scolded my tech class today. not for the naughty ones. they are the ones listening. but the hardworking ones. for doing MATHS in my SOCIAL STUDIES class today. yesh i know social studies is not an examinable subject but that does NOT give you the right to do maths in my social studies. gave them a quiz on the previous chapter and surprise surprise, the naughty noisy not so smart students did much better than those "guai" better behaved ones. why? because they listened. and then i lectured 2E3 today. because the boys were making weird sounds throughout the class. the girls were irritated la. and i think they were happy when i started to lecture the boys because i could see some of them smiling. heh. think they wanted to listen la. hahaha. feel like talking to ms ng about yong yu cos he kept disturbing the girl behind her, and the girl was definitely feeling very awkward and out of place. yeah maybe i should cos this is not the first day (eh actually the second time since this is the second week..) i've seen him doing that. yeah.

teachers are all very tired already. heard one in the staff room saying today "i'm already looking forward to good friday, and this is only the second week." no surprises i guess. after working for almost two weeks, i'm starting to tire too. yun shin and i live to look forward to the weekend while daniel seems to have boundless energy. good. he can go set the papers and worksheets then. he seems so enthu about the mock midyear that we're going to give. thankfully he's setting. grin. abit unfair la, but when he saw my table today, he was like "$65 a day is definitely not worth it la." he thinks that the combination is too heavy, plus the number of classes and the midyear paper. according to him, he wont have taken it. but i like what im doing now la so im fine with it.. cant help it if i like to be kept occupied like that right? just that it does get abit tiring.. esp when the work keeps coming in and i dont find the time to sit down to mark the worksheets.. it's the geo worksheets that i cant seem to clear. and i have to set 3 geo tests for the my classes by next week. plus i havent finished marking the compres yet and the functional writing is going to come in next week so here goes man. but i still seek a balance between work, com serve and my social life. grin. at least i try to.

realised it's interesting to send people quizes about themselves, or myself. like i just sent out one just yesterday and got several replies. think i've gotten replies from ruoling, sam, huiru and wenhui. ruoling's one was the most accurate of all.
according to ruoling,
my middle name is "i like to read"
fav thing to do outdoors: play BRIDGE!!! eh ruoling and people, when are we having a bridge/mahjong session soon ah?
nickname for me: cookie. i'm the colour of a well baked cookie (not burnt), i'm a pretty tough cookie, and i'm as sweet as one either. (to be honest, i never thought of that. grin.)
am i loud or quiet: "Wah. tough one... you can be real quiet on your moody days or your angry days... but generally you're friendly and thus would talk to people"
am i smart or stupid: "95% smart, 5% stupid. stupid when it comes to stubborness on certain things which i can no longer remember" (yeah i agree im stupid when i start being stubborn. hee. so paiseh.)
what's the worst things of me: my mood swings.. (so sorry ruoling.. )
A feature that you like about me as a person: Your frankness.

yeah.. things that are extremely accurate and i agree. grin.
and next i saw roo's one.. and sam's and wenhui. oei wenhui, my hair colour is still copper brown. still the same one as prom, unlike somebody who dyed it "white" for the fun of it and ended up like an albino. "P and stop emphasing that i am black. yesh i know i AM chaodar. grin. at least you dint use the word bitumen on me again.
and amusingly everybody thinks my fave activity outdoors is comn service, and i am athletic. maybe it should be like what ruoling put it to be, i am but i choose not to be. hahaha. still waiting for replies from other people. and eileen dear, while you send me a blank one for me to fill in, please fill in for me as well la. hee.

so happy that the class blog is active once more. maybe because the guys are back and have more interesting things to add to aside from work work and work. as usual dewen was being his lame self. but to be real honest, i do miss his lame jokes. just check out our class blog la. 02s33 grin. the usual lame us. i miss the class. plenty. havent seen them ever since the open houses. i sure hope i get to see them on the 8th after my meeting at NCSS. whee. i got invited to be in the committee for post camp project which consists of approx 7-8 camp members =) feeling so honoured. wonder how many of the blue group people were invited. last checked with daphne she wasnt, and that was before soon tien called me to tell me not to check with the rest cos they dont want tongues to wag. yeah. but i cant keep the news to myself any longer. so excited. grin. one little step more to contributing that much to society. to be a part of NCSS. really feel so honoured. whee. but then again, i wonder how long the meeting will take. i do wanna meet up with the 36 people cos i havent seen them for such a long time. except for yuan la, when i met her for lunch last friday. grin.
