Little Boy

Am I doing thigs right?

Sometimes, I can't help but wonder if what I am doing is good enough.
I struggle to be the perfectionist that I am, unfortunately.
I want this to go this way, and that to happen that way.
But it rarely ever happens.

In fact, the opposite does.
The classes you are so worried about turn out to fine. Great even!
The classes which you thought you were in control of, turned out to be horrendous....
Lesson: Just go into class with an open mind. Expect the worst but hope for the best.

On a little side note... hehehe. Sigh.
I scolded a little boy in my class today. He's about 4-5 years old.
He was being naughty till the extent his classmates couldn't take it.
He didn't like being scolded by me... haha.
He crossed his arms in front of himself, sat very straight on his stool and ignored me.
I ignored him too as I had to go through the lesson with the rest.

As the bell rang and the kids got ready to leave,
I took this little boy to the side and talked to him.
I told him,
"I'm going to see you tomorrow.
I am depending on you to behave and be good in class.
OK?"
Then I patted his head. He cried a bit earlier I think. Lol.

The kids leave to board their respective transport home.
This little boy takes the van.
As he prepared to come down the steps from first floor,
to where I was stationed on the ground floor,
he said loudly in a cheery voice,
"Bye bye aunty Kathleen!"

Sigh, little kids.
How can they not make your heart melt?
Even though they are little terrorisers at times...

To Mr. KT

This post is written in honour of (no, scratch that), is written with the objective to give someone a piece of my mind. (Want my cerebrum or medulla oblongata?) Firstly, this person complained that I did not update my blog often enough. Then he said, "Kenny Sia updates everyday." Yeah right, it's not everyday la Tai Kor! And why compare me to him? I'm so tiny and puny in the blogsphere. Heh. Anyway, I'm super busy and super tired and has had no inspiration whatsoever to blog about anything till today. (Thanks to somebody...) Before I go into the second part, for all those who have yet to hear about it, (it's been publicized in her FB), my sister, Eileen is now formally engaged to her sweetheart of six, seven years. Congrats to my dear dear sister. Finally, eh? Hahah. The second part is related to this. Not referring to my sis, but me. Our good friend who complained that I don't update often, had the gall/balls (Grr...) to 'insult' me. When I sh...

Of Vampires and Werewolves

I've never really been an ardent fan of the Twilight series(boo...says you). And I have no idea why some girls go gaga over Edward the vampire. He looks so paste-y with the bloodshot eyes (yea yea he's supposed to look that way). And bleah! I think he looked way hotter in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as Cedric Diggory . That, I can go gaga. But in Twilight??? The romance between Edward and Bella is fine. Romantic, mushy and cliched. Heh. But there's nothing much for me to shout about. (Sorry to the ardent fans, esp to my three sisters. Ha.) This year, the next sequel in this series is about to be released tentatively in November. Known as New Moon , the title is definitely appropriate since the werewolves play a bigger role this time. I didn't read any of the books in the Twilight series though my sisters finished the whole lot of it. So there's no doubt I have no idea of what's going on in the next book. But judging from this trailer of the next sequ...

My Future???

After thinking for a while, (ok, not a while but many whiles) I have finally decided what to do after I graduate (hopefully) in May this year. I have narrowed it down to two options. Sigh. Either I continue my studies and proceed wtih Masters (God, help me..) or I apply for this work and travel thing to US for six months. Will see how it goes... see which comes first. If it's the latter, I'd most probably miss my Convocation. If the former is first, the latter will no longer be on my list. We'll see we'll see. :) P/S: Applying for masters has nothing to do with what the government has allocated to help the economy.
