How Has It Been ? And HOnesty

Superlicious week ? Fraid not ... I mean what is wrong with the world today ? Did the humans wake up to the wrong side of the bed each morning ? What happened to honesty and all that jazz?


As a little girl, I was thought to be honest with not only with myself but also to those around me . Sadly it never happen that way . I am honest with myself but others were not . And at 37 I still do apologize when at fault .... and I do not hold any grudges .

It's a gift . One of the many gifts that we and some of us posess . The week has been not entirely smooth . Okay , maybe due to my high standards .. working ethics ... , I am a fussy pot but all in a good way . Some just say I am plain fussy .

Why ? Hmmm .. one thing is for sure , that explains why I am still single . Men cannot tahan .. fussyness ... so maybe , I should go and have some fun ?

The kids are perking up in school which is good ... the journey was quite tough but we managed .For the love of our country , I am a fussy pot .. I like things done in a quick and professional way . To some , its a tiring thing to do . But that is how I see it .

Okay so , should I just let everything get in the way and say it's okay even when it's not ?

Ants were jumping and I didn't know it ...

My class as I have said before , year in and year out , it's like one giant circus . We have the trapeeze act in one corner , the acrobats , the clows and the tamers ...


Sadly there are no lions , bears or tigers unless they sing ... Mother Hen is calling ... Cluck , Cluck , Cluck . I will not go on with the rhyme but when you are in my class room and when you hear them sing , it can only mean one thing ; my kids love to sing and I feel really proud to have taught them that rhyme ..

I Like My Head is not too bad either .... but what gets me most is when I start to ask the class what they would like to sing .. and here comes trouble .

HBE: Teacher , not fair ,you always listen to LKYL .
LKYL : Simply tell people .
ER : LKYL , you are just a baby .
LKYL :Nooooooooooooooooooooooo !! Where Got ...
NS : Cikgu kenapa , selalu cikgu ikut aje ?
DSD : NOt all the time teacher must follow what you say .

This goes on for ten minutes in my class .... each day . If I were to listen to HBE , she will love me everyday of her life and if I happen to forget to bring them to the playground , HBE will go , Teacher , yesterday you said we will go to the playground . Why till now also not yet go ?


Okay , we will go now ......
Thank god it's Friday .......

Confident Blur

I just don't get it . To some being blur is an art form . Being blur means you get to do ;

1. nothing
2 it could mean you don't know how to attempt the tasks given to you.
3. it could mean that when you're blur the first time then you don't get choosen to do a task.


Then there is the part which I just cannot understand .

Case Senario ;

There you are , trying to get get your point across and all you get is a blur look or stare and this could only mean one thing , TALK LA ALL YOU WANT , I DON'T HAVE TO LISTEN TO YOU !! So how should I react to this ?

Simple , let's all act blur for a day and see how it goes .... this post is not about putting any of my friends down but , it has been noted that only a few people in the whole wide world and only the few knows how to act blur .......

As for friends who wants to act blur ... you've gotta practice to get the blur look .

And kids please do not try this at home ...

See ya later,

easy peasy , lemon squeezy ......

Telling as it is ...

Tooday in class I told them a story about a crab . As I was going on and on about the crab which had only four legs .... Miss drama queen pointed out to the class by saying that the best part of a crab was its legs , which then led to another statement , ' I prefer the body, the body has more flesh ..... which is true ..

So , I went on by saying that this particular crab had four legs and how his friends started to tease hin about them. In directly , I was trying to tell the kids that some of thier friends are different and it's okay ..


Miss Muffet of the class .. stood up and said , 'Crabs do not have four legs but six legs.' There I was trying to be in a pleasant mood and ... Miss Muffet went on and on by saying , 'Crabs don't got to school . I stood up and told the whole class that this is just a story .. I told Miss Muffet that if she interrupted me one more time , I'm going home ... After a few giggles and gaggles from here and there , smarty pants said , 'Teacher you have to ring the bell before you go home '.

ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!

Today In Class.....

Since the telephone has been ringging in my class , my sudents go , 'What , another phone call .' Some would even say , 'Teacher, tell them not to call la , only after our class , then ask them to call.' Well, cute right .... but it does not work that way and why just this morning , miss smarty pants told the class that she was goong to pray very hard that the phone will not ring !


Did the prayer work ? Nope . And much to all of the excitement , someone stood up and said , 'Your prayer did not work .' Yes , yes miss smarty pants got all worked up and then , started making huge noises , and she even sounded like an old trumpet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fun , it was ... then a teacher came in to see me and miss smarty pants went , " Oh no , not again !!!!

Master over top came and whispered into my ear ,' How come everyone is looking for you teacher ?' The kid had a point . But how do tell your class that who ever comes into your class has something important to tell you ?

What is up fr tomorrow ? More fun stuff I suppose !

My Class

My class has no class but they are a bunch of smarty pants . From the Missies right up to the Misters . They are a noisy lot and there's only 18 of them ....okay I got it easy this time . Well since I got it easy peasy with the class , just try telling them a story and Miss Six would stand up and say , 'I aready heard that story '.


'Boo , Hoo , Hoo sorry to disappoint ya , you'll just have to sit right through till I say so !!!!

So , what do i do ? Maybe I could just scale down the walll like Spidey and that I have to get back for a quick snack !!!

Maybe I could just tie them all up to a chair and just ignore them ? What ever it is , this is gonna be one hot class . Oh yes , they will keep me on my toes for sure !!!!

The One

I have always noticed , how I would always help others and when it comes to my turn , no one is there to help me , however , as simple as it goes , I always find a way out . I would like for a change that someone just comes up to me ... ( that is .. if I am in trouble ) and say , 'Hey , pretty lady . I am here to lend you a hand .'


Yeah , wake up and smell the air pollution .. no way !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is like this, how come I seem to do it each time .. when someone comes and tells me that they need a favour ..... ching !!!!!! it's done . I have turned water into wine as they saying goes .. but in return , I would like someone to turn my water into wine .


For example ; no one asked if I had my lunch or a break .. no . I feel sad but I will turn this the other way around .. if anyone asks me for a favour , I'd just say ... it's my break time , come back next year !!!!

16 days and I survived

Ok 16 days and I am still surviving .................... as a principal .. Let me start from the beginning . The orientation was a breeze .... no it was chaotic !!!! The screaming and the crying ... I almost gave up . What the hell was I even thinking that I could pull off something so simple ? I wanted to run away and I don't know if I would be a good leader ...


So from a day , it went to a week and things started to kick off . It went on the the second week and that was fine until .... we had this mum who was so upset over nothing .

The 3rd week will be tomorrow . I do not know what is instore for me and my teachers but I would'nt let it bother me very much . Okay here is the game plan .. Put a deaf ear on everything that needs to be complained . How if I would just stare at the parents, with daggers in my eyes and that way they would zip thier mouths before they even think of opening them ?


Now that's cruel . Our mission statement said it all ; so develope each child , to respect and to uphold integrity and smile even though you heart is breaking . No that was not what it said . In the mean time I think I'd go offline now and just watch Run Fat Boy, Run .

WHy was I given to you ?

Most of the time , I used to ask myself this question , Why was I given to my parents ? Then , I would ask myself again , what good would I do being in this family ? For years I have thought about it and just the other day , I was wondering again.


So , after growing in my family and with years of happiness , I think I am allowed to say that the reason I was given into this family is because , I brought joy to them . I say this on behalf of my sister as well .. I mean we we not the over acheiver in school , but we did the most normal stuff that any normal kids would .

I guess also that as a unit , we moved as one and we got closer and closer to each other . We are blessed to be given good parents who taught us the simpleness of everything and life too. So would I wanna change siblings and parents ?


No way , I would want to have the same mum and dad , sister , two god sons and same brother in law .. Why ? Because they have known you already .
