Just as I was feeling much better on my 2nd day of MC yesterday, I over-exerted myself today and fell ill again.
Took over the role of the houseparents for today and, together with a volunteer, we brought 11 kids out. To put it nicely, they are bunch of healthy active kids. To put it not-so-nicely, they are a bunch of mischievous & hair-pulling kids. My hair to be exact. Rather, there were moments that I can feel myself wanting to literally pull my hair out.
I learned a few things about kids today:
1) They will ALWAYS know when they are wrong. They will grudgingly yet willingly accept the punishment.
2) They may "hate" us when we discipline them but when that is over, they start to crawl up to your laps asking your help to read to them.
3) They may act cool, look cool & be cool.. (Cool, in this sense, means attitude) but when something really happen, they will come united as one.
Kids... They either cause me to be bald or they will add more crow lines to my eyes.
Gonna hydrate myself and hit the bed.. Zzzzz...
