Gah.. exhausted again..
I am just so not designed to handle little kids that are only up to my waist in height. And hell if I know how old they are, someone said 3 but I dunno.. that seems rather doubtful but then again, I can't even tell if a person is within the same age group of me anymore.
An ugly duckling. You'd like to think it's relevant to my post but it isn't. Really.
By now I'm guessing you're pretty lost as to my point, fine I'll start again.
Somehow I got wrangled by my own flesh and blood (mum) into volunteering at the Tzu Chi Bhuddist place to be a teacher aid for some Chinese little kids which speak a variety of differing Chinese dialects. How I could be helpful was rather useless since most spoke Mandarin and English, whereas I spoke Cantonese and English but one of the mysterious set of class rules is "No speaking English in class."
There were 12 kids there and during the story time I helped to coax some of the kids to the floor. I can't remember any of their names for the love of my life but I think one had a name that translated into Little-Sweat. He was no problem, in fact the most artistic one I could see as he could colour in the lines while still using crayons, that takes real talent.
Some other random in Red, wouldn't let go of my hand until I sat down with him and then he just leaned on me quite leisurely and tried to mould me into a comfortable shape as you would a bean-bag.
The girl in Pink wouldn't sit still at all for the entire 2hrs, never listened to the teacher and constantly told me she liked pink then complained that some of the colours were boy colours then coloured in the picture of the boy, pink.
Personally I had a certain fondness for the kid with a gelled up punk hair-do, which was rather dashing and wild of him. He's gonna be a real player one day : /
Little kids are tiring, does someone want to go with me next time as back-up? |
