These weeks I am feeling so lethargic. After the long relaxing days before and after CNY for my banker, he had to travel quite occasionally for business leaving me alone at home with the 3 kids. On one hand, I feel it's good to be having a break from him, meals are simpler, house is tidier, nights are more "peaceful".. *wink*
On the other, it's very tiring running here and there all by myself, driving the kids up and down from school, and taking all 3 for their music classes. Well, there's always no best-of-both-worlds, is there?
Worse still, when korkor is getting his homework done and couldn't understand the chinese words, how do I on earth help him out in there? Well, not exactly no hope though. One night, I looked through my list of contacts and buzzed whoever was online for SOS help. It helps with the doodle IMvironment, can be fun and helpful in times like these. There are also some useful Chinese English dictionary sites but usually it is easier if the chinese word can be pinyin-ed. If all fails, sorry la, dear. I would then tell him "Tomorrow, just ask your teacher, ok?" People be mom, I be mom, I guess there's not many moms like me right now, hoh? Blek!
Apart from that, I had been staying up late "working" online, and tutoring korkor for his upcoming term test. It is so tiring that finally I just plopped on the bed yesterday night at 11pm without even bothering to switch the light off or put the laptop away from the bed. Shucks! This morning I woke up with a baggy left eye.. helppppppp!!!
Guess I really really really need to sleep earlier from now on.
