Holiday’s Over

28 Sep

After a week’s break, M2 was supposed to return to school today but school’s closed because of the haze. M1, on the other hand, started Fall term last Thursday after a lengthy summer break.

It had been a somewhat unproductive week for M2 at home, watching videos mostly. Looks like this may extend for another day. Hopefully, she goes back to school tomorrow and no more videos for her. As for M1, she did some traveling afternoon one summer session and thoroughly enjoyed her break away from campus. With Fall starting, M1 has a busy and hectic term ahead.

While one is not quite back in school and one already started classes, as far as I am concerned, the holidays are over and it’s full steam ahead with studying until the next break.

Bury the Bee, Part 1

5 Jul

After the haze cleared last week, we had some lost honey bees in the house! The poor insects must have had their homing device hampered for we had about four to five of them roaming in the girls’ bathroom, study and TV room.

Last Saturday, M2 solemnly announced, “Mummy. You must attend a memorial service.”

Shocked, I asked, “Eeeks! Who died?”

“The bee,” both chorused and pointed to an unmoving bug by their bookshelf.

So we had a quick memorial service for the little fella, and buried it at the designated pet cemetery in the garden, where all the other gone-to-heaven pets are laid to rest.

RIP little fella.
