I really need to learn things fast and to be more responsible of the nitty gritty things in work because I am a full-time staff and those are within my job scopes among all other things. Damn! It's really hard you know. To move from being a student-teacher to be a real real real teacher. I seriously need to brush up our my classroom management because I just sucks at it. And I knew it the very day I step into a childcare in Year 1. My kids are an adorable bunch but they can be quite a handful too.

I am thankful for all the help I have received and I love the fact that I have an aunty in my class to help me with the kids so that I can concentrate on just a couple during activities. Grateful that I do not have to work on their portfolio as yet because I am pretty new. But I do have a couple of things to share if necessary because these kids are just amazing sometimes.


Like just now. We were playing with dough and a boy wanted to push the dough out from a tube. Some materials were missing and I told him to wait for his friend to finish with the "pusher thingy". 2 minutes later, he used a roller to push his dough out and said "Teacher Qiaoyi, see!". Creative? 100%.

They are so young but they can always do things to make us smile (and frown, definitely) effortlessly. Randomly saying "I love you, Teacher Qiaoyi" and coming over to give me a hug before I go home. But sometimes you know that some of them just do it because their friends did and they want to "join in". Whatever! I still love them =D

I can't wait to get my Lumix back so that I can bring it to work. I don't really like sharing camera. Damn selfish it sounds but no. I just keep taking pictures but forget to load them into my computer, the teacher move it into hers. And I damn worried that my lousy memory will kick in and I forgot why I even took some photos. Gonna bring my laptop to work tml!
