Ok...Safe and Sound back in Spore. Shall update about Terengganu another time.
Aniway, yest had a CNY party with the kids till 1pm. YES! We ended work at 1 after which I ended the day with Kak Mas, Jessica and Alicia at Seoul Garden. We ate from like 1plus all the way till 4! Chatted and laughed the whole time.
Went back after that and met Darlz at Clementi ard 7.30pm and spent quality time. =)
No matter how childish...
No matter how egoistic...
i may be. My heart belongs to you.
***********************************************************************
Cool or What? Our feelings wheels. Done by my children.
Now, I cant wait for the weekends..Time for Darlz!* Im praying hard for it to go through. Please give this to me. I want it so badly. If I dont, I seriously dont know how I am gonna face myself.
Application has been sent. Waiting for bated breath though chance is slim. *
Ciao.

Its Not Ok when you bite your own legs just because you wanted to remind yourself...
Its Not Ok when you didnt sleep the whole night coz you are afraid yet no one came to comfort you...
Its Not Ok when you say 'people of your skin'..
Its Not Ok when you kick yet u say 'i didnt use all my strength'..
Its Not Ok when you walked past me without asking permission..
Its Not Ok when you say 'What?' whenever I call...
Its Not Ok coz you are still a child.
Its Not Ok coz your my student and Im the teacher.
Its Not Ok..
I just want my children to be pleasant and polite. To respect others as much as they want respect. To learn the basics besides the academics. Am I asking too much? Or Am I just living in the past?
Just one thing..
'Hey Parents!! Have you forgotten your part? Or are career and money the only important thing now?'
*********************************************************************
Here are the curtains of my class..
Made by the children themselves....Damn proud of it..=)

Oklah...it was past Noor's Birthday. But Zal couldnt care less. He just wanted to surprise her. And Darlz and Me came to the rescue of course. =)
We decided upon buying 5 different slice cakes at secret recipe which was fantabulous btw. Why sliced? Well, there was no whole cake at Marina! Swensens does not provide steel knife. Andersens is either too small for the four of us or too big. And we are definitely not spending 58 bucks just for the cake. Thus, the slice cakes.
We then made our way to meet them. She was super shocked...and couldnt stop smiling. And there the confessions was made. Haha... Zal had to lie to her he was doing overtime when actually, he, Darlz and Ayim was getting gifts for her. Sweeettt...
The gifts given by Zal was a portrait of the two of them and an Adidas Watch that she wanted.
It was very simple yet im sure it touched her heart.
We headed for a movie soon after. 'The Haunting of Molly Hartley'
We headed for a movie soon after. 'The Haunting of Molly Hartley'
My thoughts on it? Plot is forgettable, casts are so-so. Luckily, there was still suspense.
Bottom line....Go watch another movie.
Some of the Pics for that day....
Zal & Nor & Prezzies..
Me & Noor & improvised cake =)
Darlz and Me..cant resist to take a pic too..
Noor and the portrait..."Zal should be born in a cartoon world. ;)"
Noor and the watch
The gifts..we managed to finished up the cakes okay...
Here goes the random pics..
My weekends were splendid. Next weekend will be the Terengganu trip with Darlz extended family. That will be a whole different ting altogether. Argh!! Nervous!!
Ok. Got to go back to work. Tata.

Gonna dedicate this post for moi family....
Yest, had a mini sabo-ing session with family to celebrate Fazli's and Hussein's birthday. It was super chaos at the playground across from Nenek's house.
Nobody and nothing was spared. Totally none. The aunties and uncles all got sabo-ed as well. And the things we used ranged from the usual flour and eggs to the birthday cake itself -which no one ate, oranges, packet drinks etc.
Who the heck came up with squashing oranges down people back, spraying others with packet drinks with the straw as the hose? Thanks to my own SIS. Humph...Goondu.
When we were done, played Blind Mice, climbing up and down the playground, ice and water and even The wolf and mother hen.
After that, we had to clean up the mess.Ayah went around picking up the orange peels while Umi picked up the lumps of cake......Duh, law-abiding citizens.
So here are some of our pics
The Birthday Boys..
Syed Hussein and Fazli
The So-NOT-birthday-girl-but-was-saboed-all-the-same
Adik and Me and Sabrina
The Cuzzies..
Us in cleaner times...at another gathering and chilling under the void-deck.
So you see...We are pretty close. There was a point of time whereby it was pretty hard to maintain the closeness.But eversince Abah was gone, everyone got even closer.
I love you people. Although you guys always always bully me!!
To Hussein and Fazli..Happy Birthday. Go for your dreams! Rule your life with your heart and mind. Never get Ego control you.
To Aqilah...God tests us only coz he noes we are strong enough to face it. The challenges put forth are only within our capabilities for he noes better. Be strong my dear and we will always be by your side.
To Helmy....ur calmness and deep-thinking are your assets that many do not have. Don't put it to waste.
To Rina.....Enjoyment is not everiting. You dont need to prove to others but yourself. Learn to differentiate between the good and bad.
To Is and Irfan...Speaking up for the truth does not mean you are rude. One day, you will soar with your own wings.
To Azam...There are gonna be alot of temptations when you grow older. Dont ever be influenced by others. Note that those who will always be by your side in difficult times are always your own family.
To Adik...What can I say more. Everyday and night, I pray for your happiness. I just hope that one day, you will understand why things are the way they are.
SO.....Sayonara!!

When you are at your best, sometimes u tend to forget your lowest.
Found out from Ibu yest that one of my uncle whom I called 'Ayah Besar' is getting pretty bad. He is suffering from cancer and has to go chemo but for the past three days, he was feeling pain all over. Aqilah, my closest cousin- his daughter, must be feeling pretty crushed right now. And me, honestly, I cant deal with any more heart pain due to sickness and death. We are still trying our best to hide away the pain of losing Abah especially during family gatherings. His presence is truly missed. Just a few days back when all of us were at Nenek's house, I almost asked Umi where Abah was. When reality hits, a huge lump formed in my throat and I choked back on my words. She simply said in a calm voice , "Idah lupa ke?" - You forgot? She then patted me on my head.
On the other hand,
My maternal grandparents are both now bed-ridden and is staying at Lok Heng- a kampung in Malaysia with my mother's eldest brother. When my mum visited them, me and my sis could not tag along as there was not enough space for us in the car. Mum said "Nenek betul2 nak jumpa kakak ngan adik. Dia kata bawaklah cucu2 aku datang sebelum aku takda."-Granny really wants to meet you both. She said, bring my granddaughters to meet me before Im gone.
Im not ready to lose anyone at the moment. Please give me time.
******************************************************************************
I value people who keeps to their words and stay true to them. Simply because you said it out of your own will.
Its very simple to win my heart and my loyalty will be to you guys always but if broken, i might never see you guys the same way again.
23:18:00 11 January 2009
Shame on 'you' ....
For 'you' have to eat..ooopss no....GOBBLE your own words up..

=)
Darlz....Had a great weekend with you and cant wait to mit you tomorrow...
You are my power dosage.
Have a great week everyone....

First and foremost, today was Mrs Quek last day. I wish her all the best in her future endeavours. She could have been the greatest partner that I could ever have but I guess we are just not meant to be partners. Gosh, saying this really makes me sad. Being her, she didnt want any farewells and as that was her wish, we didnt made one. She said farewells are sad and she wanted to leave happy. And so she did. No one knew when she did. She left without a gdbye.
OK. Im truly truly fond with both my classes. Love them to bits! The quiet ones, the out-spokens,the domineering ones, the followers. Every single one of them holds a special place in my heart. I never thought that your heart could hold so many 'love ones' at any one time but somehow, the more people you care, the greater the space to hold all of them in gets. (get it?)
Some of them said the sweetest ting to me just now which made me melt countless times...
Justin : Teacher, I wish I could give you a Valentine's Day card.
Me: You can, dear. You just have to make me one instead of buying for me.
J: Oh yah! Ok. Ill make it on Sunday.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shan Haris: (Suddenly came up to me)I like to come to school.
Me: Why?
S.H.: Because I can see you and sing songs
------------------------------------------------------------------
Heng Hui:Keep quiet everybody!! Teacher Idah don't like to feel angry!!Don't give her angry!!(part of our theme was feelings and we talked about it the day before)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Honestly, working with children are unpredictable all the time. Their actions and words can be so random...could be sweet..could be sad...could piss you off. But I love every single bit of it.
Of course there are trying times and the workload is huge especially with the two classes. And its no-brainer that the pay as a whole is quite low compared to other fields.
But fortunately for my dip, my pay is the same as any dip graduate in other fields.
Aniway, we had a meeting and it was agreed that the changes is doing more harm than good. So the vice-principal is looking into changing it back. If she does, we will all have our 1 hour break per session everyday. Which amounts to 2 hr break everyday to do our own work such as lesson planning, photocopying etc without having to stay back. Wooooohoooo!!
Oh yah...we did hand paintings for our 'curtains' and will upload the pics wen I can. stay tuned for it as its fanta-bulous!
***********************************************************************************
Happy 22nd Burstdae to NOOR!!
Moga panjang umur, murah rezeki.....
Noor & Zal( Ive no pic of her alone.OOoopsies..)
***********************************************************************************Darlz, you never fail to put a smile on my face. I love you.
Cant wait for our date!
**************************************************************************
Oh yeah.....before I forget....
Can you guys not be so thick-skinned?? Like ...hello!!
Ok..Sayonara.
20:19:00 07 January 2009
Its only Wednesday, 1st week and im so worn-out. Lots of changes had taken place at work. Tomorrow, we will have a meeting to voice out our views towards the new changes. Hopefully, our opinions will be heard and be taken into consideration.
On the other hand, I love both my classes!! Though each pose their own challenge, I had lotsa fun teaching them. Both classes are very vocal and more than a handful are very strong-headed. Its pretty funny hearing them settling issues between themselves.
2 funny incidents....*I shall try to tell more*
Incident 1
Lucas and Justin came from different K1 classes.Therefore, they are still trying to get to know one another.
Justin: Teacher, Nicholas banged into me.(Lucas was standing behind him)
Me: That is Lucas, not Nicholas.
Justin: (Looking puzzled) If he is Lucas, who is Nicholas? (Raised his voice and in a panic) Im NOT Nicholas.
I had to explain to Justin, there was no such Nicholas in our class.
Incident 2
I went out of the classroom to take my things.
When I walked in, I saw my class jumping up and down.
Me: Excuse me... Is this a Zoo??
If Im not around, that does not mean you can do as you wish. You are still suppose to sit quietly and whisper to your friend while waiting.
Bellerin(a girl) why are you jumping as such. What if you hurt yourself?
Zi Ling( who was seated at the back): Yar!! Like Jackie Chan!!
It was super duper random that I walked out of the class and laugh my ass off.
This are the things that keep me going. They brighten up my day. I need NO comedy. My children are comedians enough.
Darlz, I miss you so much. I cant wait to meet you...Thank you for understanding my work =)
15:29:00 04 January 2009
Ok...Back to work!!Had orientation on friday and it was super nerve-wrecking to talk to dozens of parents.
I felt like a chicken ready to be slaughtered. Thankfully, I knew what I wanted to say, my voice was in control and hopefully, I did portray the professionalism needed to pull it off.
Tomorrow will be back to school and I've managed to set my mind back to work. Phew!!
Just wonder how I'm gonna manage with the new changes especially the daily evaluation and photos. But I do know that I've got great colleagues and 2 close and bestest pals who knows how I really feel. They are educators themselves. Duhhh...
Aniways, after the orientation, went home and changed. Waited for Dinah and Naq to finish work before meeting them. They were all out for some retail therapy while I simply just wanted to tag along. BUT!! I ended up buying 4 work tops and a bloody red umbrella. Bought the umbrella just because it was red. Lame but what the heck! And shouted at them for psycho-ing me into buying. Whats with the "Buy lah! Its cheap" or "Eyh!! That's Nice!! Grab it!"
We were like piranhas in Cotton On @ Wisma.
After that 'vicious attack', did some chilling at Taka Garden.
In the toilet. Now guys noe...why gals take so long...
Dinah was so ffeeeelllinnng Martha Stewart!!
Dinah...Me...Naq...(Gone through so many ups and downs. Im glad we are back on track)
She took countless pics with this specs. In the 1st place, it wasnt even hers. Haha!
Naq and Norman (Glad you found someone who is worth your love. Treat him well.)
On the other hand...
There was this malay guy who was standing right beside the bra session. He looked barely 20.
There was this malay guy who was standing right beside the bra session. He looked barely 20.
Dinah: Eyh! Why he stand here..How am I gonna get the bra? So uncomfortable.
Me: You are uncomfy? What do you think he feel?
Dinah: Yah!! Haha!!
Me(with a super loud voice): Eyh!! Tu....Bra ***! Ur size!
At that moment, I could literally see the blood drained out from his face.
So guys!! Take note!
Dun ever be caught dead beside tonnes and tonnes of bra ALONE!
If you must, follow your girl along. At least that will be much better. It will seem as if you are giving your opinions to whats nice or not. And if you really do not want to follow your girl along, please stand outside the shop Ok? You will save yourself from embarassment. Believe me.
Dinah....We better go for the blood test as promised. I cant take this rashes anymore!
