Yesterday I didn't have the time to update my blog because both monday and tuesday I went out till very late. Monday I went to buy clothes and Tuesday I went to collect my spectacle. When I wore my spectacle, the children was like, "Miss Tan why are you wearing a spectacle?" They are so fascinated by my spectacle that they didn't pay attention in class. I'm sorry about it but I can't stop myself from wearing, I need to look at words. Then the moment I wear my spectacle, my K2 children's head look so small. HAHA!
Yesterday Eason nearly kiss me! I was wiping him after bath and he was so happy that he suddenly bend forward and wanted to kiss me. Lucikly I was holding on to him. Then he said shyly, "Opps! Sorry." HAHA! He is so cute! This week after nap time I'm going over to T class to help. I'm tired and I need God's strength. One of the toddler, Rachel, called me aunty!!!! Ahrx! HAHA! And Gavin called Huang lao shi ah ma! The 3 years old children is so fun but they kept crying. Thank God I don't find their crying irritating.
Today one of my child has an accident. I don't know what happened to him but one of the lao shi came and told me that the child is bleeding. The moment I heard the word "bleeding" I was anxious and quickly went to take a look. It was quite serious and I immediately bring him to find teacher. Thank God one of my class lao shi came out at the right moment. I pray that the child will be blessed and the Holy Spirit will come and fill that place and protect everyone of us.
Actually I have lots of things to say, but I think I was my fever burns my energy and I can't remember other things that happened. Lord please take away my fever so that I can go to work to finish those work that I haven't finish. Thank You Lord Jesus!:)

Lady of contentment
As usual I read the chapter and did the quiz. I got the "Living The Secret (More than 31 points)". It says: Like the apostle Paul, you have learned the secret of contentment. You do not defraud yourself by attaching too much emotion to simple events or serving guys with an ulterior motive. You monitor your own emotions, and you try to help your friends monitor theirs because you know that real happiness and contentment is not based on circumstances (which can change), but on the eternal truth of God's love for you. This is a powerful tool that will enable you to connect with God in the midst of any situation. You believe in His goodness, which is the foundation of your contentment, and you will taste of His goodness as a result.

Laugh together
"A cheerful heart is a good medicine"-Proverbs 17:22. Laughter is one of the best things you can do for your body-and your friendship! A good laugh reduces stress, diverts negative emotions, leaves a great clean feeling, changes your perspective, and exercises and relaxes muscles. Laughter is a "positive connection" that helps to create happy times and great memories with friends.

God is good all the time.
I didn't go for work today! I miss my K2 children very much. In addition, I have lots of undone work waiting for me to finish! I hope I can get back to work and finish everything by Monday or latest by Tuesday. Lord please help me with that!
OK let me tell you what happened to me that it blocked me from going to work. I was happily bathing and suddenly I accidentally kicked the floor and it bleeds a lot. I thought it was just bleeding because I cut myself, but I saw a black line below the cut. It means the foreign body cut my skin and went inside and stayed that. I was quite scared but after I prayed for God's help, I was calmed down.
I quickly finish my bath and in the process of bathing, I rested my right feet, that was injured, on the short platform between the small drain. After some time, it started to hurt and the moment I bring up my feet, I saw blood flowing down very quickly and there was a lot of blood. I was so scared that I quickly lifted up my leg letting my feet face me.
After bathing, I called my mother for help. She was actually on her way to work but rushed back to help me. She wanted to squeeze the foreign body out but I was too scared to allow her to do that, because I scared it might go deeper instead of coming out. So she she brought me to see the 24 hours doctor. The doctor examined the wound and wanted to refer me to Mount Alvernia which is a private hospital. I was worried that I couldn't claim the medical fees if I didn't go to the government one.
So after that I was referred to CGH A & E. I went through triage and then consultation, X-ray and lastly the OT room! Inside, I was asked to lie down and it was very very cold. I thought the doctor will just cut my skin and take out. Yes, they did that but they said I need to have LA (Local Anesthesia). My reaction was "huh~?" I have no choice because it is a must if not it will be even more painful. The moment the needle goes in, I was screaming and crying at that same time like someone just died. It was so painful that the range from 0 to 10, my answer will be 10. It's that painful.
I even forgets to have my morning devotion and I have no appetite to eat for the whole day. Since morning till now, I only drank one packet of milo and one bowl of fish noodle. Thank God I still have the strength to go for cell group to praise God for everything that happens. So thank You Jesus. God answered my prayer too. When I was waiting for my turn, I considered quite long whether I should go to the toilet. I pray that they will call me after I come back from the toilet. By faith I went to the toilet, and praise God the nurse called me immediately I reached the waiting area! God is good all the time.

Be sensitive
Sometimes we may hurt someone's feelings without really meaning to. We may, without thinking, poke fun at a friend for something he or she is sensitive about. Friendships can rise and fall at moments like this. It's very important to be sensitive to the feelings of your friends and not humiliate them in front of others. It's equally important to apologize if you have offended.

Thank You Lord!:)
Children are always fighting over sitting beside me. I have no choice but I need to either put the special needs children beside me, if there is any, or put those that are very difficult to handle one. When I can't sit with them, they gave me a sad face. During small group time, I taught them how to play UNO and they like it. It's my first time teaching them in a group. Although it might be difficult but it's very interesting to teach them. One group with seven children is a very big group. God please give me the knowledge to teach the children. Thank You!
Nap time was very boring because there is nothing for me to do. I get to calm down Shi Kai and brought him to sleep. He was playing during nap time so was being punished to sleep with N class. I love his younger brother, Shi Xuan a lot. He is so chubby and cute. He is always nodding his head when I tell him something, but sometimes he nod and didn't do anything. HAHA! Can't blame him, because he is a special need child.
After my duty, I went to print loads of notes out for Ms Low. There is so much for me to complete. There is a lot of work for me to complete. I hope to comeplete by this friday. God please help me to finish my work by this friday. Thank You! Still have to prepare the books for Ms Low to teach. Jesus please help me to be able to find everything that we need. Thanks!
After nap time, I went over to K1 class to help out because Cassandra didn't come. I find that my chinese is horrible! I can't believe that I don't know how to write seven in chinese! Han Yu Pin Ying and those words is so difficult for me to teach them. When I start to teach, I will start to say in chinese which I'm not suppose to. Lord please lock my knowledge inside my brain so that it won't come out. Thank You!
Today the T class came in to school. I was turning at the corner and I could hear crying toddlers. Most of them are crying so badly that I feel like hugging them. I heard that it won't stop until after about half the year. Actually some still cry when it's near end of the year. Poor children. Lord please bring comfort and love to the toddlers. Thank You Jesus!
I'm enjoying my work and am loving it, but I don't like to bathe them when they wet their pants. It's because it's a lot of hard work and sometime they don't have anymore clothes, we have to find in the cupboard for them. So tedious! God please give me the strength and energy to do all these things. Thank You Lord!:)

Wonderful start
Wonderful start of the year. Everything went quite smoothly except that the children kept misplacing their shoes. Most of the K2 children kept going back to the K1 classroom. Wei Jun even went back and want to put at the K1 pencil case basket. So funny. Wei Kai took the cup and plate for teabreak and went to K1 classroom. But I can't blame them because it's just the first day of school.
When I was bathing Josh, he was happily singing songs while washing his body. When he washed his leg, he will sing something like "wash my leg, I wash my leg". The whole time he is washing with instructions given by himself. He is so cute! HAHA!
I'm starting to feel the challenges and everything. Ms Low taught me lots of things and I can feel the stress. There is so many things I need to do and learn. It's going to be a tough one but I'm going to do my best in everything. I can do all things through Christ who strengthen me. Yeah! HEHE~
So every class meeting I'm going to act like a secretary, writing down notes while they are discussing matters. Every point I have to quickly write down. I need to hurry myself in everything I do. Temperature taking and bath time was too long. I got to buck up. There is this verse that always serve as an encourager to me whenever I need it; "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:13)" Thank You Jesus!:)
