Dum dee dum...

Added some photos in Friendster... go see... Some photos with the 3n1 guys I didn't add... will just keep k... Haha...

Happy Teachers' Day!

So touching today! My students gave me a big surprise by baking a cheesecake. The best part was that... we were told that... there was not supposed to be any food in the celebration. Watever la! Damn nice can... Lazy to upload photo.. haha... I took a photo of the blueberry cheesecake. Then there was the big card! Encouraged by their words :) Will strive to be a better teacher... I promise!

I know a lot of you are reading this okay!!! Lol. So, 3N1... thanks for all the memories... and the delicious cake... and the pretty card... and of course... not forgetting all those who came up to me with cards n gifts... yes I really appreciate it. :)

It's time to reflect...

after everything has ended.

How can I make my lessons interesting? More precisely, how can I make A.Maths lessons more interesting? It's hard (or almost impossible) to find real life applications for A.Maths, coz they are simply beyond the level of the students (sometimes even myself... geez). I need to search harder for interesting A.Maths applications and usage... coz I really feel the students' boredom during the lessons. How do I expect them to be interested when I am bored myself?

Anyway, I'm not very on-the-ball in looking for real life applications for E.Maths either... Lol... Too much effort required... And time does not permit either. Why... why must lessons be so hectic? I want my students to enjoy, to appreciate the beauty... but I need to appreciate it myself first. I have to transform... transform into Ms Real-Life Application. Lol. Zzz...

On a lighter note, took photos with my students today! Haha... it was fun! Not gonna post them here though... hehe. Actually felt quite sad during the last lesson... but didn't wanna show it. Yeah... me being trying-to-be-cool gal. Duhz. Wanted to tell them a lot of things. Wanted to tell them that I'll miss them... but Renie just couldn't do it... coz knowing myself, silly emotional myself... I had to hold the words back. Didn't manage to get much out except that they should rely on themselves to succeed and not depend on how good their teachers are. Coz... that was how I was... Bad habit. Renie!!! Depend on God and yourself! Yeah, so the taking photos part was simply to while time away and take my mind off the sad part. Gosh... I'm so lame. Haha.

Glad that I can blog more today... coz feeling nostalgic already, and in a mood to blog. More relaxed... now that the stressful period is over... for now. God... guide me in the journey to come...

It's the holiday mood!

Woohoo! It's ending! It's ending! Practicum is ending! But... I'll miss the school, the colleagues, and of course... the students. Well... there are new things to expect and anticipate at new places. So, I shall look to the near future and not be saddened by events that will pass soon. God will bring me through.

Twas a

horrid, torrid, borrid, whatever-you-name-it day. Just not my day. Thank God it's over.

Everything had to go wrong at the same time... yes... Murphy's Law holds true. Lol.

The kids made it better, and so did God. End of story.

@**#@!@#*X@##Z#@

End of story.

Practicum is ending soon!

Yay!

Feeling troubled...

Dunno what to do... need to make decisions and I feel inadequate. May God show the way...

2 more observations to go!!!

Yay. Should all be on next week, coz I need to finish up some topics with the class this week.

Just ended another observation today

3 more to go. All to squeeze in 2 weeks. The last week I need to keep it free...

Wanted to do 2 this week so I can relax for the last few weeks, but due to some problems... I can't. Yup, so I shall make use of the long weekend to prepare for the 2 observations next week. Hehe.

Going to visit some hotels this Thurs... going to watch movie with Dearie tonight! Yay... I need a break badly.

Thank God that the observation went well. :)

Now in the midst of finding a wedding banquet location and deciding how many tables we want. Quite fun, but tiring. Got to make appointments with the various hotels to see their prices and venues too. So far so good. Went to our first hotel on Thurs night, but was disappointed by the service of the banquet manager, so we are most probably not taking that up. Yup, looking forward to visit more hotels, now that we have broken the ice by meeting 1 hotel already.
