Sombre Stories

I am quite disturbed with today's news in the paper. A three year old girl died when the tv set in her house tumbled and fell onto her. She was crushed to death. So many freak mishaps had happened for the past few days. Too much of sad stories in the paper.Yesterday it was reported that a 4 year old boy fell to death from his 8th storey apartment. A few children and a teacher died when the boat they used for training went crashing after a high tide. We can't take things for granted. Safety is very-very important. As parents, we must ensure our house is child friendly. Always keep an eye on the kids. Nobody would have thought a tv could tumble down and crash on the girl's head. Never ever leave the children unattended even for a few seconds.All those accidents could have been avoided if only we were a bit careful in our actions. If only there was someone with the girl supervising her while she was watching tv, she could have been alive today. If only the mother of the boy didn't leave him alone in the house to attend an interview, he would have been alive today. If only the school children and the teacher had worn the life jackets while training, they too would have been alive today. Parents and teachers play a pivotal role in in this. We must always ensure the safety of our children. It is a timely reminder for us . Never take safety for granted. This is the lesson I learnt today from the newspaper. In a way, it will be a boom for the plasma tv. After this, more people will change their tv set from the big bulky ones to the flat and slim plasma tvs. Reason...to avoid any mishaps. Now I have got a good reason to change my tv set.........:)

Quiet Sunday

I am enjoying my quiet Sunday today. Occasionally you ought to give some time for yourself. Time to get recharged after a long hectic week. Daddy has gone on an outing with the girls today. They have gone to Tampin to have a bonding session with their paternal grandparents there. The house is so quiet. I wonder what they are doing there right now! I am here alone doing my school work without any disturbance. Time to update my blog too and ya not forgetting the facebook. It's really nice to meet your old school mates in the FB. I have found some of my primary school friends whom I have not seen for donkey years. It rekindles the good old memories.

My Mentor

A picture with my ex boss, En Sukimin B Juki. He has now gone on a transfer to another school. He is the one who inspired me to create a blog for myself. A very IT savvy person he is. He created our school blog and did the template for each class so that the class teachers could publish their posts. None of us had heed his calls. We were just couldn't care less about it simply because we didn't know how to manage it and we had no time to post our entries. Some of us are a bit computer illiterate including yours truly....he he he.Until now our class blogs are empty. Once in a while I do publish my posts regarding the Year Six activities in our school blog. So, that was how I learnt to blog. It's pretty interesting. Once u start u will get addicted to it. Thank you, Sir!
