Crazy women of the world unite!!!!!

*Drums roll*...."Please welcome the Dynamic Threesome of NIE : Joani (Crazy Woman 0.5), Aidah (Crazy Woman 0.9) and Grace (Crazy Woman 0.7)". Why the '0.something'? Don't know that's why we are crazy!!!???? Hahaha

Joani the crazy shopaholic

Aida looking scholarly BUT it was just that day!

She's the VAINEST pot out of the group!

Don't we look good together!? So far, I'm the best in being able to capture all 3 of us nicely in 1 frame. The other 2...erm more practice needed lah! :) But yes our favourite pastime together is TAKE PICTURES of ourselves!

I've been wanting to blog about these 2 whackos I've met during this semester in NIE. They are my GESL mates. No one could have guess we would become such close friends in just 4 months! And we don't see each other apart from GESL meetings. Both are geographers, while I'm the fit one. Hmmm..but they are also quite fit (i'm fitter!). One does Muay Thai, the other hockey & taekwando! Its no wonder we are the Dynamic Threesome. Mess with any one of us, you will be guarenteed to see stars and all the other galaxies in the Milky Way! Scary? NO lah...beneath our 'chor-lor-ness', we are actually very gentle and amiable. We bring much joy to those around us. But most of the time, I think I provide more entertainment :).

The 3 of us are scarily different yet similar at the same time. How is that ever possible? I also cannot explain but we have this chemistry between us. We just can gel together. The 3 of us are very outspoken and aggressive (when need to) but somehow, we know how to accomodate one another without compromising on our own standards or opinions. There are also stark differences in our hobbies - Joani is a shopaholic, Aida is a glutton, me the balanced one but we can still hang out well together. Its amazing!

My life in NIE is so much more exciting and memorable having known them. Our favourite spot is in the NIE Lib (Hot Spot Cafe); yes and when we have nothing else better to do, we just sit there, drink Cafe Mocha and talk about really random things. We also take pictures of ourselves. Same postions and same location! Haha

On a more serious note, I thank God for the 2 of them. I will so miss them when they go off for their practicuum in Feb next year. Then I'll be the only 1 in NIE :(. Nevertheless, I believe our friendship will go beyond our NIE season. We love each other very much so we will make time for one another! Hehehe...btw the 3 of us are very very 'straight'!!!!!! Just CRAZY that's all.

Universal Studio

Thanks to YOG I got to enter Universal Studios @ Resorts World Sentosa ytd for free! Yes...rides were free and I had a $10 food & beverage voucher. Ok....sometimes I'm grateful that I'm a teacher because we are really one of the few professions who will enjoy such privileges :) Introducing the bevy of gorgeous ladies of Pei Hwa Sec : Miss Grace Tan, Miss Sophia Tan, Miss Shirley Tan and Miss Roslinda ! Don't you love the donkey ears???!!! WE WERE SERIOUSLY AMUSING OURSELVES IN THE SOUVENIR SHOP! Alright...this is the first but not my last time visiting U.S.S because I'll be going there again in Nov for my dept's learning journey. Don't ask me how we are going to think up PE lessons from visiting the theme park but miracles do happen! So after loosening the leash around the 51 kids whom we accompanied yesterday evening, the 6 female teachers (where are all the men??? tsk tsk...) went about to have a wild time of feasting on 20" pizzas, running after cart...

SHAKING OFF THE DUST

Its been a long hiatus :) So many things have taken place and so many reflections to document but the inertia to do it was just to great to resist. Anyhow, decided to take some time during this break to start the 'blogging engine' going again. Hopefully, it revives my hope and wish to keep this site alive. Just had the annual ODAC camp @ Ubin and while trekking around the island with the kiddies yesterday, I chanced upon this little grasshopper at the Sensory Trail. I managed to get up close and personal for this shot, which was taken with my new iPhone 7 ahem. Image was sharp and it looked great! And the verse that came to mind was: "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?....Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." - Matthew 6: 26-34 In my rest...

Count your blessings

I bought this set of keychain for my gramps. So cute right? They both love it to bits man! Haha..I'm proud of myself. A wise person said this to me this morning: "when you count your blessings, you will find many things to be thankful for...". True true. Been rather short fused these days and especially with family members. My grandma bore the brunt of it on monday when she suddenly appeared at NCC with my grandpa. I wasn't expecting her and so when I saw her, I was quite mean to ask why she was there when I actually know her intentions. I felt the way I felt because firstly I was already bothered about how to take care of grandpop when he sighs and worries about his discomfort and blah and then grandmop comes along and be herself (complain complain and ask same questions 1001 times etc). Double whammy! Anyway in a nutshell, the wise person told me early in the morning that grandmop upset that I brushed her aside that day, which I know was baddie bad bad :( ok i will...

ONLY BY GRACE
