Pachydermatous
that little boy

Thursday, February 23, 2006

Sometime this week I was teaching a Primary 2 class.

They were a noisy bunch, yet lovable and totally adorable.

I was going through prepositions with them.

There was this particular boy, from the moment I entered the class, all I heard was his incessant chatter.

As I was teaching the class, he was laughing and talking to the boy beside him.

Irritated, I asked him to stand up and repeat what I had just said.

First he didn't stand.

Amused by his audacity, I repeated myself, asking him to stand.

He stood up, but in a way such that it seemed he had his other leg on the chair.

He must be being playful again I thought.

So I told him to cut it out and put his other leg down.

As soon as I said that, the cheeriness left the boys' eyes.

The class became silent.

I walked closer to the boy, there was mumuring in the background.

Realisation smacked right into the core of my being.

He only had one leg.

The students started saying "Teacher, that boy only has one leg!"

His face crestfallen, my heart going out to him, full of devastation.

Right on cue, as if godsent, the bell rang.
Saved by the bell.phew!

I returned to class after recess, and the boy was as cheerful as I saw him initially.

And I realised that he was exceptionally bright for his age as I began engaging the students in discussions and every story telling which they seemed to want more and more.

Later that day when school was coming to an end, the boy came up to me and handed me an origami he had made.

In it was written:

to miss Sha(they can't seem the pronounce my full name)
You are very nice and very pritty and I like your stories
tank you


Awww..shit.. that's how I feel like now..

I'm a HARDCORE................. LEO!

Tuesday, February 21, 2006

Hey people, I don't really agree with some of following says.. But most of it is true for me. Haha.. So enjoy your read.
Most credits go to www.swoon.com. Go there if you wanna find out more about your sign.



Who praises all his kindred ?
Expects his friends to praise them too,
But cannot see their senseless view?

It is the Leo!!!




Introduction
Leo can be among the most arrogant, self-absorbed signs of the zodiac, but also among the most tender and generous. As the lion king of the cosmos, you are a force to be reckoned with — and you'd have it no other way.

Full of ego and the insecurity that inevitably accompanies it, you demand respect. The successful Leo, however, learns how to command it. You thrive on the esteem of others, but privately your self-esteem wavers.

A natural performer, you can be a powerhouse of creative talent, charisma and instinct. You crave the spotlight and take great pains to grace it. But as you mature, your opinion will grow more independent of others. You'll seek a quieter dignity and nobility, not unlike that of an elder statesperson.

Great actors may begin by upstaging their colleagues, but they eventually let their art speak for itself. You'll come to view self-promotion as a crude distraction and get out of your own way. At that point, your devotion to longtime loyalists will overwhelm your temptation to indulge lusty flatterers. As life experience humanizes you, appearances will still matter, but they'll take a back seat to true feelings.



Your rising sign is leo.


Your sun sign is only the tip of the astrological iceberg. Your rising sign — or ascendant — reflects your outer personality, or physical characteristics and image. It's the face you show to the rest of the world. Literally, it is the constellation that was ascending on the eastern horizon at the hour of day you were born.



Mars: leo
Venus: leo


You're the diva of the zodiac. With your electric presence, you need a lover who can match your voltage and keep you on your toes.

Your Mars is in leo You're tough as nails and instinctively honorable; for instance, you'll remain loyal even after you've clearly lost your lover to someone else. Taking a direct approach to love, you are up-front with your intentions. To maintain your energy and interest, you need lots of praise and a bit of a challenge. Look for a zesty lover to match your natural spark.

Your Venus is in leo.You enjoy proving your love. Since you crave similar affection, you'll seek out a partner who can pamper you ; and who can offer loyalty, too. Since you're so passionate and sexy, you'll have some flirtations on the side. Hey, it's that natural star quality you just can't deny.



When you're dating me:

To Know Me: Keep my mind sharp by sparring with me once in a while, and I'll keep you close. I tend to impress my opinions on others, but that's because I know I'm right....

Is to Love Me: When I'm too intense or about to throw a tantrum, I'd dig someone who can crack a well-timed joke. The ability to make me laugh — I like that in a person.

Read My Mind: I'm so straightforward, you won't ever have to read beyond what I present. I can't deal with wishy-washy types, and won't give too much time to dates who are clueless. As for secrets, I don't have many: What I say is often what I'm thinking.

Read My Lips: Ladies and gentlemen, can I have your attention please?


Who's compatible for me?


Compatible Zodiac Signs for Leo
Sagittarius Aries Gemini Libra

Incompatible Zodiac Signs for Leo
Virgo Scorpio Capricorn Pisces Taurus Cancer

Variable Zodiac Signs for Leo
Leo Aquarius

boo hoo!

Monday, February 20, 2006

I spend my holidays washed over and over with waves of nostalgia that has me realising that I'm growing old.

How much fun I had those days.

From the days of screaming like mad souls to playing in the hot sun with our uniforms on to slacking at mac's in the morning and going to school late without getting caught to jumping over various fences to standing outside classrooms as punishments to making new friends and meeting new people everytime and to even falling in whatever you call that.

T'was all so fun!
And I don't want to let go!

ughhhh....

Saturday, February 11, 2006

Today I went for thaipusam early in the morning to follow my friends kavadi. We met at about 7. Guess how long the trip from one temple to the other took? 6 solid hours in the burning sun. I'm left with a splitting headache and flu. And maybe a tad irritated with some people. But met many whom I've never seen a in long time. From my childhood friends to my primary school friends to my sec school friends and the list goes on. Went home. Bathed. Slept. Never nursed my tumulous headache which seems to be getting worse by the seconds.

panadol! where art thou?!

escapism of the cowardly heart(s)

Wednesday, February 08, 2006

You know of that sense of foreboding that creeps up out of nowhere.
the day of reckoning is nearing.


A levels.Results.

Scream your lungs out.
Cry till your tear glands pop out and beg you to stop.
Run as fast and as far as your body takes you.

But...
you can never hide.

FAT-ish?

Wednesday, February 01, 2006

I am so bloody sick and tired of being under the scrutiny of people. People who are my friends. Friends aren't supposed to judge you. They are supposed to... well, be your friend and take you along with them no matter what shit-hole you got yourself into.

Okay, so what if I am a little fat here and there! I'm not your friend for you to judge me and pass callous comments about my body. You think you are so mordantly witty Me being fat, thin, skinny, plump or whatever-not has nothing to do with you. You guys pass all these pernicious comments to me just because I look this way. You look at your fucking self first!

So I didn't know that being a friend to someone came with desideratum - slim, pretty, slim, slim and slim. So what the fuck is wrong with you guys and girls man! I have to be slim for you! or for myself?! What if I like the way I am?... Though I know that I am definitely not fat.

You make a joke about me and your only defense is how fat this or that part of my body and keep taunting me. You are lucky I guess, being my friend, I wouldn't have displayed my bitchfits you soon might see in the time to come. try me. I'll charge with all the shrewdness in me.

I hate boyfriends who constantly complain about their girlfriends being fat. It is because they are ruled by their dicks. When my girlfriends complain to me about that I get pissed! real bad! What's his fucking problem that she has huge thighs or big arms or she's too skinny. Then if image was so important to you guys then why the hell go on with the girls whom you think are fat. Leave 'em alone. Go on with some model-like girl. (yea.. like you can even get them). You think you are so perfect. One good thing about most girls is that they do not see the imperfection in their man. But rather it is the men who do so. The thing is people go into relationships with so much of expectations that they find themselves dissapointed at every turn.
So my advice: Don't expect much, and you'll get more in return.

So one more time you complain to me about your girlfriends being fat, or as a matter of fact that I am, you are so in for it. It's going to be detrimental this time round.
You men seek perfection all the time. Can't you get it into the thick skull of yours that physical perfection doesn't last forever in this contorted society. And if you ever took bio.. or as a matter of fact if you have any common sense you would realise that once we hit 30.. you can't go back to being young.. unless you opt for plastic surgery.. which then.. is only a momentary pleasure to the eyes(and dicks). Which in turn, of course, you men still desire.
Yea.. you guys can argue with me saying that not all men are like that and that there are some who aren't so judgemental.
yea.. and I'm waiting for that person who can prove me wrong. Someone who can banish my stereotypical views.

Anyone and everyone is free to contend my views.
Till then... cheers! And sod off!
