smile like you mean it...

saturday was fun but gets shitty in the morning cos mum and dad is like mumbling in the morning to clean the house.... was so sleepy but have to wake up.... clean my room, the the house.... all those stuff.... gonna mke sure i have to finish cleaning by 1.... cos at 1 i have the 3m session again.....

was surprised as i look out window and it is very bright.... so i head down yuhua cc with my baby and the next moment, it was raining heavily.... quite a shite..... got a bit wet but well, the important is to come for the lesson....

today's lesson is more about how we trach the kids.... from when, how we teach them..... there's 3 stages of teaching them...

1st- concrete....

concrete is a process where u expose the item to them example of an orange.... let them use their five senses to explore the whole fruit..... let them taste so they get a better idea what is an orange....

2nd - pictorial....

pictorial is a process where u need to let the kids draw the orange.... when they draw the orange, the tends to remember well of the picture and put its in their brain...

3rd - abstract....

abstract is the final step.... in the process of abstract, u'll teach the kid on the name orange itself.... remember, make sure the kids know the pictorial step before u head on to the abstract stage..... if not, the kid might not understand and they will be in their own world again.... kuang kuang kuang.....

right... that was afternoon.... workshop... after the whole thing was finish, i went straight to fahmi's house..... one of his friend from canada was at his house.... so he ask me to join me and kinda chill at his place.... kinda very relax laid back evening..... was abit sleepy though....

went back at around 6 plus to some light nap....... after this gonna head down to a party a payar lebar..... some angmohs invited us to their courseplay party..... so gonna be a very late night session.... had a dress up and leave house at about 930.... well basically the party was quite a unique one... i've never been to angmohs party but shit, they are just party animals and dont give a shit.... even if we're strangers, they just ask us to have a drink and dance....booze, rum, liquor, beers, wine, u name it, they got it.... but they shitty is, they got a full tables of those, but the drink i chose was inside white plastic bottle which labels, "NTUC FRESH ORANGE..." my god... i drank a fresh orange in a party...... but that's like the only drink that i feel like drinking..... tot of adding some malibu but, better off with pure.....stayed the whole night till morning at their place..... some are hot, others are too friendly.... after the whole thing ends.... we catch some supper at simpang bedok.... i was as usual, hungry..... had a lamb chop and horlicks..... after the supper thingy, we went to east coast....was very shock that east coast is pack with tentages..... so many of them... we reached there at about 430.... chill out at the beach with the angmohs and straight home after this.... was in the car and suddenly i turn, the bus services is already operating.... hmmmm... shites.... i didn't belief i stayed up the whole night for partying.... went back home and guess what, took my nap lor!!!! hehehehe... aniwae, the day was ended with fun, sexy and cool..... cheers~

this week is totally a roller coaster ride.... just finish my exams last monday.... then on tuesday i stayed home to finish up my reports..... and on wednesday, went to school to hand in the report.... and it's been accepted by my supervisor and that is so cool... why??? coz that's the end of my polytechnic days...... had the last lunch with hamri..... kinda feel unbelievable bcoz it's like only yesterday we are first year..... everytime i put on go to sleep by radiohead, i feel like im on the bus heading for my EG1 morning lecture...... and, first year, i never arrived late.... im a good student during the first 2 years of polytechnic and scored pretty well.... only the last one year, im abit slack.... why?? not sure.... hehehehe.....

well that's about, im gonna tell what happen after wednesday.... on wednesday evening, i head to changi coast adventure center.... edgefield primary school had their primary 5 camp..... so 4PM kinda called in for my help as im involved in their camp last year to become their facilitator and instructor.... this year, i arrived quite late.... but arrived just on time for the night walk activity.... i was in-charge for the group name, fearless..... i got paired with a female facilitator from millenia institute, and her name is juraidah.... hehehehe.... kinda shock cos that's my elder sister name.... but she's way younger than m OLDER SIS!!!.... hehehehe.... after the introduction of myself and her, i did a few ice-breaker games with the students.... and they did respond but they are very irritating and likes to fidget..... cant stand them but im cool.... i dont really scold them..... treated them like my own little brothers and sisters..... but they tend to step over my head..... well, kids, u gotta understand them..... the night definitely went great....bcoz i slept in the canteen with the planes are hovering on top of us bcoz our camp is just beside the runway.... well, i tried my best to sleep cos it's gonna be a long day tommorow....the best moment is, i slept with a long canteen bench and with my kain sarong... hehehehehe....

second day of camp was great..... i was not in charge of kayaking anymore.... hhhhhmmm.... im in-charge of the body harness.... i have to wear for them the body harness and that really sucks.... tighten the harness for one students is ok.... but not for hundred of students.... hehehehe.... did the harness thing from 9am to 5pm.... had some funny experiences from the students and really, we got a hell of a laugh..... well, if not for ns next year, i would volunteerily want to join.... campfire was fun yet, i feel sad..... it's so fast and we'regoing back tommorow.... i sat with "fearless" and the boys, some lie on my legs and some on my shoulder..... we sing the campfire song..... we shout at our miss little syaza.... they follow what ever i did..... when i shout, they shout.... when i laugh they laugh.... when i disturb them, they tickle me.... every moment with them are priceless.... they ask for my number and i just give a good stare...... campfire was the the longest ever moment i spent with them and it really bonds me with the kids....

today, when we went back.... they feel as if they just lost a big brother..... they kept calling me, brother fearless, brother fearless... i went and smile at them.... ask them whether have they ate..... i overslept my breakfast and juraidah was telling, the kids was asking for u.... hhhhhmmm.... i just feel bad cos i wanna have the last breakfast with them.... thank god at least i get to sleep with the boys at the dorm... hehehehehe.... well, im in a camp fever.... think gonna last me a week before i can move on....

aniwae, just wanna say these.... i would like to thank edgefield primary school for making me the opportunity to become their student leader, instructor... although i've been called teacher, unkle, brother, Mr, i dont mind.... i hope these kids grows up well.... the millenia students, rp and sp students, u guys we great.... even though we have the experience on handling kids, we did it..... 4PM vounteers, u guys never fail for fun, laughter and joy.... all of u keep the camp going and yes... we rocks....

i dont know why im like talking like this but, yeah.... i miss the kids, all of them.... cheers~ to the kids and cheers~ to them again.....

fuck her.... she rejected my freaking report..... i already did 54 pages and she rejected it.... now i have to get back to square one..... endless night of not sleeping again even i just finished my last paper just now..... i thought i could smell victory but defeat came running down to me..... well that doesn't matter.... everyone knows i can do it.... and i'll never give up until my blood is fully dehydrated or if im still breathing....

well that's about the shitty session.... the most important part is, once i sent in my report, im free like a bird.... i'll be who i want to be, i'll be the happy, fun, loving guy again.... maybe.... hehehehe..... well, tomorrow is Valentine's day..... i remembered last Valentine's day i had an acoustic session..... was like only yesterday it happen..... time run so fast..... it's like only yesterday i work for pizza hut..... hhhhmmm.... miss all those stuff..... no worries.... tomorrow Valentine's Day will be at Changi for the Primary 5 camp..... hehehehehe.... i'm gonna date all the Primary 5 girls..... geek... sounds pedofil....

so basically, i woke up early and met hamri to study for my FPQ exams coming up on monday... did lots of assesment and practice but still, the formula wont stick in my head.... think i need to relax and cool down a bit....

afternoon was cool.... went yuhua community center for the 3M thingy.... today's lesson is maths lesson.... gonna learn on how do we introduce numbers to these children..... hands on, practice, number bonding, number pattern and all those shits.... was quite sleepy in the first part of the class but they manage to pull thorugh some jokes and some common sense questions..... i was barely hanging their as my eyes is really gonna close... thank god its only few hours.... oh yah... for those who dont know this, humans learn in 3 different way which is; auditory, visually and kinesthetic.... what's all that???

kinesthetic - u need something to hold, or to write or anything that need practical movement.
visually - i give u the book and u know what's happening... u're world full of pictures ....
auditory - u need to attend lectures cause only sounds can help u learn and pls, dont turn on the radio when u're studying cos u just cant concentrate.


well basically that's about it.... hopefully next week will not be boring... oh btw, the tangram shits really work for kids and also adult who dont know shapes.... hehehehehehehe.... that's all peeps... gotta sleep now.... cheers~

i was back from 3M training.. ok let's start with 3M...

3M is a programme by the community leadership forum, which is called Maju Minda Matematika...
it involves in our reading support program which i usually be busy off every saturday afternoon... well ladies, u have to take note... u cant date me on saturday afternoon because im involve in this program... basically, i've been involve in RSP for quite sometime... maybe exact 3 years... kids in the class make me laugh by the way the react, the way they make mistakes... and the best part, the way they want our attention and love... was riding back home and thought of the first time i was introduce to RSP... i was so blur in the class and kids were like crying, some were running and i just stand there... i dont really know them until today, im like so close to them and when i see kid running, i just feel so 'Meriah'... sometimes life isn't about money and wealth, it's about this things... seeing the kids running around, making one big happy familar... these are priceless moments... moments at the zoo, how my kid tried to wake up the white tiger... i'll just have to laugh to my sleep... goodness, i just wonder, world without kids...

basically, today was abit on montessori... and for real, i dont know what is that... until Kak Marsilah tell about the montessori techniques and how we can use their techniques to educate child especially nurseries... and, handling nurseries is a real shitloads... they can just sit there and do nothing and the next moment u turn and look at them, they are at their own world... so basically, we were taught to use the self-help skills for them...
and for got sake, 'VYGOTSKY' who is that??

Lev Semenovich Vygotsky was a Soviet developmental psychologist and the founder of the cultural-history psychologist... and fuck, he died of tubercolusis also known of TB... that really shitty...

ok that's about the montesori and the vygotsky theories... well, this gonna tell me that my next few saturday afternoons will be busy... and wake up syafiq... u only got few hours to complete your reports... shites... stress syafiq?? nope, but im always cool... anyways, gonna grab my cup of guatemala antigua and my chocolate cookies... cheers~
