12 days only?

I love my kids....


12 days and counting......

The year has been good so far. It's not really mad and hectic like before but there are still plenty of things which does require a little bit of attention and improvements.Say... I did not make any resolutions this year. I don't always stick to it. So I figured why bother?

But,
I've changed my mind a week later. I have to try to shoot off from work on time, meaning 3.15pm sharp (4 days a week). One of the days will be spent to complete all my work and besides, in the contract, it only requires me to stay an additional 2 hours every week. Why the "fook" am I staying up so late till 5 plus in the afternoon each week when my working hours stops at 3.15pm everyday....goodness....LMAO

Anyway, January is a brand new term for everyone so loads of new children. We are all trying our Very best to settle the children down, "clear off" any signs of "separation anxiety attack"(lol!) and paperwork!

I have no problems with my class though. Back then, it was a rollercoaster ride for me. I had 15 in all and it's like a madhouse at times but the effort paid off when you see your children learning and giving their best when they are promoted to the next level. It gives me a truckloads of satisfaction...trust me. It's like seeing your own children growing up (even though I don't have one!)

I'm really blessed! You go like, "hey, I taught that kid before and he's so big now!"
Or when you have the teachers coming up to you and saying that, "hey he knows his stuff, you taught him before?" A word of thanks is all that's enough to make me a happy person.
I try to remain grounded, that's the most important essence in life. ..be noble, be wise, be modest, be humble....you have to stay grounded at times!

Oh well, counting down to Chinese New Year (not that I celebrate CNY)
5 DAYS OF LONGGGGGG HOLIDAYS during the CNY period. I have to get out of Singapore....have to get plenty of fresh air....say Cameron Highlands. LMAO...sounds boring but the air is fresh up there...I figured I need one.
