Mamu

I enrolled David for 6 Saturday session for Math tutorial. Unfortunately this Saturday he was absent due to cough and fever. I remember when he was still a toddler he always get confined in the hospital due to cough and fever too. I wonder if he really has poor lungs. I did not bring him to the doctor and we just bought Calpol for his fever and phlemex for his cough. I hope he gets well before the class resume this coming Wednesday. We still need to study for his up coming periodical test.

I'm a little disappointed with my sons first monthly exam result. Though he doesnt have a failing grade most of his exams are in line of 8 (ex. 83,85, 89). Before when he was in preschool his exams are always in 90's if not perfect. I don't know if he is having a hard or just losing focus. I remember when I was in grade 1 then I study on my own and make my home work without any help from my parents. 

When I review him it looks like he understand everything but when I check his exams he forgets little things and sometimes mixed things up. I guess he needs more nutritious food, not sure. He no longer milk and most of the meal that he eat are processed food like hotdogs, luncheon meat, tocino, longganisa etc. 

While doing assignments for the past week. I noticed that David doesn't enjoy much reading and writing. Due to this sometimes he don't finish their school activity on time and mostly he have low score when it comes to answering questions on short story. I think he got it from me, me too I don't love reading. I wonder what do I do to help him improve on this. We are now in computer world and what he enjoys doing are playing games online and on his Ipad.

We are not able to get his Ipad for his birthday request due to my credit card problem but I'm hoping it will get fixed at the end of this month. Anyway we just had a simple celebration at home, Robin cooked spaghetti and I made some lumpia. Thanks to Tita Weng for his birthday cake and to Nanay for bringing ice cream. 

Last June 4 most schools already started. But for my son who will be in grade one, theirs will start on June 13. He is not excited going back to school he said, he still likes to play. I know its gonna be more serious, less play compared to preschool. He will be part of the new school curriculum which is K12. I was not able to attend the school meeting about this last year. But what I've heard the school will use native language in teaching and the curriculum will be more advanced. I knew he will be able to cope up and I am praying that he would get better achievement as he grew up. 

Two more weeks and David will be back to school but this time in elementary. He's done with playtime and is going to face now a more serious world of studying. I knew he will be able to cope up. Beside I will always be there to support him. We haven't bought books and school supplies yet because we are running out of budget.... urgh. Anyways I know God will provide our needs. Excited for David's new world.

Last Saturday I decided to watch The Avengers with my son, David and my hubby, Robin. It was after my graveyard shift we decided to wait for the first show at SM Molino. The mall opens at 10:00am and we arrived there maybe around 10:10am. All the four cinemas is showing The Avengers with different schedule, I think they have one hour interval. We watched the first show which starts at 10:20am. Good thing I asked the cashier to check my advantage points, the three of us was able to watch the movie for free. David requested for a big pack of cheese popcorn. I bought instead a package of large cheese popcorn + footlong sandwhich with two softdrinks. I also have with me a pack of 10pcs of small siopao which I bought from work. 

I haven't read the comics of Avengers but I am familiar with some of the heroes. I find the start of the movie quite slow but in the long run its very exciting. The effects are so great, maybe it would have been better if we watch it in 3D. Anyways I asked my husband to watch the 2nd show but then we are asked to go out because they have one screening policy. Nyek... I wonder why they have that since the theater is not even full. I remember we watch "Enteng ng Ina Mo" last December and they don't have that policy. Anyway... I enjoyed the movie but would like to see it again.

David is counting days before his birthday. He is really excited for his new gadget, maybe an itouch or an ipad. For the mean time he keeps on playing my iphone and this time he got hooked with the smurfs. Those cute little blue creatures, how lovely. 

My son will be in elementary this coming school year and just wanted to share how much the tuition is specially to those who are hunting for school. This is actually for grades 1 to 3. The books for grade 1 cost P5055 not sure with grades 2 and 3. Harrel Horne is in Pag-asa just beside the Maluto Medical Clinic.
