22nd August, 2009 - School holiday just started. Been a while since I took the kids for a holiday, so this time round, we took a short one up to Cameron! Got a real bargain from a client, had the whole 3 room apartment to ourselves, just the 8 of us, so all had plenty of comfortable space and room.
All the kids were given RM50 as pocket money and well, only 1 catch, that is for each of them to keep tab of their spending and note them down in a piece of paper. Of course, the kids were thrilled as they plan how they want to spend their money. For a start, they wanted KFC for lunch (oh yeah, of all things!!!), so they were excited as they browse through the menu and made their choices.
On occasions, the boys even started trading their money for interest woh... and during the pasar malam spree where the hawkers offer buy 2 free 1 kind of bargain, the boys calculated and figured it is better to take the offer and then sell the extra one to the other siblings at a small profit! Oh my, it's rather exciting to see how these young punks deal with money!
The other unforgettable memory : we were at the Sg Palas Boh plantation and for the first time in the kids' life, they sat on the tea trees with their feet off the ground. In fact, they also lied down on those trees with protruding branches on their backs ... he he he ... thanks to Odelia's ingenuity lor ... ha ha ha
