i received my 1st teachers day card today.. even though its 2 days early, but my students gave me one today.. i was really surprised n touched.. n i was suddenly very glad tt i was teaching them..
even though there were times when i wondered whether my efforts were to be naught.. i realised tt to know tt i meant something to them, was the greatest form of appreciation tt they could give me.. of coz if they can come out with very gd results, it would be the best, but as long as they've really made the effort, i'll be really satisfied.
there's a lot of work tt i need to do.. just finished one tutorial, another is coming up next wk.. i've gone through one sem only half-motivated.. n up till now.. i still cant get myself focused.. i'm still trying.. n i'm hoping tt i can snap out of it soon..

there was a bazaar in sch a few days back, n the person who was doing palm readings was back.
heard from my frens tt the guy quite accurate in terms of talking abt personalities, so i decided to try it out.
n well.. i do agree tt his words were quite true.
1) i am a very logical person. (but like wad the guy said, life isn't logical sometimes)
2) i am a very efficient n organised person, so i'm suited for being the leader. (yes i can be organised, but tt doesnt mean i can be a leader)
3) becoz i'm so efficient, i won't get sacked by my boss, but i'll likely sack my boss. (erm.. i can sack my boss mehz..)
4) i'm rather stubborn n bull-headed. (hehe quite true lahz..)
5) i'll likely end up alone in the future. (either as a nun or a widow *touch wood*)
6) i have a strong aura. (erm.. does tt explain why ppl always stare at me when they see me? wad colour is my aura anyway?)
7) i can get misunderstood by ppl very easily. (gosh i didnt know tt..)
8) i have 男人缘, which means i get along well with guys. (yah i know tt, i thought it was just becoz i'm a tomboy, or a guy stuck in a girl's body..)
9) i'm a money attractor, which means either i'll earn a lot of money, or my hubby will earn a lot of money. (basically saying tt i can become a tai-tai next time.. hehe.. i dun mind tt =P)
10) i got no 孩子缘, which means i got no luck with children. (this doesn't mean tt i won't have children; i'll likely not be close to my children, or they'll likely be overseas most of the time n they won't reach back home in time to see me for the last time, i may have a hard n long labour when i give birth as well)
11) 2010 will either be my boom or bust, but it'll be highly likely to be a boom yr for me. (2010 is when i graduate.. i hope this means i'll get very gd grades..)
12) i'm compatible with laogong, but both of us are quite stubborn, so i have to learn to give way. (this is base on our birthdates lahz.. but laogong isnt very stubborn lehz..)
ok tt's all i can really rem lahz.. i'm taking it as a pinch of salt.. but this pinch of salt is very ex lehz.. $25.. haiz..

sch has started a week ago, n i'm already buried up to my neck for work. all the assignments, projects n tutorials are set on paper, n i have 3 exam papers at the end of the sem. its scary, n even though i'm supposed to have been used to this hectic life, i still dread it.
one of my lects was talking abt reflecting, n thinking abt reflecting. when my tutor quoted an e.g. tt she had, i suddenly realised why i had never been able to remember stuff in my textbooks n notes etc. its not really becoz i'm scared, but its becoz i've never reflected on wad i've learnt in my lessons on tt day itself, n i pushed my revision almost to the last min every time. i always find excuses for myself tt i didnt have time to revise, tt i need time to rest etc, but to tell the truth, i just didnt like to study. n perhaps i still don't. i claim to love history, but i've never really revised work or reflected on wad i've learnt in class.
so wad am i interested in? wad spurs me on?
i still dunno.
n i realise.. i dun really know myself.

quite some time since i updated my blog.. shall backdate then..
12th july went to the UNAS forum.. quite interesting.. but looong forum lahz.. hehe.. as usual, a lot of ppl left halfway.. left mel n i still listening to the forum.. coz someone impt recognises us.. bleahz.. =P
anyway after tt, mel n i went walking ard, then met his friend to have dinner together. they chose to have dinner at this place called cedele. the waitress was quite blur lahz.. she came over to serve us a dish when we were still ordering from another waitress, then she came to our table at least 2 more times with dishes tt wasn't ours. so mel's friend kidded tt if the waitress comes again, we'll just say its ours.
yep tt's the paper mat.. a lot of facts on herbs etc. tt they use in the restaurant.. seems to be healthier choice liddat.. supposed to have a lot of gd qualities to help our bodies..
this is wad i ordered: rosemary sea salt chicken. i dunno whether the salt really came from the sea.. (if it is, i hope its clean) it taste pretty nice actually, worth the price.. n i ate some of the vege for once! haha.. there's fried potato something as well, really nice too!
this is my dessert, named as "we love choco!" yep i chose this becoz there's supposed to be a lot of choco! the brownie n biscuits were ok, the fruits weren't, coz the kiwi was sour! bleahz.. mel's friend ordered chili choco, i didn't dare taste it..
n this was their water pitcher! so interesting, when we asked for our water to be refilled, the waitress gave us this water pitcher, to refill ourselves. so i thought, if water refilling is self-service, they should reduce the service charge tt they're charging us.
moving on to last thur, went to jjc with xingle n mingchee, to talk to handsome ng. after tt went jp with xingle for shopping, n we went fei cui for dinner!
century egg and lean meat porridge
hokkien fried rice (interesting, a little bit like mui fan)
garlic prawn (really yummy!)
n lastly, coffee chicken (i forgot the full name).. salty, but special taste!
oh well, times of enjoyment have passed by rather quickly, n a new yr is starting tmr. i must work really really hard to maintain or pull up my gpa.. i want to get my $5000!!
