sadness

This is a very sad day. The saddest I have since I been here in US. I cried, cried and cried.

I guess I am not compatible to the job. I can never take care of kids well, espcially American kids. I guess I have made a huge mistake for coming here. I think so... Is there a turning back? I don't know. Should I rematch?? I don't know, nothing I have done seem to be right. I hate that kind of feeling. I hate that...

There is no one I can rely on right now, only myself. I have been trying my best, doing A LOT of things which were impossible to me. But then again, maybe it's time to rethink my deicision. Ya, I know the previous au pair is good and she can do almost anything. Too bad, I am not her and I can NEVER be her. You guys shouldn't ignore my effort.

You can never be in my shoes even though you said you understand... The rejection, the frustration, the depression...

Gosh..Maybe it's time for a change.

do whatever you're happy with.
don't force yourself.
life's never been easy.
you're so far apart from family and friends.
everything needs to be settled by yourself.
be tough.
no salah of turning back.
but, be sure there's no any regret after turning back.

Human tends to compare everyone, everything. They will only see how good is the previous, but they wont see how good is the present. Once they lost the present one, they will tell the latter how good is the previous (the present who just gone).

Life is never be fair though. They dont see ur effort & ur strength. In other working environments are similiar. So brace up and accept the challege. There are not only u who are fighting for acknowledgement.

I am always on ur side. Remember, brace urself & take up the tough challenge. U will be even more mature after this..

Stay cool, just be what you are and not push yourself too hard or over the limit. The more pressure you put yourself into, the lousier performance you give.

Good luck.

myles: sorry girl for leaving my msg only now since i am away to genting these few days..dun get frustrated or stressed up..it's completely normal n its not that u can't handle it but perhaps mayb u never dealt much with children 24/7 so it will take some times...jus give yourself some time to learn n soon u will b able to find a way to handle them..not only the kids but everything...jus like studying, we got lots of course to take, to learn, to manage and perform.. jus do it one by one and dun stress yrself up...slowly it will come handy n familiar..take care my fren, anything let us know k...KAMBADEH!!!!

plus, mayb its d diff between culture.. their expectation might b diff..so try to be at ease more and i hope it helps...
