Over and out

One huge burden off my shoulder.
Let's let out a loooong sigh now...
*pheeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww*

It was 2 whole hectic weeks! CRAZY!
I think everyone @ work were so stressed and tired and cranky that we ended up complaining about our kids and wanting to quit. On Thursday alone, I heard 3 of my friends saying that maybe this job isn't really what they wanted.

But it was really horrible, I tell you.
On top of the normal lessons (and I have to remind you that an hour's worth of lesson requires a few hours worth of preparation that includes planning/creating of ppt/designing of worksheets and printing), the usual disciplinary problems that we have to handle and our own class' stalls (even though it's supposed to be run by students, it's the teachers that ended up running around in circles) we each have some duty or another for the carnival. Horrible horrible horrible.
So many tasks and so little time. Every little break in between classes was spent preparing for the next lesson and by the time class ended at abt 3 or 4 pm, I'd be busy planning for my stalls and then for the show. Pecah kepala otak aku.

And then I'd have to rush home and it's work all over again at home. Urgh. I feel sick to the stomach thinking about that 2 weeks.

The only things I looked forward to were my son's smiles and hugs and my husband's scent. I dunno why but his scent has always been a calming element in my life.

And I guess I'm lucky to have such wonderful friends at work too.

I just want to shout:

I AM FREAKING GLAD THIS IS OVER!!

Btw, my class made $735 from our drinks & choc fondue stall and my show made $1.5k.
Not bad. ;-)
We did our part for charity, kiddos!

Holiday update

I figure I should take a break from all the lesson planning that I've been doing for the past 2 hours or so. Pecah kepala otak aku. But I must admit I've always loved planning lessons, especially fun ones. If only I have all the time in the world during school term to do just that, but I really don't. So, Im glad that I have some time here to sit quietly and do it while babysitting my band kids.

That aside, I wanna tell you guys that we went Johor AGAIN! Woaahhhh! Syiok! Especially since it being a weekday, no jam, no crowds...

We went to that new (to us, at least) place called Aeon @ Bukit Indah. Nice... It's something like Vivo, minus the crowd, which was definitely a plus factor. And of course, we went crazy seeing all the halal restaurants! In the end we (me) decided to try out the Black Canyon restaurant hich serves a wide array of sumptious food. We were really spoilt for choice! And the hubs when crazy and bought like ermm.. 5 or 6 t-shirts at one go! Ewah ewah, now he can't complain that he has no t-shirts to wear!

And Ryan was one happy kid yesterday, since there were at least THREE playgrounds. 1 outdoor and 2 indoor. We decided to go to the indoor one with the bouncy castles. Had to pay 5RM, but what is that compared to the look on his face (absolute happiness!) He was running here and there undecided as to which slides/house/horse he wants to play with. And he objected when we brought him of that place. Kesiaaaannnn... Nanti ibu bawak gi playground k!

Well, it has been quite a nice break for me.
Short but nice.

Camp. Again.

Hello everyone! How's things out there? I wouldn't know since I am afterall stucked in school for the usual camp.
*sigh*

Hello, Ryan! Ibu misses you. Wake abah up for milk tonight, ok? If he doesn't just nudge him a little harder.
Hello, sayang! Don't worry, I miss you too. Just don't bring Scarlett Jo. home tonight or I'll kick your ass.

I know I should be using this opportunity to catch up on some marking. But hey... Im still in that holiday mood lah dey. BUT, I've already spruced up my workstation. Fuh! Bersih!

Ok, that's it.
I wanna go hooommmmee!
