Another Spring Issue

Pollen on West Lake in Hangzhou!

Seven Dwarfs

Dopey- I love this character to bits!

Grumpy- When I am overly tired and when I have had to teach for the longest time, I live up to this character... Well then again it doesn't take much now a days to feel this way some of the time... I guess having only a short break in the morning doesn't help the cause at all... That was what it was for me yesterday I had the lovely darling of K4 come for their visit and standing and squatting beside them doesn't help my knees...which leads me to...

Doc- I need one of those now...Is there a Doc in the house? With the new Swine flu floating around (What a name for a flu virus!) and Hand Foot and Mouth disease going round as well... What doesn't kill you makes you stronger so I have been told!

Happy- I can't wait for the weekend... Finally another long weekend in the making and I am going to do something or other... Like people say, "whatever floats your boat..." I need something to keep me in my happy spot

Bashful- LOL any comments here would be welcomed

Sneezy- Spring is the trigger for most people... The sufferers of hay fever and allergies! What a welcome to the warmer weather... It is a pretty sight but it brings on the suffering for many a people

Sleepy- That's what I feel right now! Then again that is how I always feel most of the time... There is never enough time to sleep! Some people were designed to be morning people and some people were not! I am definitely not a morning person at all! There is no doubt about that... I would give anything to put my alarm on snooze and keep sleeping till I absolutely have to get up and that means dragging myself out of bed!

All in all there is at least one of the 7 dwarfs in all of us!

Boing Boing Boing

Spring has finnaly arrived and this is my favourite season of all... 

My passion lies in the flowers...

Done!

The dreaded apprasial season is upon me once again... Guess it is not something I would ever get use to and it is at the end of the day just a part of life so to speak... The not so nice part of life... But it has to be done none the less...

I decided to use one of my best classes for it and had a pep talk with them before the session about what to say and how to behave. It was funny that there are 2 things that were taboo...The kids were on their best behavior when they walked into the class and they had the most angelic look on their face.

Matty walked into the class and he had his cheeky look on his face and he started "Can we... opps no!" as he saw that the "guest" was already in the classroom and he quickly sat down.. The class was so wonderful and it was a full on hour as usual but it was all good...

Now to wait patiently for the final report....

Time to enjoy the weekend!

Tadpole sitting

Right... I have a new profession....

I am officially a tadpole sitter!

Well not by choice but one little sweet Year 2 came in with her box of tadpoles and we talked about what they would grow up into and what they ate. Then she sweetly asked if I could look after them for her for this weekend as she is going away...

Me being me, did not have the heart to say no and now I am looking after tadpoles who are sitting in my room. (Hope none of them die or get cooked from the heat!)
