7 Memories Of School Days With Mrs

Thanks to Mrs message, I thought it'll be fun to write about my school days with her, let's see what we have:

1. Mrs taught me how to play the guitar in school.

2. We used to run a CF together. Once a students whom we didn't know popped by and joined us. Those have been really great.

3. We were always rushing work.

4. We sat near a fellow classmate who was real messy. She had dried mushrooms in the drawers and under the desk........... EEeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww :P

5. Whenever I needed a break from all that serious brainstorming, I'd shift Mrs's pencil case and stuff around her desk. Just to disturb her.

6. Mrs kicked my butt once.

7. I used to paste a large paper on my table so that I can doodle on it. Mrs saw some of those and wanted me to do some doodle for her.


Those days has been hectic, but fun. I guess what really added to the joy has been the good friends around. We should have taken more photos back then, so that we can look at them now.

Well it's never too late. At least we're taking more pictures now, like our swiss rolls......... grin. Someday in the faraway future, I believe we'll appreciate these pictures

Gyming Again

I'm a little reluctant to hit the gym today. After two weeks break, I've sort of lost the gyming momentum........... Furthermore, the weather is so cold today, it just feels like the perfect day to sit in the couch for a few games on my 360.

But I know I have to gym today, no matter what, even if it means dragging myself there :P :( :0

Now, where's my running shoes and stuffs

Memories of College Life

Sorry Boon2, to steal this entry from you. Just that I got rather nostalgic after reading your entry, can't help but really feel like penning down some memories of my college life here:

- I remember checking out my dream college with Boon2. Lucky us, the then principle came and talked to us personally for a long time

- I was taught by a real local artist and had the best times of my college life in the art studio. I remember hiding in the art studio to do my tutorials while waiting for the next class. My friends always have a hard time trying to find me

- I got to know some of the best people in that studio. They have coloured my college life in the best possible ways.

- I was selected to represent my college in a pre-u event. The selection interview was intimidating, with the principle, vice principle and many HODs asking me lots of questions.

- We had many dogs in the college.

- I was the club treasurer.

- In a skit, I played a school girl buying ice-cream from an uncle. I got the most numbers of NGs because I simply couldn't stop giggling when it was my turn to speak.

- For some reasons, I love the locker room. I hid all my thick books in there

- I used to raise the flag during morning assemblies


Small fish, you wanna blog about this too? Think it'll be fun

Tagboard

One of my dear sis asked me how come I'm not having a tagboard. Hmmm.......... initially I didn't want my blog's right panel to have too many items. Then again, well, why not, if it adds convenience ^_^

So here we are, I've added a tagboard to my blog. Feel free to comment :)

Happy 21st Birthday, FCBC

We were in for a surprise when we reached church today. The urshers were distributing balloons and stuff because it's the church's 21st anniversary. During the service, the video footages they show brought back lots of beautiful memories. As I watched it, I suddenly realised, I have walked a pretty long distance with the church.................. I really thank the pastors for imparting such fine teachings and wisdoms.

A large part of the way I think and reason is crafted by the great wisdoms imparted by these wise people. I'm truely thankful, because they have really taught me the way to handle problems, situations........ and also how to handle people. Most of all, I have learned to love and care for others, to have a geninue concern about the well beings of others.

I can only say, I'm very blessed.........

Pasta I Made



Lala and me were so fasinated by the packagings we saw at a store. The product packagings make the food they contain seems better than they really are. We were busy drooling over the cookies and chocolates. Too bad I just recovered from sore throat and Lala is still having sore throat, we couldn't eat these tempting but heaty food.


Decided to have some fun making Pasta for dinner. Check out the results, not that bad huh.

More Than A Dream Come True


This is the moment of her life. My lovely mom, dressed in an angelic robe stood on stage as she awaits her turn to get baptised. The entire family was so excited, busy capturing this special moment on cameras.

It has been a really memorable as well as touching event. All my life, I have been praying for this moment. I prayed that someday mom will come to know God. That is why, witnessing this moment is very special to me. I mean, this is an answered prayer right before my eyes. I feel so moved when my mom got baptised.

I have learned, as long as we don't give up, as long as we persever, we will eventually be able to live our dreams. We will accomplish the things we really really want.

I Have Been Tagged :)

I have been tagged by Mrs!
Here goes the list of 7 random things about myself:


ONE:
I lived my early childhood in a farm. I had a personal cat and many dogs which I claimed were mine. I gave them individual names.


TWO:
I often jump into trains going the opp direction. There was once, I discovered I was in the wrong train only when I was like miles away.


THREE:
I love dolls, still played with dolls during my poly days, keep a few dolls currently and often toy with the idea of starting a doll collection.


FOUR:
I'm a fan of sashimi and medium raw steaks.


FIVE:
I love taking long walks, especially when it's away from the busy city. I love my path to be sandwiched by rows of tall trees. The best moments are when leaflets start falling from the trees. Occasionally, I see some butterflies fluttering across my path.

I still say, the best things in life are free.


SIX:
I am toiletphopic. I don't dare to wash toilets.


SEVEN:
I dance badly

Movie



Love this installation at the cinema
I'm in a movie mood lately, but there isn't too many shows I'm excited about........ hmph.

Out of the shows I've watched recently, the only one I've really enjoyed is The Simpsons Movie. Thought it's realy funny. I was laughing away throughout. But there really isn't much to watch now........... I feel like heading for the movies later, but what shall I watch?

Taboo Questions

In her latest blog entry, one of my dear sis talks about a topic so close to my heart that it inspires me to blog about it.

The topic for today is, the list of questions I wish no one would ask. I'm sure many would identify with how we're feeling. Here goes the list:

1. When you having bf/gf ah?
2. When you getting married?
3. When you having a kid?
4. When you having your second kid?
5. When you having your............. number whatever kid?
6. When's your son/daughter getting married?
7. When's your daughter/daughter-in-law giving you a grandchild?

Honestly, I can never comprehend, why would anyone ask such questions? Because I don't see the logic for doing so. Firstly, it is quite apparent that many of the answers are in fact, not fully within our control. And it makes people awkward trying to justify or explain such things. Personally, 1 am so against such questions because they are really very personal.

My friends know how private I am, so usually, they won't touch on such things. Hence, I often get these questions from people whom I just got to know or from some real distance relative whom I can barely recognise. Therefore, I really have issues when they ask me such things. I really feel like saying, "Thanks for your concern about something so personal in my life, even though I just got to know you 15 mins ago" Grin

I have been asked so many times that I no longer entertain them, hence, my usual responds will be really frank. And it goes like this:

Me: I really don't wish to discuss that.

But to my greatest disbelief, the people who started such topics wouldn't take my hint and went on and on about the why......... and why you should and urgh


Like I say, we really should be sensitive towards others and not talk about such personal things unless the person is seeking for a listening ear.

I mean, wouldn't a discussion about some recreational activities more enjoyable and relaxing for both parties?


For questions to break the ice, I really appreciate something like:

"So, what are some of your hobbies?" or "What's your favourite pop group?"

7000 words

Whoever said the female species has to speak 7000 words a day to fulfill her emotional needs might be wrong after all. For the last three days, I barely spoke. Wanna make sure I get a full recovery this time round.

Precious Tool

On mc today because I'm nursing a hurting throat. That's an important tool for my livihood, got to take real good care of it.

Isn't the twists and turns of life interesting? I've never imagine that some day in my life, I have to treat my throat with such delicate care. In the past, I would eat anything I want, and if I forget to drink water, it's really fine.

But now, I have to be real careful with what I eat, and also to make sure I don't abuse my vocals...........

But hey, the fact that life comes with some mysteries makes it more exciting.

Anyway, I'm seriously considering whether I should buy a mic. Boon three also uses one. But then again, I'll feel rather odd to be using one in class

Remember TechnoSphere?

In those days when we ruled the world, we used to play with this web game call Technosphere. It allows you to create and breed your pets online, afterwhich, you can monitor their lives via the site. You'll see where your animal roams, and hunts. Most of the time, they will eventually form their own family trees....... and sometimes, they or their children get killed. Other times, they hunt down other animals.

It has been years and the site, together with the animals has been forsaken.

Today, I got a surprised in my inbox. The site actually sent me an email, updating me about how my online pets have been doing after all these years......... Hahahahaaa. Many of them are still alive and doing fine. In fact, the family has grown. The creatures has reproduced and multiplied over the years. Sure brought by fond memories as I looked down the list of creatures I've created.



Here's the family tree of one of my online creatures.

Real Cold Jokes

Thanks to all the cold jokes I told Pachi yesterday, I woke up with a cold today. Been sneezing since last night........ sob

I've been thinking and collecting cold jokes lately, but only one has effect. The rest all not funny..........

Had a really good time catching up with dear Pachi, still as bubbly and cheerful. Ate nice dinner at a nice place. Oh yah, all the waiters had the same name........

We did some last min shopping before the shops closed, and we saw many many cute stuff in Action city.

Misc

This weekend has been unexpectably enjoyable. Spent lots of time with family, especially fish, grin. We finally had that much awaited breakfast which we've been talking about :)

These few days I've been hunting around for new clothes, but din managed to find anything I like enough to buy.

Oh, the other day I bumped into someone I haven't met for a long long long time. Chat a little and was really surprised that she knew the latest things going on in my life, like job and stuff... I nearly freaked out.

Probably someone told someone who told someone who told her.

Erm....... abit scary. Because I'm a rather private person, I dun like news to spread

First Week Of School

TGIF :D Tomorrow's saturday, so it kind of concluded the first week of school.

How has this week been......... as the usual story goes, my dear students are still warming themselves up. Can understand, because after having a long break, takes a while to get used to school again.

As for me, I have been very excited about the new term. Excited to see my students' smily faces .................. and bringing them to higher grounds.

Last sem has been really great. Every of my teaching moment is joyful because I saw how my students improved as the weeks went along. They did some really good work and I'm so proud of them. I see in them potentials............. I can imagine that someday they'll become successful people in the industry. It will be my greatest satisfaction, to know that I have groom them well, and developed their potentials.

It is so interesting, because most of the time, people are really more capable then they think they are. Therefore, my job is to help them see what they're capable of becoming.

New school terms always brings new promises ^_^
