MIss You

I missed my kids today and thisis not the first time ... it's not something that I do.... not all the time and don't get me wrong . At times it's meetings ..one meeting after another and this happens because we have a lot to plan and discuss .

Like today was a nice day for me , I was happy that the school I visited for fx , the kids did wonderfully well. And not to mention thier smiles on thier faces when I gave them a sticker for doing good.

How I miss my cheerful lot. I will make it up to them tomorrow at the zoo.Hmmmm ... amazing and wonderful children.... This morning before I left , I told them to pray hard and ask GOD to hold back the rain .... they were quite dissappointed when I told them that , if it rains tomorrow , we might just have to cancel our zoo trip .... and as usual , NIlly said , " Teacher Audra , Nilly akan baca doa berhenti hujan'.

Now I do not know if there is such a doa but I know for one thing , GOD listens to HIS children ...

'The Things / Rules That Would make me happy is........

These are some of the rules suggested by my class 6 Grace that would make me a very happy Pre School teacher;


follow teacher everywhere.
see all of the animals.
we can use our outside voice.
keep quiet ..... what ? inside voice at the zoo ?
bring a lot of medicine incase the tiger /lion bite us then we can put .
go to toilet.
hold hands ..yuck !!!!!
stay in line.


talk to the animals .
be nice to each other .
no pushing .
say please and thank you .
we take a splash in the bangau lake .
we smile when we take pictures.
don't stand to the other coloured ribbon children.
and....
find the zoo keeper incase the lion / tiger escapes!!!!!!!!!

i don't want to talk to you and i am keeping quiet !!

There is this cute little boy in my class and I am wondering if I should post his name ... so anyway this little boy is kinda special . Just ask him to smile and you will know what I mean . It's his love for sweets that makes his smile special... he is the most obedient kid in class. Once I was very angry with him and through his tears , he kept on repeating these words ;"Tr Audra , I will not make you angry , I will listenn to you , I will follow you ,please Tr Audra I will listen to you '.He goes on and on like a battered old radio and you have to stop him if not , he will go on and on again !!!!!!!!!!


Since we will be going to the zoo on Thursday,with so much semangat in me , I told the class that rules are rules and that they should try to finish up their work and then on Thursday we will all go to the zoo. My little friend had another idea and he wasted so much time talkin away , he forgot to do his work .


I told him that I was not going to talk to him and that made him cry minus the tears .He went on and on again how he would listen and follow me . The cutest part;'Tr Audra , I want you to talk to me , please tr talk to me.' I felt the love that kid had for me , I was so enjoying myself .. Therese walked in .. and tambah lagi and the poor kid could not tahan , so finally Therese said to him that if wants me to love him back , he had to give me a hug ..... he did give me a hug it was a sotong kinda hug ..............

So in all fairness to all of the students of 6 Grace , yes , you will all still go for the trip and that includes Lynus as well ........

Strength

Some say that strength comes from within you and it also comes when you least expect it to .For some strength is power and with that power , it leads to many other types of strength . It also depends on the individual the strength that he or she seeks .


A friend was down .. very down recently and the one thing that kept her going was the songs that she played over and over again ( songs of strength). She also said that ever since that she has been down , she forgot herself and also the strength that was in her . She never knew she had it.

It was through constant prayers and healing that she over came her depression and she is almost back to her oldself again. But according to her , she is not done yet. Forgiveness comes from within too. Forgive yourself first , others then move along .It was a difficult period for my friend as she was in and out of self denial and blame laid upon her by others and family members.


The thing to remember is there are people who loves you and you are being loved. From what I can see , my friend is a strong woman because she has friends like us who will not let her fall . To my friend , remember , stay happy , be around happy people , forge on and don't give up on the LORD for HE never gave up on you and us...

SEEK THE LORD AND YOU WILL BE RIVIVED ....

Zoo

The coming week will be a busy one for me as I have to coordinate the transport for the zoo trip -- only for my school , but all the same we each have something to do and we have to make sure everything goes right .... you name it , first aid box , water , biscuits and the works and now I am not so sure if I have to pay for Mc Donalds haha...



It's big time and once again , my kids ,6 Grace are really looking forward to it . Hmmmm..... they have been warned no super stunts or else .. they will get left behind !!!! Just kidding ..... As usual we have to drill the kids and tell them the rules . Rules are rules and some even have the cheek to ask if their siblings could come along ......... well NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

The first animal that my kids wanna go look at, will be the tigers .

Why ? Because ;

Harimau ada taring ,
Harimau liar ,
The harimau has sharp teeth and once it bites you , you will die !!!
Kalau nilly cakap banyak banyak tinggal aje dia dengan harimau tu !!!!!!!!!!!

The next animal ? Gajah .

Gajah besar tapi berak dia busuk tau hmm nanti jangan lupa tutup hidung !!!!!


Then miss smarty pants , 'teacher Audra if a lion escapes and we are there how ?

Chong Ci Tian : 'You stay there la !!!
Danish : 'We will call for help and find the zook keeper.


There will be alot of talk in the bus and some even will sleep ... whatever the case is , all I know is I'm gonna have a good time with my gang .... and please no roller shoes .. Thank you .

Stapler 101

I have noticed how noisy my class has become lately .. why ? Its because they were all born in the year of the monkey. Now that is one theory .. 10 to 1 or 1 to 10 , call it what you want . Or perhaps the other reason being is that their teacher (me)is a chatter box and I am in constant chatter from the time I enter into my class till I go home.


It has come to my attention that all of my students are attention seekers and some even have voiced out to me that I should just ignore the damn phone and just get on with business for the day .


Yesterday , nothing went wrong with yesterday cept that a young mother stepped into a hole and she was so angry with the whole school for not being careful . Apology given and we continued the day. Back to stapler 101 , I overheard Hadief saying this to NIlly;

Nilly as usual was in her chattering mood 247...

Hadief :Tak yah , la Nilly . Asyik dok cakap aje.
Nilly :Ala , kita nak bagitau Lai Bei Shuen something.
Hadief :Tak yah la , bising la karang stapler mulut baru tau !!!!!!

Even with Hadief saying that NIlly just giggles and chatters again. Poor Hadief marah hahaha .... after hearing the conversation .. I ended up laughing .... Can't help it .
