Hot hot Chinese New Year!

I'm melting here! My body never stayed more than 5 minutes free-of-sweat even just stepped out from bath! It's as if the whole house turned into sauna room (no air-cond here, sadly). Plus those hateful mossies who never seems to fear any repellants keep on buzzing my 2 little kids especially Xiang. My gastric is attacking me again. Besides that, I'm fine here ^_^

Anyway, my intention of posting is to wish everyone of my friends here a prosperous & a very happy Chinese New Year!

Qi (1y11m): My DNA report

Qi got this My DNA test for free when I enrolled her to the kindergarten. Last Saturday we got the report back as well as the counselling session.

In case if you ask, My DNA test is a dermatoglyphics code test, which based on 10 finger prints, which was said to be able to analyse one's innate capability; this includes the inborn learning style and brain function. (said to be 95% accurate)

In conclusion of Qi's report:

1. She is strong in logical analysis, speech, 3D dimension. (The counselor said that this means that her maths, science will be strong, she could do 3D designing and will be good in giving speech)

2. She is poor in sports involving both hands & both legs, doesn't appreciates art or pretty photos. (means that she can't dance, swim, draw well, definately not a good photographer and worse, will have bad taste in clothing! :( :( :(

3. Her chances of day dreaming and think-only-no-action is low. (well, I definately agree, coz when I speaks to her, she will immediately response and unlike her slow-motion brother!)

4. She's not a forgetful person. (funny is when the counselor said this, my husband whispered to me and said he difinately will score high marks in this coz he always seems to misplace things!)

5. She's be a practical person rather than emotional person - means will love $$$, won't like to hear those flowery-empty-promises ^_^

6. Main learning style (motive or thinking): Thinking type, likes to analyse & think.

7. Aided learning style (do, listen, see): Listening type, again mentioned that should expose her more to language and she'll be superb in that. So at the same time, speech will also hurt her most and the counselor asked us to especially careful when speaking to her.

The analysis tells that the most useful lessons for her will be mental arithmatics, maths & science games, language, public speaking.

It's good to get such report actually, not that we will 100% following it. I will still let her try those dance classes (ballet!!!) if possible, and if she fails then I know that it's the gene to blame (kekekeke...). I have been not so sure about mental arithmatics classes but now, think I will let Qi have a try and see.

Next is I wonder I should dig my purse and let Xiang do the test ... hmm, most probably will after this few weeks "battle" with him. I will write about the "battle" in my next one.
