Of the coming new year & aqeef standard 1 expenses

Woh, its been soo long since i last wrote here and 2015 is coming to an end. Pheww time sure flies by really fast. Alhamdulillah i am now in my 36 weeks of pregnancy and due for csec for aqeef n adam's little brother on the 26th of january 2016. Hopefully everything goes well amin.. at the same time, i am finalizing my master's thesis to be submitted by the fourth of january to finally graduate inshaAllah.

And tomorrow's aqeef's 6th birthday. Yea! The day after tomorrow, we'll be sending him to his new primary school for his orientation day and on the 4th of jan he'll officially start his first year of primary school. I took leave starting today, the 29th to settle all his schooling matters and alhamdulillah managed to register him into sekolah agama in kota kemuning. Pheww so last minute but luckily still manage to score the last seat. Adoi. Thought it would be easy to enroll him in sekolah agama but apparently its not that easy ok. My mom went to 2 other schools but both were full and even though she begged them to allow aqeef to go there, they couldnt allow it cause its already over their students' limit, one class even had 44 students!😨😨 apparently there is no enough sekolah agama in selangor and the information system needs to be improved jugak kot. I actually googled online for list of sekolah agama in selangor but nada. Couldnt find any reliable site. Adoi.

Ok but then they told my mom to go to another school, nearer to our house and thankfully they still have a spot left when i went to ask them this morning. Rezeki aqeef. So i registered him then and there and they informed that the fees should be paid tomorrow. Ok. No problem there. Then i realized one more thing, still havent purchased aqeef's uniform for sekolah agama. Erkkk. Ok so off we went to get aqeef's uniform in plaza alam sentral. They have a canggih shop there situated at level 1 and its a one stop center for all kinds of school uniforms. And its relatively cheap too.

In november, aqeef had to go through his standard one's class placement exam and since we received the letter 2 days before the actual date, and the school required him to wear full uniform, we went to professor shop in shah alam mall to buy his first full set of uniforms. And it cost us rm100 for a set of primary school's pants and shirt.😱😱😱 mahal ok. After we went to canggih only we know that the price is ridiculous there. Haha. Nasib baik tak belasah beli 5 set skali. Kahkah.

So here is the total rough expenditure of putting aqeef into standard one. A reference for me , kot2 tahun depan GST dah jadi 20% ke. Boleh refer and meroyan. Haha. I dont know whether this is the normal range of expenses as this is our first time but it is definitely cheaper than putting him into kindergarten. Kahkah.

1. Full set of uniforms from professor - rm100
2. White shirts (sekolah kebangsaan) - rm 24.50 x 2 = rm49
3. Blue pants (sekolah kebangsaan) - rm 33.90 x 2 = rm67.8
4. Baju melayu (sekolah agama) - rm27.50 x 3 = rm82.5
5. White pants (sekolah agama) - rm 23.90 x 3 = rm82.5
6. Green sampin - rm19.90 x 2 = rm38.80
7. Singlets - rm8 x 3 = rm24
8. Full sports attire  - rm30 x 3 = rm90
9. School schoes, socks & belt = rm100
10. Primary school's books and fees = rm 210
11. Sekolah agama's books and fees = rm220

In total, we spent around rm1054.30. This is excluding aqeef's school bag sponsored by his mak long azira (thank u mak long!) and countless stationery, bottle water and colouring pencils.😒😒😒 adoi. Adalah additional rm300 easily kot. And oh label maker (rm100 ada offer kat popular) cause mama tak larat tulis nama kat buku. Nama panjang sgt nak oi. Haha

Thankfully nowadays all the text books are subsidized by the government means we get in on loan and needs to be returned by year end. We only need to buy buku rampaian and so on je for both sekolah agama and sekolah kebangsaan. Hmm. Dont know whether we went overboard with his expenditure, ke tak cukup kan. We'll know for sure when he starts schooling officially nanti kot. There is always the first time for everything kan. InshaAllah ok lah semua.

And yg kelakar, i took leave starting today cause i thought his orientation day is on the 30th but no no, i wrongly read the date and its actually on the 31st T-T. Takpelah, get to rest kejap sehari. Huhu.

Ok thats all so far. Til next time.
