Let's do a little preview to how Sunday Class is like:

This makes me happy! :)

My Favourite Boy! :D
I'm Aaron and i love yumyum time, :))

I'm always full of expressions, but i still love food the most!

Jiejie loves to take pictures of me, so i should smile for her!

Spiderboy!
I'm Nathan the Spiderboy!
"Spiderboy's not with me because food's more important!"

He's the BigBoy now, I joined Agapeland when he was a baby, now he's 5!
I'm Ethan.

I'm the shy girl who hardly smiles,
I'm Vivienne!

The Little Monster's here!
I'm Xavier. I love Garfield. :)
I graduated from your class though.

Am i to smile?
I'm Joshua, I'm a little shy though.

Hello, It's me again.
Full of smiles!

Agapeland's always full of surprises,
Tashka has been caught by one!
She was once an Agapeland-er, a helper and now teaching herself. :)

Aunty Lily! She's Tashka's leader.
Always ready to help!
Aunty Serene's on my right. :)

Best Of Friends!
They make Agapeland happier! :))

So here you have it,
A toddlers' class at Agapeland.
Not a full class though, cannot take pictures of all 16 of them,
only the ones who are closer to me would say hello to you, :)

More photos of others, next time!

Ethan and Xavier's graduated.
Big boys now. :)
Kind of miss Ethan's presence in class though.
He always has many many questions to ask!

Aaron would always be my favourite,
the one that's very sticky to me too.
Whoopsy, Isabel's very jealous of that!

Sundays always becomes a happy day
because of these little buddles of joy!

#15 Best?

Today marked one of the best days in 2009, even though it was a Monday. I went to school feeling very tired and weary thinking about the coming week and wondering why the tiredness has been draining me, am i suffering from insomnia? Questions like such started to flow through my mind. I felt like a dead zombie just walking through life's routines to please myself and the people around me.

I shoved all thoughts aside, and as school started, i started to focus on doing what's right - paying attention in class and trying to follow through lessons. So as to start the week, 'right'. I must say i managed to at least for the first half of the day. Just as recess fell on me, the sudden tiredness also managed to get through me. I felt that my eyes were just shutting through conversations. Comments saying i'm beginning to develop purple, puffy eye bags were brought to my attention. Nothing much i could do about it anyways, just carried on with classes after. Accounts was draining! But, i managed to catch what was happening through the lesson. Maths followed after, dazed out couldn't make the cut.

Lunch break. SRP. Got pissed off from the start because we got ticked off for not being on time when Common! Half the class just skipped the whole lesson, at least we BOTHERED to come but still we supposedly are going to be sent to the DMs. It didn't matter to me anymore, i didn't care. I guess i've become too numb and imune to the threathens coming my way that i can't be bothered with it anymore. After the extra long Tamil, i went over looking for Mdm Choo discussing about the Class Tee.

And this is where i would say best. I was invited over to her place. How often does a teacher allow any student to come to her place? I accepted her invite and i was off to say hello to her adorable cutie-pies! At first, i felt a little out of place, because she was angry over an issue with her daughter which brought the 2 older ones in. So i only had Eleanor to play with. Soon after when everything cooled down, i got my hands of Fabian! These two, my favourite. I could even realise that Eleanor had become very comfortable with me. I was really brightened up. Chermaine and I began to talk and Denise followed along, they're really flexible children! I really enjoyed the time spent with them. Every single one of them. Eleanor and Fabian were making me smile, so so much. It was such a brightener and joy to see them so carefree and joyful. Had nice conversations with Cherm & Denise at the same time, and reliving the old times where I would watch such cartoons on TV! It was really a great momment, happy and joyful.

I truly did enjoy myself, didn't manage to grab photos though, too busy playing and being entertained by Eleanor and Fabian. All the children are wonderful ones. They brightened me up, so much. Thanks for this rare opportunity. I'm smiling, because i feel so blessed playing and talking to Chare (sp?) (13), Denise(9), Eleanor(3) & Fabian(7months). Children bring my such happiness and joy. I'm blessed. So blessed.

I shall end off here. If i have more time, i'll share about my Agapeland experience with the children there, just like this post where i shared about my experience with an amazing group of children.
