'Damn Exam Period'

Think I can start blogging again...woohoo! But first, mz try to make up my 'ruined' gym plans and my saturday jog all because of this powerful thing called 'flu bug'. But ahem..secretly triumphs about it. Then again, I kinda slacked too..haiz...i ate chocolates, like three pieces ++ of it. It was my brother! He bought the chocolates for me! You see, my so-called philosophy about chocos is that I will no longer buy it and if I want to eat it, people have to give it to me and then I'll eat it. Yeah, I know it's stupid but people buying or giving me chocolate is almost at a ratio of 1:impossible. Oh, and after the stress of teaching my brother maths last sunday, and also stress over my constantly grumbling stomach (oh the 'pain'..the 'PAIN'...!), went down to the shop around 9pm and bought a packet of cheetos. Okay, so I didn't manage to eat the whole pack coz of a certain 'someone' who can't see food dangling infront of his eyes whether or not the person is aware of. Oh well..maybe at times like this, I appreciate him more for finishing up something I bought on impulse.

So what have I been up to? I don't do much on the net that some people are asking where have I been? I guess I logged on during the times when they're busie watching the telly or having their dinner. I am not reallie a 'tv' person and I dont eat much of dinner nowadays. Heck, I don't even have dinner. Then, that leisure time has been cut into half coz a)my brother logged on to watch something he happened to come across, and like, over and over again or b) have to sit down and teach him for exams. A thousand apologies to all those whom I cut off suddenly in the middle of the chat coz I couldn't wait for them to say goodbye. Believe me, my mum's constant nagging to go teach my brother drives me up the wall. But I tell ya, half the time is spent just persuading him to study...and tolerating with his 'die die dont wanna study' attitude. And yesterday he barked at me saying that it's his exams, not mine..so why am I so concerned? Dammit..the naive boy, he still doesn't get it that if he DO NOT do well, I get it too. I care more about my reputation than his. And when he can't do the paper or certain questions, oh BLAME it on the sister, for NOT teaching him the questions. WOw, thanks for the credit man. As if I didn't teach him...it's just him who couldn't get the concept in his head despite repeatingly saying it. It's like..haiz..between me and the tv...the tv seems more interesting than having to listen to mathematical concepts. I so dont blame him..but it sure is tiring competing against the all-mighty tv.

Anyway, let's hope that he does well this round. That's my wish for every freakin' exam semester of his...haiz....

Being a Teacher isn't Easy

I work with teachers but I'm not a teacher. I actually work in the admin department and I like my job though sometimes it can be challenging especially when I feel swarmed by it. Or when my boss keeps calling me for work related stuffs especially when she is doing the approval for payment or vetting through. So, the headache. Anyway, I can honestly say most teachers are really nice though some are really driving me up the wall. That or they are just simply aint nice but then, it is also because of their personality. But as teachers, they are really dedicated. I also deal with parents and honestly, they can be demanding and very irritating and they are not scared of the higher authority in school. To them, they are being like that all because they care for their children but they are overbearing as if they don't let their children make mistakes and learn. Plus, whatever their children said, they believe every bit of their story though they are not there to see for themselves an...

A Reminder to the Living

Recently, we lost our former President when he passed away at the age of 92. He was known to have his heart for the people although those who worked closely with him couldn't actually picture him as that for he was a taskmaster when it came to work. He did his own narratives and do the best that he could as he knew where he came from and wanted to make good out of his life.  He showed that the circumstances that we are in can't stop us from going far in life. We should continue to focus on our actions, has strong dedication and when things get difficult, look at the bigger picture and understand why we are here. Ultimately, we should all be working towards the purpose we have in mind which makes things easier to cope. Thank you for helping the Singaporeans especially those who needed help most. You would always be the people's President. On the other spectrum, a young child had also lost his life. A few of my colleagues witnessed the events which unfolded in front of...

Our First Group Meeting After Graduation

It has been a long time coming since the last time we met was on Graduation Day although I did meet up with 3 of them quite recently for a birthday celebration. I somehow never seem to miss out on any of the gatherings including the time when we went to a coffee shop after our stressful Econs exam papers. Still don't know how we survived that miraculously..haha.. Anyway, I've always been a silent supporter to this friendly bunch of people who always make me feel inclusive knowing that I am a lady of few words, haha.  We went to this restaurant called PU3 and although the service staff should really write down orders so that we don't always have to remind them that two of our drinks had not arrived get our orders wrong. I mean it's for their customers' benefit and also their own so that they don' undercharge their customers. Just saying. They serve Nasi Ambeng served in a big dulang or tray that is meant to be eaten by 2, 4 or 6 people which is m...
