A long awaited entry...
Hi all, i wonder if you missed me? It has been about half a year since i last blogged. Well, been very busy lately. Too busy till i nearly went mad.
I wish to blog about work, but that is not what i wish to do. Seriously, i am not in the mood to think of work. Why? Well, for the obvious reason that it is the school HOLIDAY! Unfortunately, my happiness is of cause short lived. But, it is ok, i will turn it to my advantage. Have fun while i still can, before i become a stressed up girl.
I am upset...depressed...hurt...and afraid. That is all i shall reveal for now. Those of you who i have talked to, will know what has happened...
2:23 a.m. - June 15, 2006
hmm, ok for this June holiday you can say that i have been really busy. I have had to go for 2 school trips. Both turned out to be really great. I enjoyed myself thoroughly. One was the company with the teacher and the other with my students.
I shall not elaborate on the Loola trip i went. 
Before leaving for KL, i went for my poly/NIE friend's wedding. She is finally married to her high school sweetheart who has converted for her. So sweet right.
Now, as for the KL trip. I have enjoyed myself. It was a trip that i gained a lot from. I was glad that i was able to interact with the students.
I was blessed with lovely students to work with for 2 days and my PSL boys who for my sake, behaved themselves. I was happy to hear that my PSL boys respect me a lot. That is one thing that makes a teacher really happy. All i can say is that PSL rawks!
My Group C bonded over the 2 days that we worked together. We were really close, and i was even close to them. I talked to them on both a teacher and friend level. I guess that is when i gained respect from them. They told me things and i advised them. They even adopted my name and changed it a little, as their middle name. Oh, the name is Sabriano. I really love the kids from my group. They were really a wonderful bunch of kids.
What made me touched was when they were wrongly accused, they did not argue. Instead, they went to clear up the mess, because to them, what mattered most was that i believe that they did not do it. And i believe that it was not them.
Do you know that i cried in front of them. Twice was because of the old folks that we worked with. The other was for them, as they have really touched me a lot. They too did cry for me. That was how close we were. I hope that they will all stay this close. 
Hmm, school is starting soon. I am still in the holiday mood. I need my break. 2 weeks was spent 'babysitting' students. This is supposed to be my relaxation week. Oh man, how am i going to convince myself to start on my work. Must start soon....

My New Green Addidas Watch....bought it myself too...
Was greeted with a big surprise when i went back to my table after my invigilation duties. Well, i did wonder who gave the chocs to me. Thoughts like one of the teachers to Suraidah to well, an admirer and a student. I open the card and tried to search for the person's name...but the person signed off as 'Me' I skim through the note and low n behold...it was from my dearest friend, Hayati. Was really touched and nearly cried...Tanks gal...She played delivery woman and went to my sch, alin's sch at tamp, ram's sch at bdk and fad's sch at serangoon. Really appreciated that kind gesture...

You always want what you can't have.
YOu often love doing things that you are not supposed to.
You wish for things to happen knowing that it may never come true...

someone asked me what is the purpose of having a blog? he felt that it is ridiculous as we are like showing off things we have done and all.
for me it is about letting my friends that i do not contact on a regular basis in on what i have been up to. to me this is my other form of communication with my friends.
oh well....so here i m, going to let u know what has been going on. basically nothing much really happened. just the normal going to school and leaving school really late stuff. had a great 22nd bday at aloha changi with khairudin and friends.
just this week, i was on a gals night out with my fellow colleagues. all of whom i treat as my good friends. we went to arab street and at at this turkish restaurant. i forgot what is the name. we went to the second floor. and i like the setting. the food was great. we then went to esplanade for chocolate at Max Brenner. it was pure indulgence. i was intoxicated by the chocolate. i had a great time with them. having heart to heart talks and at the same time, laughing at each others' foolishness. cant wait to have such an outing again...
now, i m at home. finally. have been going to school from Mon-Thur....what a way to spend my one wk holiday right.
i cant complain. at least i m off today....kekeke
11:37 p.m. - March 06, 2006
THANKS ALL!!!
JUST WANA SAY THANKS TO THOSE OF YOU WHO ATTENDED MY BDAY CHALET. AND NOT FORGETTING THE PRESENTS YOU GOT ME.
I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO THANK MY STUDENTS WHO GOT ME GIFTS. AND MY FORM CLASS WHO ORGANISED A MINI BDAY PARTY FOR ME.
i m deeply touched by all my students. some of which actually planned to call me on the morn of my bday to wish me. thanks....
11:21 p.m. - March 06, 2006
together forever?
being in a relationship is great. maintaining a good relationship is takes a lot of hard work.
staying together...needs a tremendous truck load of efforts...
1:10 p.m. - January 11, 2006
Oh Well....
It is already the 2nd week of the New Year. How fast time flies. Let me just recap what kept me busy on New Year's Eve. I spent it in the cinema, watching The Family Stone with Khairudin and my cousin, Zalina. It was a rather interesting movie. I was not in much mood to enjoy the show as I much rather spend my countdown elsewhere. Oh well...
Started the new day of the New Year at my Aunt's place. One of my very very close cousins, Aini, got engaged on that day. What a way to start the New Year.
School for the first week went on a supersonic speed. Mainly because I was busy with the Secondary One students as I am a form teacher of one of the classes. Most of the days were spent collecting forms and data from students. I hardly had any time to really breath. The day would start at 710am and end as late as 945pm for me. you can say that I was really worn out. That week, I would go home and head straight for my bed where I rest my tired self.
I always wanted to experience constant vomiting or diarrhea in order to lose weight. And I guess I got what I wished for. After eating prawns that were not cooked properly on Sunday night, I started regurgitating at around 3am. This lasted till 11am. You can say I was really in pain. It was no fun...but I lost 1kg. Yes I know, only 1kg, but I am extremely proud of it. Hee. Weird right. Well, what can I say, I m the weirdest person you have come across.
I read some blogs and some of them had things like New Year's resolution and all. I have decided not to make any. Why, you may ask. Simply because I know that I will not stick to it. So why declare my resolution publicly when I jolly well know I may not achieve it. No offense to those who have shared their resolution to us. you people seem to have a stronger will than I do, is all I can say. Maybe one day, the great procrastinator might change her ways and start keeping to her resolution instead of procrastinating day in and day out.
What I would like to point out is this. Recently the Northstar exercise was conducted to alert Singaporeans on what they should do if they encounter such a scenario. All I can say is that I am utterly disappointed with the ugly Singaporeans present. I am venting my anger or voicing out my displeasure because my boyfriend was one of the NS men who took part in this exercise. Do you know how many tired nights and mornings they have to train for this?
This is not my only displeasure. I just read on the news about civilians taking fire that took place in Seoul Garden, Ngee Ann City, lightly. Correct me if I am wrong. There are some who stop and take pictures of the pumper? OMIGOD! What do they think this is? Carnival @ Marina? This is pure madness. Khairudin was re-enacting a conversation he had with the Best Denki staff, where the staff would rather punch their card before their safety. When I heard that, I laughed and at the same time was in utter disbelief. I felt to myself that these people care more about making money than saving their lives. Oh well...
I shall stop here, don't want to offend anyone else. If I have offended anyone, I am truly sorry. I am just a gal who wants to say her 2cents worth...

HSC Open House
Today has got to be the longest and most tiring day of my life. My throat was extremely dry and my legs were killing me. Wanted to see my 1N2 kids play soccer. But had to attend the stupid staff closure. haiz...so stupid. Anyway, they won!!!! YAY!!!..
Was in charge of Peer Support Leaders booth. so lent them my support by allowing them to paint my face and hands...

1N2 2005
Today is officially the last day of school for the students. I m sure gonna miss my 1N2 kids. I hope that i can get to teach them and be their form. I think i have fallen in love with each and everyone of them.
I remember the first day i was going to enter their class. I was nervous as it was going to be my 1st time teaching English. Eventhough i heard from teachers that i have to be stern when teaching a normal academic class....i was unable to do so as the days passed. 
There were days when i had to stop teaching as the class was too noisy. And there was a time when i walked out of the class as they were too noisy. At that time, i was nearly in tears. There were times when students would make me laugh hysterically. And with them i felt very comfortable and soon my thick skinned and sarcastic nature came out. hahaha.
Now let me talk abt the boys first. I would often get irritated by these few students, Reuben, Wei Kang, Ignatius, Linus, Gabriel, Daniel and Dao Hong. They were the ones who were either too noisy or destructive. Funny how right now, i m close to Reuben, Linus and Ignatius. I treat them like my lil bros. We talk abt anything and i am very open with them. I really look out for these three. Making sure that they do well.
Now let's talk abt the gals. i am close to the malay gals. always able to joke around with them. and i had a bad encounter with one of the chinese gal.
Basically, i am closer to the boys. i m nt too sure why myself. i hope my loyal subjects; Reuben (my crown prince), Ignatius (my loyal servant), n Linus (my guard), 
would all stay the way they are. Don't change at all. 1N2 2005 ROCKS forever!!!
2:44 p.m. - October 17, 2005
Happy shalala...
I am so HAPPY!!!!, or rather, extremely happy or ELATED!
Why? Well, coz my dearest 1N2 improved on their paper 2. From only 11 passes for their common test to 20 passes....well, it doesnt seem much, but it means alot to me. 30 of them improved! i just hope that they can all pass their English on the whole...
Words cannot express how i m feeling right now.

HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY!!!!
To all my teacher friends and my teachers who have guided me.
Yes, i have been MIA
. Been very busy lately. Managed to squeeze some time to blog.
Yesterday was the teachers' day celebration. My Displine Master nearly told me off coz he tot i was one of the students. Hahaha, coz i was wearing polo-t and the students' PE shirt is also Polo-T. hee
Well, my students had the intention of surprising me. But i guess it didnt really work. But i really appreaciate that kids. And some of them left their gifts for me on the table. You can say i was very touched and was nearly in tears, though not very obvious. They sorta begged me not to teach today and play some games instead. And we did. We played WACKO
. I had lotsa fun. Tanks kids for making that day enjoyable for me.
The concert was alright. I discovered that HSC's students are all rather talented. Enjoyed the concert.
Went back to the staff room and read the cards given by the students. Was about to cry when one of the students said that i m a great teacher and she appreaciates me.
Went for our staff lunch over at Downtown East at Sakura. Well, the food there is not so bad. but i felt that it was very crowded. But it is afterall a buffet.
Met up with Edwin and Holly after school. We went to the Bubble tea shop at Downtown East. Really miss them alot. Hope we will be able to meet up more often. Edwin told me that i m not as bubbly as i was in practicum. I asked khairudin if he tot so too. And he said yah. I guess i could be overworked and lack of rest.
When i got home, i was totally shagged out. Fell aslp real early.
Thanks kids for making my day enjoyable. And thanks kids and colleagues for all your gits.
3:45 p.m. - August 01, 2005
Met up with some of my ex-classmates from BDS at Kenny's 21st Bday party. I dragged Fad along. I guess i just needed her or Khairudin to be there. But as Khairudin didnt want to go, Fad went in his place. While walking to Kenny's house, i felt nervous. It could be because this is the first time after 6 years that I will see him face-to-face and sort of communicating with him. To me going there was more of seeing my ex-classmates. And i did. Raj, Syah, Alice and Indah was there. Paresh was also there too. I had a great time chatting with them. Wish i could do this again.
Yes, I sinned once again...my face was RED!!!
Ok, didn't really take much pics. But....enjoy.

Teaching...
Everything has its ups and downs. Teaching is NO
exception.
I try my very best to enter each class with a smile. A smile to start off the lesson.
I placed myself in the shoes of my students. Requests made by them, I try to fulfill to the best I can. And all i want is for them to repay me with their attention. Is that so HARD
to ask of? In the end, everyone suffers. I suffer from a bad throat and the students, will not learn anything as i would use up half the period to lecture them. I would leave the class with sadness and anger, and the students, I am sure they are indifferent.
Some teachers have been coming up to me and telling me that my class is terrible. I guess they are indirectly telling me to give up on them. If i do, who will be there to GUIDE
them? I wouldn't want my teachers to give up on me. That is like telling me that I will not perform.
Enough of these downs. There have of course been moments where I enjoy teaching.
Students greeting you with an expression displaying excitement and anticipation gives me the energy to conduct the lesson with enthusiam. There will be students who come up and playfully tell you they love you. And the smile on their faces when they leave your class. All these things really make my day. It somehow fits the reason why I want to be a teacher.
WARNING!!!
Teaching is seriously not for those hot-tempered individuals.

Sometimes you think you know how life works...But things happen, you realise that you have been deceived. Fooled by your own stupidity and foolishness. And my only great weakness is that i am too naive and i tend to trust others whom i think i can get along well with too readily...

Life is like this...
At times like this, you really wish you have anger management classes. How I wish that at times, i can throw things at the students who are constantly making lots of noise. But i know that this is not possible as, i will be putting a death sentence on my career.
Life really sucks at times. This profession really will teach one the art of being patient and anger management. Haiz....

NIE Convocation 29th June 2005
The time for my convocation finally arrived. It was held at the NTU Nanyang Auditorium. A rather grand event as the Minster for Education was present.
i had mixed feelings about attending my convocation. i guess this could be due to my results.
but i was looking forward to seeing my friends who have been with me for four years. i feel so so sad that we have to finally part. i am sure going to miss them all. really glad they have entered my life and made a difference.
Now teachers...make a difference in your students' lives...take care and keep in touch!

Stop being a princess????
Just read this article in the newspaper on how guys think of girls. most feel that we girls want them to treat us like princesses. which i have to admit is true. who doesnt wana be pampered right? however, i beg to differ when the guys indicates that most girls just want to get free rides, meals and presents from them. i m a female. and i have those desire. to be driven around by a guy, to be taken to lovely restaurants or not haveing to worry to pay for me meals, getting gifts like watches, expensive gifts so to say. but i cant! i have given up on all those desires. it seems that i m the guy in my relationship. i seem to be driving khairudin around. always being the one with money. and always getting gifts for him. and also to be there for him both emotionally and financially.
so is it then wrong for me to get upset with him when all i ask from him are not expensive gifts...but precious time?
please do not think that i m complaining or unhappy withmy relationship. but i feel that people, whether it be male or female, are not the same and we should not typecast females as being princesses, or males as lazy. the problems faced by every individuals helps to develop their character. and for me...it helped to develop my patience...

What i have been up to lately...
Hello…havent been blogging coz…let’s just say I m plain lazy. Been busy attending enrichment programmes conducted by NIE for the past weeks. And I must say, I find it hard waking up so early just to reach NIE by 830am. So shitty man. Ok here are somewhat the programmes that I remember attending so far:
1.TAF Club Talk(so so boring, coz I already knew whatever they were telling us)
2.ITE East Simei Campus Visit (kinda interesting)
There is always time for a pic even if it is in a crowded lift...
3.Programme Evaluation and Feedback (such a waste of my precious time)
4.NE talk (boring…but not as boring as the TAF club talk)
5.Visit to Nee Soon Camp (ok lah...had a gd experience, but kinda bummed that I didn’t get to shoot the live fire.)
Went out yesterday with Net, Nad and Siti and her daughter to Suntec and Esplanade. We went window shopping and shopping. And so nice of them to spring me a surprise bday gift. Thank u Net for the diary…seems as if u read my mind that I wanted to get them for myself. Thank u Siti and Nad for the $40 Dorothy Perkins gift vochers, I really really need something like that now since I am so so damn broke. Don’t ask me why. Now I m thinking what I wanna get at Dorothy Perkins…hee. Oh yah, did I mention that I have gift vochers from Giodano ($20) frm Naseer and Topshop ($10) frm Alin. So nice of them huh. Anyway back to my day yesterday.
We had lunch at Polar Café. Nad, Siti n I had fish n chips. Net didn’t order any food coz she already had nasi lemak at home. This Siti so cute. She bought this cake thinking that we will be able to eat them after we have finished with our meals. But we were all so full to even finish up our food. Oh yah, baked oreo cheesecake the day before coz I was inspired by the Hilton Oreo Cheesecake and wanted to eat one with lotsa oreos. And gave them to try it. They said that it was nice…hee…
After lunch, we walked around Suntec and went to Carrefour. I dunno if it was the lunch or this chair I was seating on…but I was feeling very sleeping. And I can tell u that I was about to fall asleep on that chair. To prevent Net n Myself frm getting attached to the chairs we were seating on, we hurried ourselves to Esplanade to eat our Chocolate Fondue!!!
Along the way…being the camerawhores that we were, Net n Me were busy clicking away…hee. So you can say that there were lotsa detours…hee. Hmm…the Chocolate Fondue was really nice…but the service, I dun like. It was really slow. But well, coz the fondue was so so seductively nice…I forgave the service…*singing: I take u to the candy shop…* 
Met khairudin later at night for supper at Bedok Corner. We had BBQ stingray and baby squids. The stingray was really nice…coz the chilli…oh la la…was so so nice…hee. After supper, we headed home…

Tanks 4 da wonderful 6yrs my darling
yesterday was my 6 years anniversary with khairudin. we went to marina square coz he had something planned for me. but when we got there, it seems that the shop he wanted to take me to was nowhere to be found. so we went to cavana to grab a bite. after dat, we roamed around marina square before stumbling upon meritus marina mandarin. we went in and sat at the atrium lounge. the ambience was rather ok i guess. we had the promotional drink, Love Fantasia which was supposed to be their valentines' special. we sat there for about an hour before proceeding for our next destination.
we left marina square and headed towards the esplanade. we strolled past the esplanade, one fullerton, caltex house, the birdie and boat quay before heading towards city hall mrt station. you can say that we made one big round from city hall to raffles place back to city hall again. hee..i was tired, but i had fun.
we decided to play pool at parkway where we were joined by taufiq, zari, aidil, as, acap n madi. left the place at around 11pm. then khairudin n i went to take 31 home and alighted opposite the changi hospital. and guess what...we walked again...hee. it was romantic and fun at the same time. but i was dead tired by the time i reached home. my feet was aching.
oh well, that was how i spent my day....
