slapped my butt with a with a wet celery?”
Wide-eyed and shocked the woman replies, “No, I’m your son’s math teacher.”

Hehehehehe .. funny eh.. ;-)
