1st Term School Holidays (Highlights)

The past two weeks went like a blur to me with all the activities we did to make most of the 1st term school holidays. What we (Poch and I) liked about the past school holidays aside from waking up late in the mornings is that we get to spend the entire day with whatever we fancied to do as long as it does not involved so much expenses... hehehe Now, here are some highlights of the activities we did during the holidays...

~ we spent an afternoon exploring and window shopping at Harbour Town in West Perth with our new friend, Malou, who's actually our constant companion also during our 'laags' the past 2 weeks.

~ there were late afternoon visits also to the nearby parks and playground. It's one of Poch's favorite pastime now which is really way much better than "malling"... hehehe

~ our (Poch & I) third visit to the zoo was made possible last April 22 in order to accompany Malou in exploring the place. In the morning, there was a drizzle and very cloudy but it did not stop us from enjoying our third trip to the zoo. Poch now has a favorite spot at the zoo, the playground.

~ to cap off the 1st term school holidays, we attended a birthday party of Poch's twin classmates at one of the outdoor playground here in Perth last Friday, April 24. One of the moms of her classmates offered to give us a ride that's why we're able to get to the venue without any hassle. It was our first time to be in that place and I personally love the place. Aside from the great views and the big playground which you get to enjoy, the use of the area was all for free. For me, it's a great place to have picnics/bonding moments with the whole family or friends. =)

Tomorrow will be the start of the 2nd term. Poch's quite excited to go back to school (I hope it always be this way until she's all grown up hehehe). Inspite of the fun activities we had during the holidays, I could sense that she still misses school maybe because of the kind of fun she's having during her interactions with her classmates. She's grown a lot now and it's not only us (Thomas & I) who noticed. Every now and then, I would hear positive comments from some parents of her classmates how Poch have come out of her shell slowly since she started school here last year. Thus, I hope that this 2nd term will be another more enjoyable school learning experience for Poch. And I will surely miss her company in the coming days.
