Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer* - Jewel

"So have you started your Christmas shopping?" me mate asked me over teh tarik yesterday.

What X'mas shopping? We need money for things like that, rite?

But i did go and look for some goodies for me students the other day, seeing that yesterday was the last of term and we're on X'mas break now - Woo hoo!!!

I wasn't sure wat i was gonna get - something cheap(!). Prolly some chocs. But the moment i walked into Cold Storage and saw it, i knew i had to get it.

I got this:-



It's so cool!!! And it was just nice for me 15 students in me Family Law class (yeah, the Year 1s had to settle for normal candy canes - look at it this way, they'll get to spend another X'mas with me next year).

So this candy cane pack thingy came wif 16 canes, 16 fluffy red noses and 32 "eyes" wif some bendy wriggly green thingies as antlers!



So in between preparing for their last lecture, i was busy glueing on the eyes and noses!



So it was X'mas gifts distribution yesterday. More than once, someone commented that i was like Santa, dressed in red (and green tie), going round distributing candy canes! Hey, i felt some X'mas in the air! Finally! :-)

So, that's it. The end of me first semester. What a brilliant time! Truly am so thankful to God. While i'm so so glad to finally get some sleep (proper sleep - not 2 hour cat naps here and there), i must say that i'm beginning to miss me students!

At least i'll be playing futsal wif some of them later! :-)

*I love her version! It's a capella!!! On a side note, some students were trying to guess wat was my "Christian" name and when i told them that it has something to do with X'mas, one suggested "Rudolph"!!!! She then went on to "Frosty". What the...??

Ooops. I just found out that Tracy might have already melted hers in Starbucks chocolate. Apparently the ants started to attack hers so she decided she will just eat the thing.. hehehehe

I never had a lecturer or teacher who gave me anything for any event. Keep it up. Your students will remember you dearly for it.
