Monday and Wednesday: Hell Day
five kids.. yes that's my word of the day.. starting next week, i will be handling 5 kids.. for this week, i have four.. but i'm thinking of giving up Joshua.. our first session was okay but i never thought for a minute that he has too much bahavior.. some of the teachers already warn me about him.. he just came back, he stopped his therapy one year ago.. he kicks, he pulls hair, he throw things, he shouts and worst? he curses.. i'm now suffering from muscle pain because of him.. during our session yesterday, he slowly showed his behavior.. i was preparing for our next material when hu suddenly pulled my hair but i was too fast that i got my hair.. playbreak was over so i told him to pack away.. what did he do? he threw the toy so i told him to pick it up.. when he handed it to me, i threw it again and commanded him to pick it up again.. okay, that was over correction.. when it was time to write, he threw the pencil and the paper so again told him to pick it up.. i was nervous when he pointed the pencil on me.. good thing i got his hand.. we were about to go home when he unexpectedly pulled teacher esther's (the teacher that he hates) hair with his two hands! so teacher esther brought him back to the room and there he made a very nice performance.. people downstairs came up to see who was crying and shouting and cursing me and teacher esther.. i was holding his feet and teacher esther was holding his hands while he shouts and tells us that he wanted to go home.. it took us 15 minutes (i think) to calm him down.. he is such a scene stealer! and his not the only reason why my Monday and Wednesday will be hell days.. Alex, one of my new kids, is also a scene stealer.. teacher jo thinks she has adhd and i think she has autism because she rocks her body whenever there's a chance.. her session is two hours, after the first hour, she started throwing tantrums and shouting and telling me that her tummy is aching.. oh and her mom was watching which initiated her on crying more so i can't make a move! add to that is that she's fat! she's five years old, as tall as an eaight year and as fat as dudley dursley! and i'm her teacher! i don't think i can handle her and Joshua for the same day.. my body will give up on them.. if after 6 sessions and they are still like that then i will give up Joshua.. wreckers, i don't need discouragement.. i need encouragement..=)

Visayan Co-Workers
i really find it funny whenever i hear a Visayan talks in English because they have a tongue as hard as a stone.. we had a maid before who is a Visayan and i really laugh at myself when i hear her talk.. her pronounciation for "pwede" is "puydi," for "sibuyas" is "seboyas," and for my name??? "doren." hahaha!! when we became trainees of Intervention Partners, there we met Kuya Jerson and Teacher Alvin who never fails to make us laught because of their way of talking.. Here are some words that we laugh about when they talk..
Teacher Alvin:
seedling-sedling
four thirty-fur therty
Cambri-Cambre
lotion-loshon
Kuya Jerson:
color-color(long pronounciation of the "o" sound)
Lyn-Len
bukas-bokas
kulang-kolang
there are more, but i just can't remember it.. i'll re-post this when i remember the other words..

High School Memories
it's the seventh month of the year already.. time is really fast.. 6mos. ago we, were celebrating new year.. 5 mos. ago me and jp celebrated our 3rd valentine together.. 4 mos. ago i graduated from college.. 3 mos. ago i was wandering along the busy streets of Makati and looking for a job.. 2mos. ago i was a trainee and now i'm an employee.. oh and next month i will be a year older.. hay.. i just can't believe that i'm already a grown up..
a few years back in high school, i have this crush of mine who eventually became my suitor.. i was in my first year and he was in his senior year.. i was really into him that i didn't realized that he's not that good looking.. haha! good thing is that he didn't wait for my answer and courted another girl.. now, whenever i see him on my friend's list and look on his face, i laugh.. i laugh hard for liking someone like him..
and oh there's another guy that i thought i loved.. i met him when i was in second year.. our so called fling lasted for 1 month.. hehe.. so i thought then that my heart was broken because of him.. during our school's foundation some of my friends (they are not my friend anymore) told me that they brought alcohol for the occassion.. and me being heartbroken agreed to drink with them.. i know you won't believe what i'm writing and here.. yes, i drank alcohol inside our school and so the worst came along the way.. teachers found out about it but luckily we are girls so they didn't suspend or gave any disciplinary actions on us.. and that's the reason why i occassionally drink alcohol.. i had a trauma and it's my fault..
so ralph came along when i was about to enter my 3rd year.. yes, we had a relationship but we broke up 2mos before our supposed anniversary.. he didn't actually cheated because he broke up with me before courting the other girl.. funny thing is that we broke up on march 22 and they became a couple on the 27th i think.. he asked for another chance when i was in my senior year and i gave in.. he was there on my high school graduation.. and he was there when i entered college.. but in the long run, we broke up again for the same reason..
what i didn't realize is that JP was in the picture.. we became classmates when we were 2nd year.. i never really gave notice of him because he was into sports (sipa, volleyball, basketball).. he was such an "isip bata" back then.. but we became close on our third year because his cousin became one of my super friends.. ralph even got jealous of him whenever i tell him something about JP.. he was my first dance on our junior and senior prom.. he even kissed me on our graduation.. he liked somenone and i have a boyfriend.. but our classmates was already teasing us and telling us that we should confess each other's feelings.. it never came to my mind that we'll end up being together..
when i remember all the things that has happened to me during my high school days, i just laugh and thank God for if it didn't happen to me, i think i will not end up with JP..
