So the first day of 'school' wasn't so bad after all. I slept abt 2 in the morning the night before, preparing for the lesson & making sure that all the materials & references are in order. It felt like my 'first' day of school, I was anxious the whole night, keep waking up every hour as if its my first-time ever to teach. I think the anxiety was heightened by the fact that I get to drive to school after dropping Amirul off - my maiden journey as I call it after the neighbourhood schools & market trips. And after all the butterflies in the stomach, it turned out more than ok. Thank god for the preparations I made the night before as it proved more than helpful with 40 students & me with no asst trainer by my side.

Everything was over in 2 hours & before I knew it, I was already driving back, getting ready to make another trip to fetch Amira from school. By 2 in the afternoon, the kids are back home, with lunch in the tummy, even time to spare with rounds of badminton game with Dandi's mum & the kids.

So now I'm looking forward to the days ahead, just imparting my knowledge to eager 13 yr-olds in the morning then back home by noon to spend time with my chummies, bliss I would say...and oh, I've got to get myself a hair-trim,its been waaaaay too long...
