wah, cleared quite some emails and finally got down to doing some of the admin stuff. This is how you spent your MC, there are more things to be done. Work is piling up, some deadlines are due next week. life is hectic, but as usual, i'll tell myself, i will survive through all these craziness! a crazy person will survive this craziness, a sane person may not.

aiya, this marcus, has not been telling me that he has chinese spelling on tuesday, this morning after much digging, then i realise. since he didn't learn, you can expect his marks. 0!!!! so malu, i told him, no wonder he has to go for chinese remedials in school becos he got a big fat 0 in his chinese spelling. a big fat 0 just like him and me.

mabel keeps a lot of things to herself. so when she asked me to help her print pictures for her science project, i try my best to do it for her. she is a sensible girl, she organises her own filing, she does her homework without being told, she learns her own spelling. now she makes milk for herself and her siblings. she is a sensible girl, but i feel that she keeps too many things in her heart. hmmmm, sounds like me....like mother, like daughter

max, mmmm, i realise that i may have hurt him with my tone sometimes. like when he call me, 'mummy?' and i'm in the middle of something, i will like answer 'what?' in a harsh way, then u can see his face change expression immediately. ok, i promise to be gentle to him, answer him nicely. aiya, sometimes very difficult, too harsh on him, i kena scolded, too gentle with him, people say i spoilt him, show favouritism. it's difficult to strike a balance. actually that is life. always striking a balance.

i wanted to blog about how inconsiderate some parents may be when they send their children to school. one of the school gate is near the bus stop, i usually alight M&M at this gate, then i'll move off for work, which is more conve. i always tell them to hurry to get down and close the door becos we are on the main road and sometimes i can see a bus approaching. and if i see another car behind me which also put hazard light, i will stop a little further up so that the car behinc can fit nicely into the bus stop without obstructing the traffic behind.

this morning, one car stopped in front of me, he stopped right at the entrance. i stopped behind him, the back of my car is definitely obstructing the traffic. luckily there wasn't much traffic at that time. so hurry ask them to alight, be careful not to swing the door and knock the barrier, then close the door.

all this while, the car in front, the mother get down from the back seat, 2 children alight, the mother got back into the car, this time front seat.

then i thought, ok, move off, becos i was quite close, i could not move off if he doesn't move off. then the car didn't move at all, omg, do you need to watch your children walked safely into the school, into the canteen? it's like only 10 steps, they will be in the school compound. so i reverse a little and move off.

inconsiderate parants, really inconsiderate. piu chou nua!
