DS said they have to wear uniform coming to school and going back home, otherwise they get \"booked\". we bought 3 sets so that means have to wash and iron everyday! :yikes:


How many sets of uniform did u buy?

I bought 3 sets too....weekend iron all 3 sets....last from mon to wed. Monday and Tuesday's uniform must wash when ds comes back so that it can dry and be ironed for Thurs & Fri. DH suggested letting him put on the same uniform for 2 days but I find when he comes back, the pants (backside part) a bit black - he said got to sit on the floor. So yes, got to put on clean ones everyday.

That is what I am doing too. I don't have a maid so I am doing the washing and ironing, except when my part-time helper comes on Tues. I think with sweat and dirt all that it is better to change everyday.

I was thinking that maybe blutack or double sided tape can work just as well...

Velcro, lah. The double-side tape kind, not the sew-on kind.

use hot glue. Sure stay.

[quote=\"jtoh\"]You're going to sew the curtains yourself? Wah!

Yes. It is so costly to customise and the shops don't have the fabric I like. So I bought the fabric myself and DIY loh.

Very impressive! :salute:
Have always admired those who have such skills as yours.
I can only sew simple stuff like a loose button! :oops:[/quote]I am an amaturer. I do a lot of research and planing before I started. Plenty of demo on you tube.

Anyway people won't come really close to judge good is your skill. So long as it ends up looking like a piece of curtain I think I do a good job. :imanangel:

Have u mummies finished spring cleaning your house for cny or still busy with kids ?...

80% spring cleaning done with help from part-time domestic helper.

Last year at this time I wanted to sew a new set of curtain for master bedroom (we don't use curtain for the rest of the house) before CNY but no time la. One year forward it is still not done! And CNY is just around the corner!!

I already got the fabric and today MUST start! Die die must put up for this year CNY. :xedfingers:

Vsk , don't be so dishearten...today is just the 1st day of sch , everyone is like strangers to him , I think after a few weeks later when he makes new friends he will be alright ...

He said no one talked to him. I told him to make the attempt to talk to others first. Like you said, maybe it's the first day. Hopefully, things will be better for him soon. I want him to be happy in his school.

It is only the first day so it is not unusual not to know others yet. He will soon make new friends. Tell him not to worry too much.

Hi vsk

which class is ur ds in?Any GEP in his class?

Ds said he is in 1R. Don't know whether any GEP in his class. Didn't really socialise. His ex classmate Hao Yu is from your son's class. Wish he was put in a class where he knows someone..... like 1D

Verysuperkiasu, is your DS from GEP?

Ms tay:

Hi vsk

which class is ur ds in?Any GEP in his class?

My DS said his GEP friends are all scattered around. There are 3 other friends+ himself from the GEP cohort of his school. There are non-GEP in the same class. 29 in a class.

His best friend is in the same class. So heng.
