Primary 1 admission for 2008

It's that the year again, where parents' heart beat faster; palms sweat etc..over whether their children get into the school they registered. For those who volunteer their service, they swear that it was all in vain. For those lucky ones, they say "heng ah.."

Next year will be my turn, ... already made up my mind to put her back in IJ(Katong). I'm very pessimistic about not getting in after volunteering to clean up the school, wash the toilet [okay, joking on this part] Oh goash! must call the school to write a letter that I'm a student blah blah right?

I decided to keep track this year.. so as to reassure myself that I've not made a wrong choice in not volunteering my service. (anyway it's too late liao).
