Stress!!

STRESS!! STRESS!! STRESS!!

I'm under tremendous stress recently!!

Assignment due on 15th Jan but I've yet to read thru the notes..
Left with ONLY 4 days to complete.. -_-"""""
Stupid questions!!

(1) What is Quality in Early Childhood Education?
(2) How are going to implement it?

MY GOODNESS~!!
Tons of notes lying on the table & floor waiting for me to lay my hands & eyes on them.. lolx!!
Where & how am i going to start??
Blame myself for being a LAZY PIG during the December sch holiday la!! *SLAP*

Work in school has NEVER EVER been soooooooooo freaking TIRED!!!
I was dead beat whenever I reached home..
I've been grumbling to Mummy & Dear almost EVERYDAY!!

Haa!! WHY?? WHY?? WHY??

Its all because..............................

I HAVE A FREAKING LOUSY ASSISTANT~!!!!!!!!!!!

SHE'S GIVING ME HELL LOTS OF PROBLEMS & HEADACHE~!!!

I may be MEAN to say all these... BUT!!

SHE'S REALLY DRIVING ME CRAZY~!!!!!

I cant depend much on her..
I need to keep telling her what to do... She's not 自动!!!
My kids won't go to her when they cry..
They will cling onto me and I can't start my lesson..
She can't carry them when they cry..
She can't even push things for me..
She's not ALERT..
She's very very slow..

I'm not the only one who feel this way about her..
Cos I have parents coming to tell me THESE too!!!
Telling me that their kids will not go to her when they cry..
They need me to be around in class..
Telling me she's slow..
Noticed that I need to direct & tell her what to do..

WORST PART..........
She can't even follow SIMPLE instructions!!!

ARGH~!!!

Did painting today..
Got her to wash the cloth & containers for me..
Guess what she said?

Assistant : Huh?? Need to soak overnight to get rid of the stain leh..

Me : WHAT?? Its ok just wash it will do..

Assistant : Errrrr... Why not throw away the cloth??

Me : WHAT?? Throw the cloth? Throw the cloth whenever we finish painting?? U know I had a hard time to find these cloth??

Assistant : Nvm.. I will bring from home..

Me : Haa... (I dunno whether to laugh or cry) Its ok.... All i need u to do is to wash.. To rinse the cloth.. U DUN HAVE TO GET RID OF THE STAIN..

Assistant : Yes, but the cloth will still be dirty..

Me : OMG!! (Wanna bang myself on the wall) YES!! I KNOW THE CLOTH WILL OBVIOUSLY STAIN WHENEVER WE USE IT AFTER PAINTING.. AND ITS DIFFICULT TO GET RID OF IT.. THATS WHY NOW ALL I NEED U TO DO IS TO RINSE THOROUGHLY.. EVEN IF THERE'S STAIN ALSO NVM.. JUST RINSE IT FOR ME..

SEE..??
That was obviously a VERY VERY SIMPLE TASK right??
But i have to spend so much time to explain to her..
Must as well wash it myself.. -_-""""""

Assistant is to help me lessen my burden..
Give me a helping hand..
That was what I did when I was an assistant..
BUT NOW...
Looks like I'm handling almost EVERYTHING ALL BY MYSELF!!
SOB!! SOB!!

Asked her to paste a plastic cover on the display corner so that I can display my kids' work..
Only to found out just now that SHE DID A TERRIBLE JOB!!
Already told her what I want..
BUT!! Haiz!!!
I will need to either tell her off tmr or DO IT MYSELF..

Poor Me!! -_-"""""

Alright..
Enough of my ranting..

Need to get started with my assignment now..
Please bless me with a PEACEFUL DAY tmr.. =)

Our Pigsty (Stage 2)

Staying home on a Sunday afternoon..
Had wanted to start on my assignment which is due on 15th Jan..
BUT!! I'm feeling so tired and lazy!!
Shall start tmr bahx..
~ I'm a lazy pig ~ Haa!!

Oh Ya!!
Here's the deco which Dear helped me with on New Year Eve..


The Birthday, Attendance & Weather Charts


My Maths Corner!!
I printed out everything and Dear helped me to put them up on the wall..
Can u spot that yummy delicious ice-cream??
Heeheez!! Thats my FAVOURITE corner!!


" WELCOME TO N1 PRAISE "
Gonna redo it when I've the time..


"I am a girl and you are a boy (x3)
Do you want to be my friend?"
Gonna teach my kids this song which I've learn @ Ichiban!! =)


Library Corner
Look so lousy la due to limited space


Dear 的杰作。。!!

Hmm..
How was my 2nd & 3rd day of school?
So far all my kids have been very co-operative..
I've only 6 kids at the moment cos 2 of them were sick and will be back tmr..
I'm so proud of myself la!!
Joel & Damian were actually crying when their mummy left them to me..
But I made them stopped crying within less than 5 mins!! Heeheez!
Other than that only Glenda and Clement are still crying..
But they will stop @ around 10am..
Haa!! Think they felt tired after crying for almost an hour bahx..

I'm sooooo HAPPY to have nice and co-operative parents as well..
None of them tried to peep or insist to stay in the class when they heard their child cries..
I know the kids now are going thru seperation anxiety..
Though parents are requested not to stay in class with their kids but I encourage and allow my parents to stay and talk to them for a while before they leave..
What i advise parents to do is that they can keep telling or ensure their kids that they will come and pick them up during dismissal..
On my side, I will always tell my kids the routine when they cry..
"Damian, we've to eat our snack, go playground, sing songs, play toys and do colouring before mummy comes and pick u up.. and remember I need to give u a BIG sticker / star after singing our Goodbye song right?"
Haa.. Thats how I always remind / ensure my kids and it always work well on them!! =)

Alright, enough of school..
I had a BAD FRIGHT on Friday afternoon!!!
Was happily walking to my block from the carpark..
Just when i reached the lift, I saw a CAT in front of the lift!!!!
OMG!! I was sooooooo afraid that I dun even dare to walk over to press for the lift!!
Stood there looking @ it for mins..
Finally!! Saw a auntie and a little girl walking over..
Was thinking "Great!! Hopefully the cat will walk away... or I can take the lift with them.."
BUT!! They were not taking the lift..
And the worst part was that the cat was still standing there when they walked pass it..
It didn't move at all..
Obviously waiting for the lift.. -_-""""""""

A young Malay couple walked by..
And again.. I was praying that they will take the lift..
But they didn't!!!
They were talking in Malay and walked pass me..
SO SAD!!! I WANNA GO HOME!!!

Thank God!!
They turned back, said something in Malay and played with the cat..
GOSH!! I was soooooo happy at that moment!!
Immediately dashed over and pressed for the lift..
Dashed in and hurriedly pressed for the CLOSE button!!!!!
Just when the lift was about to shut completely...................
I SAW THE CAT'S FACE AND THE STUPID LIFT OPENED!!!!!!!!!

ARGH!!
The next min, I was in the lift with the cat..
YES!! ME IN THE LIFT WITH CAT!!!
I SCREAMED LIKE HELL!!!!!
The young couple was standing outside the lift..
AND THERE I WAS SCREAMING "I AM SCARE OF CAT!!!!!!!!!!!"
I almost cried~!! -_-"""""
The guy immediately came in and carried the cat out..

Next moment, a guy walked into the lift..
I need to calm myself down..
Didn't even bother to ask him which floor he going to..
All I could remember was he asked me “这只猫有人养的啊?”
Replied him "I dunno.. I am scared of cats!!"

The door opened and we walked out together..
ARGH!! He's one of my neighbour la!!
OMG!! I must have looked soooo silly just now..
So embarrassing!!! Did he laugh at me??
Hurhur.. I dunno!!

Finally back home safe and sound..
Told Dear, Mummy and sis about it..
ALL OF THEM TEASED AND LAUGHED AT ME!!! -_-""""""

Woke up yesterday morning and I asked Dear..
Can we have roti prata for breakfast??
"YES! YES!"
