i saw my primary school form teacher today! and she rmbs me! she said, 'i remember you. yesyes. i remember you. Where are ur specs?' okay. so it's the last question that confirmed that she rmbed me. HAHA. and she said, 'your eyes are still big!' haha. so cute. the impression she left on me was a teacher who's motherly and loving. (:
tmr's the SAF thing. need to be up early. but i can't slp early tonight! i slept from 6+pm to 7.30am this morning. it was a looooooooooong sleep. now i can't slp. but no, im definitely not high now. im quite low. ok. lame.
ignatius told me this today while we were having lunch, 'dont you think we're very fortunate to be able to buy what we want to eat?' didn't think much about it at that moment. but i think it's really true.
u should listen to this mozart's variations on twinkle twinkle little star. the tone is really nice and it makes you feel happy and light hearted listening to it! (: oh! notice the pianist's facial expressions too.
teaching privately sometimes makes me feel like part of the family. when the parents talk to me about their worries / plans / share their joy about their child. esp when the parents say things like 'you've taught her for so long, you should know her character v well also'. haha. it's quite a nice, warm feeling somehow. like you're part of helping nurture the child to make him/her a better person. not just in terms of the subject ure teaching. n i actually get to know a little about what it's like to grow up in a rich family. or what it's like when u actually have a sibling. im glad that there're so many opportunities out there for me to experience teaching. every child i teach feels different. okay, im just really contented n motivated now. (:
anw, the calluses on my feet is getting worse! i feel like burning my skin n then just peel the whole thing off. it's damn pain.
I MANAGED TO PULL THROUGH TODAY! :D i was super tired on n off teaching. it wasn't as bad as i thought. luckily the parents were super nice and the students were quite adaptable to a new face n disgusting voice! phew-
my mother is crazy man. we saw this guan yin keychain. then i was like, "yay! guanyin is my godma" (okay, im random too.) then she was like "ya loh! see.. aiyo. then next time how. next time how u be catholic." okay. i think u dont get it. lol.
tmr is a see-jia-yi day! what more can i ask for on a holiday! :D
i think being a relief teacher is more pressurising than teaching ur own class. 1) u dont know the students (their learning pace n all) 2) they dont know u (what if i appear scary looking to them. lol!) 3) what if u cant fulfill what the teacher actually wanted to do n ruin her lesson. AHHHH. 4) ure being compared to their teacher, they might hate me. ):
BUT WHATEVER IT IS, i shall push all that negative thoughts aside! positive, positive, positive. be positive n you will nvr fail! tomorrow will be a good day! yesyes! :D
after reading shirlene's blog just now, i immediately smsed ignatius 'SHIRLENE THEY ALL WENT TO THE PERANAKAN MUSEUM, I ALSO WANT TO GO!!"
and then he kept insisting that i'll be bored! in 3 seconds some more!
but i want to see the things in xiao niang re!! OMG. I can still feel that xiao niang re craze inside me. hopefully the dunnowhat spiders show is going to be nice n going to be on youtube or smth cos i cant sit down in front of the tv for long.
so anyway, after insisting that i want to go so many times! (ok lah, it was only 3 or 4 times) HE AGREED! WOOO!!! (he said we'll go after SYF is over. hopefully i dont lose my interest by then)
reminds me of the water bottle incident. =x
i didnt know my neighbour still plays the piano. o.o i used to hear him/her play Pachabel's canon in D all the time last time. and then after that stop playing for super long. haha! ok. random.
TODAY'S AN EXCITING DAY!!! :D i can't wait for later. but i hope it doesnt come so soon also. need to finish my work!
wth. my mother tempted me to eat abalone just now! lol. havent ate abalone for super duper long. i realised, it's not that nice after all! =x cos it has that fishy taste. she say must eat more cos they're going to expire alr. since when people ask u to eat more abalone. LOL. anyway, im playing with the hula hoop while watching pages of treasure n then it's making me feel like puking! -.- i think other than skipping, pet society should let the pet play with a hula hoop. more fun n less tiring. HAHA.
YAY! i think my runny nose has recovered. it's damn irritating that whenever im eating, the mucus keeps dripping!!! ignatius claimed i blew a bubble when i was blowing my nose yest. -.-
but now....
ive this BIG RED BULGING spot on my face. i have no idea if it's a going-to-be-pimple/mosquito bite. im praying it's the latter. my mum asked me if a experienced/newbie mosquito bit me. damn lame!
okay, im going to continue watching my pages of treasures now! WOO! :D
aiyooo. i totally wasted my day today. woke up later than usual n still felt sleepy n lazy. didnt practise n went out alr. n i didnt even do what i planned to do cos i was just lazy the whole day. instead i kept eating. moral of the "story": staying home is good. once i go out i spend a lot of money eating. ):
im in a dilemma. dilemma. dilemma. dilemma. dilemma. dilemma. i think i use the word to easily. but im really in a dilemma. dilemma. dilemma.
I WOULD LIKE TO DECLARE MY <3 FOR FOUR LEAVES BREAD!
they're yummy, has quite a wide range of varieties, n cheap!
WOO! :D i love four leaves, i love four leaves, i love four leaves. unlike breadtalk which has cute looking bread but always have disgusting fillings inside like red bean. yucks. WOO! I LOVE FOUR LEAVES.
watched videos, practised, had lunch with mummy while watching tv (seldom eat with her nowadays), practised, tried to figure out notes for 'mr. sun', band. i realised although i get bored easily, i actually like routines. n i like songs that keep repeating the same theme over n over again. lol.
been listening to songs sung by Declan Galbraith. he's voice is so pure n clean! (not sure if that's how people would describe a voice. =x) but he sounds angelic!
i cant wait for tmr morning to come. i want to eat breakfast! so hungry. i feel like eating sausage mcmuffin!!!!
anw, that thought came to me again. 'how do u know ure matured.' so random i know. lol. but everytime i think about it the childish me cannot answer it. like how u know that thinking is actually matured. ok. im confusing myself. better not think too much. think too much will drive myself crazy.
i cant believe my exstudent added me on facebook. LOL.
went to botanic gardens to watch ignatius as planned. HAHAHA. he knew i wasnt listening but hearing sounds. =x i just kept looking around at little kids playing on the hill. they look so adorable! :D went to 'mr prata' after that. stupid ignatius ate my honey prata n then i stupidly ate his kaya prata. the whole meal just tasted bad lah. the kambing soup had soft muttons (LIKE EATING FATS), the kambing soup itself tasted like crap, the curry was salty, n yah. that's enough to make the meal taste bad.
Mr Sun - Barney LOL. THIS IS SO CUTE. oh mr sun, sun, mr golden sun. pls shine down on me. oh mr sun, sun, mr golden sun. hiding behind the tree. this little children are asking you. to pls come out so we can play with u. oh mr sun, sun, mr golden sun. pls shine down on me!
why are all nursery rhymes actually not v happy things. -.- the last time i read about jack n jill, i found out that it was about a king n queen being beheaded thus 'jack fell down n broke his crown n jill came tumbling after'.
now i just read this: "Humpty Dumpty was in fact believed to be a large cannon! It was used during the English Civil War ( 1642 - 1649) in the Siege of Colchester (13 Jun 1648 - 27 Aug 1648). A shot from a Parliamentary cannon succeeded in damaging the wall beneath Humpty Dumpty which caused the cannon to tumble to the ground. The Royalists, or Cavaliers, 'all the King's men' attempted to raise Humpty Dumpty on to another part of the wall. However, because the cannon , or Humpty Dumpty, was so heavy ' All the King's horses and all the King's men couldn't put Humpty together again!'
luckily my mum asked me to accompany them today. or else i'll most probably be just slping the whole day to compensate waking up super early the past few days.
i saw people at the bungee jumping thingy. I FEEL LIKE TRYING. looks exciting! haha.
i cant wait for tmr! im quite excited to teach. using my new teaching aids i prepared for thursday! woo! :D so exciting! i thought of trying out some stuff which i will only be preparing later. =x andand! after teaching, daddy will fetch me to botanic gardens! means, i'll be able to catch ignatius' performance isntead of just eating dinner w him n going home. WOO! :D so happy!
okay. ive thought through it. if i didnt pass my auditions (hopefully not. seriously, i hope i passed it.) i'll just have to try again the following year. it's not the end of the world. (:
my only worry is. i dont know when i should withdraw frm sch. and whether i should even withdraw!
im praying hard that everything will turn out fine. (: my mood has been quite extreme nowadays. if i dont think about this, im thinking about atcl, if im nt thinking about that, im thinking about pedagogy dip. i guess i really have bad time management!
praticuum is over! :D im so dumb lah. i thought my exam slot is at 9am so i ran all the way to the place. when i reached, the door was locked. n i thought i was going to be locked outside for being late. lol! in the end, i realised my slot is TEN am. but it was good also lah, at least i could get myself SLIGHTLY more mentally prepared. i think i mixed up my viva voce and praticuum timeslot. wah, i didnt know each person was only given 15mins to present. o.o i thought it was like an hour. n we had to present EVERYTHING for that 1 hr lesson plan. o.o some more i was super tired my mind wasnt thinking well n fast. at least it went ok... BUT for a moment i duno why i dunno how to sum up my lesson. (cos the bell rang, meaning i didnt have much time left.) so i was like 'okay, let's sing a goodbye song.' but i was thinking. 'shit. what does the goodbye song sound like.' wah. thank god my classmates helped me anyhow sing some crap out. LOL.
i tell you. one of the teachers is damn pro! she sings about ANYTHING in class. even just asking the children to put down their things gently. so cool. if only my voice is half as nice as hers! HAHA. er, more imptly, if only my mind can be half as creative as hers! anw, i told kenneth about this, then he said, 'she thinks she's mary poppins ah.' idiot.
im suppose to practise today lah. then i came back feeling VERY sleepy so i slept from 8.30 till 9. woke up. eat. revised my performance directions while i fill my empty stomach. n then it was 10 alr. AHHH. HOW TO DO WELL LIKE THAT TMR. ): crap.
omg. i think im going to get diabetes (choychoy). i ate two double choc chip cookies then my feet became damn pain. o.o maybe it needs to be amputated (choychoy). better pray i have enough insulin that is working in my body.
was really tired after i got to listen to my fav piano concerto. but it was really irritating to be disturbed by people coughing between EVERY single movement. and then i kept smelling nivea's lotion and mentoes cool chews. ahh. i dont like the thick nivea smell, it's quite irritating. after that i kinda forced myself to watch symphony no. 5 cos i was REALLY tired by then and i was sitting alone i was so afraid i might sleep. thank god i stayed though. even though most of the parts the sounds were just hitting my ear and bouncing off. LOL. it left me a very deep impression of the 2nd movement. the very lovely theme that keeps coming back. u should listen!
i know im a bit slow to be watching little nonya now. BUT IT'S SO NICE. now i understand why everybody was crazy over it. HAHA. i think jeanette aw is pretty!
suddenly i feel like eating the blackforest mcflurry again. it's tempting! i sacrificed my lunch just to eat it today okay! (cos i was only left with $3 and it's $2.70) i like the chocolate balls inside! and i love it when the gummy sticks to my teeth because i like eating hard stuff. YAY! :D
ahh. i feel jumpy now. but it's so late already, cannot make any noise at home.

ive often heard that preparing ur own meals can help save money. so..
i've been trying to search 'EASY recipes' on google. n apparently their 'EASY recipes' are still difficult to me. ): now im trying 'KIDS recipes' instead. but i keep seeing weird stuff like 'Little Piggys' or 'Pear sunrise' or just stuff that'll nvr be able to fill my stomach for lunch!
Ahhh. but idont want to cook cook. cos honestly, im afraid of switching on the fire. everytime we need to switch on the bunsen burner during lab sessions im freaking scared inside. -.- i hope i can find something as easy to make like a salad! but can fill my stomach.
HAHAHA. im supposed to study / practise after work. but then Macdonald's made me feel lazy (pushing the blame again).
this student came for a trial today. wah, even before her lesson started, her mum alr barged into the previous class to tell me about her. told me she's from nafa kindergarten ah, blah blah. from her tone n all, she seems like she has high hopes for her daughter as a musician. n she's joining my class from next week. stress (cos of her 'high hopes') o.o
i wanted to watch tchaikovsky's piano concerto no. 1 since last yr. but i waited till today then buy. GUESS HOW MUCH MY MISTAKE COSTS. $50. ): for such a poor person like me. sigh. plus must sit alone. so pathetic. ignatius is an idiot. buy the tic alr then he say, 'oh. u know on the same day, another orchestra is playing Brahms'? aiya, we should just buy 1 tic hoh. then u watch tchaikovsky then i watch brahms'. -.-
