lots to tell about 3/3

/3...

oh yes... before anything else, let me tell you all people that puteri finally got her upsr exam result last thursday. i really felt bad when i had to attend our last meeting on the taiping zoo project on the very same day. our meeting ended around noon. then only i realized that puteri sms me her results. she got 2As and 3Bs, alhamdulillah... i am so proud of her, no matter what. i quickly sms dad and asked him to fetch megat, while i would fetch puteri. i drove calmly, can't wait to see my puteri. i was kinda nervous in the morning but when i saw her that afternoon, she looks really relaxed instead i tell you.

i was lucky that i had to be in taiping during the weekend. we reached there on friday, after puteri's ballet class. talking about ballet, puteri got A for her last ballet test. i guess i forgot to post about it few months ago ;)

back to the taiping story, i said that i was lucky because i always tried my best to take the chance to have some extra times with my kids too, especially when we organized any community programme. i did the same last weekend. saturday morning was the launching of our project with taiping zoo. there was also a community programme held in the zoo premise, in collaboration with the zoo's officers. my sister was our lens woman. she came with my parents that morning. that event also was featured in today's papers. besides that i also introduced my mom to dr kevin lazarus, the zoo director. my mom happily told dr kevin that she heard a lot about him on tv and papers hehe...

kuE's note: pic above was taken at the taiping zoo by my sister, edited by karl, le drôle de français ;) as featured in her flickr account. can you guess what was the pic all about?


both my kids were so happy that day joined together with the orphanage that we brought from changkat jering. megat was so excited when we planned to go for the night safari. at first we wanted to go on friday night but megat felt sleepy very early. so the next day (saturday) we extended our stay at seri malaysia. we were already tired by the time the event finished. we went back to the hotel for a quick shower. besides, who wants to go around the town with my uniform right lol. after we had our meal at mcD (upon kids request), i brought them to the museum. that was their first time. at least they learned so many things from the trip there.

instead of going back to the hotel, we went to air cool shop in kamunting. actually i've been longing to install this for my 4wd for months. then i thought since the company has a dealer in taiping too, why not right. i spent about RM700. at least now i don't have to worry about driving in the hot sun no more ;)

we went back to the hotel to get some rest. by the time i woke-up, it was about 7.30pm. megat was sleeping too. i managed to wake him up. unfortunately it was raining that night. so we decided to go to the night safari on some other time. its not strange as taiping is well-known as the wettest place on earth. then we decided to just go out for dinner. we went to doli and have her famous fried kway teow. so if you come over to taiping, make sure that you never missed this. its one of the famous in town.

hmm... finally... i guess i've already summed-up everything by now in all the three parts post. i hope that i didn't miss anything :D
