3Rs.

The semester is officially over.
It is not particularly a hectic term yet I felt it has been going on for a long time.
It ended with my last exam in NIE and when I begin the next semester, which is also my last, it will only be for 6 weeks before I head out to school for formal teaching. With this in mind, and as I look back, time did fly! But I must say it has been fruitful.

My relationships/friendships have been deepened and that means more to me than anything else. I LOVE MY CLASS! Awwwww....

In 48 hours, I will be off for my long-awaited break in Aussie. Well well...its finally going to happen but not without its obstacles, even till this moment. First was Liling's boo boo about when her SS module end and now Leslie's toe! Anyhow, I remember Peace's prayer on sat that God knows my heart's desire and how this trip is important to me and He knows. Just now, I was pondering on the various hiccups that came along and was quite disheartened. Yet an assurance came about that All Will be Fine. :) Thanks!

Its now time to rest. Be refreshed and renewed again for a new season.

Restless I have been for a while. A longing for a change. A longing for something new. However, in my haste to get there I got lost. And feeling stranded suddenly. Not sure where I should be heading towards now. Yet I know I'm to be at somewhere, somehow.

Without fail, being away for a while clears my head and perspectives will change. I want that. And I know when I return, I'm enroute to the place of Restedness, Refreshment and Renewal.

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...
