Super bored....quite reluctantly to go out. No idea where to go too. Tendency to spend $ when shopping. Do nothing but sleep, eat, watch dvd, babysit and play with porky nephew.

*Post exam @ Seletar Air Base*


Brought the Sec 2s to Seletar Air Base for their PEA. What an amazing activity! Planned by Ms James and Mrs You. Based on the book "To Kill A Mockingbird", the activity made use of the layout of the entire residential area at the base, to allow students to go around the stations using maps and clues.

I teamed up with Victoria, a fellow 'HUMANS'. (hehheh...history teacher). Had a great time chatting and getting to know more about each other. Tiring and hot. A bit sun-burnt. Returned to school with a red nose.

Had a little incident at our station. Apparently a student pointed to our state flag hanging on the fence of one of the houses and used vulgarities. The owner was furious and confronted the students. He claimed the student denied. Marched up to Vicky and I, half-naked (bare top). He was in his boxers! I mean...what on earth was he thinking about?! He claimed he's offended by what the student had done, but he didn't even seem think how we'd feel with him charging at us in his boxers! Upon our return to school, Victoria and I spoke to Mr Yeo, informed him that he might be expecting a call from a resident anytime.

The 1st night of the ArtsFest has ended. Super tired. Well, I admit, it's a bit fun. Beside reading from scripts, gotta improvise on the spot. Like a live talk show. Haha! Okie okie...too tired to continue. It's been a super long day!

*Post exam week*


Accompanied the Sec 1 students to the European Heritage Centre along Ceylon road. I'm glad I was given this opportunity to go (take over a colleague due to a clash in events). So many fascinating facts and stories. Learned so much about the Eurasian community in Singapoore.

Made a trip to Republic Poly with Charmain and VP Mr Tan. Had to finalise the order of the events. Charmaine and I left as soon as we had all the information we needed to prepare the scripts.

Ciao!

*Super tiring...*


It's the last week of term 2. It's post-exam week. All kinds of fun activities have been planned for the kids. Helped out with the Maths trail on today. Quite fun and interesting! But I don't think the kids really appreciate it. =\ Also had a good chat with Janet. She's such a nice person! Although she sits beside me, we're separated by a huge pillar. Never really have the chance to chat with her. I'm glad we did today! =D

Anyway, Charmaine told me that she has an emcee thingy to prepare for the ArtsFest on Thursday and Friday. I've kindly offered to help her. (Otherwise she'll be doing this all by herself =\)

*Long time no see...or hear?*


Haha...I know I know...it's been donkey years since I post on my blog. I don't really like to blog about school. There's nothing much to say. Lol!

The past few months have been very exciting, fun and busy for me. And guess where I'm writing this blog? School! Huh! I have super light time table on Fridays. Only 1 hour English with 4A1. But since they took the exam las Friday, there's no need to go in for lesson. So it's up for grab for other subject teachers. Very weekend mood on Fridays (who doesn't eh?) Especially this couple of weeks. We get to dress down now. So it feels different. Sigh. Should have implemented the dress down option long ago.

As I've said, I'm super free today. No lesson at all. Right now I'm just waiting for school to end and I'm probably gonna head somewhere to window shop and chill. But I'm kinda lazy to go town.

Can't wait to get home to my beloved kitties...

*Great movies this holiday! Must watch!!*


Alvin and The Chipmunks is super hilarious! It's definitely a great family movie! Great to watch together over the holiday season! Love it!

National Treasure Book of Secrets is also another must-see movie! Love the historical and archaeological details of the story...although I don't think it's entirely factual. Love it!

*So sleepy...but love is all around*


So sleepy right now...had a busy and tiring weekend...
Spent the entire weekend visiting my eldest sis and newborn Alex at KK hospital. So fun!
I guess it's a a vicious cycle....reached home at 2am on Saturday morning, slept at around 3am. I was kept awake for an hour because my 2 beloved cats were running in and out of my room, wanting to play with me. They hadn't seen me for the whole day. Love is all around.

Watched Die Hard 4.0 last night at J8. Won a pair of complimentary tickets from LIME Magazine. It was an awesome movie! Love it! Love Bruce Willis! The actions were realistic and fantastic. Wouldn't hurt to watch over and over again. [grin]

*I've had a great time yesterday! Yea!*


Had a Geography Assessment Workshop yesterday afternoon. We were hosting this workshop. Was pretty excited about it because I kinda hope my ex-colleagues from Deyi would be participating this workshop. And my instincts were right! I was on my way to I-Room around 2.30pm after ending my relief class. Saw my mentor, Mr Freddy Goh walking towards the canteen. I picked up my speed and gathered my stuff for the workshop, before walking as fast as I could to the canteen to greet them. Only managed to say 'hi' as he was on the phone. The other teachers from Deyi, Lily, Julian and Maggie were busy too and I was too shy to interrupt.

I quickly SMSed Gwyneth who wanted to meet Mr Goh too. She was his student in Deyi. I'm glad that Gwyneth managed to catch with Mr Goh during our tea break. She actually waited outside. I guess he was on his way to the gents as he exited the room in a hurry. And Julian spotted me sitting with my Bowen colleagues. So I waved at him and Lily noticed me too. Oh dear...I was really very shy so I kinda kept myself busy.

And today, Gwyneth told me that Mr Goh asked about me, asked how am I doing right now. That's really nice of him. He told Gwyneth that I am very passionate. Haha...that's really flattering...

Workshop end close to 5.30pm, packed up and left close to 6pm. Exhausted but really had a great time at the workshop. I find it helpful, interesting and really eye-opening. My fellow colleagues are a group of fun-loving people. Easy going and humorous.

Couldn't really sleep at night because I was simply too excited. Haha...

*Independence Day*


Today's 4th of July, American Independence Day. Every year on this day, I just can't help thinking of the speech given by my favourite actor, Bill Pullman, in the movie Independence Day. I've watched this movie millions and millions of times. One of my all-time favourite movies. I've watched it so many times until I can even remember his speech! Hehheh... =P

President Thomas Whitmore (Bill Pullman): "Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in this history of mankind.
Mankind -- that word should have new meaning for all of us today.
We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore.
We will be united in our common interests.

Perhaps its fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution -- but from annihilation.
We're fighting for our right to live, to exist.
And should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice:
We will not go quietly into the night!
We will not vanish without a fight!
We're going to live on!
We're going to survive!"
Today, we celebrate our Independence Day!"

*Busy busy busy*


Hehheh...haven't been posting for the past 1 and half weeks. Hmm...well nothing much happened since my last post. Received a notification that I had been posted to BWSS to teach Geography and English. I have been pretty busy since school reopened on Monday. Busy preparing lesson plans, notes and attending meetings. Had driving after school on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. Extremely long day for me on Thursday because I had a Humanities Department meeting cum makan at 3.30pm. I stayed till around 4.15pm because my driving was at 4.40pm. When I left, the meeting haven't even started. =S Yesterday had a short (90 minutes) IT briefing cum training for the upcoming E-learning days. I was given an account on the LEAD portal website where I can track the progress of my classes and the submission of the assignments over the E-learning days. Kinda cool!

Had a vigorous badminton session this morning. It was a great workout and relaxation for me especially it's been a busy week for me! Felt fantastic! Eh...but I must admit I'm gonna feel my body aching . Thankfully it's youth day holiday on Monday! Yea! And next week is gonna be really really hectic, tiring and busy for me. Having driving everyday after school. Tuesday and Wednesday are at 3.20pm and Thursday and Friday are at 5.55pm.

Okie...gonna head back to work. Preparing notes....

*Awesome driving!!*


Yea! Today's driving is so fantastic!! I was assigned to car 119 and the instructor was so so so friendly. He's very encouraing and has a great sense of humour! Taught me to do sharp left turns and at the same time practiced what I have learned the previous lessons. After an hour in the circuit, he decided that it was time for me to go onto the road as he felt that the stations in the circuit are too easy for me. Haha! I drove out of the school myself! I thought he would switch over to the driver's seat to drive the car out and change over again. But he didn't! He allowed me to drive out myself. I drove on Yio Chu Kang road, AMK Ave 4, 2, 6, 3 and 5. Damn shiok! Can't wait for my lessons next week!

*Miss Lost*


=( I'm lost...can someone lead the way? Do I have to take this road? I can't help but start having doubts about myself and everything. I hate uncertainties and ahead of me lies nothing but uncertainties. A tonn of them. Are uncertainties good or bad? Should I just walk through them or should I take a detour? I'm feeling so so so so blue.
