UPDATES 9FEB-25 FEB
1) Since the last entry was on the Science Symposium Competition, I am proud to announce that we have clinched the 'Most Creative Award'. Surely and definitely, the journey through preparing for this competition was pretty hectic, but I enjoyed it. The kids were fun to work with, although they can be really playful sometimes, ok most of the time, and of course a big thank you to all the helpful colleagues. Nevermind that we did not emerge the top 3 schools. The deserving schools claimed the prize. They were definitely better in terms of relaying the contents of their science concepts.
2) I decided to have a PARTNER exactly 2 weeks ago. Yet to meet but I am already feeling the jitters . Another of those life-changing decision and hopefully a right one. We have promised to be there for each other. He's going to be my companion, my comfort. Please down let me down. I just need you to be there for me, to always be strong for me.
I can't wait to see you, to touch and take care of you with all my heart.
3) Went to desaru during the CNY holiday with the extended maternal family. Some 40 odd people squeezed into two rooms! Haha can you imagine that?! No lah not that we are so cheapskate as to save on the cost of the rooms. Firstly, we were told that it was a villa. So we had this great idea that it was going to be big and spacious. So well just 2 would be enough. Kongsi2 kan lagi best. Macam lagi meriah. Secondly, some were not confirmed coming, so we did not want to waste booking more rooms than necessary. But in the end, we came in a convoy of 7 cars! Despite the space constraint, we managed to arrange ourselves neatly to sleep. Daytime was not so much of a problem, cause we were mostly out in the swimming pool, playing outdoor games and 'lepak'ing outside. It was still a nice break despite the fact that I had to drag two big bags of books and worksheets to mark.
*Really, I don't wish to be such a workaholic, but I have to complete those markings in order to return my pupils the books for them to revise for CA1. And also because of the Science Symposium competition, I had to abandon much of my markings. So please understand my position.*
4) And since back from Desaru last Tuesday, I have been under the weather. Extended the long break till Wednesday cause I was down with fever. Got 2 days MC but could only afford to take a day off. And till now, I am still now well. I basically had to resort to 'silent' teaching on Friday because I was voiceless. Using the portable mike still did not help because the little voice that remained was so coarse. I am still sounding like Papa Rock now. I think the sexy voice is here to stay for quite sometime.
Hhmm seems like work is never missed out from almost all my entries. Perhaps next time, I'll talk more about my partner.
And I'm all excited for Az!! Baby's coming out soon and I can't wait to see little Ryan. He's surely gona be a handsome and charming dude. Well you've just gota blame that on the parents haha.
