of eating out, no Visa and kindergarten

hai semua
apa khabar kamu?
sihatkah?

ok lets go straight to the point.
do you know why i like to have my meals at non smoking premises rather than the open aired one?

sebab u cannot smoke in non smoking premises!!!=D

ok lame. anywayss....my grandfather and 2 aunties are here in Terengganu.the younger aunt has an interview tomorrow for a position of a lecturer in one uni, so i wish her the best of luck!

and the non-smoking thingy popped into my head as we're leaving one restoran tomyam yang okay tapi is open aired so as usual orang2 yang selfish and kurang rasa respect kepada masyarakat sekitarnya smoked. and we all hate it sbb hello, people are eating. why poison our food, lungs and mind kan (mind because i always have to force myself not to cuss even in my head). if u wanna die, do it alone. don't drag me and my family to the grave with you. ye saya memang anti asap rokok. but if by chance anyone reading ni is a smoker, don't worry i wont eat you or something. just don't smoke anywhere near me. do it privately.

speaking of which, lagi i cannot stand kalau orang muda smoke near elders and anyone who smokes around babies. memang dalam hati rasa mcm nak *insert a very gruesome act u can think of* je orang tu. phew~

and Anita informed us NZ and Aussie bound students are entitled to have an extra 10kgs for check in luggage. tapi nak wat student privillage card tu, u need to present a copy of our passport. which i don't have and my passport is still with the immigration in Singapore for visa application. lembap sgt la the visa thingy. biasa kan apply visa around 2 weeks je. ni dah dekat sebulan xdapat lagi. Fatin terchenta told me that most probably we'll be getting our visa early Feb. she got the news from Kamm kan. i'll call kamm later. but tau x the reason? sbb banyak sgt cuti. Cuti New year, cuti Chinese New year lagi. adeyh. tp i still think that its been too long la. xrase ke? but whaterver la. i'll go to MAS office tomorrow morning and try my luck. without the copy.

few days back, i went back to the kindergarten which i used to teach. masa tunggu SPM result la. tehee. then kan, wow the kids has grown (the teacher's kids yang dulu cinonet still learning to walk without falling dah masuk kelas so perasaan dia kelakar gile. wow, r u growing up too fast or is it me getting older?) and tgk my favourite bunch of kids, the 4 years old. and alamak. one of them, ape nama eh, oh yes Safanah. sgt unique tp kalo short tempered memang susah ngan dia. they have a new teacher for K4T class. softspoken. memang macam mak2. the only problem is that she is kinda blur of what to do. n nampak mcm she don't have control over the classroom. oh ye the reason i was there is because my mum suro tunjuk her how to handle the class. tapi byk la problem.

she had never been strict in the classroom so the kids xtau who's the boss. and when the kids fail to recognize u as a teacher, memang dh cukup chaotic. for me. i noe i shouldnt comment too much on other's classroom, tp still. bia la. my blog. hehehehe. so the kids mcm xde interaction ngan dia. nak kumpulkan the kids for an activity pun susah. memang sgt different from the class i used to handle dlu. huuu. and to add the amount of misery yang dah already ada in the classroom, ada satu gelongsor yang terlampau2 dekat dgn workstation. so memang susah focus. especially ada sorang yang mmg uncontrollable. i remembered having 2 almost uncontrollable kids during my year of teaching, tp they were better and more disciplined after a month. tp kene pay speacial attention sikit la.

so back to the problem, ha. ada sorang yang bising gile kuat main and xleh handle kalo kene marah. she's the major contributor to the new teacher's headache sbb when she scold her for something, or the times when she acts up, dia jadi mcm hamster marah. she wont listen to us, she will start screaming her head off and lari. and the problem is the only way u can make her listen to you is by sitting her down and talk to her eye to eye sampai she respond 'macam tu ke cikgu?'. adeyh. verbal scolding is a NO-NO with her. and behaviourism works best, tp in the sense of rewards je la. mcm, this morning when i went she wanted to have her biscuits. so i bring her to the pantry kan. she sat down through the first meal and okay, she eat sampai abis. halfway through the second one she ran out with the biscuit so icalled her back to the pantry tapi she wont listen. i told her xboleh makan dlm classroom, nanti kacau org nak belajar but she refused to listen. so i took the remaining biscuit stuck out from her mouth and say 'kalau xnak ikut cikgu makan kat dapur cikgu xnak bagi balik biskut ni kat Anah. cikgu makan sorang'. so she was like 'xboleh ke makan kat sini?' i said 'no. nak makan kene duduk dapur. kalau duduk sini nanti abang2 kakak2 tgk anah makan, pastu semua nak makan. nanti Anah kene kongsi biskut Anah dngan abang2 ngan kakak2. nak?' then she answered ' oh..macam tu ke cikgu?' barula she followed me back to the pantry. see? adeyh.

i am talking too much about the kindergarten right? haisyhh
