Attachment

Hee.....Didnt really have time to put in photos nowadays....keke....Life had been so hectic since god knows when......keke.....not complaining thou....coz living life to the fullest is a life well-lived.....hahha....

Anyway, here are some pics - my time with my attachment kindergarten. Not gonna reveal the name of the school in case of some ethics issue, esp if it's involving children....hee....must be careful mah....keke

My kids hard at work ne.... My kids hard at play too....haha.....

Introducing the up and coming stars of the future......

The musician.... The next JK Rowling....

The mathematicians....

And of coz not forgetting my fav student.....

The next Wang Lee Hom....
Wahaaha......That's coz he's just sooooooooooo cute, soooooo adorable and soooooo witty that I can't stop being impressed by him each day.....

One day, he asked me with his signature pout:

K: Teacher Ireneeee, you know, I'm not hap-pee! *cross hands* (Already toking like a little adult....damn cute....)

Me: Hmmm....y not?

K: Girls always have the best things in life. (my gosh....he's only 5 u noe....haha)

Me: I dont think so, K. You know that teachers treat boys and gals the same. Why do you say that?

Then he go on to tell me his observations.....makes me realise that its true that we tend to protect the gals more u noe.....maybe we need to pay more attention to equality....sigh....its tough being a teacher ne.....

Can't wait to see them tomorrow again.....heee.....Gonna bring my camera and take more photos of K....no no....I meant my children....kekeke......

Don't worry, I'm NOT a Pedophile k! aiyoooyoooo......

Another new year....

Hee....valentine's day has just arrived not long ago and while I'm still lost in my own world, cny is coming sooooooo soon, I just cant keep up with all these excitement! kekke.....not a bad thing of coz but its just that I'm feeling kinda worried that I'm missing out something.....I dunno how to explain this feeling....but I'm still lost in it! haha.....watever.....keke....

If I were to describe V day in one word for this year, I would use the word "cozy". Hee.....we made a pact not to spend money to buy prezzie for each other this yr as we rather save the money for our future....keke....n we did put that amt of money in our bank....hee hee....w/o prezzie, many wld feel it wld not be like v day anymore.....well, I had my doubt previously althou I suggested it.......but now, I'm happy to declare I'm commercialized-free! hahhaha.....if there's such a word....whahaha.....

The 1-hr stroll at the beach after our meal was just so nice.....nothing I wld want more than spending time with my dd, toking, laughing, teasing and just being there with one another.... carefree and without any reservations....

Hee.....oh yeah.....back to cny! You know wat, my dad went to buy a big BIG yellow paper pineapple and hang it right under our number plate..... I almost faint when I saw this!

Contentment

Mostly, things or events that make you happy come when u least expect....n mostly in the simplest of all things simple....keke.....if u get wat I mean....hee hee....

Take last weekend for example....I helped my dd paint his room walls coz that ding dong bell went to DIY removed all the....wat u call them....hm....fixed up furnitures? Well....anyway, he went to remove it himself which resulted in so many many ugly holes in his walls.....yeeeeek... so we hafta paint his room an apple green color (my first choice was purple but he refused....so this understanding gf of his....aka muah.....suggested apple green instead....hee). While I wanted to try out using the ladder to paint the higher part of the wall....he refused to let me coz he say I'm accident prone....okies....that makes my heart melt a little althou the way he says it sux....but sigh....wat can I say...he is not romantic kinda person lor.....n maybe I'm a a bit too dillusional? kekekeke.....

but frankly speaking, its so tiring to paint the whole 4 walls u noe....somemore with micro-mini small paintbrushes.....*grumble grumble*....but then again, not that I contributed much also....most of the paint went to my hands....I cant rem how I got them.....I was being very careful u noe.....but still it "mysteriously" landed on my hand.....heeee....

the thing is....althou the task was super tiring.....it was amazingly nice....contented....hmmm.....maybe its the singing, the teasing, the laughing at each other's work or the act of working together and the process of encouragement we gave to each other....well, kanbatei was my fav word while my dd kept asking me "dear lei ma?".....well....yeah.....not romantic again hor....*grumble grumble*....I shld ask him to say to me "deeear....ni hao xing ku ooooh.....Let me treat u to crystal jade la mian xiao long bao"....kekkee.....then he'll tell me next time dun need to help liaoz....yue bang yue mang! kekeke.....

We finally finished painting the walls on Sun morn, head down to Ikea to buy some DIY (yeah....he doesnt learn his lesson one!) cabinets and bookcases and ended up fixing all those yucky dirty wooden thingy by the end of the day.....sooooo tired....he owe me big time, man!!! kekeke.....yeah....I went to bed thinking.....he owe me crystal jade la mian xiao long bao! Hmpft!

Events...

:(
My grandpa passed away peacefully...I still remember his handsome face whenever he flashes his cheeky smile at me when I asked if he remembered who I am...After he fell into a 3m deep drain in msia, he suffered memory loss and limited speech ability for the past 2 yrs...but he still remembers my name, Irene...which makes me real happy....I love to see him smile that cheeky smile of his....its just so charming....just like the photo of him riding his Harley-liked motorcycle....I used to tell him he looks so much like those old movie stars....hee....he'll laugh at me....I also remembered all the gang-ho stories of his stubborn and outgoing personality....his effort in trying to "escape" home and such....Remembering my grandpa makes me feel so glad I have such a wonderful grandpa....
