22nd Nov (Sat)
Getting ready for her presentation. Printed out her thick materials.
Wah.... she's writing a movie script? Will the audience be bored?
25th Nov (Tue)
Sent her back to school for the last time during school hours. When was the last time I drove her to school? I think I will miss those days even though I had been complaining about the unpaid unappreciative response from her.
at 8.59am. Into the school for the last time as a full fledge ITE student. Not sure what her next academic path will be like ..

My last routine
For 2.5 years I’ve made this school run. Sometimes the man will help to drop her off in school while I sleep in a little later after waking up to pack her lunch for school.
Looking back at the lunches I packed for her on some days where she has to eat lunch in school. A few consolidated lunches link :
For the first 3 terms in Year 1, she eats in school. On some Thursdays I’d pack for her and then wait outside school for her.
On days when I don’t feel like going home / plan not to go back home my routine or just had errands to run / or when she has a short day and it makes no sense for me to head home so I chose to stay out. I'd drive to this nearest mall. I've stopped hanging out in PP after she left secondary school and now I'll stopped hanging out in EP.
Then there are days when she ends school late that I had to bring her dinner to the car (which means I had to finish cooking dinner earlier and then bring her portion out to let her eat on the journey home). Every minute is precious.
I never had the habit of eating breakfast unless I'm meeting friends or on days like this. My favourite place? KFC. And I love to hide in this section here where it is colder and quieter, until some mad man will make his walks and it's quite scary actually coz I'm usually alone in this section.
I thought someone told me they will end at 11am, I gave some allowance and reached her school 24mins past the hour. Took some pics of where I’d usually wait for her, the last school run (maybe). Can’t believe that routine idling by the roadside 4 days a week is over. 3 years has passed just like that!
She finally called (I was so hot in the car!) and got into the car at 12.17pm. Couldn't take a pic of her standing there waiting for me, got a weird angled video of the car dashboard and her though.
Last pic of her. No need for school uniform for her class. Presentation done, all relieved. Looking forward to graduation ceremony in February.
What’s her next journey? Hmmm……
