Wohoo~

I think it has finally sunked in that I'm done with the the first year of Uni! Wheee~

Although it meant days of burning midnight oil, especially the day before assignment due dates and being a zombie the day after, and, despite the fact that I need to have some sorta time management plan, I kinda like it. :)

Three week block prac is the most tiring thing ever! Well, it did give me a taste of working life tho :P Waking up early, work work, reaching home cook and that's about all the brain cells and energy I have to spare for the day. Being there at 7:15am on a early shift sure doesnt sound too appealing does it but I guess the highlight of it is the experience that comes with it. Carers who cared not only for the kids but also took the effort out of their busy schedule to care for you. Loved them to bits.

Day after day, the children just melts ur heart. Here's just one of many instances within my three weeks. A lil one holds your hand and tugs you along in the backyard calling, "Come, Esther, come!"

"Where are we going?" I asked. "To your office!!!"
"Where is my office?"
"I don't know, we need to find it!"

He pulls me along and we walked around the outdoor play area looking for my office. Along the way, there layed a tiny dried up brown leaf among the lush green grass.

He pointed at the leaf and go, "Here it is! You sit here." "Stay here," he looked back making a stop signal with his hand, smiling as he ran off. "I'll come back and pick you up."

How cute can cute get?

Boo boo day

Been super accident prone today, dunno why. It all started at the photocopier in the library when I was trying to get some papers out of my file to copy. *Scrattch* When I tried pulling the ring open and i saw a big line on my thumb. Whatever, I thought, its just a tiny scratch. Only realize its seriousness when blood just kept dripping. Tissueless, I had to run to the loo to grab some and while doin so, had a few big drops on the cover of my teaching file. Time to do some beautifying by sticking stuff over it :P

Returned to the room I go to only to realize a child had tripped in the toilet and had a bad cut across her chin and mummy n daddy were on their way.

Cooked dinner, and keep touching the kettle accidentally and going ouchhh!

Baked banana cake, and guess wat? Came out black crusted but inside was still quite okie.

So, tell me, a boo boo day indeed? Or issit just today?

Working life?

I'm on my 3 week block prac now and I feel like I'm working really. Wakie early, head to childcare, come home bout 6, cook, then that's about all the energy available for the day. Wats interesting is SWEET stuff seems to find its way to the top of the most appetizing chart and a few more pounds dim in significance :)

Lols, lots of cute stories to share and yet a learning process for me. What other course allows you to sit in the sandpit and play with the kids all afternoon :)
