Monday Blues?

felt a tad abandoned and a tinge of disappointment..

-----------------------------------------------------

diarrhoea is no fun at all.

but anyway, at least today was spent meaningfully with my mama :) and my cbbbbbb.... *giggles*

sad that i'll be missing the CNY celebration at The Cove tmr, but ah wells, i really need to rest.

miss the kids though. wonder if they miss me?

and somewhere else far far far away, a little boy is turning 1 year old today....

Blessed Birthday Nahum! :) i can't wait to see you in June :)

falling sick once in a while can be a blessing...

it's highly strange that i dun feel the least bit sleepy now considering i have fever, took med an hour ago, and only slept from 9-12am then 6-730am last night and this morning respectively. that means 4.5 hours of sleep.... waaaaaay too leetle

but i really cant fall asleep now! is it the fever keeping me awake? that would explain why i was awake from 12-6 and used the time to upload photos, pack my room and listen to Ps Naomi's sermons... 2 of them (good stuff!). and repeatedly too.

8.38am now. service at 1030. who knows, my temp may have gone down by then... cant help feeling a tinge of pride at how clever i am for applying what was supposed to be a cool gel eye mask thingy for relaxing to my forehead instead. then when it gets warm, i just make it cold again by soaking it briefly in a container of ice water. haha. so much more mess-free than a towel with ice cubes.. at least i wun get wet as the towel leaks water.

had a nice chat with oct this morn too... ironic how we're talking much more now that she's overseas and the time diff means we chat at weird hours. it's nice though :) alwas had a soft spot for that gal.. (else i woulddnt have gotten so agitated and busybody-ish when i perceived that *ahem* was bullying her then. whether the perception was right or wrong is another story and one which i still aint sure about. heh)

ANYWAY, oct said that xh's gonna visit her in uk during the easter period!!!! ahhhhhhhh... i tempted to go tooo... i wonder if i'll actually end up going anywhere at all after being swamped with all the possibilities now. that would be a total dampener. i want i want...... (oh no i sound like dotdot whining.... *sniggers* no offense k girl? u know i love you!)

one problem with me is that i want too many things. whoever reads this, please pray for me that i wun be such a materialistic person and want so many things and spend so much $$$....

ok, mom and pop have gone to the market. i shall go wrap flowers :)

it's strange how we like to address people whom we know may not even see this on this little space we call our own (aka blog)

but yes... reading what you wrote, i have a better idea of what u go through, who you are from the thoughts you share and the way you express yourself. what i feel towards you is a whole mish-mash of both positive and negative emotions, though i seriously think that the feeling's not future cos from what i gather there's prob mostly negative on your part towards me. which i can understand if all you've ever done was to misunderstand me. so ya.

as i told *them*, ultimately whether or not you regard me as a friend doesn't matter and is no loss to me anymore.. and i guess u may think/feel the same way. But believe it or not, i sincerely wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart and hope that God will help you see and address your weaknesses, just as He is working on me..

i just feel vindicated that *they* as bystanders can see that you view me through tinted glasses.

at the end of the day, as people always say, you can't expect the whole world to love you. i dun need to be liked by everyone, i just want to be appreciated, accepted and loved for whom i am by the people i value and treasure despite all my flaws. for i am only human.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

yet another happy day. most rewarding and infintely satisfying to see all my belove Cove kids again... BOY have i missed them... :) and so concludes the first day of work.

Monday, February 1, 2010

Considering how i only slept 3+ hours on Sunday rushing out the IEP report for submission on Monday, i should sleep like at least 9 hours yesterday to make up for it... horrors of horros=rs tho, its thus highly strange that i awoke at 6+am this morning (slept close to 11pm) feeling fully awake... at least for now... haha.

does that mean i'll be very tired later? Hmmm. ah wells.

how appropriate that the last assignment of my diploma days will be concluded with a stayover at dot's house to chiong it tgt...

am i really going for physical fitness test the next day though after handing in THE LAST ASSIGNMENT?

if i'm sleep-deprived, i'll feel like a walking zombie....

On a happier note (and busier one too), work starts this thurs, 1 day after the end of assignments. haha. will be seeing my beloved Cove kids on a regular basis soooooonnnnn... :)
today turned out to be an unexpectedly happy and fulfilling day...

started off as a sleep-deprived zombie editing the IEP report at 6+am... edit edit then write own reflection then more editing before finally finishing all the editing ard 11am, which ironically was the originally stated dateline. lol.

took my time to get ready to go school to hand in peer evaluation form, as my part of editing was complete though the rest were fighting against time to print print print then bind and SUBMIT!! everything fell into place, thank God for His grace, cos Iryanti was nice enough to wait in HMS office till 2pm giving us sufficient time to tie up all the loose ends. ~beams~

managed to squeeze out time to visit my beloved Cove kids... i am biased but i just adore the 2+ and 3+ year olds.. somehow younger children just have this special appeal to me. and the 3+ year olds, as my first proper batch of kids will always have a special place in my heart :) just sitting them and patting them to sleep during their nap time also nice... little things like their individual unique smiles, how some of them scrunch up their eyes and squeeze them tight when i whisper to them to close their eyes and go to bed, how KY who was originally soundly asleep suddenly got up, flung off the blanket (which i had covered her with, oops! apparently, it was too warm. haha) and then settled down to bed again just warms my heart.. speaking of warm, i was also like "oops" when Ms M told me that the other time when i helped N put on his jacket before nap, he woke up suddenly crying cos it was too warm. uh oh... hahaha.. looks like i shouldnt be too quick to assume that they'll feel cold. guess the Cove has adjusted the air-conditioning to be warmer too hehe!

then, i convinced my OB project grp to go suntec for Astons celebratory lunch with me! :) poor them, all so tired, hungry and "seh" still got to walk walk walk so long b4 we finally enjoyed our meal... hee hee. photos up another time. anyway, that late lunch (3 pm) was super filling, and after lazing somewhat, we settled at MOF nextdoor (hurray for empty tea time cafes, 30% student discounts and MOF priviledge card! muahaha) and had the shortest YET most productive OB project meeting to date. See, satisfied people and nice environment plus good food works wonders for brain cells k.. i bet if i was in school, i'll be too sian to contribute anything. (oops.. :P) kudos to amy who as usual is the one who gets us started... many thanks gal :) great job :) oh and happy belated bday.... hahahaha... hope u enjoyed ur mini bday celebration eating brownie with melting ice cream and SABOTEUR!!!

speaking of which, i have really started the saboteur craze among the few of us ever since i intro-ed that game... yest's game was really the ultimate. i will forever rmmr how sherlene successfully conned EVERYONE into believing she's a gold-miner so much so that Evie unblocked her, only to have Sherlene bomb up a path! AND THEN, justina also declared she was a saboteur! oh MAN.... so cunning! she was the one who replaced the path that i bombed lor!!! sneaky... hahah... but really really great moves by these 2 lil darlings :) will miss them.. just glad we got to work on these last few projects tgt! :) hope we keep in touch and meet up for SaboTeuR gatherings!!! muahahha....

so, that super efficient OB meeting ended b4 5pm... couldnt believe it was so early, thus i tempted dot into shopping at cotton on with me.. lol.. and we spent an hour there on some pretty decent buys. so, quite happy too.

journeyed home, got a seat on the crowded mrt, ate some veg for dinner, read 8 days in the living room (family always complain i spend too much time cooped up in my room so was attempting to be sociable haha) and the M started making noise about the state of our living room.. think she was somewhat venting her frustrations on bro and i, tho of cos we have our flaws too. but like, er, is it our fault that the printers are placed there and that there are so many wires and plugs in the living room? nothing to do with me wor... so ya best is to keep quiet and do what she wants you to do. so, cleared some of my stuff out of the living and dining room. and then retreated to my room.

9.10pm now, should go sleep.. dear God please help me get a good night's rest and replenish my sleep debt incurred yest... and take away my eye bags too... (oops so bimbo haha).

happy :) shall blog about the things i like and would love to pamper myself with another time... hahhaha....

it's a sunny saturday afternoon and i am lazing on my bed, intermittenly editing the final report for submission on monday, with many long breaks in between spent watching "Fathers and Sons" (TVB hk drama)

gonna have lunch soon then go CNY shopping with my family :)

i guess the urgency of the LAST 2 ASSIGNMENTS of my poly life hasnt really sunk in yet that's y i am still feeling relatively relaxed as of now. haha. Or, maybe it's due to my typical 'last minute syndrome' and the fact that i have wonderful group mates who are accomodating to my working style.. and who get things moving when i slack. hee. I hope that i do pull my weight though and make up for all my sian-ness during project meetings with my last min work! :D
