the previous was nothing but settlers and more settlers with hong xing gang! i'm loving it! haha.. and on sat, banquet hosting chinese dinner. and smart me totally screwed up the 2 tables.. hahaa... but luckily the ppl are nice, and they quite like me.. so they didnt say anything to my "cartoon" service... i made a round mark on their table cos i opened the soup cover and placed it on the table. i couldnt make the ice fall out of the jug when the guy said he wanted ice. he asked for a glass of ice instead. lol. my hand was too short to reach the middle of te table, so i made some space for myself, and stood all the way in and stretch my furthest jus to place the dish in the middle of the table. i couldnt portion the noodles properly and the strands of noodles keep getting stuck in the 2 spoons. hahahhaaa.... but after doing all these, the ppl at the 2 tables still smile and at me and ask me to take my time. wat nice ppl i met. =)

and i met a cute guy! actually leon has been working there for quite some time le... jus that i didnt quite notice him for the past few functions i've worked. he's really chatty too! he'd become my eye candy at work liao. hua chi!!! hahahhaa...

nie foc - success!
well, or at least it was ok for me and baoling for our station at the carpark. but 2 of our hong xing members were bullied. hai.. dun worry! u still have hong xing! dun bother about the rest!




had been quite moody these few days. if not for foc and band to keep my mind occupied, i'd have stoned to death.

are you sure u treated me as your friend? where were you during the time you were attached? you spent time only with 1 person, and that's your gf. and wat makes u think that i'll entertain you now after what you did to me the last time round? wat makes you think that i'll be willing to be your life bouy, to always be there during some gf transition period of yours?

i've had enough. i want you out of my life.

oh ya, other than school experience, i also went to work for world music project for 2 days for national band competition. heard a few bands here and there when i managed to sneak up to take a peak. quite an experience i have to say. and this coming sat, it's back to banquet!

went swimming quite a few times with baoling. she became my swimming kaki liao man. haha.. tmr i'm going swimming with her again! yippee! haha

i also went to meet up with sal sal the other day with zhusiling. she nv change! miss the ol' llama... miss those days.. tk days again.. bought her a bag with zhusiling. it's as a super belated birthday prezzie for her! hope she's happie. shall make the effor to meet up more often.

didnt managed to meet up with the gang to celebrate my birthday. so sad. everybody is so busy, including myself. no one's schedule can squeeze out a common day for dinner. next week is going to be 2 weeks of foc for me. no time for dinner man. but thanx guys for the n.u.m. bag man. it's nice! so now i have a lovely bag and a lovely jacket to go with. =) i'm a happie gal. haha...

went to ktv with youwei, mimi, congzhi, and huixian last night. we sang from 7 plus all the way to 5 plus in the morning. got chased away cos the smoke was simply too thick to breathe in. we felt that we could get instant lung cancer, and it made us smell like we are smokers. so disgusting. i sing until i k.o. and mimi and huixian got sorethroat, so couldnt really sing. still, they sang much better den me even with a sorethroat man. salute!!

this morning went back to hall from catching the first train. saw a bustling boonlay interchange, filled with students in uniform and other ppl on their way to work. it made me feel i'm waking up to go to school too. but nah... i'm on my way back to la la land.. haha...

recently hooked onto settlers cafe. it's a really nice place to hang out in. with all the different board games and all, free flow of coke or ice lemon tea, play from 2 to 6, jus for 6 bucks! where else can u find such deal? went there again this afternoon. had lots of laugh. it really cheered me up. =) i'm back to my carefree days!

i know there're still certain things on my mind. i just hope that they don't come true. i'm not thinking about it. jus let time show it all.





with a smile
the world is a better place.

with my smile
my life is a better life.

well... not that i didnt wanna blog last week.. it's jus that i was simply too tired, too much to blog. too many things happened, and i'm glad to recall about having a fabulous week.

firstly, school experience in tkss. 1 word -- nostalgic. the feeling is simply too nostalgic, too homely. i've never recalled having a better school experience than the one at tk. i went back home. back to the place i belong 8 yrs ago, a place i first stepped into when i was only 13. all the teachers, the canteen vendors, the friends. i always loved my stay in tk in my secondary school years. it's a pleasant stay. a nice school to be in. i had a fantastic cca to constantly keep me occupied, and always giving me a chance to be part of the big tkband family to bring glory to the school. i had dedicated teachers who stayed by me throughout my darkest moments in my studies, who are willing to go the extra mile to make sure i do fine. i had wonderful friends who stayed by my side, as we go through thick and thin, whom we are still friends till now. i love tk.

going back as a trainee teacher had definitely given me an entire different perspective of the school. school politics, teachers backstabbing each other, busy admin work, principals being superficial by judging only results and nothing else... it's all part and parcel of a working world. jus that i didnt realise it in the past. i only had to mend my studies well, and make sure i repay my teachers by doing well in exams. i never had to bother about teachers and their life. but now, i seriously have to consider the fact that teacher is definitely not an easy job to take up. it's not as beautiful as i thought it is. it's jus another working environment, filled with politics just like any other company.

however, not everything is bad. i saw the teachers that once taught me, my dnt teacher who is now the vp of the school, my always loving math teacher miss tan (still as cok as ever, and as pok-a-ble as ever), and not to forget, my horn juniors. =) saw them around in school.. so nice.. also, i had lots of learning points. observed mr tan and miss tan's lesson, and some other teachers' too. i gotta say i learned quite abit from the conversations i had with mr tan and miss tan. they helped me alot in understanding the school's life, and the role of a teacher. from lesson plans to handling students. i gotta say it's not easy.

also gotta thanx david for being a good company through my 1 week at tk! without him, i'll be so bored.. made new friends there too... all the other trainee teachers from the other programmes... hahhaa... a whole big family...

and thx ar mr koh... i say wanna come back to use the dnt room.. den he say he wanna charge me 20 bucks.. haha.. but he say he'll charge zhusiling 50 bucks.. whahahaha.. gossip with mr juffri too... miss those days... dnt rocks! took a few acrylic pieces too (as usual). haha... we always take acrylic pieces when we wanna deco our table.. lol.. since they have not much use for it anyway...

that's all for my school experience. enough of heels and teacher-y wear. i'm back to tee and shorts with slippers!

whee~

overwrought.

moodymoodymoody......

my favourite white top that i jus bought (it's ex), which i worn only once, which i need it badly for school experience this week, is stained!!!!!



and it's quite badly stained... brown patches... oh man... i feel like killing myself...



this staint is quite hard to remove.. after soaking it in bleach for 1 while day and night, it's still there..... grrrr... ahhhhh...... arghhh...... hmphhhh......




and i'm already veri broke... so broke that i have to live off whatever i have in my wallet (which is less than 20 bucks) to last me till wed... i know it's in 2 days time... but i still gotta spend $$ to buy more tops... cos i'm only left with 2.... and how am i supposed to reuse 2 tops for 5 days?? ok.. i shall stop complaining here... sigh...

or maybe i'm jus in one of my moody days, where little things that go wrong can make me super upset kind... dunno y i so affected also... sigh.... jus plain sad lah....




moody......

it's been such a long time since i last blogged.
it's been almost 2 weeks...

firstly, on the 29th june, the committee celebrated my birthday after the comms meeting. thanx guys! i love the adidas jacket! and on 1st july, i went to the stadium with the sq ones to see the syf outdoor comp!

TK BAND clinched BEST DISPLAY BAND for the 5th time!

yes. that makes 10 yrs in a row! =)





30th, 1st and 2nd was band camp... so i was totally tired out... i felt my lips could fall off, and everything i play next would come out flat...





plus i had school experience on the 4th to 7th in st anthony canossian pri... the school is good, and the girls are very disciplined. and i'm starting to miss them already! it's a chatolic school... so they will read a verse of prayer, and sing a song in the morning before national anthem... and when they thank the teachers, they thank "thank you miss lee! may god bless you everyday!" hahaa.... quite new to that... then on friday, they had feast day... where they attend more than an hr of mass... i fell asleep.. soorie to say... ooops... =Pi'm jus not used to sitting there for an hour and see them sing song and say amen over a hundred times. maybe cos i'm jus not a christian nor catholic... but i respect their religion and beliefs. i found it quite interesting at how they celebrate feast day though...

out of a class of 37 students, the ones that caught my attention are none other than my fav shiya, as she always managed to turn around, stare at me for a moment, and flash me her biggest smile. =) and there is michelle, the class leader whom i tink is a very independant girl, 1 who the class can rely on. and jeraldine, the girl who sat in front of me. she's simply veri cute. and genevieve, the one who sat beside me, a smart girl who is very guai and does her work the right way. and lastly, maxine, the girl who is always assisiting shiya in being the group leader. i miss all of them! and in that class, i came across quite a few names... like... danielle and noelle... i didnt know that guys name like daniel and noel can be converted to girls' name... haha...

and the vp... whom i tink looks veri friendly the first time i saw her, who later chat with us on our second last day, and confirm our thoughts of her being a really friend lady. haha.. she's really nice... i wish i have such vp the next time i go practicum again...

and my mentor... she's nice too... i have to thank her for always guiding me along, and giving me a copy of her lesson plan, and photocopied pages of the text that she will be using... and a class list so that i am farmiliar with the class... without her, i'll be completely lost in school...

and of cos, our coordinator, mrs gomez. she's also a veri nice person... showing us around the school, and telling us more about about the school and stuff like that...

i miss SAC pri already...

and now i can only hope of better days at tk tmr... 1 more week of school experience... it's gonna be over soon!




than next up will soon be FOC... and school will start again... a sucky timetable... and a madness combination of 8 modules (not including GESL). now i really wish to hear "may god bless me everyday" man.... hahahhaa... since percussion is jus going there to play for 2 hrs, i hope it wun be too much of an obstructions ba... =) and besides, i have baoling with me!! hahaha... i tink percussion is going to be fun!! cant wait...

been going swimming with baoling these days... haha... twice in a week liao... it's fun ok? haha.. and plus all the sia suay things we do whenever we're at the pool... omg... no one will believe we're 20.. hahaha...




went to njc concert last night... it's a good concert i would say... when can i ever play like that? hahaha... guess i need much more practice... freshies are coming in... cannot throw face!!! practice!!!




i've changed my wall paper. no longer clinging on to the past. i'm finally moving on. it's a great thing to begin with. and i'm going to be nothing but a happier girl from now on...




jus smile...
look into the mirror and smile...
