What a long holiday it has been. :] A long, but most satisfying holiday I have ever had.
I remember how I dreaded the first month (back in December) when everyone else had a job while I stayed at home (for what seemed like forever!) and felt utterly, useless. I guess I was a bit desperate. I went up straight to the childcare centre and asked if they needed a teacher aaand I got turned down that instant. :( It felt horrible. It was the one job I really wanted.
Eventually I gave up on all the job-seeking and just spent my day on anything that made me happy. ^^ Like eating! Manhattan, Seoul Garden, every Fast Food you can think of (Popeye’s/Wendy’s), every Heartlander’s place, Mustafa and even Carousel :D Piggy. Double chin. :B But it felt so gooood. Especially on weekdays, when all the school kids are nowhere to be seen. ^^ 10am movies, Safra bowling, Chinese Garden, Mustafa centre to buy Halal black pepper sausages & peppered fries :D, just anywhere under the sun/rain. Though it meant having to pay $3 a day on transport. 0.0” i think 1/4 of my savings were gone solely on topping up my card. :\ But yeah, the carefree-life must soon end. :( today’s 3rd May which is enlistment day. How time flies…where’s the freeze button when I need it? sigh. What I can hold on now are memories of the time well-spent. :) Really hope two weeks will fly by as fast as possible.
Right now, I’m waiting for a call/calls from schools and from kindergarden centres. :) The wait was worth-while the last time I tried. I got accepted by Mps & yck PAP as a relief teacher and I’ve got two hardworking little students for tuition. ^^ Alhamdullilah…all the resume-writing, the calls and definitely patience paid off. Hopefully May is just as nice as April. I really hope so.
Hmm but while waiting, I guess I do have to occupy my time somehow. Esp Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. 7-8pm: The two of us :D, 9-10pm: The In-Laws, 10-12pm: American Idol, finish up on another story book, back to baking, about time to take my driving licence -.-“, buy the cardigan at NEX :) - although i might be going there alone this time :(, and some other things I better think of soon. :) maybe i should slot some jogging time in between. -.- not maintaining my BMI at all, lol.
May the month of May be a fruitful one, not just for me but for everyone else too. :)
