Tonight, he and I talked about several things for two hours. I’ve been a little bit more sensitive than I usually am, but talking to him tonight had made it better. It’s nice, sometimes, to just sit and talk and listen and do nothing else.
One week before started teaching at Cipaganti Elementary, my friends and I did an observation there. We sat at the back of the class and watched the teacher delivering the lesson. At one point, one of my friends was asked to pronounce some words in front of the class for the students to repeat. She accidentally pronounced ninth as [neenth] instead of [nahynth] and the students all followed her.
This is the kind of mistake that I’m afraid I would do when teaching them.
She said she would fix it when she got her chance to teach the class, though. Her turn is this coming Wednesday. Mine is next week. It’s getting closer and closer. I’m really nervous.
Last week, on Friday, I had my 21st birthday. And you know what is the most exciting part of having a birthday? No, not the aging, but the gifts! Oh yes, the gifts! (I’m 21, but still 5 on the inside…)
So, I’m skipping the regular Weekend is for… series to share with you what I got for my birthday. Here they are:
1. Stuffed elephant and elephant sling bag
The stuffed elephant is from my mum, and the bag is from my sister. When I woke up that morning, there was a package at the end of the bed, near my feet. I opened it and I found these two. I carried the bag all day for Eid, actually ;p
2. Tripod
This one is from my manfriend. He hid the gift under his table in his room, with the intention to surprise me. But he failed cause I already saw it. Haha! That same day, we went to the zoo and take some pictures together with the help of this tripod 🙂
3. Chelsea FC jersey (Oh hoho! They rhyme!)
I was on a date with my manfriend yesterday when I got a text from Fajar, telling me to come to his place because he got ‘a surprise’ for me (well, by that time it was no longer ‘a surprise’ of course). And this was it. It is from the dudes and dudettes in BlowUP!.
4. The Perks of being a Wallflower
It’s been some kind of a habit for me to get my own self a birthday gift. This year, I chose this novel because of reasons. One of them was Logan’s face on the cover, and another one was because people on the blogosphere seemed to be very, very excited about the upcoming movie adaptation of this novel since the book is (according to them) very, very good. But the main reason was Logan’s face, of course.
Thank you very much, everybody! I love you all.
XOXO
