six.

i've decided to skip number 5 cuz i can't think of anything that would represent 5. so yeah... hehe.


i just realized that i haven't updated bout my tuition classes and considering that tmr will be my 6th class. i've decided to keep up with my numbers and update =)


so far, they have been good.
listening to what i say. doing what i ask.
and before every class, i expect the worse out of them.
mainly because i don't wanna feel depressed that they don't wanna listen.


in the beginning,
it took longer for me to get them to start doing the book report,
(book report is where they read a storybook then answer a few questions bout it. that's all)
but now..... it takes bout 30 mins for them to finish.
and mind u, on tuesday and thursday, it's an hour together (so it's okay. i think)
but on sunday, it's 1 hour each.
and what do i do when their done with the book report?
play and entertain them!
maybe u might say it's easy money
but i could be spending that time doing something much more productive.
don't u think?
no?
sigh.
i don't know.
she (Ms. Lee. which is the mother of the 2 kids that i'm teaching) wants me and him to continue teaching for another 3 years.
which in a sense is according to our plans.
then we can save money for four.
but but but...........
if this continues, (me having to "babysit" them)
i'm not sure whether i want this for another 3 years.
bah.
i don't know.
we'll see.

so yeah.
tmr i'll get my pay!
yes!
hopefully she'll remember.
and hopefully i'll remember.
hahaa.

photos.

i've decided that after a really really wordy post just now, i should post up some photos =)

he has been wanting to eat at this place for a million years.
it's called the steamboat village.
or something like that.
in ikano.
can't really remember the name.
bah.
i didn't really like it cuz of the smoke at my face.
but other than that,
he enjoyed it.

for the past 2 weeks,
i've been teaching in cradle roll.
guess who has been helping me with my crafts.
actually, he has been helping me alot over the years.
from rainbow jellies to palm leaves to need-to-cut-and-stick-double-sided-alot kinda crafts
like this

he was complaining and complaining while cutting this.
if u can see,
there's a yellow halo around "Jesus' hands"
and mind u, they have it there so that it is easier for children to cut around it.
he kept asking me
"u don't wanna cut around the halo? there's a reason why they put that halo u know? so that it's EASIER to cut!"
then i said
"yeah, easier for CHILDREN. and besides, it'll look nicer without the halo"

last sunday,
i did another difficult craft.
and he was there.
throughout the whole time.
cutting and pasting double sided together.
how sweet of him.

snowflake.
the place where we didn't have fate with.
until one fine day,
fate was with us.
haha.
pure nonsense huh.
=)
the place was nicer than what i imagined it to be.
thought it would be something like ktz.

after a million years,
we've cooked again.
but this time.
some parts of the sausage got burnt.
haha.
lack of practice.

this was super super cute.
couldn't resist it.
and since he needed it.
i get to buy it!
hmmm, wonder where is it now.

see how SUPER MINI it is
hehe

this was the reason why we needed it.
haha.
i wasn't THAT strong to destroy it.
it was weak.
i unbuckled my seat belt and it went straight for the lock.
what could i do.
it attracted each other.
hahah

chopped off it's head.

if u can see clearly,
the center of my last finger is a little purple and slightly swollen.
it's cuz of futsal last night,
i always pull the net to get abit of balance.
this time,
i pulled too hard, i think.
and gosh, was it painful.
i totally forgotten bout it until i was bathing this afternoon.
it was dark purple, thought it was gonna fall off or something.
but now,
it's just slightly purple and swollen.

four.

it's been a while since i've continued my numbers.
haha.
think it's time for me to continue it =)

we've planned,
we've decided.
not sure whether it'll work out.
but we're praying & hoping that it will.

it seems like it's gonna be a long time more.
but it felt like it was just months ago that i've gotten my driving license
and this year, it's my 4th year.
4 years of driving.
can u believe it?

so it should pass really fast again right?

but when it comes,
will we be able to escape what we feel now?
will it get worse as time goes on?
will this draw us closer to each other?
draw us closer to God?

true.
it's not something that we can choose.
but we have to be grateful right?
some people don't even have it.
we should be glad to have it.
but why don't we feel glad?
why don't we feel grateful?
but it is it that made him to be who he is now.
i'm grateful.
but somehow,
it's not enough.
i want it to be more.
to be better.
to be something that i'm familiar with.
to be a thing that the both of us think that it is an ideal, perfect it.
funny how sometimes we take advantage of what we have huh?
but this is a different story.
it is SO damn difficult.
i can't STAND it!
i don't know how much longer i can take it.

i don't even know whether i'm feeling numb bout it
or i just don't care bout it.
sigh.
i guess maybe i've learnt not to expect anything from it.
it doesn't hurt as much.
but i have a feeling that if i continue to think bout it,
it'll hurt.
it'll hurt pretty bad.
sigh.
think it's better that i don't think bout it.

indescribable.

today's theme on american idol was country.
some of them was nice and okay....
but i think danny gokey has won my heart yet again.
as he did ever since the starting of this season.
i'm so glad that i watched the auditions this time round.
usually i don't really enjoy the auditions.
but yet,
sometimes i do.
there's a mix feeling bout the auditions.
my only motivation for watching the auditions is to find someone that i hope will win the competition.
this time it's DANNY GOKEY.
my oh my.





i'm mesmerized not only cuz of his story that he brought together with him.
but also his voice.
the raspy, rough voice.
so the man!
the way he sang today was the best.
actually, he always sing the best.
in my opinion =)

***************************************

okay. let me move on to my other point of writing this post.
i've decided to try teaching.
not that i'm not doing it in cradle roll.
but this one is something more serious.
one that includes $$$

i'm definitely nervous bout what to expect.
i know that they're VERY VERY, indescribably, NAUGHTY!
therefore, i know what to expect in terms of what kinda children they are.
it's just that i don't know how to start teaching them.
as in....
i'm no english professional.
not studying english.
but.
the plus point is that i'm learning to be an early childhood teacher.
so....
it's time i put the theories to practice.
wait........
theories?
what theories?

ah!
this is beyond my comfort zone.
i hate this!

what if i don't have the patience?
what if after this, i realize that i've chosen the wrong career?
what if i teach them the wrong thing?
what if they don't listen to me & i lose my temper on them?
what if they don't like me & tmr is my first and last lesson with them?

bah!
i hate this!
i refuse to think bout this anymore.
just gonna put it all in God's hands.

Smithy Meets England Squad

haha.. found this clip from footytube.. if you're an England fan, ie: Beckham, Crouch, Terry, Lampard or James, they are all in it.. quite funny.. enjoy viewing..

never quite understand.

when i was younger, i've never been able to quite understand or grasp why certain people love and support a football club.

until now, i can't seem to understand it completely especially having a full-fledged liverpool fan as my boyfriend. how can one be so passionate about a football club that one would stay up all night just to watch a match or would dart straight to the computer to check the latest position, score, or news even before brushing one's teeth.

even though i enjoy playing futsal, (i must say.... i've gotten past the stand-at-the-side-of-the-court-and-be-terrified-by-boys-or-the-ball phase. okay. maybe sometimes i do. i'm terrified when ppl charge for the ball as if it's their heart that we're kicking) i still can't understand what's all the craze about.

maybe one day, one day the revelation will dawn on me. but for the time being, i'm CLUELESS. haha

every time we will have the same conversation when he tells me that he's staying up for a match.

"what will u get out of this?"
"if they win, will they give you some of the money they've earned? will they wear ur name on their back? do they even know who u are?"
"if they lose.....? can u go turn back time can get ur sleep?"
"i'll get to feel proud about liverpool especially when i talk to jared, eugene, edward, nickC, winson, or hua choon and ALL the MU fans"!

bah. when he says that and when it comes down to football, i know that once he's made up his mind, i can never change it. i'll let him have his moment of proudness. bah.

Glory glory who?

I'm just feeling really good watching the defeat of Manchester United by Liverpool yesterday night. Plus, it was at the home of Manchester United, feels even much better.

As Liverpool Football Club is supported by he and she, I would like to apologise to all Liverpool fans for making the wrong prediction for the match 0 - 2, it was so terribly wrong.. very sorry..

Instead, the final score was:

1 : 4

haha.. FOUR goals to one?! What a great score to keep you MU fans quiet for a while huh.. =)

I'm sorry for the humiliation Liverpool had done at Old Trafford in front of thousands of MU supporters and to Manchester United which include Alex Ferguson, Rooney, Ronaldo, Tevez, Ferdinand, just to name a few and especially to the hero for the match, Vidic.. =)

So, Still singing ah? Glory Glory who? Cannot hear one?

That's right, "you'll never walk alone"
