Outing!

Ok, today is View™ birthday. Happy Birthday! Not like someone forget mine -.-(cough*)

Alright, yesterday got 4INT outing! Met up with View Meng at senkang Mrt station, saw Jun Han there too. He was waiting for Malvin so we left first, and that View Meng, go and shortform Harbourfront station to HF station. Then some of them though it as Hougang station. So reached Harbourfront station on time, Hui Joo was there already. Surprise la, we though we are the first two that reach there. But nvm, even more shocking, Xue Ee and Jemaine are inside vivocity shopping liao! Then Wan Ting and Koon Tat appear soon later. So we have to wait for the others to come, wait wait wait, 1 hour 30 mins then everybody came. Except for Ming Hui lar, cause he got Reason one!(KOON TAT hor!) LOL, so we took the monorial to sentosa. Reach there already going lunch time liao, but heck! We continue play vollyball, then touch rugby then go swim. Elaine claim that she was a Pro in vollyball, but then she like stand there counting the score, and not doing anything. Haha xD. So we went back to Vivocity at around 3.30pm, was dead tired by then. Actually we're going to catch a movie, but then turn out go "shopping". Hungry already, went to Kopitiam see got what thing to eat, then walk one round. Airil dont have a choice there, so went to Banquet to eat instead. Nowadays, shopping centre food are expensive. After lunch, which is like 4pm. We all went our own ways, some go shopping, some went home, some went out. =D That's about it for our 2nd Sentosa outing this year.

Earth Hour

We agreed days before that we should do our part to save Earth and switch off all unnecessay power during Earth Hour (8.30pm to 9.30pm)on 28 March 2008. Oops, I was busy marking away and everyone else doing their own stuff when number 5 yelled that Earth Hour had already descended on us! It was 9.00pm! Frantically, we took out the candles, switched off all the house lights and sheepishly tried to do our bit for Mother Earth. One of the daughters had to shower in candlelight. The rest of us soaked in the ambience of the unfamiliar but otherwise quite romantic atmosphere. We noticed that most in our neighbourhood were not observing the occasion. The Significant Other had to spoil it all by barging home, a hungy and angry man, not to be stopped by Earth Hour in his quest to fix a quick meal!! So it was lights on in the kitchen . . . sigh!

Okay ... so we all know that it was a mere token observence and reminder of a bigger issue ---- that we must conserve energy and be mindful of caring for our Earth. I did my nagging bit of course; reminded everyone to use the heater and air-conditioning with prudence, to reuse and recycle as much as we can. Nope, I rejected the not-bathing-so-often suggestion. Nice try, kids!!

Missing wit and humour

I felt a void today. Suddenly missed the wit and humour of some of my colleagues from HIHS. Kind of also wished that sometimes religion could be the anchor that lost souls look to for stability.

Anger Management

The weather has been incredibly hot and humid lately, and it is really quite torturous for students and teachers alike to sit out long hours in classrooms. But still, there is no excuse for anyone to dispense with manners and civilities. Really! Today, two of my students almost fought over classroom cleaning duties. Why? Just because one of them would not thank the other for helping out, and insist on being inflexible about assigned duties. Haiz . . . I can understand why there would always be wars in our world!

When everything is cooler, including the weather, I shall have to sit the students down for a good talk.

I detect so much anger in people these days. Not a good thing. We 'explode' at the slightest agitation, and have no patience to consider others' feelings and viewpoints.

RoAd TrIp

Alright just came back from hospital. Had a very eventful day yesterday. Woke at 7 plus in the morning. Cycle to Lenson house at 8.30am, then waited for View Meng to call me. So MingHui, Lenson and Me waited until 9.30 plus then he came -.- Uber late lor. Then we started to cycle along Ubi road then pass Eunos and finally reach East Coast park. So MingHui brought along his camera, and we took pictures there. So we carry on our trip till Changi Village. In the midst, my mum call me and told me that my Grandpa had been admitted to hospital. Plan had change, so i detour to the hospital while the rest continue their journey. I got nothing much to say, so i'll just let the pictures to the work!=]

School's out!

School's out for us in Secondary and Primary schools! Finally, I can take a breather and devote some time to see to the little things that were just simply set aside amidst all the rush during the past academic term. In fact, I have just finished sewing the name tags for the boys that just wouldn't adhere by their stick-on backs, mended a couple of burst blouse sleeve seams, and caught up with the tons of ironing . . . One more basketball jersey to mend, a couple more skirt hooks to fix and all the kids' uniforms and school attire should be in order. I can't wait for all their sewing skills to reach "auto-pilot" standards so that I might "retire"!

For the next few days, I intend to catch up with some reading ---- not for work, but for pleasure; maybe go to the movies; and ah yes . . . dare I say to the gym?! Wish me the discipline to really make good use of my precious one week March hols!
