Cen the rock music star
At the end of movie.
They pick a rock music as a theme.
Cen is standing on the bed.
Both hands handling an invisible guitar.
She rocks to the music.
What strikes me the most is that.....her hair was not tied...
So the long and loose hair she purposely let it down in front of her face.
And she pays the guitar looking like a rock music star

Cen: Ok! Ok! Ok! Ok! Ok! Ok!

When does Chopin goes to school
Kakak goes to kindy everyday.
Chopin followed nenek to fetch kakak every afternoon.
She was excited...cause...
Kakak got to ride in her yellow school van everyday to go to school.
Abok: Nina nak sekolah sik?
Chopin: Nodded
Abok: The only way we know that you are ready for school is that you can wash yourself after going to the toilet.
It was immediate. Suddenly she knew how to do everything on her own.
She was off to school the next month.
Again...we were late.
Looking at the track record...
Teacher had no worries.
She was again accepted in the middle of the year.

Akiko goes to school
She was 6.
We were in KL.
We found a kindy that is very close yet far from our house.
What we did was...we brought her to the kindy for a visit.
The teacher there told us we were quite late.
As all the classes started in January..and we only came in June.
So there was a lot of catching up to be done.
So...the teacher put her to a test.
Well...she pass....
Actually she had learned all that at home from Barney and Mr Snoothy!
Her teacher asked her to count til 16.....she actually can carry on counting till 100.
But...we kept quiet.
After that we heard no complaints.

To Sir With Love
Those schoolgirl days, of telling tales and biting nails are gone,
But in my mind,
I know they will still live on and on,
But how do you thank someone, who has taken you from crayons to perfume?
It isn't easy, but I'll try,
If you wanted the sky I would write across the sky in letters,
That would soar a thousand feet high,
To Sir, with Love
The time has come,
For closing books and long last looks must end,
And as I leave,
I know that I am leaving my best friend,
A friend who taught me right from wrong,
And weak from strong,
That's a lot to learn,
What, what can I give you in return?
If you wanted the moon I would try to make a start,
But I, would rather you let me give my heart,
To Sir, with Love

Ben
Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you, my friend, will see
You've got a friend in me
Ben, you're always running here and there
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
If you ever look behind
And don't like what you find
There's one thing you should know
You've got a place to go
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
Ben, most people would turn you away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see you as I do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben
