For days, I have noticed Alycia’s novels in the bathroom. Once it was in the shower stall – on the ledge.   A few days ago, Cass fished out a wet novel from the bathroom floor which was wet! Boy was I enraged!! I think she fibbed about the part-time helper dropping it onto the floor, duh! Yesterday, my whistle blower ratted her che che out and tattletaled to me that her che che was reading story book while in the shower! I went WHAT?? How on earth did she shower and read at the same time? Cass then reenacted what her che che did by showing me how her che che stood with her back facing the shower head, with water hitting her back and she was holding her story book with hands stretched forward!  If she could have it her way, this book worm will do nothing but read her novels and comics and draw the whole day, even if she is to sit for an exam the next day. Her final exam will be in a few days’ time and she is still unperturbed and totally cool about it. What’s wrong with this girl? Is she not even worried that she will flop in the papers that she is weakest in? Or is she overly confident since she did pretty well in the previous 2 exams this year?

Perhaps she just wanna take a rest after revision daily? Mine was also very cool about it 😛 We did take her out to the park for some fun during exam week 🙂
Hi Shireen.
Have been a silent reader and stalking your blog for a year already. I was laughing loudly when you said she could shower+read at the same time by facing backwards with the shower head, and reading at the front, with her back “protecting” her book from the water splashing..
Hmm, I think I would be happy if my kid loves to read like your kid. But really, Alycia really loves reading until this extent, heh..
Barb, yeah, this girl of mine likes to take long breaks every 15 mins into doing revision *roll eyes* lol!
Louiz, thanks for stalking my blog haha! Dont worry, Alycia did not like to read until she was about 7YO+ Since then, there’s no stopping her. SHe reads everything now, even my Reader’s Digest 🙂
hahaha … reading while showering?! That’s new technique. Clap clap on her multi tasking skills. I so wish my children are a real bookworm like Alycia.
