currently : just reached home not long ago. its really a HOT day today, after the consecutive rainfalls for the past few days.

went for 2 interviews in the morning - one @ 9am (Choa Chu Kang); and the other @ 12pm (Novena)

for the 9am interview, being a 路痴 with completely no sense of direction cum navigation, I lost my way, again, for the # xxx time =/ it seems like whenever I am out, I have the tendency to get lost on my way, especially when I'm alone and going to an unfamiliar or new place =S

combed.wandered.walked around the area for 2o mins, under the WARM weather, and finally found the block, many thanks to the friendly residents who helped and directed me along the way (;

after filling up the application form and a brief Q&A session, I left for Novena.

on the way, the Choa Chu Kang centre called and told me that I've left my IC at the centre =/ yes yes, please call me Miss Gong-Gong or Miss Scatterbrain =/ I had actually forgotten all about my IC after they asked to photocopy it =S

so... I went ahead with my 2nd interview, and rushed back to Choa Chu Kang thereafter to retrieve my IC, for the centre is only open half-day today till 2pm =/

hmm... the 2nd interview, I must say that I'm very interested and keen about the school ^_- it is very different from the normal preschools and kindergartens, in terms of its curriculum; teaching methodologies; working days and hours; class allocation etc. a totally new concept and an eye-opener for me as the director introduced the school, whilst I tried my best to absorb in the information (: i guess, this school will provide a new dimension of experience, exposure, opportunity as well as a challenge for me if I'm really offered a teaching position (;

so far so good. several centres have had already contacted me and offered me a teaching position, very keen & interested in signing me on. but, I guess I want to go for more interviews - to gain more insights as well as open my door to more choices and opportunities. who knows, there might be a surprise in for me at the very next second (; i want to open my heart to all the possibilities (:

* still, in search of the right one (: *

When you come to the edge of all the light you have,
and are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown,
*faith* is knowing one of two things will happen:
There will be something solid to stand on; or you will be taught how to fly =) ]]*
