S2's Trip and TaeKwonDo

S2's Residential Trip
Took boys to school in the car on Thursday morning as I wanted to send S2 off on his overnight residential trip. I have to say that when I waved bye to him, I could feel a little lump in my throat! Anyway, one of my friends said that she will come to school to pick her son up the next day....because of the "heavy" suitcase. Later in the evening, I told H that I might want to pick S2 up from school on Friday. H said "Whatever for? No bus?", and I replied that "W says that the bags are too heavy for the boys to carry on the bus...". H retorted with "What lah. You bunch of women! Don't be so tor-see lah. Please just let him take the bus". So I did.

When he came back, he looked quite tired...and I found out tha he didn't shower at all! He said that he didn't get a chance to shower. Like that also can?? Also found out that he had diarrhea in the morning...*sigh* Don't know what rubbish he ate.
We went out dinner for dinner and then to the mall...as H needed to buy some stuff. S2 went with H and S1 went with me to Metro to jalan-jalan. Wondered why they were taking sooooo long. ALAMAK! S2 had an "accident".... H said that it was such a mess that he had to throw the underwear!!! What to do? Gave him some medicine when we came home...
He did enjoy the trip...had all sorts of activities, plus he gets to sleep with his pals. 3 kids to a room, with a total of 4 rooms in each cottage....A teacher is assigned to each cottage.

TaeKwonDo Competition

TaeKwonDo Competition was held at their school today...with competitors from other school as well. S2 competed in two of the events, i.e. 1) Speed Kicking and 2) Obstacle Course. He did not take part in the Sparring competition as he is still a Beginner. He just got his Yellow Belt in Feb.

Kids Waiting for their Turn

Speed-Kicking was the first event. Basically, the aim is to kick a pad as many times possible in 30 seconds. When he was waiting for his turn, I told H to tell S2 to just concentrate and NOT look at mommy and daddy. Guess what
That fella....in the middle of his speed-kicking competition, look up and WAVED at US!!!
Aduh!!!

Of course distracted already lah. This one he got a medal for trying. (BTW, every competitor will get something one lah..... )

The next event was the Obstacle Course... have to say that S2 did quite well for this. He managed to get second place, and thus a trophy. :-)

S2's Medal and Trophy

That fella d@mn proud of his medal and trophy that he HAD to sit next to them during lunch. Hugged them in the car, and when we got home, took it upstairs downstairs etc. While in the car coming home...he said "mom...next time when we move house. If we have 2 spare rooms, can one be a trophy room?"....I was actually in quite a foul mood (more about this later...) but BURST out laughing when I heard that remark from S2. "I am going to join more competitions and win more trophies!" he added summore. "Hahahahahha...Oops. Think I shouldn't laugh. I should encourage you!" ...kekekkekekekekeke

Why in a foul mood? Have to wait TWO hours for the car to come back to school. H had to go to the States today. His flight was at 12 something...he followed us to school for the competition...managed to see the 1st event. He left at about 10 am. We were done with the second event at about 11 am..... Car only managed to come back to school at 1.15 pm. Had to wait in the heat sitting on very uncomfortable chairs. My backside also become flat liow......
