Potluck 2011

Well, this is a back dated post.
The potluck for our school happened on end of Nov and the next day after potluck is progress review with parents, just like previous years.

This time, mommy baked some mini cupcakes for us. Mommy passed the camera to teacher and asked to take some photos during the potluck.

Not only party, this day is also prize presenting day for Academic and Reading Awards.

Mommy also help me to prepare these goodies bag for my friends.

There is no sweets, no snacks inside. This round we put photos inside.

Those photo been taken during the Music Video recording the other day were all printed out and give to each of my friends accordingly.

I got 2 trophies for this year, 1 for Academic and 1 for Reading.

The 2 trophies are now added on to my trophy collection.

A week before, it was prize presentation for coloring contest & writing contest.

I didn't get any trophy on that day and I cried in the school.

Teacher informed papa about this when he came to fetch me home.

Teacher said I have put too much pressure on myself and ask mommy & papa to have counseling session with me.

Mommy knows I will cry if I didn't get the trophy as this is not the first time.

Mommy did advise me that we won't always be the winner for all the competitions, and mommy never scold me if I failed to get any of the trophy. But I just can't hold my tears when the moment comes.

It's not easy, right? Especially for my age. Not easy for me to understand all this complication, to me it's complicated.

I just want the trophy, why can't I?

Not easy for mommy to advise me or counseling as I may not fully understand.

One thing mommy feel release was: I know to take action to improve myself, though it's the wrong direction :p

Teacher told us story about the girl that won 3 trophies for coloring & writing contest. She is a fullday student and she very hardworking study / writing during fullday. Not like some of the kids, they just spent their time playing, watching TV...

After listened to this story, I told mommy I want to go fullday in December. At first, mommy also wonder why I want to go fullday as after that 1 month experience, I don't like to eat the meal prepared by school. I don't want to go fullday.

But this time, it's requested by me to go for fullday, kind of surprise to mommy.

After few times question by mommy, this is the answer I gave to mommy : Fullday can get many trophies mah....

LOL!
