Sandra .... the one who homeschooled her girl?

Yes.... so I am back to the " expat" socialisation here. We got to known by names , husband' names or nationality,  by our living area or face features ( X the one with glasses, L the one that lives in PPP compound, K that married to the Japanese and so on)... but I think... now I will be known by Sandra the one that homeshooled her girl. ^_^

I see it as a positive sign. I knew that sometimes I am known by : S the Indonesian lady, S that married to the chef or to the Italian, or S that lives in bla bla bla..... and I just add one more title to  my self. And I think I like it ! ;)

So far, the reactions I got is turning to be positive. Some will asked me what is the schedule  or where do I get the curriculum from, and some said that is great because we can have vacation any time we want, no need to be fixed by the school holidays.

Some will be concern about the socialisation. But I said, in general case, HS kids won't have social problem, as they are easily adapted  to any situation and pretty easy to mix with children from different background and school. And also most of the HS kids will be more mature in the socialization because they spent more time with adults .

Indy is still at the very early stage, but so far, I've got a lot of compliments from people about her. Mostly are for her manners and independence, but also for her friendlines towards other kids. Her Mandarin tutor mentioned that she is very friendly and fun to be with and is a fast learner too. And she can concentrate during lesson compared to other kids ( that need to be reprimand every now and then to sit on the table to finish the workbook)

Even Maya got some compliments too because she behave good during Church service and during lunch :P

Adios for now
