On Saturday morning, I lost my voice. I regained it on Sunday night but it's still a little croaky. I'm coughing non stop, wherever I go. It's so annoying. But teachers tell me, 'it's part of your job'. I'm guaranteed to lose my voice at least twice a year as a new graduate. Great. I didn't know THAT was written in my job description!

Quick update:

Kinder has been good. Pretty much settled in. Have a routine that's working well for me. Getting used to being the actual teacher and being in charge... not someone who's constantly asking if what I'm doing is right. The children have been wonderful, as always. Parents have been great too. Very supportive. My assistant is lots of fun to work with. Being around my age, we get along really well.

Working at schools, in between kinder, has been awesome! I love it! I love it! I love it! :D

Caught up with friends here and there. Going to their houses, out for dinner, shopping, sms-ing, emails. It's been good.

Parents just came back from NZ. So for one week, I was the mum of the house. Geez, its so difficult to think of what to cook each night. I don't know how mum does it everyday. But somehow, I enjoy the responsibility of looking after my brothers, especially my younger one... though it can get very tiring when I'm the only one that does the housework! >.<

Had my farewell dinner for my casual job last Wednesday night. It was lots of fun... but sad as well. AND I forgot to take a camera! haiz... :( I'm gonna miss working there... and I'm really gonna miss the people... I know I will never find a better team of people to work with. We were like a little family. Small and cosy.

Last week of term next week, then HOLIDAYS! haha... sorry to all you working people who won't get school holidays off... hehe...
