Mighty Wheelock
♥
Haven been blogging for a while...
Today's decision to stay home may be a right choice after all
cause I'm down with a slight cold.
Could be yesterday's water play with the kids,
totally drenched cause my kids splashed water at me.
I literally got chased and splashed at..
No doubt it was really fun, but I did not have towel to dry myself,
only a set of dry clothes to change into before entering my
cold classroom.
In addition, my priority to bathe and dry the kids,
and clearing up the water play stuff could have resulted in me
catching a cold.
And I forgot to take my vitamin pills for ytd too
and all the sinful indulgence - mac and awfully choco cake
and and the late nights..
Oops..
I think I really need to learn to take care of myself..
Got to be more healthy.
Talking of being healthy,
I am starting a fresh regime.
I took up a new course every Sunday starting frm tml.
excited! :D
That shld keep my spirit and my body in a healthier state.
The reason for naming the title 'Mighty Wheelock'
is very simple but significant.
I met up with my professors, lecturers and fellow schoolmates
a few weeks ago.
I was really down, hearing fellow schoolmates poured out
their encounters and dis-pleasures kind of affirmed my previous
decision..
Not till my professors gave their wise words,
very simple but kind of touched me deep down.
I've too much expectations on myself and for my class.
Many a time, I got carried away in giving it my best
and...
I forgot to appreciate simple things around me.
I forgot to acknowledge my own effort.
I forgot the importance of celebrating these
small successes that I've made along the way.
I was like a robot that kept going on and on..
Hearing my professors words, really enlightened me..
Though work is not easy, but
all these tough challenges that I'm facing
will make me stronger and better than before,
that I'm sure.
"Even when you choose to leave, you're not a quitter.''
There could really be greener grass on the other side, but
I've decided to embark the challenges on hand.
As of now, I am staying for many many reasons.
- I have awesome and mighty Wheelock mates as colleagues
(where to find ppl to get into cat fight, watch movie in pjs, share
happiness, sorrow and workload, going for sinful indulgence, shopping,
late nights etc)
- For my precious kids and supportive parents
- Though I'm not happy with the management, I still
appreciate my Ps for their care.
- I am not a year old and my effort will go down the drain
if I leave now.
- I can earn and save more for the later plan.
- I will wait till the day when the greener side starts blooming flowers
for me before I go.
This should be the plan as of now.
But still subjected to changes.
I am a much happier girl now...
Thanks to Wheelock! :)

The other side of the door
♥
Haven been blogging for awhile..
Have the sudden urge to drop a message to
my dear faithful readers..
HELLO!
hahas..
Working life has left me with little time to hang out with friends
much less blog abt daily events or meaningful stuff.
Even when I have some free time, I just
want to chill and not think of any stuff..
To be honest, I am kind of sick and tired of work..
Never mind tt work took away my health and time with
never-ending workload and high expectations
than any other peers wrking in this field.
It's just that
I have little faith left with my company and the management.
And no, I'm not the only one to feel this way..
I've talked to ppl at work and I can confidently say that
half of the teachers here are not really happy and satisfied
with the management.
Out of this half, some of them are already looking on the greener side..
I think I'm one of them..
My little tiny bit of motivation to continue
is because of the children and the support from their parents.
But ytd, I was told tt there's a chance tt my current kids are
going to move out of my class because they have more children
coming in..
Funny thing is, they knew tt the kids are the only source
of reason why I'm staying and now..
because of their mis-prediction, a mistake on their part,
they want to take away the bond tt we have created
with the kids and their parents, vice versa.
Without sparing a thought for the teachers AT ALL!
Although things are not finalized as of yet,
I am utterly disappointed, really.
Looking back at the many times I was so disappointed with
how they handle different situations and manage the centre.
If opportunities come knocking at my door again,
I'm sorry, but I am out of here..

My Career Personality Test Results
♥
Took this career personality test and I've got this result:
You are a Analyser DriverAnalyser Drivers are task oriented and don’t like to spend a lot of time talking or at meetings. You are in control of your emotions and tend to remain cool and less interested in people than the task at hand. As a combination of these two styles you are results oriented and at the same time you are driven to be accurate and precise. This combination is powerful and inventive.
Analyser Drivers want to achieve results that are precise, accurate and detailed. They excel when the responsibility to act independently has been given. This is particularly true in situations where the job requires detailed technical knowledge.
Analyser Drivers will complete projects accurately and thoroughly. An Analyser Driver will pursue all possible avenues to arrive at a solution. They enjoy solving problems, especially in situations where others have tried and failed and they’ve eventually succeeded.
For Analyser Drivers the ideal job is to work in careers that require factual, non-emotional assessment, where logic and procedures are well structured and provide you with support where you can perform to a high standard.
I think it is rather true to an extend like 70-80%,
though I thought I am also very relationship-oriented..
But anyway its either this or that, so prob I am
more towards an Analyser in this case.
Lol! So am I not suitable for this line I'm in?
Try it out and see how accurate it is for you :)

Sick yet again
♥
Was on leave today and tomorrow.
Crap.
I was still thinking how strong I have gotten
over time.
Only to get two-days MC, three days to be exact
from the possibility of virus attacked.
Highly likely it's
stomach flu from mingling with the children
of different schools during the concert or
food poisoning from the graduation party
or the lunch from the mall.
I was practically vomiting and having diarrhea the
whole night on Saturday till dawn..
When I thought I was feeling much better only
to wake up vomiting on myself.
It continued through the night.
The doctor seemed to get a shock after
he asked me if the cycle continues for more than 5 times and
I had to correct him that it was about 10 times of each.
I guess I was almost send to the hospital on the possibility
of dehydration. The doctor suggested having jab and
I settled for just the pills instead.
Cause I only brought $50 bucks out. hahas..
With the MC, I thought I can catch up on some work but
only to sleep through the day and night peacefully like
a dead log.
And crappy my stomach was, and still it is..
zzzz...

Shame on you!
♥
Can't understand why some ppl have an evil heart,
with the intention of pulling ppl down or
doing/saying things that will harm or hurt others intentionally.
What do you benefit from it?
I salute you for being able to lie through your
teeth! And being able to cover it up well.
I can't imagine the countless of ppl that you have already harmed.
You are in the Early Childhood Field!
What values are you inculcating to the young ones?
Seriously, Shame on you!
I feel disgusted talking to you!
It's affecting me very much!
I think it's time to stop driving myself crazy,
being so affected by such pointless stuff.
Thanks for challenging and driving me up the wall, trust me,
I'm not going to be easily beaten by you, anymore!

Could've Been
♥
The flowers that you gave me
Are just about to die
When I think about what could've been
Makes me want to cry
The sweet words you whispered
Didn't mean a thing
I guess our song is over
As we begin to sing
Could've been so beautiful
Could've been so right
Could've been my lover
Everyday of my life
Could've been so beautiful
Could've been so right
I'll never know what could've been
On a cold and lonely night
The memories of our lovin'
Still linger in the air
Like the faded scent of your roses
Stay with me everywhere
Everytime I get my hopes up
They always seem to fall
Still what could've been
Is better than what could never be at all
Could've been so beautiful
Could've been so right
Could've been my lover
Everyday of my life
Could've been so beautiful
Could've been so right
You can't know what could've been
On a cold and lonely night
This is such a sweet and sad song.
It could've been in my tunebox for yrs
and this is the first time I heard and noticed it.
Beautiful..
