Pristine is back to school today after more than a week of vacation. She was so excited to go back to school and see her teacher and classmates once again!
She spent most of her vacation time at home because she got sick right after their program on the last day of school and I [...]

Go tell the bosses!
Pristine is having a term break from school and the last day of classes was last Wednesday, April 8th. They will be back to school again on the 19th so she’s at home, playing, watching her favorite DVD’s and nursing a bad cough (she caught a flu bug right after her school program last Wed).
Everyday [...]

little girls and fairies
Pristine’s school will be holding a concert on Wednesday and we’re pretty excited to go and see. Her class will have a sort of play and some singing and supposedly, their parts are kept secret from the parents so we will be in for a big surpirse. Yeah, right! Asking a bubbly 5 year old [...]

Clearly, I can’t homeschool
and that’s not being modest.
As a mom, I know what I can and cannot do. I know my limitations when it comes to my daughter, especially regarding her education. This I realized these past few days - I don’t have the capacity to teach Pristine at home. That being said, without snapping or getting edgy [...]

Hold it, hold it!
Today I drove Pristine to school. Her school is just about 10 minutes “real” distance by car from our house but if we count the terrible traffic piling up in the main road just a few meters from our apartment building, the short travel could take up to 30 minutes.
We were just halfway when she [...]

and then suddenly, brain freeze
I know I’ve got so many things I need to get done but amazingly, I don’t want to do anything now, except to write this post, of course. Have you ever experienced feeling as if time stopped? Like, you need to run, do chores but don’t have the strength to get up and take the [...]

They have blocked my cPanel
I’ve decided to dress this blog up differently hoping to boost my drive to write again. Sometimes, a girl just have to change wardrobe to be able to act effectively and be on the mood again. Call me crazy but I think that applies to blogs too.
Whatever.
I’ve downloaded some new themes that are probable [...]

Do you like Vanilla Donuts?
Pristine is a huge fan of Krispy Kreme and her fondness of the sweet stuff is inevitable whenever we go to a gasoline station to fill up. Here in Dubai, some gasoline stations (mostly the ones we frequent to) have a Krispy Kreme shop so almost always, she’ll notice and say, “Can you buy me [...]

Longer sleeping time is bliss
Pristine had no classes today because of the sports fest for the older years. No classes for her would mean a longer sleeping time for me, no rush in the mornings and longer sleeping time for her too. Waking up at 5:30 am and going out of the house as early as 7:15 a.m. everyday [...]
