Through my eyes

My dad brought me to the park for a long walk. He told me that we are going for Terry Fox Run this coming weekend. It’s going to be held in Lake Garden Kuala Lumpur on Sunday, 4th November at 9AM. We are going to be there for the Run.

So, we have to practise for the walk. He told me that neither mum nor himself will be carrying me thoughout the Terry Fox Run. Last year, i turned the Terry Fox Run into Terry Fox Walk for my parents. I made them carry me the whole distance. Pity my mum. My dad spend most of his time taking pictures of my mum carrying me.

I am going to get the Terry Fox Run t-shirt again. It look very nice with the picture of Terry Fox running across Canada. This is the nice t-shirt…..

And it cost only RM25. You can get it by registering here

You can see the pictures of our Terry Fox Walk last year here….

You can see more of the pictures my dad took during last year’s Terry Fox Run 2006

Last night, my mum told me she had to go to Singapore for a day trip. She told me Singapore is where my cousin Tiffany lived. We have been there last year to visit cousin Tiffany, Singapore Zoo and Sentosa.

This morning, we woke up earlier and we were already at my aunt’s place at 7AM. They left me there for my uncle to send me to school. They left my aunt’s place immediately because my dad wanted to send my mum to airport.

I wondered if they will go for work and not return for a long time again. I started to cry at my aunt’s place. I continued crying when I was in school. I did not stop crying after I return from school. I only stopped when my dad came to see my in the evening. I was so relieved seeing my dad. I know they were not leaving me behind again.

I asked my dad to bring me home immediately. I don’t want to stay at my aunt’s place. He did just that. I wouldn’t let him go for even a second. I wouldn’t even let him change his office attire. We just watched the movie together at home until my mum came home at 9PM.

This morning, my aunt told me that my mum and dad will come back home after my school today. I was very excited and kept thinking of them when I was in school

After I came back from school, I asked my autn if they are back. She said not yet. They will arrive very soon. Finally at 3PM,  my mum and dad came back home. They came to my aunt’s house directly to see me. After awhile, they brought me home to rest.

At home, my mum took out a small present for me from Egypt. It’s the headgear for a belly dance. It looks good on me.

Today is my montessori school concert day. I was excited about it. I get to wear the nice dress that my teachers prepared for me.

After returning from music class, I quickly took my lunch and prepare for the concert. I had my bath and my aunt helped me to dress up. Then, my uncle drove us to the SEGI College for the concert.

During the concert, while waiting for my turn to perform, I was so tired. I went to for ballet and music classes earlier today.

Finally, my turn came. My friends and I went out to the stage to perform. We sang the songs and did the dance our teachers taught us. We enjoyed ourselves. My uncle brought a camcorder to tape my performance for my mum and dad to watch when they return home.

My parents have been calling me everyday at around 8PM everyday. But, that’s my dinner time. They told me that they missed me. I asked when will they come home. I also asked if they will come for my school concert.

I miss my mummy and daddy and also, I want to go home to pkay my computer games.

My montessori school is having their concert at SEGI College on Saturday, 6th Oct at 3PM. On this day, I have my usual ballet and Yamaha music classes in the morning. I will be so tired when it comes to 3PM. My mum asked me to skip ballet class so that I have enough rest when it comes to concert time.

In school, we learned three songs for the concert. One ofthem is Do-Re-Mi which I am familiar with after watching ‘Sound of Music‘ with my dad. I practised the three songs in shcool everyday. Sometimes I sang at home and my dad was very happy to hear me singing these songs.

Tomorrow, we will have to go to SEGI College for rehearsals for two days. I will follow my friend’s mum to SEGI College for these rehearsals.

Finally, mum and dad told me that they will be leaving for work tonite. A taxi will come and fetch them at 10PM. I saw mum packed their clothes into two luggages over the weekend. Dad was charging batteries of his camera, videocam and mobile harddisk.

We had dinner together at my aunt’s place. They sat down and talked to me about having to behave myself, take my meals and do my homework when they are not around. They promised to call everynight to speak to me.

At 10PM, the taxi arrived. I kissed them goodbye. Then, the taxi left to bring them to the airport.

My mum and dad told me they will be going away for work next week for 10 days. I will be staying with my aunt when they are away. They just told me that they will be going away for work and won’t be back for the next 10 days starting from next Monday. They asked me to behave myself when I stayed with my aunt. I have to make sure that I do my homework and take my meals everyday.

Without them knowing, I overheard them mentioning about going to Egypt. Are they going to Egypt for work? Where is Egypt? I know they will send me a postcard whenever they are away for work. I shall wait for the postcard from them.

All the excitement of parties and presents are over. Mum told me that I have to wait for another year before I can celebrate my brithday. Well, I don’t really understand what is one year. She told me one year has 12 months. Still I cannot comprehend this. Then she said, it’s 365 days. Now I understand but it’s a long way to go before I can celebrate my birthday again.

Today is my 5th birthday. My parents wished me ‘Happy Birthday’ and sang ‘Happy Birthday’ song when I woked up in the morning. They told me that I already had my birthday parties in school and at home, so there will be no party today.

But, they offered to bring me to McDonalds for my favorite Happy Meal. I declined as I will be going to my friend, Jolene, birthday party in the afternoon.

My parents dropped me off at Jolene’s place for her kids birthday party. Only kids were invited. So, all parents dropped their kids at Jolene’s place.

We sang ‘Happy Birthday’ song for Jolene and she blew the candles and cut her birthday cake. Her mum gave us so much food and drinks to eat. Then, it was play time. We played a few games and fun time.

In the evening, my parents came to fetch me home.
