  • 1st Birthday

    I celebrated my 1st birthday at my grandparents house. At that time I was too small to understand what birthdays were and why they were celebrated in this manner. As I grew up I realized that every birthday you had, you would be one year older each time.
  • 1st School

    My first preschool. First friends, teachers, experiences etc. School can affect ones life a lot because most of the people we meet makes who we are and school is the thing we can first begin with. This might change your attitude towards teachers, friends etc.
  • 5th Birthday

    In india, 5th birthdays are celebrated in a grand way. My 5th birthday was celebrated in a huge hall where 100’s of people were invited. I had never known that 5th birthdays were a major part of your life, so when I was told that I would be dressed in long dress with with ots of makeup on, made me feel too excited. This made me realize that it is a culture in India that 5th birthdays should be huge and well prepared.
  • A year without my parents.

    A year without my parents.
    Stayed a year with my grandparents and went to school in India while my parents were working in Malaysia. This was a real change in my life when I had to stay a year without my parents. But it wasnt a bad experience as it allowed me feel how it is to live without parents. Many people in the world have no parents and yet they are happy in their lives, and we having all the needs are still finding something to make it better.
  • 1st school in Malaysia

    1st school in Malaysia
    Back in Malaysia, shifted to KL from Penang and got an admission in Sri Garden International School. I had never studied in a different coutry other than India before. When I first went to Sri Garden, everything seemed so different. It took me a while to adjust but finally settled to the environment there. I came across two new languages, Malay and Mandarin. This way, I delevloped a bit of knowledge in Geography of Malaysia, where they spoke Malay and Chinese etc.
