today i started my first day at work! at a kindergarten/childcare! it was fun! something different. at first, i just stood there not knowing wad to do. i was only there to relief and assist. and the main teachers din tell me anything to do. but after a while, they put me in charge of a K1 class. so supervise them with their english work. it was nice! and i forget whether "I" is "eats" or "eat". haha. but thankfully, i didn't teach the kids wrongly.

and i think one of them is mildly autistic. or maybe he's slow. i dunno but he doesn't talk and he will only write the alpahabet when i ask him to do so. well, gone close to some of the gals and boys. ethen, angela, renea, jamaine...esp angela. though her attention span is v short, but i like it when she comes up to me and rests her hand on my shoulder while i'm sitted. i love all the kids! man...so fast i grew attached to them.

they all stay in the house till 5pm but my work is till 1pm. so i was quite reluctant to leave when i had to today. but it makes me wanna go back there again! and i wonder if i can work the whole of nxt year? but i think my commitment is more towards PHPPS relief if they want me.

but the thing that shocked me is the showering time! both boys and gals literally bare naked in the same room! and i was shocked la. both boys and gals are running around the house naked too! imagine the kind of childhood they will have: "oh! i've seen naked boys before!" yee...i really sympathesize with them. even my fren, aunty christina, doesn't like it.

well, i blew their hair dry with the hair dryer before they go for their nap. and they all call me Teacher Sharon. haha. cute. at least they dun call me Miss Lim. and i'm lookin fwd to meeting them outside the childcare when they call me "teacher sharon teacher sharon!". haha. that will be fun! =)

well, that was the joy. i was also wondering to myself while doing QT at a park today: in a hide-and-seek game, do people find joy in hiding or in being found?

well, i really pray that my boy will not stray. seriously. safe frm any bad influences. i mean, it jus worries me looking at the way he talks and acts. esp after the one word that he said to me today. argh. as much as i'm angry, i'm more hurt and pierced inside than that. i jus pray that the Lord will have mercy on him if ever...dun wanna say anymore...jus too sad...at least for me...
