New arrangements for 2007!

The year 2006 has passed and it is a year of change, hope and improvement. It has paid off well as in year 2007, i am stepping up a new level and awaiting to learn more things.

Montessori is more of a teaching method and i am glad that i will be teaching more in year 2007. I have been appointed to teach in K1 in the morning session and N2 in the afternoon session. That simply means no more toilet training, no more changing of diaper, no more making of milk, no more pulling and packing of mattress and patting the young ones to sleep, less of wiping ass, less of washing up hopefully, and less of endless chasing sessions of kids! Noticed that i have roughly sum up teh duties of a nanny? Ha Ha Ha, and that is me!!

More of academic means more of serious montessori teaching to do. And also more of children's conflicts to handle as they are more vocal in this level. No more physcially tire out but is mentally tire out this time. No more kiddish voice and easily satisfied kids just by singing songs and nursery rhymes. Pros and Cons yeah!

December is also a busy month for me. I have been busy scheduling my calendar AFTER MY EXAM as i have lots of lots and lots of exciting programs for me!! ;) Eg. Xmas party with friends, xmas party with boss and colleagues, xmas chalet, year end tour, leisure outing at a club. Woo Woo....i love being so busy and occupied with fun events and people! *shake my bom bom*

Concert is over!!! YeaH!!!

Yesterday, i have taken a huge load off my shoulder! When my friends are enjoying the concert, i am busy behind the stage managing my students. Luckily, the waiting time for the performance is not very long so my students did not ended up too restless. Although a few of them keep going in the toilet and touch the rubbish bin (cause there is a toilet inside our dressing room). A student kept crying and some of the teachers are busy pacifying her as her cries are very loud. A loud of stress and sweat behind the screens!

When finally the stage manager call my group to standby, i am so nervous as i am scared that i could not find the correct way out to the audience seat to prompt the children. I quickly lead my students (behind the curtain) to their position and rush off to find the way out. Stupidly, the exit is taped by masking tape!! I quickly just tear them apart and find the stairs down. While i am prompting the children, my boss turned around and "warn" me two times that i pointed my fingers too high up and i might block the people that are filming behind. My students danced better when they are in the class. Perhaps when the curtain are open and they see such a huge group of people, they feel shocked. But anyway, they still did a good job! :) Proud of my darlings! :)

After all my duties are done, i went to join my friends upstairs to see the performance. The supporters i have with me are Phyllis and her boy, Huiling,May and Terence. Shuyun could not make in at the last minute as she is still down with chicken pox virus. But am still glad that they come and support me! May is so nice to record down the video of my students and it is on her blog. (Please clcik on may on my side navigation)

My name tag


Me and my supporters!!! HA HA!




I am real glad that we can go back to the normal academic routine now..No more devilish training from me!! Yes, all the teachers comment that i am a devil trainer!! Ha Ha!

I need to SLEEP~

After you read how i spent my weekends, you must be amazed at how i can be so awake now!!

On friday,went to take my last practical test (YEAHOO!)at MMI and meet huiling and her friend for a tarot card session. It was fun as we meet up for a cozy talk at teahouse near tanjong pagar.It was fun seeing how the cards are read.After that, i call up ying and she call me to join her friends which i rush over to clarke quay and it is already 10plus. She was with a big group of friends and they are having real funny and "strictly-for-leisure" topics. All i do is laugh along as the guys were being badly interrogated by a series of unconstructive questions. One of the girls actualy ask the guys to say out their opinion of everyone of us and i find this quite dumb. Their answer for mine is "Look quiet but actually can talk". We end our session at about 1 plus to 2 am and after that, me, ying and ling continue on for our chatting session. We went to sit near MOS and 2 separate guys approach our tables with rude attitudes. They just sit down and want us to talk with them. Both are foreigners. We just ignore and continue our chat. When it is about 4am plus, we headed off to MacDonalds and had our breakfast. After that, we take the first train home.

After i settled down to sleep, it is already 8am and i need to wake up at 1pm to go MMI again to submit my exam results. So i just have less than 4 hours sleep as i am contsantly disturbed by calls. Left home at about 3 plus pm and meet Ying and her group of friends at 5pm plus for a crab feast. It was at Still Road and their crabs are fanstatic! Delicious! Finger licking good!! Yum Yum! 15 people squeezed into 3 cars and we headed off to PartyWorld for a mad KTV session till 11.30pm. When i am ready to sleep, it is already 1 am and i need to wake up later again at 6.30am!!!!

Off to melissa's prison officer family day!!! Reach Pagawan Beach at Sentosa at 9 plus am and saw her squad mates.They are a friendly bunch of people!! After standing under the hot sun, make our way to Bishan to meet ying's gang again to celebrate Melissa's birthday. At a funny chat with the girls plus ALWAYS SHY jimmy chow and finally at 8pm, i reached home and REST!!!!!!

Very Tired Now. A tired girl is a blur girl. I wish i can sleep for 1 whole day. It is busy but i get to know a lot of friendly people! My student's concert is coming soon, is at 18 Nov! May,Shuyun and Phyllis, please get ready your camera to shoot the cute children. See ya there! ;)

Bussyy Buzzyyy

Have an eventful saturday when i wake up around 10am in the morning to get ready for my nephew, Benjamin's violin concert. My primary 2 nephew has indeed grow very tall! Look at the boy beside him,he is primary four and yet he is shorter than ben. Or should i say that ah ben is tall? Hee Hee!



He is quite nervous over the concert and when it is his turn, he has a sad face on when playing the tune. Very cute! Nevetheless, he has done a good job with his parthner and they pull up a nice performance.





After crowding around the squeezy place (only 2 pathetic rows of bench for a concert where there are more than 50 people around!), my mother and i get back home. I started to change and get ready to set off to jessie's housewarming party! It was fun and we fill up our tummy with cakes when celebrating angie and meredith's birthday too.







After that, we join their suvec car gang and went offroad with them. As there are more than enough cars, we girls each took a car to enjoy this experience. My new friend cum "driver" is a nice and friendly malay guy. As his car has four wheels all moving, our car did not get stuck in the sand at all. It was a BUmmmPPPy yet fun experience! They are going to a more exciting offroad trip this coming saturday but sadly, i cannot join. :(

Joyce (Jessie's friend)get me a birthday present while she and her boyfriend went off for a vacation. It is real nice of her but her gift is..............



She bought it as when she look at it, she say "Oh, it remind me of someone!". Her boyfriend reply "Carole!" "Yeah!" she laughed and agreed too. And so, she bought this doll for me as my birthday gift. SAD SIA!!! Sob Sob!!! WHy could such an ugly doll resembles me? But it was cute looking and funny!

Reach home around 2pm plus and is real tired now! *streTch* but it was fun!
