School Blues.....

Time really files..sch's starting next week. While i was printing the lec notes just now, i just can't stop thinking how stressful it's going to be. Sch has not even started and the lecturers have already uploaded the notes! Worse! I've not registered all my modules. My electives are not settled. I intend to add another major PE, but i cant add it now. Registration is closed. Appeal again also scared the coordinator hiam..haiz......

Then Mon and Tue i won't be going sch cos there's one project running. I wanted to give all my best one. However it just seems tht i dun have enough air to add..haha. Well, in case u're wondering, yes, my grades are not fantastic. I've gotten grades from 'A' all the way to 'F'. Studying is never my cup of tea. But what to do? We're living in...SINGAPORE...where qualifications are sooooo important. Dun study hard later all the foreigners squeeze me out of my own country how..? tht's super pathetic.

Today is another extremely boring day. I watched a new HK series 唐新风暴之家好月圆in the morning. Then afternoon didn go out, so didn take lunch. I had a short nap after printing my lec notes. Rotting at home used to be my fav past time. But i just dun really enjoy it now. Felt like i'm wasting my life away. Even if i go out, also meet frens to eat, watch movies, go KTV. Not doing any constructive things. Maybe it's time i do some evaluation.

Facilitaing in Red Swastika School (Part 1)

On Mon and Tue, i was at RSS doing some facilitating for the prefects camp. The prefects are all from the pri 4 cohord. Our camp is to make the prefects a better person by instilling in them the values of being a good leader. How did it go, I must say, Praise Lord! It was another successful session.

It was my first time facilitating RSS. So, i didn't know abt the culture of tht sch. FYI, it's a buddhist sch. When we first entered the entrance of the sch, we met a few challenges. First was the parking problem. We were also not allowed to walk ard the sch on our own. So, we had this Mr (something), i've forgotten his name, to escort us ard. I felt like a prisoner, so weird! Then, we started joking, saying 'Hey, u cannot go to the toilet. U need permission and a teacher to bring u there...' and stuffs like tht...lolx. There are too many restrictions and rules. Just like the religion, buddhism itself. Just to clarify, i'm not insulting or making fun of buddhism. I'm only trying to bring out to u the system of the sch. I'm sorry if any buddhist felt offended.

My previous projects are in Ai Tong School. The prefects in RSS have not gone through any trainings before. But i must say, they are comparble to Aitong School. Just tht ATS is more disciplined. Students in RSS are very responsive and participating. The group tht i've taken is the most challenging i've ever had. But, they are a lovable lot of children! They behaved like a real child, very authentic.

On the first day, my group felt so inferior compared to other grps cos they were the last in games. Their morale was really low. They even kept saying negative words like 'we sure lose one la..' etc. But, on the second day, especially at the last part, things got changed for the better. we had this egg challenge. My group built someting like a raft, to cushion two eggs when they were dropped from one storey high. What we had built looked the most awful of all. It's just weaving the straws together. It was even being commented as 'the prata with eggs' haha.. BUT, our eggs landed the most gracefully! Thanks to the big surface area! The eggs landed safely on the ground! Who would think something so ugly could turn out to be the most graceful? My group was thrilled. However, they also didn 'hao lian' saying 'ours is the best, others so lousy!' I could even say, i really admire them! So, God is fair! They started off badly but ended off well! At least, their confidence is restored. Cheerios to them!

The delivery was good. The use of 'The Incredibles' special effects disc was too appropriate and the children just loved watching it! We should give credits to Alvin for able to always come up with these stuffs. Haahha..

We ended the whole thing with a toast. There are champanges. The children were soooo excited that they couldn't stand still! After tht is the ususal, saying the prefects pledge. It was an enjoyable experience agian, i must say. I'm looking forward to next week's projects with the pri 5 kids!

最珍贵的角落

谢谢你灿烂笑容 照亮我的天空
谢谢你分享心情 把握放在你心中
夜里有时为寒冷 你我生根同暖土
友情是最亮的星 我的生命从此美丽
当你被花朵包围尽情欢欣
我带春风使你舞其中
当你正走在坎坷路
我会伴你在左右
一起向蓝天欢呼向白云招手
我们要一起笑一起哭
千万人中有个人懂我
你有最珍贵的角落

Cycling in ECP

Today, i went cycling with irene, wei wei, li juan and jin shun. In the morning, i met up with wei wei and lijuan in Eunos first. We took bus 155 from there and alighted at Victoria School. The bus uncle was so funny. He even asked if he can join us anot. given my pattern, i said "of course!". Then, the uncle did something tht shocked us. He actually took down the bus number board and said tht he's going to chase the passengers out of the bus. We were dumbfounded. In the end, of course the uncle didn follow us. When he drove past us, he even showed us a 'victory' twist. Hahaha...interesting uncle.

So, we walked all the way from VS to the MacDonalds. It was such a long walk. Took us 30 mins. The funniest thing is, we were the first to reach our desginated meeting area! After all the 'adventure' we actually reached earlier then the rest! Lolx..

Cycling was very fun. Can hear Irene shouting all the time when she crash into the bush. The bicycle rental was very worthwhile. 3 hours and a bottled of free drink (fruit tea) for only $6. maybe it's a weekday, tht's why the super 'wu hua' deal..Hahaa..

After cycling, we went to the market opposite Parkway Parade to eat. We wanted to order Char Kuay Teow. But the stall was not open. I'm not sure if it's closed on Fri or they shifted cos their newspaper articles were gone too. Anyone who knows more about it, please tell me. Thanks.
As a result, Irene and I had Yong Tau Fu.

Overall, it's happy spending time with them this afternoon. Hope tht we can have more of such outings again in future!

What a weird day!

Today's my sis' convocation. At the same time i've already arranged to have a dinner with frens to celebrate our Godma's birthday. Yes, CLASH! But, just dunno wat's in tht head of mine. I still wanted to attend both events. Maybe it's my bad habit again, wanting to complete many things within a short period of time.

In the end, things got worse. I was very grouchy the whole day. Well, i admit my temper is not vey good. Shd learn to control. I left earlier to meet my frens. It's not tht i really want to meet or see or eat with them. I just want to pass the present to my Godma when everyone's ard so they can write their wishes too.

I didn do a good job today. I made my parents angry. I quarrelled with my whole family. I was disrespectful to my parents in NTU during the commencement. Naturally, i got scolding from them too. Regretted now, shouldn't have lost my temper. My dad said i changed eversince i converted to be a christian. But he didn't know tht the truth is i changed long ago when he committed tht mistake. Didn say it out right in his face cos i couldn't get the chance. In retrospect, it's a good thing i didn throw those words out.

I don't like myself. Cos i can't control my emotions esp when it comes to facing family members. I dun wan to hurt them, but the things i did just upset them. I wanted to patch things up yet it turned out tht i've worsen it. It's my fault but i hav the ability to make them apologise to me. And guess what. I dun accept their apologies. I'm a weird person. I dun act according to my feelings. I'm so mean to my family. Maybe i shd just hide alone in a cave.
