Teachers' Day soon!

I've completed reading "Reign of Shadows" by Deborah Chester and went on to complete "Shadow War"(book2) and "Relm of Light" (book3). Finally, I've completed the The Ruby Throne Trilogy by Deborah Chester and I can return the books.

Just borrowed "The Fall of Neskaya" by Marion Zimmerbradley and Deborah J. Ross. It is book one of The Clingfire Trilogy.

Tomorrow, I've to conduct the NAPFA re-test. Another very long day for me. Sob. Anyway, the school cockpit system doesn't seem to generate a complete list for me... I don't seem to have everyone who missed the test in the list. I wonder why the system doesn't show me the complete data.

Today is another bad day in school. However, it's over. Just thank God I survived. Praise God.

I'm a BOOKWORM!

Have anyone read "Eragon" by Christopher Paloni?
The second book is the "Eldest"! Finished the books recently and I can't wait for the 3rd book, "Inheritance", to be sold in the stores.

I'm also a fan of Trudi Canavan's books.
Read "The Magician's Guild", "The Novice" and "The High Lord".
Finished "Priestess of the White" and waiting for "Last of the wilds" to be sold in stores too.

I'm now reading "Reign of Shadows" by Deborah Chester. Must try to finish this book soon. Unlike the above books, this was borrowed from the library. I've also borrowed the 2nd and 3rd book of this series! That's a lot of reading to occupy my September holidays! Yeah!

New skin for my blog!

This is my new skin! One of my pupil complained that my previous praying angel was ugly. So sad. Liked that picture alot as it always reminded me to pray. Especially when things aren't going right in my life. God is my answer and has my solutions to all my problems.

Last Saturday's BBQ was fantastic. Great to see my teammates again. Especially those who had been missing in action for quite a while. Ms Tang says that there will be training coming Sat. Finally, we are training again. Time to shed of those kilos gained over the break and during the BBQ! Guess it was her intention to have us eat alot and then we have no excuses but to work away all the fats!

Finally CA2 EL is over. So worried. The paper seemed easier, wonder how my class will fare. Got to go early to school tomorrow for common marking of exams paper. Better sleep earlier.

I was supposed to be a reserve examiner but it seems Cindy was on MC so I was deployed to Unity Pri Sch as OE1. Thank goodness my partner was a nice guy..... ( though I would probably prefer someone handsome instead)

Anyway, hope my little girls have done well . It didn't seem too hard but then again, this is the point of view of a teacher, not a student. With God blessings, they should do well.

Visited Chana today, her baby boy is so cute and tiny. (of course just born dar.. ) Spent some time chatting with her. Poor girl, she looks to be in pain. Gosh, I don't think I want to give birth anymore! How did my mom put up with the pain and lack of sleep. It seems, little Nikkil wakes up every few hours for milk. Poor Chana, has to wake up to feed him all the time. As it is, Chana won't be well enough to attend our teacher's day dinner coming Fri, I promise I'll eat her share! Haha!

Tomorrow is my JC class reunion. Excited to meet by crazy bunch of friends but then again, the one who I don't think I should meet may be there. May be an awkward situtation tomorrow.

In the evening, I'll be going to East Coast Park. My basketball Club is having BBQ and Games! Sure to be fun!

Completed my 7th song today... think I should stop writing songs for the time being. Too much time taken.

My Heroines,

I've post a dedication for 2 great teachers in my life! They were the ones who showed me that they cared. Many things that I do now as a teacher were inspired by these two great teachers. By the way, they were once National recipients of the Most Caring Teacher award! Thank you Ms Annie Chan and Miss Yau Yan Leng.

Sigh.. need to wait for my dedications to be moderated before they post it up. You can read about my great teachers at the "teachersday" web link.

Broadway Beng!

Watched the musical Broadway Beng this evening! It is suppose to be rather hilarious but I guess my limited 'hokien' knowledge didn't allow me to truelly enjoy the essences of the jokes made in the show. However, the audiences did had an entertaining time and I, though unable to understand some jokes was amused mostly by the top-notch showmanshp by lead actor Sebestian Tan and his co-actresses.

Managed to complete my 2 new songs. Somehow I find them sounding rather familiar. Wonder which songs I 'stole' the ideas from for these 2 new piano pieces. Can't seem to identify, only that they sounded familiar. Hope oneday I could write enough songs to publish a piano book for kids. Wonder if that is ever possible??

National Day Holiday

So wonderful to finally take a break from work. Kel thinks we were nuts to put up the musical skit for National Day. I think so too. Took so much time preparing, rehearsing and making the props. Glad the children enjoyed themselves and learnt something from it. Now I can only hope that I still have time to catch up with my work.

Poor kids. Their exams so near and so many things happening. I really dont have the time to do much revision with them. Want to do so many things for them but always tied for time. Why is it that the older we grew, we seemed to have less time? (more work probably)

Had nightmares last night. Had been the case since I was a little girl. Remembered how I used to escape from demons nights after nights. Didn't dare to sleep at night. Thank God that after my baptism, my nightmares reduced and could actually "control" my nightmares and cast demons out of my dreams. How wonderful Jesus and His Great power is. All praises goes to HIM! Amen.

Relax! For a time being only.

Finally both P3 and P4 games are over. Glad most children enjoyed it. Worth all the hard work when you see their happy faces when they played the game and also when they received the trophies. Probably the first trophy in their lives for some.

Now it is time for National Day Performance. Hope my class don't disappoint me.. (actually I'm the one who has not yet learn the song and actions, heehee .. guilty.. been too busy)

Look forward to Friday night's basketball game. Another good team, would be fun. Sigh... hope I'd more time for training. Need to get back into shape. Better sleep now, need to train my little little ones tomorrow morning. Hope they improve quickly!
