Aisara Graduation Ceremony 2019

Aisara will be Standard One next year 2020, so this year will be her last Dzuliman graduation ceremony. Her class perform an arabic dance with Nour El Chams as the background music. She told us that the song is her secret. It will only be revealed during the ceremony. She didn't know that she just spilled the beans. I did my part by reminding everyone NOT TO disclose Nour El Chams as the background music.

In preschool ceremony, I think all kids got something to bring back home. Aisara got Best Hafazan. She also got Special Khalifah. Kinda like the best student in school. That came as a surprise, particularly me. This is because she is always late to school. I am sure that if there is an award the highest number of coming late to school, Aisara could have won. Fortunately, there is no such award. Anyway, she was in front of the dance pack. The teachers wanted her to do the introduce the group and performance which I am quite proud to see.

You did good Aisara.We all love you Biskut.

Penang Trip 9-10 November 2019

9th November

We all went to Penang on Saturday for a one night trip. It was actually Aisara's school trip. We kind of like tagging along. Aisara took the bus and we drove ourselves to all the stops. The first stop was Entopia Penang Butterfly Farm. We were like contemplating whether should we wait outside at the parking lot or we just go inside and enjoy the park. I decided to go inside and enjoy the park. It is a butterfly park. Not some aquarium or a zoo. And it was worth it. The ticket was quite expensive to me but worth it. Very educational for the kids. It turns out the butterfly park also has other cold-blooded animals like scorpions, frogs, cockroaches, spiders, centipedes, millipedes, geckos, lizards and others. I saw only one snake and one turtle. We spent around 3 hours at the park but it was fun. We even got to release newly formed butterflies.

Our next stop was Beryl's Chocolate Story at Lovers Lane. The chocolate tastes really good. We did chocolate shopping and learn a little bit about chocolate. If you are into chocolates, this is the place.

Our next stop is the Batu Maung Aquarium. We waited Aisara at the parking lot. We were just too tired to do another walkabout. After the aquarium tour was over, we checked into to Travelodge Hotel in Georgetown. Not exactly the best hotel. The breakfast was terrible. We booked the family room and it was quite spacious and the price is acceptable. 

10th November

One of our favorite places to go is the Armenian Street. We just love that place especially the Cats and Dogs shop. Well, we love cats. In Armenian Street, you can really feel that old colonial vibe to it. Not to forget the murals as well. That is why it look so cool.
