Books to Read

What did we get from Ahoy. I piled up the books and the real culprit was Fiz. She just finished her Mock Exam so she wanted to go back to her normal routine - reading anything especially not related to school work!

Time really has gone very fast. Now were are into the third week of the year. Things are really picking up in the office. The kids are also now back to their normal routine with homeworks. Although admittedly the amount of homeworks here is nothing compared to what their friend and cousins back home have to do. We are not sure whether that is good or not. But looking at exam results back home, they are quite a lot of students getting really good results. And parents are also becoming very competitive - sending their kids to extra classes and so on. We don't have the option here. We have to provide guidance and spend a large amount of our time to help with their work. But it's also refreshing to be really involved in the kid's education and development rather than wholly leaving it to teachers and tutors.

One thing that we found is quite pleasing is the increasing number of people that we know pursuing further education onto MBA and PhD. We really praise them for having such amazing drive.
