And hajar helped todd.

Oh no. Jus me n komathi for pg, i gg mati today!

Anyway, Komathi say she will come earlier to do her documentation. Since she havnt print and laminated. And she havnt complete the weather chart task hajar gave her.

Guess how early she came?
Hmmm.
Come at 855 instead of 930.
Great:)
But she was nt productive.
Dilly dally. She only manage to Do wap(which was suppose to be done b submitted by ytd) and print documentation.

She Did not laminate the documentation nor Did she do the weather chart.

And wow!
Dilly dally somemore and only Offically step into classroom at 945 when she suppose wrk at 930. What is this man!

Did not prepare home science(when she voluteered to do so last week).
Sooooo sickening.

Sooo frm 930-11, we improvise and conduct own lesson since we cant go outdoor(due to hfmd) and no home science cuz materials nt prepared.

I did crawling wif my chn :) at least it is gross motor activity for this week.




And she... Jus gt her group to do drawing while she use her phone to txt.

I asked about her documentation.
Cuz it is still not up yet.
Supposed to be up by wed. Ohwells.
she and her 101 excuses again.
Tt she duno how to display in frames bcuz those photos tt she develop are horizontal and those frames are vertical.
And she saying smth so off, "i got no money to redevelop photos. I was thinking of claiming money for the photos i develop first before i develop another set of photos".
Omg, if this is the case. She will take forever to develop photos pls!! By the time she develop those photos, its gng be term 3 alrdy. Hahahaha.

Anyway, i Discuss uni stuff wif ms rai. She helped me edit my essay and write up for uni application :)

Komathi went out to buy food. So i get her to buy oranges for home science!

Did home science activity in the aftnn abt 4.
Stay back n complete home science wif all my chn.






Stayed till 530 (though i wrk till 430 today bcuz komathi swap shift with me).
komathi take me for granted cuz i stayed back. She Leave me to send chn off since they r frm my group n she is busy conducting her home science.
Super pissed off.

I Washed the stuff i used for home science. I only wash my group stuff n jus leave her group stuff unwashed. Dun care alrdy.

Left at 530pm, without Doing any changes to the dramatic corner(as i planned to). Bcuz i dun think i can b productive with komathi taking me for granted and asking me to send chn off. Hahahaa.

Komathi has no common sense.
Everyone was helping in one way or another for te dramatic corner
EXCEPT for komathi.
She is of no help, instead she create more trouble.

Hajar asked her to help with putting fishing line on the weather chart. Instead of poking two holes, she poked one -.-!
Hajar asked her to help glue cellophine paper, she wasted cellophine paper cuz she claim it keep rolling up -.-!

Anyway, we had staff Meeting frm 2pm to 4pm.
Main topic is te kidnapping chn cases in singapore and kids-in-charge.

Komathi keep gg toilet.

忘恩负义

Did scent painting todayyyy.
I went to school earlier to prepare materials; food essence, paper, paint.

I starte scent painting with my group. And she too wanted to do scent painting with her group.

She wanted to get drawing paper from mpr room bt valerie was observing vivian conducting lesson, hence she cant go into mpr room.

She asked if i had extras. I told her i had 9, jus nice for my 9 children. But told her i could give her 4 first (cause i pity the chn frm her group. If i dun give, those chn will do nth n lose out in curriculum..)

she didnt appreciate, didnt even say thank u..

Anyway, she went to take paper frm mpr room once valerie is done with observing vivian.

She cut te drawing paper into halves for her group. I was mad at her as she didnt help me cut n "return" to me since i give her 4 jus now.
Maybe nxt time i shld make it clear that i LEND her instead of give her.

Omg, ppl with common sense wld knw how to repay kindness. Guess she is the expection.

anyway, my children love doing art work (:






In the aftnn during chn nap time, komathi went out to get food for herself while i washed my own group apron and the paint brush and plastic plate(tt we pour paint on).
When she is back in centre, i reminded her to wash her own group apron, but she didnt.

At 4.30pm, she was abt to leave when i reminded her again to wash her group apron. And as expected, her reply was "oh ya, i forgot".
Really wonder how many reminders she need.

Anyway, i met lecturer to get letter of recommendation :)
And I jus finish my 3pages essay for wheelock application.

Wheeee. Really hope i can get into uni!!!

Komathi and her 101 excuses

Did lesson, pouring.
Komathi seems lost since i didnt spoonfeed her (tell her what is the lesson today). She quickly flip through the curriculum guide.
And so, i did pouring with my two groups while she did pouring with her two groups since hajar is at the other bay helping out.




Guess what? Halfway through, as i was taking photos of my group, i spotted her using phone, yet again! Sighhhhh.

During chn nap time, I Fill up sponsorship application n wheelock application. Hirah helped me edit my 2-page write up about sponsorship application.

komathi quickly print out the documentation of orange potpourri and home science. I was glad at least she did it(though everything supposed to be displayed by ytd. Ohwells).

Jus when i tot she was doing well, she jus had to come out with stunts. She claim that she got not enough potray photos of home science and cant display it on the protray photo frame that we had. I questioned her for this as i did send about 40 photos to her (4per chn, and i have 9 children. And another 4 on me conducting lessons). She explained that she only recieve 8 photos.
After i showed her my email tt i did send the photos through, she checked her email again and admitted that she recieved it and perhaps she oversee it.
Sighhhh.

Then... Ms rai came into our class and commented on our dramatic corner. Faints. Seems like we have to rethink about a lot of things over again.

When ms rai finished talking, its abt 3 when chn are supposed to wake up.
Komathi then claim that she gt nt enough time to cut te documentation. And she say she has no laminating machine.
Soooooo. Kind hearted me decided to help her laminate.

When i was laminating, i read through the documentation she did. I almost vomitted.
-Spell "Heiirishaa" name wrongly.
-Anyhow write captions that mingxuan like the smell of orange when in fact mingxuan dislike the smell of oranges.
-Title orange n potpourri she seperately print n the border one bigger than another, do i didnt laminate for her the title cuz very off!!

Anyway, for university application.
I am halfway done.
i Collected letter of recommendation from one of my lecturers whom used to teach me back in seed institute. I will be collecting another letter of recommendation from another lecturer tomorrow.

Back at home, I did up my resume.
Going to ask hirah help me edit tmr.
She is really such a great fren :)

Headache, wasnt able to 2-3pages essay for wheelock application. Shall do so tmr.

Discuss with komathi n hirah the pictures to be placed at the park

I finally Did up the bushes with the green paper i folded ytd night. Hahaha.
Wanted to put up butterfly display too. But i got nt enough time to do so..

I confirm the number of children going for musical field trip (i called up parents who did nt return consent form).
And... 21 children out of 26 are going, with 5 teachers. Yay!

she had left by the time she return my call.
She txt me "i know you had forgotten and i wanted to text and tease you say oh hor somebody nv wash the plates hor but nvm teacher hirah will wash the plates cos im nice but end up i didnt do so :( "
She had asked komathi to wash it for me.
Hehehehe.

Hirah felt sry tt she had to ask komathi to wash.
Actually i felt bad tt i forget to wash too.

But hmm... Its always me who wash home science things. So this time, she shld help wat. Sooooo i shldnt feel too bad.

And and....
Hirah told me her conversation wif komathi.
Komathi say "huh i wash the toys then have to wash the plates somemore..."
then hirah say , "sorry i had really wanted to help you with the plates but end up not enough time. i have a class to go to."
then komathi say "cannot just throw the plates ah?"
Hirah say "no... the reason why we buy plastic plate is so tt we can reuse"
then komathu say "then how? no soap like tt how to wash?"
Hirah say "you use the sch normal hand soap lah"

then komathi give her tt black face.

Tsk!
Sometimes we are too nice to komathi tt she just dunno how blessed she is to have such colleagues like me n hirah n hajar.

Soooo. Such small things tt komathi need to do pissed her off. But actually it's expected of her to wash tr things she used (i guess she is jus too used to me washing..)

Enough said of her.

and i finally list down the things Komathi and I had done for the class..
