Alo, peeps..

No skool todae..New classmates requested a change in e timetable so today n tomolow, ther'll aint gonna be skool..Dey pushed e classes to e 17th!! Dammit!! Tats my anniversary day!! =S

Went to class..tot i was late cos mbak woke me up late.. =P I expected quite a number of classmates since my old class had 37 students..E biggest class eva at LC..Den as they passed along the attendance sheet, i realised tat ther are onli 16 students, includin me..

I also realised..i am e onli malay..probably e youngest too..ther's one more gal whom i tink is either same as as me or maybe a year younger..haiz..when i found out abt being e onli malay, i felt like crap..who's gonna haf lunch wit me..who's gonna fast wit me..4 e whole of e fastin month, ther are no breaks..Full day classes for e whole fastin period..

Luckily, Ruth, my former classmate, is in e same class wit me..n so is Doris..tat cheered me up a lil..but it was rather depressin to noe u r alone..

Depression aside..Most of my classmates are chinese..no indians..one indonesian..most i presume are in their early, mid or late 30s..U shld c them after lunch..they can barely keep their eyes open..hehehe!!

I sat btw 2 ladies..PK n Jenny..Both of them said they are considerin to drop out!! Yikes..wat e hell..dis is onli e first day!! Received e first assignment, wher i paired up wit PK n Jenny..Pk is reli sweet..She kept tellin Jenny nt to drop out..But if e both of them are reli goin to drop out, den i will haf to stick to another grp for e asgmt..haiz..

Jenny was all whiny n sayin she's too old to study..den y she sign up for e first place..PK said tat she wanna study so get better prospects..Both intended to stop studyin after dis coz..I juz said to them tat dis coz is onli 5 months long so juz bear wit it..Anyway, they are sponsored or somethin..So if dey completed e coz, they will receive a certain amt of money..4k..tats wat i heard..Wah..being paid to study..wat luxury..n can still complain..

Hmmmm..Rain is pourin now..Reli heavily..Lets continue..

Jenny was sayin not expect to c her on Monday as she is reli tinkin of droppin out..U noe wat..Quit now, e better..So i can stop listenin to ur whinin..I shld be e one whinin..well i am now..juz a lil.. =P

Dis DPEL coz of mine is 5 months long..I hope it will pass very fast..It'll be emotionally, mentally n physically drainin..Its not like my DPET coz..tat was soo much fun..Now its serious work..My lecturer for dis module is Doc Arul..yes she's a doc..Did a PhD in preschool education..wah..my new role model.. =)

She gave us a brief talk abt wats to expect n wat is expected of us for dis coz..My skool is accrediated wit University of Wales n dey juz came down to e skool 2 weeks ago..Dey wanted wateva research we do in class to be implemented when we are having our practicum..New regulations..wat e hell..i am nt even workin now..U expect e childcare or kindergarten tat i will be attached to later will be open to wateva implementations/suggestions tat i will be ordered to impose?? My lecturer even said tat its a mistake to make dis coz full time as we r actually required to be workin at e preskool settin so we can easily implement wateva we haf studied..

My lecturer wasnt happy when she found out tat half of my classmates has no preskool teachin exp..She said exp will command respect..how to be a principal or supervisor when u haf no exp as a teacher..u will nt be able to understand e stress of e teachers..i totally agree wit her.. =)

I hope to be able to get good grades for dis coz..it aint goin to be easy if u haf a whiny team member..PK, i am reli tankful tat even tho u r considerin to drop out as u r afraid u wun be able to cope, u still wanna pursue dis coz as u wanna complete DPEL..U will be neutralisin all e negative comments from Jenny..dis coz will qualify us to be principals or supervisors but wit classmates like Jenny who has no motivation to study, will eventually be qualified to be a principal or supervisor if she decides nt to drop out..scary..imagine e motivation she gives to her teachers when she, as e head, gives up so easily..

So much for my first day..

Since i'm nt skoolin for todae, i am fastin..Same goes for tomolow..Saturday, i will go to JB wit my mum n sistaz to tempah baju..Hopefully, my aunts will join us cos e more, e merrier.. =)

Dearie, tankie u for e tag..it was a wonderful surprise.. =) Dearie n i made an agreement to write down a wishlist for our anniversary..4 things tat we desire..1 food item tat we r craving n lastly, wher we wan to spend our anniversary..Aint he sweet?? He was e one who intiated dis wishlist..But i am in a dilemma..I dun wish for any items!! i am contented wit wat i haf now.. =P

Here r e pics for e bugis date tat i went wit dearie, aziqa n nas.. =)
