First week of school!

I have to admit that the first week of school was not how I expected it to be... Usually I'll at least have one crying child that doesn't want to be in school and wants their mommy. Surprisingly this year I didn't have that child! Most of my students were from the class below mine, and now they have moved up to my class. I guess they are use to coming to school already but the new children seem to have settled pretty good the first day... Amazing!!!

I didn't have any mischievous students this time not like the ones I had last year... they really drove me up the wall, they moved on to the next class and I kind of miss them actually :o(
Oh well it looks like this year I'll be working with a more controlled group of children, looks like its going to be a good year for me :o)

My sisters children are all in school except for GiGimon of coz she still a baby. My brothers daughter is off from school.. she and her brother had this viral fever for 3 days, they went for a Dengue blood test and the results were negative.. thats a good news! I called them last night and they seem to be recovering..

Anyway, The weekend is here... I really need the rest and get off my feet, it feels much better now but the pain is still there. I have to make an appointment for a blood test before I see a specialist about my feet. Hope it turns out ok... my days are numbered I guess... I'm turning 30 soon... dam I feel old! I'm so old I sat behind Jesus in 3rd grade! hehehe... I think I'll celebrate my birthday when my brothers and sister are back in KL with their families for Chinese new year... A small BBQ party should be nice, invite a few friends and close relatives la... keep it simple sit back and relax... sounds good!! see how it goes la... anyway until next time.. adios!

Happy New Year!!!!

The holidays is almost over for me, past two days I had to go back to school to do some cleaning up and get all my stuff ready for school on Monday. I feel so tired, I didn't get enough sleep for the past month. Due to over shopping and too much walking during the holidays, I'm now having problems with my left foot, I can't stand up or walk for to long. The pain is agonizing. I got some medication from the doctor and It seem to help, the pain is still there but not so bad la. I hope it gets better coz I don't want to see a specialist.... I'm scared!

This year Christmas was a bit different for me and it was a whole new experience for Kasey. The children had a blast, they loved their gifts and we had fun opening all the presents. We had a BBQ dinner for Christmas. We stayed with my sister and her family of 7 + my brother's family of 4 + my mother and older brother. All of us were cramp up in that little house. We managed to sleep when ever we had the chance... somehow we survived!! Our JB trip was not so bad... a bit quiet and more relaxing. We stayed there for 3 days only then drove back to Malacca.

For New Years eve we went to the Portuguese settlement to visit some relatives and see whats hot and happening over there. They always have something planed and usually they throw a great party. This year the portuguese community organized a street party. There were free food and drinks for everybody, there were loud music, people dancing all over the place. The fireworks was amazing. We watched 30 firecracker lit at the stroke of midnight each one was 16 feet long... I can still here the ringing sound in my ear after that experience. An estimate over 5000 people were on the streets that night. It was wild!!! Everybody enjoyed themselves, It was simply great!! I'm actually looking forward for the next New Year's eve party 2009!.. heheheh

Happy New Year to everybody, hope this year will bring lots of good things!!!
