boon's log 3910.01: Something that starts with a "T"

This week, Ab needed to bring something to school that starts with a "T". She wanted to bring "Tau-Yew" (Hokkien for Soy Sauce). IL and I laughed our heads off hearing that from our little girl.

This is the second week (or time) since the school started to ask the kiddos to bring something that starts with a particular alphabet - the first time, Ab brought an Axe to school (toy one, of course) when she was supposed to bring something that started with "A".

Anyways, for this time, we decided to let her bring the TM wired Telephone to school. IL said that most of the kids may not know what that is anymore - since most (if not all) people are already using mobile phones (or handphones - the colloquial term frequently used in Malaysia) or cordless phones today. This reminded me of stories of parents of bigger cities whose children have not seen a Chicken or Pig before... how sad.

IL was being cheeky (yeah, the Mom!) on the way to school, by suggesting Ab to stick out her Tongue when the teacher asks what she brought to school that starts with the letter "T". Aiyo!


boon out...
