Hello everyone, been a few days right. I was a bit sleepy half an hour ago but then I remembered that I hadn't done my salah so I decided to do it fearing I would fall asleep.
However, my drowsiness disappeared after it was done. Needless to say that devils truly persuade us into not doing our good deeds by making us lazy or sleepy or bored. Many other things. I have been there I have done that, and most of the time I failed. Very humane.
Let's talk about something else. Hmm where should I begin. Things at work have been so-so. Nothing special has happened in the past two weeks. To be frank, the staff room is not that comfy any longer. It feels a bit blunt. Complicated to go further about it. Since my coming back, I have already sensed the presence of walls among us teachers. There is no more chit chat about random unimportant incidents. What appears is more like you take care of what's around you and never get into my territory. People gossip about other people. People talk bad about others. People feel they are very capable of things that they feel they deserve better in return. If they are better then they may ask for better stuff, or at least be mindful of others. Have a sense of empathy won't they?! Arrgh, I don't wanna care. I dont work to make friends, I work to earn money and a living for my baby.
Had a life club class today, it was fun. I had eight little children aged 4-6 years old. We managed to make our mini finger puppets, it was pretty easy for them. As always I did most of the cutting and the kids were able to colour everything pretty properly. And there's this boy named Aqila. He is hilarious. He sang all the way through out the class, he said random English words to me pretending as if I understood him. And he was having fun, I could really see that. I can tell he has improved in terms of everything! He is so confident, he enjoys doing many different activities, and he completes tasks properly. Around three or four months ago, being a new kid in class he would cry whenever his mother was about to leave the class. Well i am happy now he has turned into a totally different student.
A minute before the class was over, another boy named Carlson (the one on green t-shirt) cried all of a sudden. I thought someone must have stepped on his foot or something like that. But there was no one standing around him. After trying to ask him for a few minutes he finally told me (and his nanny) that he cried because he didn't get a burger (everyone in a life club class usually gets to bring a snack home). Very funny indeed. It was only a matter of a burger. Kids oh kids. They are so spontaneous and honest. My maternal instinct has truly changed the way I feel about little kids even though I have only delivered one :p
Have no more to write, i am still here eating my favourite coffee biscuits, coffeejoy. thank goodness it's saturday tomorrow. i can wake up late, i don't need to worry about leaving kei, and i dont have to hate the water puddles in the streets for making my feet and toes dirty during rain. Oh my these biscuits are so yummy :D
reade more...
