Happy Teacher’s Day to me!

I know I’ve always complained about the heavy workload, the naughty children, the policies etc but honestly I can’t think of any other job I’ll want to do. I’m someone who needs variety in my job from time to time, and I love children. I love being around children. Being able to teach and help the children as they grow up enriches me. I know I’ll probably not get this level of satisfaction from other jobs. That said, I do wish on administrative levels, the burden for teachers will reduce!

I thoroughly  enjoyed yesterday’s celebrations in school. The concert was entertaining as usual. One meorable moment, when the Pri 2 Can-Can dancers lifted their skirts and kicked their legs high, the children shrieked and laughed, covering their eyes. One boy even came to my colleague and said solemnly, ” I saw her underwear”.  Oh they’re so cute sometimes.

Last night’s Teacher’s Day dinner was really fun. The theme Bollywood meant everyone was colourful and glittery. Many colleagues complimented me on my Anarkali Suit, I love my suit as well! Those who wore sarees were beautiful. They were glittering as they walked around the room. Hopfully I’ll get to own one beautiful glittery sari one day! Though I’ve no idea where I’m going to wear it to.

I finally have an iPhone 4! Dear Jon got it for me as my HTC is halfway dead. A little sad the HTC couldn’t last, but I’m not complaining! I now see the hype about the iPhone. It’s so…. short of a better word, FUN! I’m enjoying the apps and games. In fact, I like one of the apps Awesome Note so much, I bought it.

Awesome Notes basically does almost everything I want it to do. I want to jot notes, set reminders, have a To-Do list that I can check off, save photos of places that I’ve been to and of cos it has to be simple to use.

Unfortuantely when I browsed the apps, more often than not they do only one task, at most 2. Hence when I found Awesome Note can do so many things for me, I bought it. Small price to pay for the huge convenience it brought me! I’m still exploring the program, but so far I’m very satisfied with it. The folder colours and icons are also customisable.

Now I’m waiting for Jon to get his iPhone 5, then we can Bump each other!
