First Day at school

It's a new year, new semester, new school for Cassie. As i'm here, woke up about 6am preparing her things for school, i've came to realized this is gonna be a new routine to get adjusted to.

She's now enrolled to a more 'serious school' near our house. It's near the 'Yoke Chai' primary school and it's using all the school's syllabus. It does sounds like some kind of pre-school for university studies isnt' it ? but that's the way it goes in KL.

There are a lot of choices in KL or PJ, where i'm staying. There's the 'branded' type meaning the school brand is as close to 'Gucci' in fashion. In addition, there's the 'private' label as i called them. Those are the private school, starts from 2 years old till you're ready to jump into college. Then, there's the 'carefree' type. This is the ones where the school does not emphasize on anything except freedom. Oh, no my friend, this type doesn't work very well in malaysia. I'm sure it worked well other places, but nope, don't think so here. Then there's the 'serious' type. The schools are serious over discipline, independant, reading, studying and the whole load of homework. OK, so, among the 'branded', the 'private', the 'carefree' and the 'serious', she will be attending the 'serious' one mainly because she got her share of freedom from her play-school and i do not wanted to instill the 'brand' idea too much to her.

However, nothing more but because she's now 'officially' 5 yrs old (even she just got her 4 yrs old b'day present 3 months ago), meaning all the serious heavy lifting study now is required. She had taken a break from schooling for at least 6 months now since we decided to move down to KL. Thus, i know inside me that this is the right thing to do.

So, here we go. A new year, new beginning for all of us ! it's gonna be a good year :)
