SNUGGLY/CUDDLY

Ahh, finally some time to blog! The weather's really really good right now & I finally have the time to get some of my To-do list checked. Been really busy of the late due to Practicum ( 3 more weeks before it ends ) & the annoying tasks attached to it.

After much procrastination, I've finally transferred all my photos & vids into my lappy, FINALLY. 

*The usage of the word: Finally, will be used many times because these are the things I've been wanting to do but yeah, procrastination gets the best of me.

AND YES, SUPER OVERDUED COLOURRUN VISUALS.

I can't stop looking & laughing at my "uni-brows". The boy & the guys kept laughing at them too, hahah! I have no idea how the powder makes my brows sort of connect & how they emphasize so much on my brows. Prolly that's the reason why I don't put make-up. But these photos are just a mere fraction of the fun that we had & its time like these when I secretly wished I had a 24/7 camera-man with me. So that I can get all these moments captured, especially those super candid & spontaneous ones. It would be a lesser hassle to actually get everyone to freeze or re-enact that scene.

     

 My daily routine during Prac

It's not those boring & tiring "job" as what most of you may imagine but it's actually really fulfilling & it's a joy to see those lil ones running to you & giving you huge, gigantic hugs. //heart melts & gushing moment.

It would be the most ideal holiday job for me if not for the Tasks, Implementation, Lesson Plans attached to it.

7.50 : Heading to the Kindergarten sector to get my attendance signed, quick morning chat with my teachers, leaving a morn text for my boy & heading to the child-care sector.

(The kindergarten & childcare are two different buildings(?), well sort of, they are 100m apart.)

8.00: Greeting the teachers there, the daily "Good Morning Ms Ernchi" this repeats about 7 times, depending on the number of children there & then morning chats with my kids.

8.10-8.30 : Making sure the children have their breakfast, hugs from Sofia, story-telling sess for those kids who are done or any other activity to keep the occupied.

8.40: Mini lesson time with Mdm Rainah with the nursery children.

-  Mondays; discussion with the children on the theme they would like for the week. Followed by Kinderdance from an external instructor. Kinda like children's ballet!

- Tuesdays; Building with Leggo

- Wednesdays; Creative Art

- Thurdays; Discovery & Science Experiments

- Fridays; Food making

9.40: Nursery children start packing up & prepare to head to the kindergarten sector for classes.

10.00: Nursery children start lessons, while I either stay with them or head over to the K2 area to help with their concert practice. Those kiddos can really shake their bumbums & have some swag moves (; Hahaha it's really cute to see them dance & what not.

For the whole of last week, I got them involved with the decorations of the classroom & they were handy-helpers! They kept asking "Ms Ernchi, can I help you?" "Is there anything I can do?" Awww, what a helpful bunch! Even after telling them that I had nothing left for them to do, they kept finding little jobs for themselves, like throwing the paper, stacking the paper, pasting the little bits etc.

11.50: Get them to wear shoes, take their belongings & sing the goodbye song.

12.00 - 12.50: Lunch break. Chit-chatting sess with Ms Maya & of course, getting some work done.

12.50 - 1.00: Get ready for my darling K1s.

1.00 - 1.10: Welcoming my favourite kiddos in for class, greeting them, hearing about their stories & singing the national anthem.

1.10 - 1.20: Attendance taking & getting them to the washroom

1.20 - 2.00: Mother Tongue class. I always stay with the Malay class because Ms Maya is teaching & also to pick up some Malay along the way.

2.00 - 3.00: Lessons with the kiddos & activities in between. This is where I get my daily dosage of love from my kiddos, esp Gethro, Alexander, Kedrick, Sharah, Yong Zhi. All the hugs & kisses, hehs! And mind you, these lil dudes may only be 5 but they sure do have tons of tricks up their sleeves, bet they're gonna knock the socks off girls in time to come. Hahahah!

3.30: Snack time & my daily afternoon talks with Yong Zhi about what he ate at home because that fussy picker doesn't take snacks. I'm always very interested in what these kids have at home & you'll be amaze at what their parents cook/feed them.

4.00: Completing their schoolwork, drawing or indoor activities.

4.50: Preparing to go home.

5.00: Saying goodbye & sending them out of school.

These is the rough timetable but in between there are just too many small funny/cute/heart-melt incidents with them & you'll smile whilst thinking about them.

Children are angels from heaven. 

Breakkie, the boy & I made at his place yesterday. So apparently, it was Teacher's Day yesterday & we got a day-off! What better way to spend my only off day with the boy (: Went to his place early in the mornz to crash with him, the weather was just too good. Snuggly, cuddly weather! 

Spent an hour at least making breakfast for us & his sissy. Then lepak in his room watching vids & what not till Cuen came over. Played with the plyssa beads (I'm starting to get hooked onto it) & entertain myself while the dudes were watching some basketball anime thingy, pfft guys being guys. Prepared & headed out to meet rest for dinnz @ Chomp Chomp! :D

Been craving so badly for it that I told Kaiwen to ask the clique along for some good yum yums! Never a dull, boring trip with the guys (: Settled for wings, hokkien mee, Stingray, veg, cockles, sotong & huge mugs of sugarcane! A very satisfying dinner :D headed back to Yishun to play some frisbee & its been awhile since I played it. Found the joy in it after so long & it was satisfying knowing that I kinda got the hang of it quickly (; I'm more of a catcher than a thrower but it was all good.

Many impromptu meet-ups with the boy this week & it was really great ending my days with him. (: Hehehe so much love for the boy & the things he does! Stoked for chalet this weekend, waking up to the boy, morning bliss (:
