it is Saturday. the perfect day to
NUArrr... in bed
We celebrated Racial Harmony Day in school yesterday. As usual, all students and staff were strongly
expected encouraged to be dressed in their ethnic costumes. Or even cross-ethnic ones.
Didn't have the time, or rather, simply just couldn't be bothered (:D) to hunt for one, so i wore my sarong kebaya bought 2 years ago. Well, if you are soooo very free enough to go look through the archives, there was one posted then in july2004's i remember. me in my OH-So-BIG HAIR in it. hiak hiak...
ANYWAY, no need to go waste time looking for that ugly photo..
this was taken yesterday with 2 of my malay kiddos, hehe..
the weather in Singapore has NOT been very kind to us. Imagine being covered up from the wrists down to my ankles in this sweltering heat -_-
i didn't realise the top was abit translucent until one of my girls in the class pointed it out.
They all hor, really very observant -_-
and VERY TACTLESS.
"Teacher! i can see your... your.....erm..."
the hesitation wasnt because she was trying to hint to me without me being embarrassed but was trying her best to recall the word 'bra' -_-
cos together with that warped expression trying to recall, she was doing this obsene action of using her 2 hands to cup her chest
"i can see your... see your........."
in order to save myself from embarrassment, i said, "OK. It's okay Rachel, i know what u are talking about.... OK OK..enoughhhhhh..........."
i could see it coming... and with a DAMNED LOUD VOICE, she proclaimed proudly,
"...
BRA"
tsk.
damnit
That wasnt the worst.
Some kindergarten kids were invited here for a school tour, and they sat in our P1 classes to get a taste of 'studying' in a primary school. We were at Carmena Muses, a cosy corner in our school for some storytelling..
So yours truly was sitting at this piano bench seat, enthusiastically reading a big book to my children who were seated at my feet. Not long after i was into the middle of the story, some children right infront of me started waving frantically to get my attention..
i hate it when children interrupt me while i'm into a book, they've done it so many times so it was second-nature for me to snap back at them with a "What is it now?"
imagine the horror when i saw what they were pointing at.
the sarong i was wearing happened to have a split in the middle.. all the way up to the rubberised band at the waist.. i was seated cross legged and the split actually exposed the whole of my thighs. ARGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
shit
my own class plus 3 classes of kindergarten children -_-
and when i made eye contact with the kindergarten teachers standing at the back, we smiled and they nodded back in amusement.
HAIZ. they find it funny lor
tsk..
this is the last time im gonna wear that sarong kebaya liao.
even thou i must agree the piece is really very nice, the color and the embroided flowers on the kebaya... hahaa...
never mind
some random photos...
my colleagues and i
me with my ex-student.. SUPER REBELLIOUS in that torturous year when i taught him, hahhaa...
but then, kids are kids.. i love them thou they can make u seem like u've survived living hell.
THIS is to melt your hearts, hehe... :)
very cute hor, my children. whahhahhaa....
(btw, tat one in purple is RACHEL, hahahaa.. so cute, but darn naughty..)
she was so funny yesterday..
You know the primary one children, they don't understand everything u say.
u tell them "RACIAL HARMONY DAY" and they would stare back at you with blank faces. they wont know what it means.. so they would connect it to WHATEVER they already knew.
so this Rachel came to me whining like nobody's business, "ms liang..... they all make fun of me!!!!"
me: "who??"
Rachel: "they call me 'Rachel How many days'." (Racial harmony day)
me:
HAHAHAHHAHHAHHAA
