Dear Diary,

    Another morning was it to awake. I got dressed casually for the first day of Table Tennis classes if it happens. I was lucky to make it to school early. People were around my desk. Finally, they all moved away. I gave “Mel” her birthday gift in a plastic bag. It was a crossword puzzle book. Only when I finished my Curepe pie, I signed the inside of the front cover.

    Jess and I had a class with 2L. The children went to change for their presentations. They had to research the history of a parang person to present, a single one of their songs and the others in the group would dress as backup singers. I liked the song done by Ameer's group, which would be nice to be a steelpan arrangement (“Papa Chucks”). The second group did “Education”. Some of the groups did not have their history so the mark will have to remain until they upload it to the Google Classroom.

    While 3M was coming down, I went to buy the pies for after lunch. I asked Mr Richard to keep the pepper out until when I go to collect them. Not many of the students had their work for presentation or tracks selected, which also was the reason no one chose a genre. Recess came and I spent the time with the Form 4s. Jess went to get her duster while I corrected the scales, triads and beaming in their Grade 3 past paper done in class previously.

    There was an early review of time signatures and the note tree. They spoke about the history topics and distributed it from now to the first term of their Form 5 experiences. Water soaked the corridors. Mrs Solomon was working with two girls and said she might be ready by 12:45. I didn’t bother going back again. Instead, I went to eat the two pies I paid for earlier. I remained by my desk to complete Exodus Eleven. I began chapter Twelve right after.

    At the end of school, “Mel” was surprised at my first day of Table Tennis. Spoke with the teacher about the fee and also the possibility of training for tournaments. My first attempt was “Mr Dass”. Just before “Miss Gumbs” was showing me how to hold the paddles. I also got to play “Jenny” Atwell a few times and some games with Vade.

    I also had a few with Jahiem and he was trying to show me how to serve and how to swing the paddle (out front; NOT sidewards). I was swinging the paddle too high. The first try was very difficult for me. I left school a few minutes after 4 as discussed with the coach. He mentioned that his surname was Ali as well. Have not been feeling to do any music writing these few days.

    Tonight I took some time trying to find the documents for Isa and remaking some to single sheets instead of supplicates on one page. Just like the children’s package having a letter, I decided to go and make one for the adults as a welcome letter one time.

    This creation took me three hours to compose the vocabulary for the dull document, which was half a letter-sized page on both sides. A separate and yet independent border was also selected for it. I will have to see if Clarence can come up with the two paragraphs for the introduction and welcoming. The lower part and all of the second side were done by me for tips on the registration.

    Later that night, after 10:45, my time for gaming was taken to try and tally the receipts for reimbursement. After 5 attempts the final number kept on varying. I will have to give it another try tomorrow evening.
