Monday, December 3

Today we met with the new batch of kids. Somehow, I don't feel as attached to this group as compared to the first group, although they are quieter and definitely more obedient.



The new batch has more boys than girls. Maybe it plays a part in me feeling less attached to them?



We played the same old game for ice breakers again. The masking tape game with everyone squeezing to remain in the square. I quote from the kids: How does squeezing together like that help us get to know each other? Its so dumb.


I TOTALLY AGREE.



Later on the kids were given a chance to ask as many questions as they want to us, the camp leaders. As predicted, the boyfriend girlfriend question came up quite a few times.Other questions include: Where do you stay? What are your hobbies? Do you own a car? What is your favourite colour?(To which I answered BLUE and my partner said BLACK...and it adds up to be BLUE-BLACK!



A little girl zhen ying seems to be quite attached to me, considering the fact that she constantly wants to partner me even on the first day and loves to hold my hand. Thank goodness her choice of attack(poking in the ribs) is diverted to yan ming instead, since she thinks im too nice to be poked. Haha.


Except for the one time...
ZY: I wanna poke some one....
me: Who do you wanna poke? *glances at partner meaningfully*
ZY: Guess who?
me: Aiya, I no need to guess also know liao...its him la! *nods pointedly at partner*
ZY: *giggles and poke me hard in the rib*
me: *screams*
Yan ming: *sniggers*


Surprisingly this class is super efficient in carrying out experiments and we've completed everything in today's module before even 4 o clock! Which only signifies one thing...more time to play!!!



As expected, the kids wanted to play Ice and Water. Dang. And our teacher came up with a stupid rule including safe zones! And you can be sure that many cheating cases appeared...yan ming got himself surrounded by 3 or 4 little girls throughout the game, all wanting to either poke him or catch him. But according to him, they were "attracted to him like magnets"...



Ah wells, I shant say much bout that daring statement of his...



Today when i came home i received a letter from Kay. She actually wrote me a letter! And not only that, she enclosed a soft toy dog in addition to the one she already gave me that day!! Im so touched by her gesture! And she has made it certain that I would have no excuses not to reply to her as she added several stamps in the letter too. Plus a pending invitation to her bbq as well as her email address, home number and handphone number. She's really such a sweet and dear girl.




I saw Beverly and YuYing today in Sheena's class! Hope they were enjoying themselves...im really missing them after they left...especially Janelle and Wei Tze and all the rest...Damn. Why didnt I take more photos of them????



Alright, since its pretty late now, I shall go to sleep. Dream of the kids. Wake up tomorrow morning to take a bus. Reach Tao Nan and see the new batch of kids again. Hope that I will start to like them more.

its really tiring
