小姐，你要去哪里？
Aeon asked me in a cheeky manner since last saturday.
I thought he asked me only, but seems like he also asked Roland the same question.
This is not from Doraemon show.
So where did he pick this up?

5th day of childcare
Today is a better day, I am feeling better because yesterday turned out ok.
The same thing happened.
During the morning, he cried and asked a teacher to carry him.
As usual, the teachers told me that Aeon was better without us around.
Teacher told us to buy a new water bottle for him because Aeon carried his bottle everywhere even in his sleep (maybe this is his security bottle, the only thing he can hug when he's alone) - this bottle leaks.
He's still not eating well, eat the fruit but not the rice.
As usual, he cried after his nap looking for ME.
I asked Aeon if he like school just now, he told me 喜欢！

4th day at childcare
This is a scary day for me and Aeon because this is the real day where we left him at the childcare for the whole day. Waking up Aeon is a little tougher today, he kept saying he wanted to sleep.
Aeon seemed to sense something because he insisted us to carry him, asking for re-assurance like asking us to sayang him.
While we were walking towards the childcare centre, he claimed "读书“！
After entering the class, he ran in to play with the toys.
When it was time to bye him, he ran towards us telling us that he wanted to go home with us.
We had to quickly dash out and hid behind the door.
We peeped at him from outside and saw him standing at a spot looking really lost, betrayed, puzzled. He squatted down and pout his lips (crying).
To be frank, my heart is so painful seeing him like this (eyes teary, heavy hearted).
I was feeling so lost the whole day - so difficult to concentrate in work.
I called the childcare during lunch time and they told me that he was ok.
Towards the end of the day, I went to fetch him and teacher told me he was crying (lunch time, after his nap, on and off ) looking for ME! :(
When he saw me, he was so thrilled and ran towards me.
Another cute thing is, many other kids walked towards me and said hi to me.
They have befriended me during my stay there :)

The big night market at Bishan
Last Sunday:There's a really big market at Bishan Interchange, it is quite a disappointment. This is just like any night market that you will expect to find in neighbourhood. I missed those night markets in Bangkok, when will we ever have the same type in Singapore?
Anyway, this is set up for CNY, I cannot really feel the CNY ambiance.
There is this electronic toy cars that attracted Aeon's attention.
He cried for more than 10 mins and we finally gave in to him.
$4 for 10 wonderful short-lived minutes for a little boy - this is his first attempt to 'operate' a car (this is remotely controlled by Roland, Aeon thought he was the one operating, he adjusted the gear/clutch several times).
We do not mean to pick a PINK car for him, but this was the only remote controlled one available at that time.
Not sure what is wrong, there is this little old boy who kept disturbing Aeon, he would purposely bumped into Aeon's pink car.
Well, it is the same sad ending for every kid, they cried for more......
Third day at childcare
Today Aeon was being 'carried' by the principal during the class. The principal told Aeon that he needed to sit together with the classmates and not did what he liked/pleased. She told me that we need to let him know what is right and wrong (followed the class) and asked me to sit together with Aeon. This seems to work a little, he was actually quite obedient and played together.
I saw Aeon played with water just now, so I guessed he's really being naughty (he removed his diaper and said he wanted to pee, and he kept washing his hands and went to pee, washed hands then pee....repetitively).
There is a really nice teacher called Teacher Wayne, he seems to be more patient and I like the way he handled the kids - patient and professionally).
During lunch time, a teacher appointed a little girl to distribute the lunches to the kids - praising her that she is so independent and clever like a class monitor. She looks really independent and was distributing the plates neatly until the second last plate (btw, they are having rice with egg + veggies + water melon). This 2nd last plate is kinda tough because she couldn't reach the kid whom was sitting at the far end, so she had to try to reach the kid with her short hands.... In the end, the soup spilled onto a little boy's head. This is then, the teacher 'scolded' her "I don't want you to help me, you go back to your seat" ... I cannot remember what else she said, but I could see the disappointment and embarrassment in her eyes. This is when the sensitive teacher Wayne re-assured her and told her it is ok....
Tomorrow we had to let Aeon stay for a whole day, this is when my heart will start to break - seeing him cry at the windows (maybe?). The teachers also told me that tomorrow they will start to 'train' Aeon to behave himself. :{
I brought Aeon to the library today to borrow some books. (Have to admit that this is the first time I brought him to the library).
I forgot to bring the housekeys out today, in the end I had to seek shelter at my mum's (waiting for Roland).
Photo taken just now from my new Iphone :) Forgot to bring my camera today:
Aeon sat next to Zenith today, Zenith is so guai, I saw him went to pee himself and put on his own shorts, so independent (I never peep at him, Aeon copied him to pee just now):
The boy on the right (bottom right of the photo), this is the cute little boy who asked me to hold his hands and sat on my lap on Monday.
The little girl (backview , short hair with the white and green uniform) - she is a very interesting little girl, she can speak very well, always complain to me, Aeon touched her hair, 'beat her stomach' etc.,

Second day of school
Aeon was scolded again coz teacher thought he played with water - he heard a teacher asking a kid to wash hands so he followed suit (kids like to follow one another). :P
Roland accompanied Aeon today and there is a little boy who followed Roland everywhere.
Photos taken by Roland, I cannot relate much coz I wasn't there:
This is the same little boy who was following me on Monday :) He is so cute, he followed Roland and cried when Roland walked out to buy a drink:

Fir st day of school
Aeon started his class today!
It is quite easy to wake him up.
Fed him 180 ml of milk and dressed him up for class.
Met Serena, Mark and Celeste at the childcare (Zen is sick so the boys did not manage to see each other).
First 2 hours: Aeon roamed around freely and touched everything he could reach. This is like a big playground for him.
Next 2 hours: He started to affect other classes, roamed into the older children's learning area and the teacher had to ask him to go back to his area. Aeon took a toy (plastic spatula?) and smacked the floors and ran. I was sitting outside watching him from a corner. I supposed he actually hit some classmates because I heard the Chinese teacher scolded and told him off. I believed Aeon defied the teacher saying something and the teacher said something back. I also saw Aeon threw a toy orange at the teacher (2 times) and made the teacher really angry.
Shortly after, Aeon roamed near and found some cards and offered it to her, she displaced her anger by throwing it onto the table.
She also told the rest not to follow this bad example of little boy and mentioned that will call the Police! (I am totally embarassed). Aeon cried and walked and looked for me.
A little boy followed me everywhere and sat on my lap (He thought that I am either his mummy or teacher).
During lunch, this little boy was sitting with us and Aeon (as usual, he is a clumsy boy) turned around and looked at the boy. As he turned, his other hand flipped over the lunch and the whole bowl fell off the table and created a big mess. Oops..... The chinese teacher had to sweep the mess for Aeon.
The kids watched Barney while waiting for their turns to bathe and lunch.
Aeon did not eat any breakfast or lunch there and I was kinda worried but the teachers assured that he will pick up slowly.
I was thinking of letting him nap there but changed my mind as he kept telling me that he wanted to watch Barney. He thought that he could do whatever he like there.
They feedback that Aeon is a very active boy, he seems to be 'ok' and can 'fit' in and they will discipline him when the parents are not around.
Related from my point of view.
How does my Aeon feel? Too bad he still cannot relate well enough.
It is a fun day for him.

The Chinese teacher asked me if Aeon is like this back home - there is no one Aeon will hit at home, he wouldn't beat us (so where does he learn from?).
She told us that we need to teach him at home because we do not want our kids to be hit by other kids too. I totally agree.... who likes their kids to be bullied?

Updates
Went to submit the childcare application form today :) So Aeon is starting school next Monday.
I am feeling pretty nervous and excited because I still feel like I am the one going to school.
Aeon seems to be really happy with his new school bag, he carries it everywhere (even slept with his bag for 3 long hours this afternoon). He placed his water bottle, some dvds, Doraemon wrapper and some other 'junk' in the bag - thinking that he would need them.
Aeon is currently staying with my mum.
We will visit him every alternate day.
We visited him just now and he was pretty sad and 'angry' and wanted to follow us home :(
