UnGlamorous Week
.
While abang & myself are counting down the days till i get home, i didn't know Amy and her brothers are counting down the number of lessons left with me. At the moment, they counted 20 till the 2nd last week of May. They see me at least 4 days out of a week. They made me feel so bad whenever they ask who is gonna teach them once i leave. They even beg me to stay with them till they reach 20 just like me and by then they would not need a tutor anymore. cute kan? The good news is the kids have something else on their mind. The family will be moving closer downtown and all three are gonna attend a very prestigious school. =) I'm happy for them.

I've been dreading to attend school this whole week. I fell sick last Thursday evening and slept the whole day thru. 16 hours i'm sure. The flu bug was hitting hard on me. The bodyaches, blocked nose, sniffles, red sorethroat, constant sneezing n fever all at once.. Took over the counter medicine and felt better when the new week started. However it got worse when Aunty G fell sick. She had strep Throat. Very contagious and she's not allowed to enter school. After my 8 days of sniffling and the never ending complains about feeling sick, woke up on a Wed morning and Aunty G announce tat she is gonna take me to see the doc. WHY? WHY? WHY? I didn't wanna get the same shot on the bottom like she did. Most importantly i didn't want to pay over hundreds of dollars for just a visit. After an hour in the doc office, i got some pills and some NASTY stuff to spray into my nostrils. All for 200SGD. Nonsense kan?
.
Even though i wasn't feeling well, i still attend school every single day. I have responsibilities there and i can't back off the very last min. But i did turn down 3 babysitting job offers. I'm not gonna get any babies sick. On the day i visited the doc, both teachers of Class 11 was not in school. Aunty G and family had a medical cheackup for their Visa and the assistant teacher's son was not feeling well either. The poor me was in charge that day and i came home yelling at aunty G how her class had bullied me that day. Crazee, Madness, pulling Hair Day! Nobody was listening to me. Maybe i just didn't have the energy to contain them. They did backflips in class. One complains of a 'fake' tummyache. The other was SUPER rude to me when asked to finish his work. Today when i came to class again, one by one came up to me and said sorry. Was confused at first.. haha! But that was sweet.. They must have gotten some Lashings from Miss Rozina (they are pretty scared of my aunt!). Hahahahaha... Miss Rozina even warned them not to Bully her 'baby'. A young boy came up to me and asked "You are a baby?" with a shocking expression on his face. I don't think i look like his 1 month old baby sister. =)

So i guess that's about it.. My not so GLAMOROUS Week (tissue in hand, skin peeling under the nose, dry lips.. sunnguh tak cantik la! heh..) No school on Fri.. Yeah! But a babysitting job at nite.. Kaching$$$Kaching~! haha... Have a Great weekend guys...
