Today I wore a blue Indian pubjabe suit and contact lens. Sometimes we can really tell how observant kids are. I had quite a few students asking me what happened to my spectacles the moment they saw me. One innocently asked me whether I can see or not. Then his friend told him excitedly that I must be wearing contact lens.

Then one child asked me why I was not wearing "China clothing" but instead I'm wearing a "Malay costume". Hmm, I think he is having some "culture identity crisis" perhaps. I'm glad that many of the children of 1G wore their traditional costumes. Perhaps we can have a fashion show and explanation in class if time permits.


While we were walking back to class in the morning, a child said that I am Beibei, because Beibei is blue in colour, and that she is Huanhuan since she is in red traditional costume. The innocence of children... I think I should be thankful that she remembers the olympics mascot. =)
