a month and a little more.

as my title says, i've been working for a month plus now and it certainly doesn't feel like it. when i first started, everything was a blur. every teacher seems to know what to do and where to go.... everyone except me. i have 2 friends who's working at the same place, doing teaching practice as well and a few seniors who's now working there full time. i started later than my friends because i went for my awesome Melb trip =) heheheheh

in the beginning, i was dreading it. mainly because i would rather like to PLAY than work or study and also because.... school ends at 11.20 or 11.30 am. i officially finish work at 1.15 pm. there i was thinking, what am i gonna do until i finish work. the first few weeks, i didn't have much to do. i just help out with whatever i can. time still pass super fast but not as fast as it is now. it's unbelievable. literally, in a blink of an eye, school is over and i'm rushing to clean up the class and pack up. also, i have more work now. i'm preparing more stuff for class.

now, i can safely say that i'm definitely getting used to this. i've gotten used to the routine of it all. everything has changed. i didn't understand why everyone said studying is better than working. but now i get it. when you're studying, you can be lazy and skip class. but not when you're working. you can't be lazy and decide not to go to work... ESPECIALLY when you're a teacher. there is a benefit to working. THE PAY. on the other hand, studying has a different kind of stress. the assignments and exams. both of which i really hate. so actually both has its pros and cons to me. still on the fence bout this issue

also, currently i'm known as the "ah ma". he calls me ah ma because i sleep REALLY REALLY early now. the latest for me is 11 pm and that also i'm complaining that it's difficult to get up the next day hahaha so after i post this up and shooooo him home. ah ma is going to sleep =)

just the way you are.

it's been a while since we've updated. everyday i come here and i wish it's updated but i've been lazy. it's gonna be a month since i came back from Melb and also since i've started my teaching practice. the trip was so enjoyable that i didn't wanna go home but i have to....

i wanted to post up photos taken in Melb but i've decided not. too lazy. will find a day to post it in FB. this past week flew by so quickly. i was thinking back of what i've done so far and couldn't think of anything that was meaningful. i'm just lazing through the whole holiday. there's so many things that needs to be done but i'm just too lazy to do it. ah! this is bad... this is really really bad.

holiday is gonna end soon and i better get something done. i thought of making "to-do lists" but i'm not sure whether it'll work. i'll try it out tmr and we'll see how it goes. i've never written one before. haha!

so bout my teaching practice...... it has been tough and challenging. there are so many requirements and so many things to do that i'm starting to wonder whether i'm in the right place. but when i see the children, i know that i chose the right course just that i'm not sure whether i should be working in a kindy or rather this particular kindy that i'm in. oh wells. we'll see after my teaching practice.


i guess i'll just post up one photo. since it's my brother's birthday

happy birthday my dear brother
missing you =)
