HAHA.

yup. totally agree =D

been watching 败犬女王 and some other jap show. defeated queen is touching as it's like closer to heart, whereas the latter is somewhat like the jap hama kimi,but with more punch. it is also more relaxing and lightening.

school's been okay actually.

just that i've been slacking so much, wasting so much time, i haven't been studying. so it's been quite stressful for me. cos i know i'm lagging behind. like now. i'm actually quite frustrated, cos i intended to spend the whole of this afternoon studying, but because i ended up using the comp printing stuffs, i ended up surfing the net and so on. so the whole afternoon's now gone. shit.

last friday, accompanied sis to cdans (i can't rmbr the new name) for the interfaculty shoot. was quite hmm. cos i sat down there for nearly 2 hrs, just watching sis shoot. but i'm glad her results were quite gd, although she's not satisfied. but i think it's already quite gd, cos she hasn't been shooting since like 2006.

last sunday we had home-made yu sheng. i gave up chopping the veges, cos i tried but my mum said that they were too thick, so threw what i cut away. haha. but i cut the jellyfish! it was damn hard to cut ok! i spent like nearly 1 hr just to cut it.
it was so yummy.

our neighbours were so nice, i was taken by much surprise. they were a young couple, who just moved in like this last december. they gave us a box of wang wang biscuits.

it's kinda cool. cos you have all types of wang wang biscuits inside, kinda like the old fashioned metal tin biscuits that a few different kinds of biscuits, sugary, chocolate etc. haha. we gave them a box of ferrero roche in return =).

green bean cookies are yummy! me and sis chose them over the ones made by bengawan solo which we thought were too sweet and a bit overcooked. i failed at making them myself, cos i didn't manage to get green bean powder, and neither do i have the equipment to make the powder myself.

peahes are really pretty! haha. and here's a pict. cos one of them has this pretty leaf. haha. like so freshhhhh. =D they're sweet too. and they're cheaper this time, my bought them at each 60cents, when it used to be 1 dollar.

and cats are kinda eerie. cos one day my sis and mum went down late in the night. the moment the lift door opened, there was a pretty cat there (my sis said it was very cute, super cute and pitiful with big eyes). and when they were back up, another cat was standing right in front of our house. and it was mewing. like 10 floors up the hdb, a black cat? eeks. so like through the night while i was sitting at the table, which happens to be next to the windows near the corridor outside, the cat was went meowing and meowing. and it was really eerie. sending all the creeps up my back.

thursday.

had to go send my brother off, he's now in france for a competition. his flight was 12am, so we had to take the cab all the way there at 9.30pm, and he checked in at 11pm. mum and i had some supper and took a cab back home, cos there was no more mrt. and omg. i was damn shocked when i saw the fare. $36.90. for a ride from changi airport to jurong west. when we went there it was $25.60. but becos it was 12.30am when we reached home, there was extra fee. OMG. i was damn shocked. $60. for taxi. i could have used that to buy sis the boots that she had looked and liked and decided not to buy, cos it was too pricey. i could have used that to buy me a new bag, cos i need one... OMG. i could have eaten 20 bowls of noodles....

work yesterday was.

DAMN. sianed.
cos my boss was really.

haiz.
i was really. sad. and frustrated.

although i have new students now.

it has also made me more frustrated.

sec2/3 english. how to teach that a group of 5 students, with 2 of considerably high standards in english, 2 struggling and 1 with near primary school standard? besides that, sec2 eng paper and sec 3 eng paper are very diff from each other?

my boss doesn't care about that at all. forget that she actually promised to prepare materials for our lessons when i first signed the contract. we are now zapping all the things now ourselves. and esp. the photocopy machine seems to have smth against me in particular.
and there she asks me to consult this other guy teacher teaching maths for ways to teach. and i so hear that he doesn't give his students homework.. but is able to cause good results.. and how he focuses on teaching working and methods (okay, how about hearing what have i to say first). but i've already decided to keep my mouth shut. like comparing myself to this tcher who has 4 yrs working experience there compared to my 1 yr? my boss does have reason to doubt me eh? anything goes wrong is my fault? oh my. i was quite pissed at first, then i actually became not angry anymore. cos i thought, that's working life.

amazing me.

but i have to try and figure out how to continue help the students now.

probably.

i should follow what he says? no homework. that'll be good.

haha.

there was a puppet show.
which only went on for one night. very disappointed.

but it was also quite funny. cos the puppets' strings were all tangled. and she were still trying to let the show go on, but it was so hard. so in the end, she actually decided to come out right to the front of the stage and try to disentagle them, so it was quite comical.

hmm.

and its really late now. haiz.

i must study. i need to. geez.

i've found out where i stand.

i think. i've always absorbed the fact. but hmm..

oh ya.

there was a class gathering last saturday to celebrate adelle's birthday. i actually decided to go..

but in the end, i didn't. hmm.
