play session..

haiz.. not easy having kids.. not easy having kids who cannot sit still even for a second..

that jonaas.. today was more like a play session rather than a tuition lesson.. grabbed my red pen, drew on the books, asked silly questions, kept telling me he saw my dad in the lift (duh.. what's the big deal..) n i even had to bribe him by sacrificing 1 packet of biscuits i bought which was meant for my 'oil for midnight burning'.. wert.. kids..

n i was like totally burnt out once i stepped out of his house.. manz.. energy-exhausting..

time to mug mug mug.. 1st paper tomorrow.. oh shit..

colouring session..

just came back from teaching the k2 kid.. was teaching him about colours.. so we had a small colouring session.. n i showed him some simple colour-mixing 'magic'..

reminded me of the days in philippines.. when we went to the day care centres to play with the kids.. anthony was one of the kids that i remember.. heh.. well.. even though he and my tuition kid, jonaas are abt of the same age.. the difference is.. anthony does not know the name of the colours.. all he know is.. to make use of the limited colours the crayons they have.. n colour whatever he feels like..

sigh.. how i wish kids in s'pore can be more innocent just like them..

have to get back to study.. been munching on 'xiao man tou', choco biscuits, chocs since the day i have been camping at home.. arghh.. spoiling my diet plan..

countdown.. 3 more days to my 1st paper.. *O_o*

me and anthony during a colouring session.. that's our work!! hee~ Posted by Hello

i remember..

it has been a long long time since i went back to my JC.. ever since the day when i got back my A levels results.. went back to take a look at the juniors from PA/AVA.. they were having some initiation or interaction with the newcomers today.. didn't see a lot of people today.. other than the juniors (whom i know none of them.. haha..) and also mr choe, ronald, bernice and xuan you..

stepping into the school sort of brought back memories.. the 2 years spent in there.. been through happy and tough times there..

i remembered my class bench.. used to be my favourite hang-out.. it has a good location.. near the field, near the canteen.. airy.. =) yup.. and my class went through many ups and downs.. but we, the 02S70 will still stand strong.. (i hope..) though i m a bit guilty that i have not been keeping in touch with them..

i remembered PA/AVA.. =) struggled in there, especially during the Talentime period.. many things happened.. but that bonded us together.. n mr choe.. he's still the same old mr choe.. haha.. had bad memories lar.. remembered me crying when he scolded (or rather nagged) at me.. oh well.. everything's over.. we are not enemies now lar.. still friends lar hor?? haha.. n ronald.. mature le wor.. haha.. but still on with his 'werts'.. haha.. PA culture..

though many things have changed throughout these years, with the change of the school name, merging.. hwa chong institution.. i still miss the old hwa chong.. miss the old days.. sigh.. getting old..

just received a call from april.. =P today's her birthday!! happy birthday gal!! though she won't get to see this.. really missed the days when we were there.. she was at the central plaza when she called me.. that beautiful place.. missed her and her buddies who are real great hip-hop dancers.. =)

how i wish there are stars above me right now.. every star out there to bless all my friends..

tuition tuition..

suddenly remembered i have a test tomorrow.. so i wanted to tell elaine (my neighbour) that i couldn't make it for jonaas' tuition tomorrow.. and guess what.. she told me that jonaas like me alot.. haha.. and said that i was good.. because i didn't give him any homework.. hahaha

a sense of satisfaction..

he didn't have any homework for now 'cos i haven't get to have the time to buy books for him.. he needs some proper chinese books anyway.. haha.. so i will definitely give him homework one fine day.. *evil laugh*

nah.. at least i find pleasure teaching him.. at least i don't flare up teaching him.. not like the other one.. sigh.. almost puke blood yesterday when going through those maths problem sums.. almost all wrong manz.. explained to her dunno how many times the concepts.. n yet she still can't get it.. when asking her questions, her answers would be either "dunno" or some guesses which don't make sense at all.. *faints*

i just hope she will learn and show some improvements in her results.. if not all my efforts really going down the drain someday..

perhaps i will really end up being a real tutor.. at the current rate of giving 8 hours of tuition, 4 days per week.. manz.. no way!!!
