Hbb, are u referring to dried figs or the fresh fruit? If fresh fruit, does 6-7 pieces mean we slice the fruit and only use 6-7slices? I'm noob, sorry.
I'm almost giving up hope on the western medicine. Nasal swab test shows high level of Moraxella catarrhalis bacteria which is common childhood cough infection. He is finishing the whole bottle of antibiotic and there's only 50% improvement. High chance that he may need to topup with more/different antibiotic which I'm kinda reluctant and lost hope in. I want full recovery, yet I don't like the idea of too much medicine. Haiz...

actually my boy same thing. He coughs at night and in the morning. Then when weather turns cold, he'll cough too. We just let it be coz we realize it's not illness actually. He self recover when it's warm again. I understand that swimming will help. Not play water but real swimming. So just have to wait till older to learn swimming. He's considered asthmatic btw.

Waaah! So much to catch up on!
Dino-mum - you can give talk on Pri 1 system and we can pay to sign up for your talk! Thank you very much for sharing all the info because all that takes a lot of time! Muak!
lamagier - I quickly read the posts and just wanted to say that you turned out a whole lot more than OK! ;-)
I also do agree that if you really cannot get into a school of your choice, it's not the end of the world. I know many many intelligent people who come from not so well known schools. I know people who have double doctorates who come from very non-prestigious schools! ;-P
And yes, the GEP prog - it's mainly so that you don't have to change schools if you want to try for those schools. I have 2 relatives who were in the GEP programme and their mum regretted putting them there because it ended up doing a lot of project work and they basically had to do lots of research themselves and not much teaching by the teachers. Of course the syllabus can change over time though!

mashy,
i heard from my friend that her son who was 1 year old who have medicine since he born because of asthmatic now her son condition getting worse. Sometime i also feel scare that thing will make worse if i never take good care of my girl. Ya same here if hot weather my girl will not cough too. yesterday she have a sound sleep to the morning, i think weather also play a part. Swimming is good for body, heheh my mum use to send me for swimming lesson 3 times a week during my young days but hor now i have a wide shoulder due to swimming. maybe those who have girl must be careful on this.

it does. But it only eased his throat. Doesn't stop the cough.
Pinky
my boy was on nebulizer very often when he was young. Until we had to buy the machine. Kept getting bronchitis and even admitted to hospital. But now he's much better. Has been more than a yr since his last episode. Even when he coughs, it doesn't develop into bronchitis anymore. But he still gets this phlegmy cough whenever it turns cold. Can only hope to improve his health by swimming.

Re: Cough
when I was young I have either runny nose / cough every week.
then no choice other then western med, my mum make me fish maw soup (not those fired fish maw but the dried kind) almost every 2 weeks and cong cao every month..
They also let me swim mainly to build up the lungs and to expose to more sunlight as its believe its the shi qi that keeps giving me the cold cough.
Weather plays a part house dust too. so can take note on this 2.

Re: PT job
on My Paper today, NTUC collected some data from children age 10 - 14. Most of the kids prefers that their mother to be home by 6pm.
This is a exactly what we working mum wants. We don't mind working 5 days a week but we want to be home earlier to tend to the children.
If we can work from 9am - 5pm this will be probably the preferred arrangment for working mums.

Now still hv jobs from 9-5 meh? When they changed to 5 day week, they extended the officE hours. In fact the hours are more than if u work on sats. Then lesser annual leave too. Sian

mashy, yes! my ex co! 9-5pm plus providing co. transport island wide (north,south,east,west & central). good staff welfare. 5days week. company focus alot on work life balance. we are allowed to work from home (even finance division). is really a good plc to retire but too bad they outsource most of the dept to china & india and thousands of staff were being retrenched worldwide. Used to be a popular brand before iphone. hahaha.

bestberries, i think if convert to PT & work 3x a week maybe there might be a paycut of at least 60% excluding losing out staff welfare entitlement.
i'm planning to 'retire' & dont mind working PT at macdonald (maybe 99% paycut???) when i hit 40yrs old. counting down to my retirement days...........
I hope my dh read this. hahaha.

Bestberries, you can use this formula to calculate how much you should get if working PT:
FT monthly salary x No. of PT working hours per week / No. of FT working hours per week.
Most of the companies require staff to work 8 hours (at least) a day excluding lunch break!! so 9 to 5 is almost impossible.
Perhaps can consider flexi hours, i.e. start early and end early, but not all companies support this.
I can reach home by 6pm but I start work at 7.45am….good thing is I dun have to pay ERP though traffic is still terrible in the morning.

i want to play with my kids, bring them to parks, museums, bake muffins, cook breakfast for my hb, go for spa, massage, shopping, high tea, travelling, watching tv... oops. writing it out now, i tink i will only spend 30% of my "retirement time" on hb and kids, the rest on it will be lazing around.

I was in MPH Raffles City today and they are extending the storewide 30% discount to today. Which is why I called you but the reception was super bad, on both ends - Jurong Island and inside the MPH bookstore. I managed to get KK and she is going down later, you may wish to ask her to help you buy?

Chiyojade,

dino-mum,
I'm very lousy at mooncakes! I tried the ones at Raffles a long time ago and liked them. I have discount at Hyatt if you are interested, but dunno if they are good or not.
Someone on the BP (I think) is collecting orders for Goodwood Park so that they can get bigger discount.
