When was the road trip ever so long in a single day? Friday, 3 July 2009... I don't remember embarking on such a long trip in a single day. Almost 12 hours and after rest, another 2 hours. I think it is ridiculous, isn't it? There should be some form of recognition for the effort in such a long trip, yet could be fruitless trip as the journey doesn't seem to be enjoyable.Begin with the end in mind...

Today is the last weekday of the June vacation. This is probably one of the worst and boriest (most boring) vacation ever. No overseas vacation is something that cannot be condone with. But come to think of that; had a March trip to HK...sigh...too much things to handle, fighting wars hand in hand with only one or two comrades left is really tiring...the battle is ongoing...Labels: School

I cannot believe that it's only the 2nd week into the new school term and I'm starting to become senile. Today, forgot to bring laptop to class although I was carrying my laptop bag; then wanted to make. 3-in-1 kopi but forgot to add hot water, realised only when I got back to my desk. Woop....Tmr no Basketball training, can rest for an afternoon. But a long day into the late evening. Yeah, going CNY shopping after that at Chinatown with my wife. I think the last time we went was 3-4 yrs ago. Looking forward to supper oso. Relax for the weekend. But still got lots of things undone... sigh.
Ya, the children came n visit me on Tue afternoon, quite a number of them. Then the boys came as well in the evening on Wed, but I wasn't free to entertain them. Sorry...tired and busy after the CCA at 5pm. Next time treat you guys when u come again...

Hvnt been blogging for the past 6 days. Very n extremely busy with the start of the new work year. There are lots of routines to set right from the start. Ya, a few of you came back last Fri to 'visit' me. LOL. Jeanle, Yiling, Sze Lin, Iskandar, Godwin, Zhe Wei, Stanley and Ju Hang. I think some of you should hv completed your orientation camp, how's it? Its time for the real stuff---new subjects and more subjects this year now. Anyway, must enjoy yourself in school because schooldays are the best times in life, little worries...

Dear all, school's reopening soon in a few days' time. Time really flies man. 1 Nov, any idea what were we doing? Yeah, class party in the canteen. 1 Dec? Smart Smart...Chalet BBQ. 2 Jan? LOL Work for me, Study for you...yet again. The journey continues; homework's coming! More homework..doubled, tripled this time round. 24 hrs will nvr b enough 4 you soon. Some of you may find it tiring after a long day in skool. Some of you will enjoy it and nvr wanna go home to rest. You may skip dinner sessions with your families in time to come as you buzz yourself in school activities till late in the evenings. But do remember to rest well daily. Sleep is very important during your growing up years.
I was back from staff meeting in a resort in JB today. 2D1N. It looks like the time last year when I knew that I would be taking 6C 2008. But 2009 will be different as my form class pupils will be completely new to me. Got2 teach them how to take attendance (Sandra / Vila), how to take care of the class as monitors (Noah, Sandra, Irfan) , carry out AV duties (ZheWei, Godwin, Stanley, JuHang), Hsekeeping and cleanliness duties etc... Should be very challenging as they are still prob in their 8 yrs old stage...growing up to become 9 yrs old.
How's preparations for 2009? I hope you have been reading up, doing lots of revision work esp in Math as you will tend to forget even the easiest operations if you hadn't been practising. Well, I'ld say I'm ready for Day 1 and the new year ahead. Taking 6A 2009 through for their English Language lessons will be more challenging than 6C 2008.

Stay in contact via SMS or E-mail. Maybe the next outing or gathering is not far from now...

28 of us + Ms Lim + myself n my family came, had fun and left with many memorable memories. The success of the BBQ n Chalet was from everyone who had attended though those who couldn't stay had to rush to complete their BBQ-ing. Apologies for that. The flame could have been stronger in future so as everyone k put in his or her effort to try BBQ-ing.
To the 7 of u who stayed, hoped u had fun bowling, having McDonald's, watching Black Hawk Down (omit the high frequency words...), staying up until wee hours in the morning and swimming at such early morning. Rest well as the lack of sleep may hamper your next few days' activities.

Yesterday was Results Release Day. I went into the Meeting Rm, still feeling confident that all will clear. But it wasn't that story. Quite disappointed when I saw only 2 As for EL. Expected 10 of them to achieve an A but couldn't. Nevermind, its time to move on and help them to choose their schools for the next battle in 4 yrs' time - O Levels which is definitely much more impt than PSLE.Congratulations to everyone who have done well and exceeded your own expectations!
Top in Class: Lynette 216, Rui Jun 214, Iskandar 211, Sandra 210, Syafiqah and Cassandra 203, Wilber, Vilashany and Zhe Wei 200.
Well done boys and girls. Choose your schools wisely. Ask if in doubt.

Today is the P6 Graduation Day. Went to get ice-cream for the children as Ms Lim had already bought a cake for them. Heard they enjoyed the concert though didn't get to perform as a class. Nevermind, at least cherish the rehearsals and the process that came along with it.
Only 33 turned up today, still didn't get a whole class. Everyone had fun; the cake and ice-cream were scooped up within minutes. Everyone received the certificate as well. Signed and wrote encouraging words for them. Keep it safely!

The schedule for the next 2 weeks is out. Different from last year, but shd b quite alright as there r friends around in camp. How r my children in school? The 2 kids at home n in-law's place are doing fine. I wonder about those in class? Heard there is a war going on between so and so...over trivial matters. Aiya, still so childish? Quite boring though past 2 days - lots of waiting and waiting for this & that. Time wasted travelling to and fro home & camp. Never notice such crowded MRT trains during peak hours until recently. Pity those who have to use the MRT trains daily to & fro. Lucky me.
Goggi's been getting fatter these days. Her stomach looks BIG! Scared if she contracted womb infection like the previous dog, Chihuahua. Sze Lin has a nice ShinTsu but I dun like to comb its fur. Tedious task... Take care of yourselves!
