You can call me Noi! This blog consists of my thoughts. I am just a simple person with BIG dreams! Like the charcoal, hot pressure and extreme heat must be present in order to create a Diamond. I am in the exact same process.

I was shocked / suprised by my colleages yesterday during the PSG meeting. Out of the blue, after the meeting ended, while I was almost in panic mode because I totally forgot to give the parents feedback forms to fill up, these 2 girls sneakily brought out a cake and announce to the unsuspecting parents that I turn a year older on Sat!
Imagine my embarassment! Haha. I was pleasantly suprised and while they were trying to make me blow the candle, I said, "Hmm, I must be the only SNO who celebrates birthday with my student's parents! So lucky!" Haha!
A bit weird to have parents singing for me...I consider myself blessed. I was also totally beating myself up because some parents who left earlier was not able to do the feedback form thanks to my awesome memory. It was also funny when Cat asked to wish to become a 'tai tai', one of the parents exclaimed, "Cannot! Cannot become tai tai, who is going to teach our children?!" Haha. So funny.
Thank YOU ladies. I really appreciate it and I cannot believe they pull it off even when I was the one running the PSG yesterday ;)
Cannot remember when was the last time I had cake for birthday!
Anyway, today Az came to my classroom crying while I was having lessons. I feel so sorry for this boy you know. Sometimes I feel that he comes in even when it not scheduled simply to talk to me and partner. Today he came in crying in the middle of the MT lessons and what I find so annoying is how the other boys react whenever he enters the room. They really do not like him. But I think they find it hard to understand Az and why he behaves in a certain way.
I told him to sit aside and calm down first before I go to him. I continued with lesson, making sure that the other boys were at least going to be occupied for at least 10 - 15 minutes. I have learned not to immediately go to a crying child as he is still feeling emotional and will not be able to think straight. I definitely do not coax. Of course for babies its completely different.
The calming period really worked well and after he was calm, I drew out and asked him to write out (in simple terms) about what happened. Then on another page, I drew a mind map giving him a scenario of what SHOULD have happened. Suprisingly he was able to tell me in logical terms. Amazing.
It is interesting that he chose to come to our class to look for us, not his form teacher, not anyone else.
Such a special child, if only more people can understand him.
Tomorrow is exciting because I have STP! Yay.
If Allah brings you to it, He will bring you through it.
