Usapang Bata # 68-69

Isang super busy na araw sa school, ang mga bagets feeling foundation day lang. Super hyper sa paglalaro. At syempre, may isang namumukod tanging leader sa group–none other than the second youngest child in the class, Janel. Feeling ni Janel, hindi lang Foundation Day, Teacher’s Day pa na tipong kailangan ng student mentors. Lahat ng ways ng teachers, gayang-gaya nya:

Teacher A. : Okay kids, pack away na!

Janel: Everyone, pack away na!

Teacher L.: Janel, kasama ka sa magppack-away ha hindi lang classmates mo ha.

 

2nd Scene

While playing ball catching, natamaan ni Yohann ang ball na hawak ni Janel:

Janel: Ay Yohann, that’s bad ha. Come here.

(At dinala ni Janel si Yohann sa “face the wall” corner)

Teacher A: Janel, no ha. Si teacher lang ang magpapa-face the wall ha. Come here Yohann.

Janel: (habang hawak-hawak si Yohann papunta kay teacher) Oh di ba Yohann si teacher lang apapa-face the wall, akikinig ka lang sa kin ha.

 

Asus! Pambihira talaga ang leadership ni Janel!

Announcer sa radyo: Wala pong pasok ang elementary at highschool sa metro manila ngayong araw na ‘to.

Me: Dylan, is my nail polish pretty?
Dylan: Yes
Me: Do you like it?
Dylan: No!

Dylan the sweetest boy:-)

Usapang Bata # 48

Dylan brought his Thomas Train coloring book in school. Since all kids love anything new, they were like bees buzzing around Dylan the flower. After a while, they already stopped since the teachers asked them to. But one kid was so persistent and just pretended to leave Dylan behind, but actually, he was just a few baby steps away from Dylan:

Me: Dylan, you want to color your Thomas?
Dylan: Oh yes sure Teacher Apple
Seth: (his most awaited time) Okay! I’ll help him!

Ay sandali? Tinawag kita Seth? 🙂

Seth-y boy:-)

Me: Ha?
Jazz to Nigel: Wag ka na kasi mag-cry para hindi na mag-sick si Teacher Apple
