you're the one for me >>
but I do not know who and where you are........... < ">

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.

Just needed to do this. / Monday, July 20, 2009 @ 11:49 PM
Just needed to do this.

I promised updates right so here I am. Time check: 11. 50 pm. Again, I should be sleeping by now. Just came home, iron my clothes for tomorrow, pack my bag, it all takes up at least 1 hour before I get to go to bed. Plus, I really really hate ironing, really hate it. If given a choice, I would prefer hiring someone to iron all my clothes and tudung so I will not ever have to do it again.

Last week was busy week, I think I have been so busy that I forget to plan for meal times. I tried bringing chicken and some veggies on one of the days and it tasted good. I actually felt full after eating that.


Yes! I ate the tomatoes too!!Its actually honey cherry tomatoes so its not sour. Its sweet and nice!

Partner and me were able to rearrange the classroom so that we have different corners and spaces for different teachers and activities. I think I love the new arrangement, the whole room somehow looks more spacious.


Since there was no PASE on Friday, I had initially booked Edlyn's KB and NB classes. I was actually so looking forward to it because her KB classes on Thursday rocks. However my guest from Wed's open meeting was available on Friday so I had no choice but to go do the follow up. While I was excited, I was also a bit bummed because its really rare that we get to go to Friday classes due to PASE. By end of this month, Edlyn's KB classes on Thurs will be gone and it will be on Fridays and I will not be able to make it!

I was there early so I took the time to just sit and enjoy the scenery. I rarely get to sit down and relax, its so not me. I am usually rushing here, running there, jumping here, crawling back, I hardly spend any time sitting down and just enjoying the view. Its funny because I am always there rushing to go to Maulana for prayers that I hardly get to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Nevertheless, I wanted to make sure my time was well spent, and so it was. The follow up was awesome and now we are already working on a new list. So basically for these few sign ups, we only worked a 1 week on their list and we move on. How exciting!

We ended around 10 pm and it was a last minute decision to go catch the latest Harry Potter's movie!! With bestie! I really like the movie and even though I was sleepy, I still did not know how I managed to keep myself awake througout the movie!




Beautiful place.

I clearly remembered sitting here at this same position, same lamp post many years ago after I first graduated from poly. I remember feeling so lost, I remembered that my life was just like this river. I wanted to get to the other side but I simply had no vehicle.

And so me and two friends started writing down all the things we want to accomplish in the next few years. We wrote down there. Right there! Exchanged with each other for safekeeping.

I kept my friend's but sadly mine was lost in the hands of a friend. But was amazes me is that I did not realise that we were practicing the power of written goals. My 2 friends were specific in writing down what they want and they spent so long writing it. And come to think of it, they almost have all that they wanted back then. For me, I did write down, but I was not specific, perhaps that is why my goals are still in the process of becoming a reality.

Truly powerful.

Of course now I make sure I write down my goals. Every where, in my calendar especially because I open it all the time to check my schedule. This time I am clear on what I want.

Saturday. Due to the late night movie, I only reach home at 1 am, went to bed immediately. I did not want to miss BOB, and somehow I managed to wake up in time. I was like a zombie but somehow I found this drive inside me to go anyway, get the calories burned! The class was fun as always and since my appointments got rescheduled for the day, I was free. I decided to stay for LO and then went on a 3.5 km walk on threadmill. By the time I was done, it was 12.25. It was time for Hip Hop. I wondered whether I should join in the class or not. As I looked at the schedule, I saw Edlyn's name for KB at 1.30 pm! Yay! Made the decision to stay for KB.

Hip Hop. Lady instructor. Cutesy. So not me. But I love the song though.

KB was awesome. It was open house so the studio was full! There were also so many first timers and after Edlyn's wishes good luck to all those who just had their lunch, I realise that I was right in front. Behind me was this guy and his girlfriend who was panting away and trying to keep up. Actually Edlyn uses the same routine as on Thursday so I find it easy to remember the steps. I was also referered to the 'advance' student, so weird ah, I may not look totally fit but amazingly I was able to do the routine non stop. Looks like my stamina had increased!

It was also funny that the guy behind be kept making sure he moved back to so that I will not accidently kick him. At one point when Edlyn was at the back of the room, I suddenly felt like everyone was looking at me, my cues and following me.

Cool.

Of course being at the gym from 9.30 to 2.30 was supposed to be exhaustive. But it was not. Went home to rest, felt good. Hmm, I have done my part in fighting the fat cells today.

Took my parents out for dinner. Food was ok. I cannot finish the rice on my plate because I was too full. I feel sad wasting food. Perhaps thats why I looked like how I am today. Sympathy towards food.


Time well spent.

I have been super annoyed at work recently. Honestly, being on duty from 6.30 am to 8.00 am is no joke and I really hate it because it eat up my breakfast time, my 'check email' time. I have no time at all to even reply email. My team mates too have been standing for the whole 1.5 hours every morning and some on us have classes to attend to so it just does not seem fair.

This was today's schedule.
6.30 am: Doing duty aka welcome party
8.00 am: Class starts. (Was late because students were still coming down at 7.55 am to have their temperatures taken)
12.oo pm: Free period. (Finally!)
12.05 pm: Lunch at workstation
12.15 pm: Call from GO, a parent is here to see me (impromptu)
12.30 pm: Bell rang. (Half eaten lunch still at workstation)
1.30 pm: Class ends. Quickly send out email to a parent.
1.40 pm: Parent call on phone.
1.45 pm: Continue eating the half eaten lunch.
2.00: Class starts.
3.00: Class ends. AP came over, talk for a while.
3.15: Leaves classroom.
3.25 pm: Leaves school with partner

You see why I am still rearranging my timetable to make sure I have at least some time to breathe.

I was also incredibly annoyed because I cannot find any time to do the admin work like the 3sss thingy. Aiyo. It just does not make sense to do this forever.

Other than that, it shall be an awesome week!! Awesome overview today! We are exploding with growth! Woohoo.
