Snake Charmer!


This is Jamie... yup my 17 year old niece. As you can see she likes snakes just like me. Beautiful creatures.

Normally during the school holidays she helps out or work part time with the Exotic Reptile crew I forgot what the name of that group is called. Anyway, she likes going on road trips and exhibitions coz she gets to play with the snake. I wish I had the opportunity to do that, it would be like the best job ever... I've been so fascinated with snakes since I was 11 years old, when I held my first Boa Constrictor. I was an experience I can never forget and I fell in love with snakes ever since.

Anyway these pictures were taken quite recently... so cool!





Whats up next?

It's that time of year again, I have to start preparing my students for the annual concert in August. This year my theme is Aladdin... heheh so cute. The other classes are doing The Bee Movie, Jungle Book, Mulan and Peter Pan. I think this years concert is going to be really interesting.

I went out with the teachers yesterday to buy the materials for the costumes. Each class has about RM400 budget to work with. Lucky for me I bought ready made ones last week. I manage to get 9 suits and 3 pants, now I have to sew the tops for the 3 pants. I bought everything I need and I've already started to work on the costumes. I have less then 2 months to organize the stage props and decorations. It's going to be really stressful.

My next holiday is coming up in July, thats 2 weeks off... but we have one week of summer camp. Some of the teachers are organizing a trip to Bali, 4 of them are confirm going. I'm not going coz of my fear of flying and I cant leave my husband here all alone... he will DIEEEEE!!!. The poor guy will starve to death or he might eat my dog! I can't leave them alone together for too long. They drive me nuts! Anyway, I plan to sit back and relax at home. I dont get that kind of opportunity much anymore so might as well take advantage of it.

Until next time, Adios.

I'm back!

I haven't posted anything here for quite sometime now.. it's not like I've gone over seas or anything but it has been a very busy month. As usual I've been so caught up with work and my personal life, I cant really find the time to actually sit down, relax and do the things I love to do without someone asking me to do stuff. My daily routine is as crazy as it was before... here is a rough idea what it's like...

5.45am Prepare breakfast and food for my husband
6.15am Shower
6.45am Pack my stuff while watching the Simpsons
7.00am Drive to work
7.30am arive at school and start cleaning the classroom
8.30am Work begins.. 4 hours of madness, unending complains from 4 year olds... etc.
12.45pm Work done!! alleluiaaaaaaaaaaa
1.00pm Lunch
1.30pm Clean up the classroom
2.00pm Go home
2.30pm Home sweet home...
3.00pm Nap time
4.00pm Make a sandwiches for me
43.0pm Go for my therapy session (15 minutes to get there, 15 minutes to get my materials ready, 2 hour session, 30-45 minutes to fill out the report, 15 minutes to get home)
8.00pm Back home again
8.30pm Dinner time
9.00pm Shower
9.30pm Prepare the art stuff for tomorrows class
10.00pm Get in to bed... sleep!

The days when I dont have therapy I normally do my grocery shopping and that normally takes about 2 to 3 hours or so... I spend about RM200 a week.
The only day I have time for my self is Saturday, even that its often interrupted by my mother.. I have to take her to buy her 4D numbers.

Most schools are on their term break now.. I'm still working tho, my school holiday is in July. My sister and her kids are coming on Monday to spend a week here. I'm excited but I feel so tired.. I hope I'm not to tired to entertain them when they get here... I cant take them any where cause I'm still working.

Anyway until the next blog.. Astala vista.
