met some kids at the day care centre today. they were much more active than i expected.

i hope to be able to really spend quality time with them but dont u ever think of what will happen when u have to leave someday? do u ever get worried of being too emotionally attached? becos i've only met them for barely 2 hours today and i'm already worrying a lil. maybe not so much of worrying but thinking abt it. i dont even know if i'll see them tt often.

anway, i'm surprised and kinda touched when seeing how the adults there do some things so seriously. they were having this "mini-comp" to see which child (out of the 4 kids) could tell the best story or whose art work was the best. and i saw the two teachers/mentors discussing very seriously over the results (kind of serious to me...for an unofficial comp like tt). and after that they announced the results and awarded the kids with stickers/jewel box etc. seeing the kids jump with joy over their simple gifts make me understand the need to take even their lil mini-contest seriously.

and i'm impressed by the learning spirit of kenneth. he was determined to pronounce the name of this dinosaur. it was a long and complex word and even after i tried reading it out several times, he cldnt remember it. i thot its alright...that name is too diff to read (its so long, i cant even remember it) but he kept asking me over and and over again...tt's my good student :P

but other than reading time today, i found myself standing arnd rather uselessly. the adults are really good at playing with the kids... i should learn "scissors pepper spoon" too :P

tt's all for now.
