April

my boy was at kinderland yiochukang when he was 2 till 3 yrs old before I sent him to kindy. He enjoys it. If the teachers are the same should be mrs chia. My boy adores her. She's very motherly. How's the student teacher ratio now? Beware of mosquitoes though. My boy enjoys going out to play with the rabbits and the playground. When he moved to a kindy, they say he kept running around but I didn't see that when he was at kinderland. I like that they have their own classroom and so he didn't fall sick that often there except for 1 major episode. I think many of his classmates have progressed to their kindergarten or full day childcare. It's too ex for me so I moved him out after that.

Re hot water in japan

I think the only time I asked for hot water was in mcdonald's and they gave readily.

It's $398 agency fee plus $265 insurance for nation right?

Actually I kind of prefer transfer maid. Can interview n c her face. Photos are mostly not accurate.

BOBO, APRIL

Thanks. I'm so blur at this maid thing. In laws prefer indonesian n big agency. Sigh what big agencies r there other than nation?

 

[pegsfur]

KFC gives out readily too

Oh that was the hotel I stayed that time. The room is v small. Not much place for movement and the double bed is smaller than our queen size bed.

For this hotel, u must make sure u exit with the correct exit if not u really have to walk more than half an hr to look for yr hotel.

Let me go and dig which exit u should exit. With the correct exit u will find e hotel in less than 10 mins...

 

[jumbobo]

jul/sl:: NO..enfapro & enfagrow scoop NOT the same.. grow is bigger now. it's abt 1 scoop = 60ml water. (abt double that of enfapro?)

i oni noe NATION & BUDGET as the bigger ones.. haha.....

 

[jul_04]

SL

Thanks! I'll pour out the free samples n use the scoop then

 

[jul_04]

Bobo

[donkeymami]

Jul, vy simple u still using enfa pro right? so 1 scoope = ??ml water?

For enfa grow, it's 1 scoop = 60ml water. then u will knw is the same size.

 

[piggytoh]

Jul,
i cant remember the fee wor... hmm actually u interview or not also cant tell wat kind of person she is until she start working... so really la it abt luck.. i jus chose 1 i see her face i feel comfortable 1..

SL,
oh mus tell Zen liao... i goin to stay at Shinjuku washington hope better..

 

[jumbobo]

jul:: hehe.. yes.. it's different. in fact for few other FM too.. for 1yo onwards stage, it's bigger scoop already. if u read the mixing instuction on the sample pack u hv..n divide it, u shld be able to guesstimate it bah.

enfapro shld be abt 1 scoop = 1oz (30ml) water bah...

 

[celyw]
