A Story To Share..

I was browsing through some of my old stuff that I have kept since I was little. I found an old children's story in my tin box. I remembered I love the story so much that I wrote it down on pieces of paper and stapled it up so that I'll be able to read it again after I've returned the book to the library. The story is called "Love You Forever" by Robert Munsch. I was unable to find the book in any of the bookstores till I might have forgotten all about it as I start to get busy with school. Since I found the story again, I think my only option now is to purchase it online.

Let me share with you the story by listening to the video of the author himself reading the story:

There was a mother who had a new baby.
And she picked it up and rock it back and forth,
back and forth, back and forth and sang:

"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always.
As long as I'm living,
My baby you'll be."

Well, that little baby, it grew.
It grew and it grew and it grew and it grew,
until it was two years old.
And it ran all around the house,
push over bookcases, took things off the wall,
and picked up it's mother's watch and flushed it down the toilet.
Sometimes the mother would say,
"This kid is driving me CRAAAZZZYYY!"

But at night time, when that little kid was asleep,
the mother would opened up the door to his room,
crawled across the floor, looked up over the side of the bed.
And if that two year old kid was really asleep,
she would picked it up and rock it back and forth,
back and forth, back and forth and sing:

"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always.
As long as I'm living,
My baby you'll be."

Well that two year old,
it grew and it grew and it grew and it grew.
It grew until it was nine years old
and it never want to come in for dinner, and when it did come in,
sometimes it would say bad words at the dinner table.
Sometimes the mum would say,
"This kid is driving me CRAAAZZZYYY!"

But at night time when that nine year old is asleep,
the mother would opened up the door to his room,
crawled across the floor, looked up over the side of the bed.
And if that kid was really asleep,
she would picked it up and rock it back and forth,
back and forth, back and forth and sing:

"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always.
As long as I'm living,
My baby you'll be."

Well that nine year old,
it grew and it grew and it grew.
It grew until it was a teenager.
And it had strange friends,
and it wore strange clothes and it listened to strange music.
Sometimes the mother would say,
"This kid is driving me CRAAAZZZYYY!"

But at night time, while that teenager was asleep,
the mother would opened up the door to his room,
crawled across the floor, looked up over the side of the bed.
And if that great big kid is really asleep,
she would picked him up and rock him back and forth,
back and forth, back and forth and sing:

"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always.
As long as I'm living,
My baby you'll be."

Well that teenager,
it grew and it grew and it grew,
It grew until it was a grown up man.
It left home and moved all the way to the other side of town.

But sometimes on dark nights, the mother would drive across town.
When she came to her son's house and if the lights were all out,
she would climbed up the bedroom window,
opened it up, crawled across the floor,
looked up over the side of the bed.
But if that great big man was really asleep,
she would picked him up and rock him back and forth,
back and forth, back and forth and sing:

"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always.
As long as I'm living,
My baby you'll be."

Well that mother,
she got older and older and older.
One day she calle dup her son and said,
"You'd better some and see me cos' I'm very old and sick."
The son came to see his mother
and the mother tried to sing the song and she said:

"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always..."

She was too old and sick to sing the song.
The son walked over to the mummy,
he picked her up and rock her back and forth,
back and forth, back and forth and sang:

"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always.
As long as I'm living,
My Mummy you'll be."

And it was late that night when the son got home
and he stood for a long time at the top of the stairs.
Then he went into the bedroom where his very new baby daughter was sleeping.
He looked at that little girl and he picked her up and rock her
back and forth, back and forth, back and forth and sang:

"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always.
As long as I'm living,
My baby you'll be."

I do hope the story touches your heart as how it did to mine till now.

Marry You..

Hmm. Can you hear that? I've changed the song in my playlist. To those who are wondering and trying to figure out the title of the song on the screen, it's called "Marry You" by Glee Cast members. Now please, please, please tell me people you've watched "Glee". My jaw will seriously dropped open if you tell me that you've never seen it before! YOU ARE MISSING SUCH A GREAT SHOW, YOU KNOW! And for those who are in love with it, I just have one thing to say, we shall be a FAITHFUL GLEE FANS together, ok?! Lol!


In the meantime, this song has been playing in my mind ever since I've watched one of their episode from Season 2. This song was originally sang by Bruno Mars. Well, sorry to say but the Glee casts bring out the best in the song rather than the original singer himself. Opps!

Here's a short video from YouTube taken during the scene of them performing the song.

"Marry You" Lyrics:

It's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Well I know this little chapel on the boulevard we can go,
No one will know,
Come on girl.
Who cares if we're trashed got a pocket full of cash we can blow,
Shots of patron,
And it's on girl.

Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.

Cause it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

I'll go get a ring let the choir bells sing like oooh,
So whatcha wanna do?
Let's just run girl.

If we wake up and you wanna break up that's cool.
No, I won't blame you;
It was fun girl.

Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.

Cause it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Just say I do,
Tell me right now baby,
Tell me right now baby. x2

Cause it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Hope you did enjoy listening to the song.

Something for Christmas..

Christmas event for this year, my colleagues decided to do something different. Yes, we did exchanged gifts however, there was more to it. We played a game called "Manito Manita". It is actually a traditional Christmas game. "Manito" is a male whereas "Manita" is a female. The rule for the game is that each of us are to picked a piece of paper which consists of the names of the players. We are not supposed to reveal to anyone the person that we have gotten and that person is our Manito/Manita. Looking at where I'm working, all of us are actually Manitas. Lol!

Each day, there will be a theme for us to give our gift to our Manita however we have to do it secretly cos the Manita is not supposed to know who is their Angel (the person she receive the gift from). For example, the theme for Day 1: Something Hot. We are supposed to buy the gift that is based on the theme and the budget that we have set for the gift is between $0-$2. We played it for 2 weeks and by the end of it, the Angels will reveal themselves to their Manitas by presenting the actual Christmas gifts.

So, let me present to you the gifts that I have received from my Angel.

Day 1: Something Hot

Gift: Salonpas

Day 2: Something Useful

Gift: Tissue Facial Remover

Day 3: Something Recyclable

Gift: 2010 & 2011 Calendars

Day 4: Something Holey

Gift: Orange Bangle

Day 5: Something Hairy

Gift: Rubber Band

Day 6: Something Edible

Gift: Onion, Chilli Padi, Ginger & Garlic

Day 7: Something Funny

Gift: Shaver

Day 8: Something Tormenting

Gift: Edited Pic With Skull Head

So, the last day came whereby I'll get my actual Christmas gift from my Angel. Throughout the days, I've got no idea and clueless who my Angel was. And boy, was I so surprised that it was my mentor, Julie! I should present her with a BEST ACTRESS award next time round. Lol! So here's the gift I've received from her......

Helen's Bracelet!!

I love it!

Thank you, Julie!

Becoming Agents..

Yea, that's right. With much difficulty, I've decided to become and be part of the team of Agents. Not any agents, but a CSI Agent. Well, at least for one day. Hehe!


As if I could become one because seriously, at the sight of blood and whatever other things these CSIs have to face, I'll be the first to faint. Lol! Anyways, I did went to the CSI Exhibition @ Singapore Science Centre with my Darling Faisal. He was the one who wanted to go for it so as a SWEET fiancee, I went along to accompany him. Sweet right, sweet right??? Hehe!

And, of course, we became CSI Agents during the exhibition. Task: Finding evidences and clues for us to solve the crime scene which was given to us. Pretty exciting even though I don't really watch CSI that much. They also have videos and facts at each station on how those different evidences that they have found are useful in solving the crime cases. There are also showcases of the different tools used during autopsy, in DNA Lab etc.

So for those who are interested to become a CSI Agent for the day, the ticket will be $20. There are also other packages which you can purchase. For us, we took the CSI Exhibition+Science Centre= $21. Plus, if you're a Starhub subscriber or a Passion cardholder, you'll get a further 10% discount. Click here to view the official website.

BuuuuSSSSSSSyyyyyy!

Oops! Has it been a month since I've not updated my blog? Well, I really do apologise for that. November and the beginning of this month was such a hectic month. We had spring cleaning of the centre, MCYS audit, setting up our new class, taking the new 2011 children and curriculum discussion. Whoa! I need a break soon. Thank God I managed to take leave next week even if it is only for three days. At least it's better than having none at all. Anyways, I'll have to end it here for today. I'll update again next week.

*wink*

jLn-jLn @ JB

Last weekends has never been better! Though I was not feeling well, I still would not want to miss out the fun especially when Kak Shidah and her hubby, Abg Lan, came over to JB. And who else came along as well? Of course it's Baby! Lol! Picture-taking is also a MUST for us too. So, why don't I let the pictures do the talking then? *smiles*


Just look at the person way behind them. I don't know what is he trying to do. Lol!

Booooooooo, MAN U!! Sorry to tell you this people, I am a LIVERPOOL supporter! *smiles*


I am sooooooo in love with the sunglass that I had to try on 3 different colours. It was so difficult for me to choose that it took me quite a while for me to decide. Sorry Baby! And finally (I bet he must have said, "Phew!"), I have decided to buy the...............

Nadiah is FeeLing UPSET!!

Now, you must be really wondering why is Nadiah feeling upset? *Sigh* It is such a long story, but I'll try to cut it short ok. Where shall I start? Hmm. I'lll start from the morning while I was on the way to work.

6.45 am, in the bus (to work):
I was sleeping in the bus with my head resting against the glass window. A middle-age guy boarded the bus and sat beside me. While I was dozing off, I felt something leaning lightly against my left arm. When I peeked open my eyes, the guy who sat beside me, has already fallen asleep. And what is worse, he literally kept on leaning against me!! I have to keep on shoving him off for the WHOLE HOUR of my bus ride journey! Thank you so much for ruining my sleep and my mood early in the morning.

7.08 pm, in the bus (to home):
I woke up from my sleep in the bus and looked out from the glass window. And GREAT, by mere seconds, I have already missed my stop. I had to alight at the next stop but by then, the bus has already entered a new town. So, instead of me being able to reach home at 7.20 pm, I arrived at my doorstop at 8.00 pm.

Hmm. You think that is it? Noooooooooooooooo. Let us move on to the next scene.

8.00 pm, my house doorstep:
I can't see it and it's definitely not there. Urgh! My food is gone! My parents bought me a dinner because they wanted to go back to JB and they do not have the keys to my grandma's place. So they had no choice but to leave it at the gate, hanging it in between the door and the gate. Well, it turns out that I do have neighbours that are quite a thief huh. I'm not trying to be mean, but looking at how upset I am, I do hope whoever it is that stole my dinner will fall sick with a BAD diarrhoe after eating it! Hmph!

What a pitiful day for me.

*Sigh*

PsyChic or whaT??!!

Well, I just have to share this video with you. Please do have a view at it first.


My whole jaw just dropped open when Baby showed me this video. The first thing that got into my mind was, "Whoa, what is she?? A psychic??" Lol! But seriously if you think about it, how could she just solve the puzzle immediately with only ONE letter to help her? Even though the clue given for that puzzle was "PHRASE", man, there are too many phrase out there for us to even think and figure it out, you know! Now, let's have a vote. What does your feeling tells you on how she managed to solve the puzzle within a few seconds? Hmm..

P.S. Please do vote at the poll located at the right column.

*wink*

AnOther SleepLess Night Away fRom hOme..

Thank God the doctor gave me one more day of Medical Leave. I was unable to sleep peacefully last night; cough, flu and cold atmosphere from the early morning rain. Why do I have to fall sick at a time like this?! This week is gonna be the second last week that I'll be conducting my lesson with the children, you know! Oh, how I missed them already. I do hope they are behaving well without me in the class. If there are any complaints that I received tomorrow, "Teacher Nadiah is really UPSET!". It's just amazing at the age of 2 to 3 years old, they are able to use those sentence on their friends, not forgetting, with the actions as well. Lol!

In my previous post, I did mentioned that I have shifted house and am no longer staying in Pasir Ris. You will also come to realise that in my Facebook status, I will always mentioned about "going back to JB" or something like that. My family and I are staying in JB now. Err, only during the weekends for me because it's going be a really CRAZY journey for me to be going back and forth from JB to my workplace and from my workplace to JB! So during the weekdays, I'll stay over at my grandma's place.

Life has never been better especially during the weekends for us. It's nice to be going back to a place which is away from the busy lives that we always have to face here. Like a weekend getaway! Lol! Most of the time the atmosphere there is at cool temperature because the house is facing directly towards the high hills that can be found when you drive along the highway of Malaysia. Most of my family members have visited our place and they seemed to like the place as well. Looks like my parents have made the right choice then.




Well, I have to rest now. Hopefully I'll be feeling better by the end of the day.

*wink*

I'm Definitely Back!

Hello everyone! Firstly, I just want to apologize for my "MIA (missing-in-action)" in my previous blog. There were just TOO many things going on at that period of time which I had to settle. What's with me coping with the workload and also with the shifting of the house.

Since everything are settling down, I have also decided to create a new blog as well. As you can see, it's quite bright actually. It also reflects myself now since the "thunderous clouds" are gone, leaving behind a brighter path for me to head to. In'syaallah.

Year 2010 is coming to an end too. Which means I have to get myself prepared with things for the new 2011 class of mine. I won't be able to reveal the next class level that I will be taking so for now you can just keep on guessing.



*wink*
