Monday agAin ..

Its Monday yet again - the funs all over and now its back to seriuos stuff - maybe :P .. Its a week after the Eid festival and the ongoings are still fresh. People are still visiting family and friends and i havent finished my visitations - just dont seem to have the time for it ... And i feel kinda lost probably cos i havent been that consitent in my writing - it seems i feel sorta lost when i dont write - like sometimes missing and that applies to (...........) - hahaha just kidding or not .. who knows .........

It was a long day at work and suprisingly some parents still keep their kids at home i guess other people have bigger families than others who knows .. i do wi sh they hadnt though - few more weeks and the kids would be out of school - it just gets to me when they keep their kids away from school and i have to repeat the lesson - its a tad unfair for the other kids but i guess thats how it is - i wont complaint - if its for the betterment for the kids i say why not ... anyways ..

We've had scores of people come visit since the second day of eid - dishes and more dishes - sometimes i wonder if we could use paper cups and plates next year - i mentioned that to mom and she raised her eyebrows and said are you nuts? I just laughed i told her sometimes i think i am - go figure it comes with the territory ... I think i ate a little too much too - i promised myself that will start back on my diet come november 1st then i remember i had a wedding dinner on Saturday and i havent finished visiting my other relatives - im such in a dilemma - what to do what to do ...

Eid usually lasts for a month but i think ill close shop after two weeks heheee.. cos it looks like my cakes and cookies are running out - we didnt make much for the house this year - we did more for my moms cake business but we have enough though and if the cookies finish i could always bake a cake hopefully it turns out well this time round with no mishaps or what not ..

i busted my knee a few days ago which made it hard for me to walk, sit , stand and bend (for prayers) - it just hurt so bad i had to lay down and keep it straight. Someone asked me to play hookey from school today :P but im glad i didnt listen to them cos miraculous my knee feels so much better (knock on wood). The kids brought cookies to school to share with their friends - which i thought was really sweet .. so at break time we all shared the festival cakes and cookies - the kids had a fun time doing that so did i .

School holidays start in approximately 19 days and i am doing a count down. In between now and then it will get pretty busy - reports and evaluations for teachers and kids and also with the kindergarten 2's graduation and concert - brings back memories of my own school concert when i did a malay dance (i am not even gentle at it :P) and then did an indonesian song poteng bebek angsa - loosely translated slaugthering the geese hahaahah damn that sounded so bad hahahah - goes to show how bad my translation is :P .. I can remember the costume i was in .. i wonder what ever happened to those kids i danced with.....

Other things on the agenda - the light a million campaign lighted candles stands at 849 047 as i write this - and you guys can keep lighting them so it will reach the million target by december 31st please please go here if havent already

Tomorrow i think i am going to Borders after work for some ME time actualy me and the books cant wait! and then off for some cuppa or maybe the bay depends on what im the mood for .. btw i am trying to give up Starbucks .. actually someone challenged me too - kinda like hinting maybe you could give it up all together he said .. Inspite of that i still hold 3 of my fav Starbucks close to my heart - Raffles City, Simei and Liat Towers i like the ambience and the service well for the most part - it used to be the one at Changi Airport T2 but they since changed it into a Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf which serves a really good chai latte ..


All in all its been a good start to the week . The haze is in its healthy range and we're all happy and i dont feel as lost cos im writing though i miss "c" like i always do .. speaking of which he has been coming into my dreams a lot more lately - not like im complaining .. Like this morning - it was like waking up to him that probably sounds freaky but i thought it was kinda nice :P ... i just dont know why but its been like that these past few mornings . And everytime i wake up i remember whispering to myself have to tell him something abd then i try to loook for some sort of message from him - then i am off to la la land again for a moment but one things for sure it just felt like he was there - or just coming out of my dream - watching over me kinda - i seriously have no idea why i am dreaming or feeling like this - any ideas anyone?
