know who helped to make my day a bit better today?
a few of my SJAB cadets.
something they said just hit the jackpot the right way.
the glow in their words lightened me.
hongying walked past and said "bye" to me.
she said she's not feeling well and was going home.
we had a small talk and her popping up
gave me a chance to care for her.
that made me felt better.
an irritating incident in class made me pull this kid aside to talk.
initially he was apprehensive about this talk.
the usual gangster look, non-stop shaking of legs.
at one point of our talk, his eyes softened.
when i requested that he stopped shaking his legs,
he did it, without any protest.
i felt we had a good talk,
but the bell went off.
i hope to catch his eyes again, soon.
zech bought me a cup.
totally my kind of colours and designs.
everything was nicely wrapped up, with a cute card of a dog.
he gave the present, for no reason at all.
clairin, chee kang and lay yan went past and said bye.
they caught me
while i was preparing my angry face at the kids.
i didn't have a chance to say goodbye properly.
but they smiled back.
all these made today so much bearable.
thankyou.
