I Feel Like A Child Again!
Had Children's Day celebration in school today. I feel like a child again esp when the song Semoga Bahagia is played. Lagu kenangan beb! Used to remember the times I would sing the song with gutso. Niway, there's a concert. The teachers put up a dance. Normally, I would join in the fun....but tis year, due to my bulging tummy, I had to give it a miss. Haha, they did some Hindustani dance tis year. Very interesting leh! Oh yah, did I tell you guyz I actually signed up for this Modern Dancing course in the beginning of the year? Well, tat also I had to drop halfway. Nvm, nxt year I shall look forward to a more active regime! Hmmm and that includes looking after the lil one! *grins*
Went to Suntec City with Irda after school yesterday. She wanted to look for shawls while yours truly was looking for a gift for my darling hubby. Haha, I've finally got him a present. I haven't been able to get a present cos everywhere I go hubby seems to be tagging along. So to hubby: Yes, that's my main purpose of going Suntec actually! Heheh, sorry eh saya tipu awak. Sekali ajer saya tipu awak. Nanti ari raya saya minta maaf lebih2. *lol*
I shall wrap the present after school today as hubby's coming home late tonite. So, come Sunday, I will just present it to him. Haha, maybe I should consider wrapping myself as well! *lol* Shall I wrap it with extra wrapping papers...or perhaps layers of newspaper? *evil grin*
Will post a pic of what I got for my lil darlings in school later.......too tired. Need to prepare myself for Lower Primary Sports Day lah. Oh yah, the TUMMY is finally really SHOWING! Even the makcik who sells at kopitiam asks me how many months I am!
Oklah...need to go...tata!

Tis The Season
(To be sung to the tune of Tis' The Season 2b Jolly)
Tis' the season to be stressed up! Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la. 3 more weeks to exam time. Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la. So much topics to cover. Tra-la-la-tra-la-la-la-la-la-la. With so little time in hand. Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
Naughty children everywhere. Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la. Seems so switch off at this time. Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la. Oh my, oh my, what to do? Tra-la-la-tra-la-la-la-la-la-la. Oh my darlings, pls hang on! Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
Frenzied teachers all around. Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la. Trying hard to chase syllabus. Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la. Panting teachers, fatigue students. Tra-la-la-tra-la-la-la-la-la-la. Oh when will this year come to an end? Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
Had P1 oral juz now. Was rather disappointed at their reading skills. I have to admit kids nowadays have rather poor reading skills. It scares me, to be honest. I mean, I'm going to be a mother soon. I hate it when I hear ppl say:"Alah, mak cikgu pon anak tak pandai ker?" or "Dia tu pandai ajar anak orang jer. Anak sendri tak terajar." Weiiii, these remarks hurt ok! Yes we're teachers. But so what? We're human beings too. And for those of you who think that being intelligent is juz scoring academically, let me correct ur mindset now. According to Howard Gardner, there are 8 aspects of intelligences....or rather he call it Multiple Intelligences. So, a child need not be intelligent in academic aspect. He or she could be intelligent kinesthetically. Results are really nothing. Yah, I know in Singapore, results count. But hey, look at it tis way: schools are now trying to develop children holistically. So, be patient aye...we'll soon recognize students who're not academically inclined.
Ok, I'm feeling so lethargic nowadays. In school, I'm like going on the maximum power. I even have to change my remedials to supplementary just to chase the syllabus. It's really tiring, I admit. On one hand, I can't wait for the year to be over. On another, I wish I can slow things down a little. Oklah...nitez to all!

Sunday's Outing
Was supposed to stay at home and prepare for my CTL202 presentation yesterday. Haha, but in the end, me and hubby went to Plaza Singapura. Purpose? We had to get curtains for the upcoming Hari Raya. But since I had yet to do research for my CTL202 presentation, told hubby that I needed to go to the library. So, off we went to Arab St first to have our brunch. I had murtabak while hubby ate Briyani Rice. Haha, but in the end, I couldn't finish the murtabak and poor hubby had to finish it on my behalf.
Proceeded to National Library. Yeah, the newly and still bau kedai library. I've got only one word to describe the library: USER-UNFRIENDLY! First they stated tat the reference section is from Level 7-13. How the hell am I suppose to know which level should I go??? Blurr me went to Lvl 7, deposited my bag at the locker there, juz to realize tat the books and journals I needed to refer to was at Level 11. Bloody-gol-so'ot betul! Niway, we can't bring in notes to the Reference section there. Spoiler man! So the mafan! Hubby went to the Central Lending area....cos I told him tat it's gonna be boring at the reference section! *lol*
Went to Plaza Sing from there and bought our curtains from Spotlight. Hurray! Finally curtains for our house. Dropped by Mums & Babes and we spotted beautiful socks for babies. Haha, we bought them in the end cos it's cheap....3 pairs for $4.20! Then went to Mothercare to survey the McLaren stroller tat hubby wanted so much. Hubby, who's sitting on the stroller? U or baby? :P Saw nice baby stuffs there. Tempted to buy...man! Walked to John Little. They're having discounts...and we saw the box of Avent bottles which normally costs close to $50.....guess what? It's only about $30++....so grab lah! Haha....I did consult my mum first and asked her if it was alrite to buy these things bit by bit...and she said it's ok...as long as u chuck it aside and not think abt it anymore.
Went to Secret Recipe after that. Nothing special abt it. Went back home, feeling very, very tired....but happy as another weekend is spent with hubby dearest :D

Tired Saturday
Had Pragmatics lesson at NIE this morning. We had a new tutor....his name is Paul something2. (Can't remember his surname...so the tongue twister!) Initially I was wide awake...but towards the later part of the lesson, I tot his voice seemed to be sounding further and further. Haha, I almost dozed off! But haven't doze off yet, unlike that Liza! Member terlelap entah brapa kali sak! Got back my Pragmatics Quiz results. Didn't do too well....but it's still a pass! Haha, scored badly for the second part. Hey! How the hell am I suppose to know that the Pope is Catholic! Si Pope tu bukannyer sedara dgn aku sey :P
Went to Bugis with her after lesson. Heeeeeee.....Haz, we finally got out of Jurong Point huh? *lol* Niway, went to Tong Seng to have our lunch. We had chicken rice...and yours truly had an added bowl of fish soup. Itu sudah satu kewajipan bila pergi makan di Tong Seng! Haha, Haz, I just realized I finished the soup all alone today! First time I actually managed to finish the soup! Ishk.....ni mesti baby suka makan tau! :P
After lunch, we went to Concourse. Yipeeeeeeeeee! I've finally bought the Children's Day gifts! Phew! It's such a crowded place at Concourse...just as I'd expected. Haha, and yeah u guessed it rite, they're all teachers who are there at the last minute to buy the Children's Day gifts! *Bluekz* Met my ex NIE mates there too! In short, Concourse became a Teachers' Paradise. Bought some IQ puzzles stuffs for my kids. Will post a pic of it after Children's Day lah! I'm afraid some of my students stumble upon my blog then it'll be no surprise anymore mah :D
We managed to drop by Arab St....and I bought 3 tudungs. Hmmm, can't help it lah. Tudung freak! Kekeke....especially Akel ones. Then we went to Bugis Village. Haz bought the Emily the Strange bag and 2 watches. I didn't buy any. Huh, u must be wondering....this Hus so good meh? Haha, tat's because I've already bought the bag and I've got 6 watches now! Hehehe.
Proceeded to Bugis Junction and we looked at some baby stuffs. I am so truly madly deeply in love with the Winnie The Pooh collections...and also the Fox Baby's collections. Nvm, will wait till my lil one is out.."I will shop on ur behalf yah, baby! Ayah won't mind...heheheh u're the first child mah! Rite hubby?" Hur hur hur...
Oh the cluster sharing went well. I did enjoy presenting in front of about 60 people. Glamour you! Mcm Taufik Batisah gitu feeling nyer! *lol*
Yeah...I'm not revealing my baby's gender as yet. Hehe, call me mean or evil. I know it. I just love the pout your lips are making when you read this! Haha, sabar menanti yah! For now, I wanna go and prepare for my presentation on Monday. Oh yah, need to get a prezzie for hubby too...His birthday is soooooo near...N yours truly is truly out of idea of what to get for him....*puts on thinking cap*

Toothache!
I'm in school rite now with a terrible toothache! Yah, my school's having Mid Autumn Festival tonite. It's so chaotic outside that I decide to sit in the staff room and update my blog instead. So, peningz! Niway, got my dates with roasted almond today! Yummyyyyyy...thankz to Hairunisa!
Arghhh!! I'm suppose to date Haz tomoro...but looks like I may have to cancel it due to the sickening wisdom tooth of mine. In the first place, who on earth name it WISDOM tooth, when it's not so wise after all??? Bodoh sungguh org tu!
I'm still contemplating to go to a dentist. Niway, suppose to go to my sis-in-law's place for her housewarming tomoro. But told hubby that I may have to give it a miss, all thankz to the not-so-wise WISDOM tooth of mine!
Oh....hubby bought me a Winnie The Pooh pen and plush! Nice pennnnnnnnnnn tau! I brought it to school and instantly the other Winnie The Pooh lovers were jealous of me! He bought lotsa chocolate for me too!! Heheheh....errr did I have too much of those chocolate that my tooth is aching now? :P Hmmmm, he also bought Japanese grapes back...sedap tau! Jgn jeles eh?? Oh yah to Amoy Esra:"U should go to Japan according to Faiz. Dia kata tu Hello Kitty paradise sey!" Haha, but eh I come to a conclusion that the Japanese version of the Winnie The Pooh has sepet eyes...like my hubby! Hahahahah.....nevertheless, thank u hubby, sayanggggggggggggg awak many2!

Hubby-less no more! Hubby-ful!
As of tomoro, I won't be hubby-less anymore! *Pfft* Hubby's returning in a few hours time. Gosh, I'm soooooooo excited! Oh but I guess the lil one inside me is more excited than I am. My usual routine before I go to sleep is to speak to the lil one. Told the lil one that Ayah's coming home tonite and instantly, the lil one responded by giving me a very hard kick! Terkejut japz gue....haha but it's a nice feeling altogether :) Ishk...confirm yg kat dlm ni anak ayah!
Oh yeah...I am excited! Heheheh mcm first date sey! I even reminded hubby dozens time to wake me up when he comes home. Hmmmm but then again I'm not even sure if I can sleep tonite? *lol*
Back in school..work is piling! Urghhhhhhhhh....I'm going bonkers. Especially with the SAIL Cluster Sharing taking place nxt Thurs and yours truly has been appointed to conduct and organize the sharing session. My first time handling such a big event. I'm scared to be honest. Hmmm...let's just pray everything will turn out ok yah?
The kids? Errr...they're more rascalz in Term 4 as compared to the other terms. I guess tis is such a jinx period. Macam2 hal dorang create sey! Pening gue dibuatnyer. And everytime I scold the kids, the baby will kick me! Errr...baby u rejoicing at them or u angry with ur mummy for scolding them? Can't help it darling...they're juz lil rascalz! Don't take after them ok? :D
Ok...got to go and settle some stuffs....I MISS MY HUBBY! Hehehehhe! :P

"Chow" Ah-Beng & Ah-Lian
What's with youngsters nowadays? They seem to be getting more and more rude! Sekali aku slapppppppppppppppppppp, baru padan muka korang! I was lining up and waiting for 174 on my way home from Jurong Point just now. Spotted a pair of Ah Beng & Ah Lian. They didn't even queue up ok! I was already telling myself...if they dare to jump my queue, I will really give them a piece of my mind. So, when the bus came, they almost jumped the queue...I snapped at them and told them:"Excuse me, I'm sure both of you are not handicapped rite? I can see you're perfectly able bodied teenage. So, please join the queue! Thank you!" Haha, the bus driver looked at me, grinned and gave me the thumbs-up. Niway, they sat in front of me...and by the look of it, I think they were rather unhappy with me lah. Heck care! Kau ada SA-LAK-KAU?? Aku ada KAU-KAU-KAU ar! *giggles* Like I said, after that they actually took out a packet of smelly rojak and ate in the bus! I was already fed-up. I kept my cool still. Then the "chow" ah lian actually switched on her handphone and played the MP3 super duper loud. By this time, I had enuff....err u guyz muz understand..it's the hols u see...I've got no students to scold and no hubby to nag at....so muz find means to vent my frustrations mah?? Heheh.....so, I politely tapped the girl's shoulder...
Me: Excuse me, but I think you're disturbing me with the smell of your rojak. Can you be more considerate and not eat in the bus? Furthermore, there's a sign on the bus which states strictly no eating. You're not blind, I assume? Ah-lian:*twitches her mouth and turns to her bf* Pu yao kuan ha...sen chin ping (Translated: Ignore her, she's crazy!) Me: Err...you don't understand English? *Shows the no eating sign instead* Ah-lian: Kuan ha lah....che ke bus pu se ha de mah. (Translated: Ignore her lah, this bus doesn't belong to her) Me: *decides that it's the best time to show off my multi-lingual skills* Tui, che ke bus pu se wo de. Ke se wo ye se huan jian mah! Ni huan jian, wo ye se huan jian. Che ke bus ye se pu se ni de! Lu kuo ni men hai se yao je ni men de rojak wo hui ken bus driver jiang! Pu yao pi wo hor! (Translated: Rite, the bus isn't mine. But I paid bus fare. You paid fare, I paid too! The bus also isn't yours. You're too much! If you don't stop eating your rojak, I will have to inform the bus driver! Ah lian: *stops eating and looks at me* You can speak Mandarin? Me: Singapore is a multi racial society....of course I can! Next time, be careful before you scold anyone!
Well, the couple got off the bus soon after! Haha, chet, fancy bullying a pregnant lady. No good hor??? Tu ar, aku ckp baik2 tak nak dgr.....saja nak kasi aku marahkan kan kan? Hah, rasakan!!
Niway, went to watch a movie with Haz...The Perfect Catch. Nice show! The lesson learnt from the movie is.....every couple should learn to accomodate! I didn't go back to my own house today. Perhaps tomoro I will...need to clear my laundry and also keep the house spick and span to welcome hubby home! Heheh...and also tooooooooo sleep on my bed! I miss my own bed!! *lol*
Hmmmm....discovered something when I went to Toys R' Us with Haz just now. Haha, shall post the pic tomoro yah! This entry is too long ar...wait u all get bored of reading it...*lol*
4 more days to hubby's return!! Hubbyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, I've missed you tremendously! Err...yah I noe I've said tat dozen times. Eh, gua punya suka lah...gua punya blog per! *lol*
People say waiting is such a painful experience. I agree totally...but for certain things, it was worth the wait. Hubby called me at ard 9+ p.m. (Spore time), we didn't chat for long as it was really expensive. Nevertheless, it soothed me a bit to hear hubby's voice and to know that he is doing fine there. One thing for sure, I was trying hard to control my tears while speaking to him. I wanted to be strong, for him at least. Haha, but hubby, u were controlling ur tears too!! I could hear it ok! :D
Niway, 2 days down....6 more days to hubby's return from Japan! Hubby dear, I'm looking forward to ur return! Niway, I'm back at my own house for a while...as I missed my hubby terribly...Heheheh....ni tgh sniffing the pillow he used! LoL!
Meanwhile one of my granduncle passed away this morning. Al fateha to him and may Allah place his soul among the good ones...Amin.

Lonesome Holiday
This is the first school holiday where I am not disturbed at all. I'm only required to come once for this one week of holiday. Am I suppose to rejoice? Hell, I'm not! Hubby's left for Japan yesterday. *sobs sobs*
It was the first night where I felt so lonely. The feeling was simply horrible! I didn't realize that I will miss him so terribly. With the major problem I am facing now, I don't know where the hell am I going to gather enuff courage to face it. No, I'm not washing my dirty linen in public. I'm juz venting my frustrations.
I know I'm not suppose to be crying....it's not good for the baby....and my health. But, what am I suppose to do? I'm all alone in this battle. No hubby...just me and the baby. The depression is really sinking in very badly. Must I sacrifice my happiness for someone else to be happy?
I've been crying a lot last nite...Even now...tears welled in my eyes as I typed the entry. Hubby, if you happen to be in an internet cafe and reading my blog, I'm sorry if those sms-es I sent u caused you to worry. I'm really at my wit's end. And for the first time in my life, I really felt very lonely. I don't know if I can carry on this battle. I'm praying that you will come back safely. I really look forward to seeing you next week.
Sighs....I miss my hubby soooooooo terribly! And I'm soooooo lonely.....*sighs*

My Wishlist...
I've nvr had a wishlist....Cos in the past, I don believe in it. But now I guess I really need one.
1. I wish for everybody to be happy Am I wrong to wish for that? No! I don't want to wish for myself to be happy. I just want everyone else around me to be happy. In fact, I'm willing to sacrifice my happiness just so that everyone can have a fair share.
2. I wish she can accept him I just want you to accept him. Accept him for who he is. Understand that every human being has their own flaws. U're not perfect yourself, u know. Accept the way that family works. Every family works in their own way. They have their own set of rules. We have ours....so do they. Give them a chance, will you?
3. I wish he tries harder to make amends and win her heart I know you're trying....just that I can't seem to feel that you're trying hard enuff. Please try to win her heart! I don't like to feel trapped everytime I meet her. I love you both. Both of you are very dear to me and it definitely breaks my heart to be trapped in this kinda situation.
4. I wish I am given more strength to go through this phase of life I thought I will be able to juggle all the problems. I had always managed my problems well. Yeah...I had, once upon a time ago. Now, I crumble at the slightest cracks. What's wrong? Am I starting to be like one of those people who cannot taste failure?
5. I wish I can turn back time If I could do this, would I still make the same decision I did? Or would things have turned out differently? Perhaps, I would still make the same decision..but tis time round, I will definitely work my butts out so that things will be better.
6. I wish the genie from Aladdin really exists! Yeah...call me childish. But sometimes I do wish tat the genie really exists. If tat's the case, I guess no human will ever make a mistake. But then again, to err is human and to forgive is divine. Ironical aren't we as human beings?
Don't worry I am not depressed. But I am just utterly tired of being trapped. It's been a few months since I am feeling so trapped. Yg satu degil tak agak2....yg satu plak simply bo chap! Sighs....aku jugak yg pening kepala! To both of YOU, can YOU guys stop making me feel trapped??? I am really tired....please stop being so CHILDISH and behave like adults will ya!
Ok....I'm done! Heeeeee...on another note, I bought 2 children's story book from NIE bookshop after class today. One cost a dollar...the other cost $2. I can't wait to read those books to my baby. *Speaks to baby: Don't worry. Mummy has bought you one storage box of English story books. I promise I will read to you a bedtime story everyday, yah! Err....but will wait till you're slightly older tho'*
