Observations... 1 down, 4 more to go...

My sup came to the school today to observe my lesson... It is quite sad because the class she chose to observe is one of the more notorious case under my care... It is very difficult to teach that class... I really want to say how notorious the class is, challenging authority, disruptive and more... But i cannot divulge too much information in case my blog get stumbled upon and i will get sued... Haha~

But my sup said that the lesson was not too bad lah... she had some questions like why i am not strict enough on them but what i told her... "No use..." Hahahaa! She gave me some great ideas when teaching and i realised that i'm considered to be really lousy in teaching... Need to put more thoughts into my lesson plan!!

As for why 4 more to go? My CT haven observe me yet... So i still have 4 more formal observations... hopefully it will not go as bad as this one... Anyway, this teaching practice is only a pass or fail grade... if you can plan and execute and can manage the class, confirm pass already...

I'm only worried about the 10 week's teaching practice.... that one sure die coz got grades... Hiaz... Ok lah, tired liaoz...

Jiayou ppl~ 2.5 more weeks to go~!

Forgot to Post...

Kelong trip was FUN~!

My aunty and uncle were such good sport~! No complaints about sleeping area, cleaniness, food, temperature of bathing water and gross-ness of baiting! No complaints at all (i think?) Hahahaa!!

Altogether, we caught over 300 fishes and 5 sotongs! those 300 fishes were quite small but still tasty... But we lost many hooks, sinkers and baits... So sad... Not pro enough lah~

Hopefully the nov/dec trip will be more fruitful~!

Fishy Fishy Fishy~!

Plus, after conducting the lesson, i still got to do my reflection for them! No template to follow! Super Hiazzzzz.....

Next week onwards, no more naruto liao lorz... Nik's very supportive too! He will pick me up from school and send me there whenever he can... But he ar... always ask me... "You got alot of work meh? What work you've got to do? LP very easy one mah..." He just doesn't understand the amount of work we have to do... Aiyoh...

TP starting soon...

Teaching practice is starting soon... this coming monday to be exact... I'm posted to a high achievement neighbourhood school and i'll be going in the afternoon session... I really wonder if all the good things i heard about the school is true... only one way to find out~! Go there and experience it...

I only heard about my confirmed posting yesterday afternoon... apparently, they couldn't decide which session to post me to... haha! I didn't even have to attend any meetings prior to school reopening! i guess they were very busy with the H1N1 virus thing and the 7-day leave of absence thing...

Anyway, the news stated that if you returned from affected countries on or after 22nd of july, you are required to stay home for 7 days before returning to school... The list of affected areas are Australia, Argentina, Canada, Chile, Dominican Republic, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Panama, Philippines, Spain, Thailand, United Kingdom and United States of America.

When i saw the news, i was worried... coz i was in malaysia and i didn't know if msia is one of the affected countries... They sent out the news, but there was no mention of the countries involved... luckily, our teacher's portal has the announcement too... and they mentioned the countries...

SO.... I was not from an affected country, and therefore, i am starting school on time! 12.30pm...

No more SIMS... No more Criminal Minds... Here come Unit Plans, Reflections, Lesson Plans and more...

So little things happened since...

Been trying really hard to go exercise... Suppose to play badminton for the past week but the courts around our area are under some kind of renovation and the CC's one is always booked... And nik has been sleeping in... even now he is still sleeping... was supposed to play at 2pm... hahaa!

Was supposed to go on this learning overseas trip with uncle gary to learn how to take charge of these types of trips... however, because of my upcoming teaching practice, i'm unable to go~ Which is sad of course... even though the pay is very little, about $50 a day, but its the experience that counts... pluz, food and accomodation are included~! Beka and Andy went... Port Dickson Eagle Ranch~ Should be quite cool ba~!

Met up with augustine from Fishingaffairs.com and learnt quite a lot from him. He was helping us prepare the equipments required for our kelong trip and we spent another 50 bucks at the tackle shop... Next time need to organise fishing events, he is the guy to go to!

Our kelong trip is from 22nd june to the 24th june... Best part? I'm supposed to keep that week free to attend meetings (if there are) at the school i'm posted to... totally lost track of the days man! But the trip's already booked, so i can't do anything about that... i can only hope that the meetings are scheduled on thurs or friday lor~ :)

3rd Kelong Trip! This time, more prepared~

Sims 3

Recently installed The Sims 3 and i've been playing it ever since... Almost 10 hours of Sims per day! This is super unhealthy man!

  • From creating the Sim character, to moving into a new home...
  • From buying new furnitures to remodelling the house...
  • From working 5 days a week to getting promoted and now working only 3 days a week...
  • From friendly introduction, to holding hands, to kissing, to making out, to massaging, to WooHoo-ing and trying for a baby...
  • From making new friends, to getting married and having a baby...
  • Now? In the process of juggling 3 characters and making sure that their needs are met!
ADDICTIVE is the word for games like this... However, there will be a point where i decided i have enough and have to stop! SAVE and QUIT~ There's too many ppl to handle, too many needs met.. I think the next SIMS game really needs a "task action reposition function" where i can shift the queued actions around so that i do not have to cancel everything and requeuing them again! Its really irritating!!

Now that i have recovered my strength, it's time to continue with the sims! Hahaa!!

Hope i get a chance to WooHoo in other places...

Gatherings.... Finally some socialising!

Met up with some secondary school friends today! Jeetha and Edwin~! Edwin came to singapore for a short holiday and to help his sister move house, so we took the opportunity to meet up! We went to jeetha's dad's restaurant at novena called Fiesta Brasilia...

This restaurant was the first brazilian restaurant in singapore originally located at sixth avenue, but now, it is relocated to United Square at Novena... Its a humble little restaurant with brazilian staffs and chefs~ nearing closing time, the staffs will start playing their brazilian music~! Really cool atmosphere... Buffet, $38++~! Okay, enough with the publicity~!

We really had a great time, talking about the old days, our current "affairs", the gap between then and now... Almost forgot to take pictures for remembrance~! Haha! I tried to upload the photos here, but somehow, it is not showing... nevermind ba~! next time then~!

To Buona Vsta!! The school that closed down for private development...
