Fun Night












The long awaited night cycling with Jasmine and Abigail finally came! The weather that night was perfect. After the afternoon showers, the night was cool and not humid unlike the first night cycling I had. It was truly a night to remember - our gungho-ness to venture into unchartered territories, the wackiness (in order to keep us all awake), the food (errr...not alot tho') but above all, it was the company! Hehe...though we were totally whacked out after almost 10hrs of cycling and clocking an approximate total distance of 40km++, I totally enjoyed myself! It was indeed an achievement for the 3 of us as we covered most of the connectors in the east, allowing us to travel from ECP to changi beach, then pasir ris, then bedok reservoir, bedok and finally fort rd back to ECP.

No regrets. Want to do it again, maybe longer & farther the next time? OF COURSE! WHY NOT????!!!

We were quite glad that we managed to connect to our 3rd connector of the night, but was in for a surprise later. Realised that it was not like what it was described in the map, but on hindsight, maybe we did overlook some finer details but we still managed to find our way out! Smarty gals

We were at this amphitheatre at the supposedly Tampines Park Connector. Well well, maybe the error wasn't that bad after all as we got to take a shot at this place!

Who's the happiest of them all????





Hehe...found this shot hilarious. With the calefare of the bicycle's handle and the orange thingy which was Jas's bible, used to add as a platform to put the camera in order to take the shot. Quite artistic ay...





Looking forward to the next night cycling trip...possibly the western or southern part of Singapore!

Breather

Back from a Sec 3 level camp in JB, Tanjung Piai. Thought I could have the week's off to clear my brain's cache and prepare my lesson plans but alas...I'm down for ODAC camp and sec 4s' oral exam mock practice! When can I have my breather???? Sometimes I wonder whether returning to a familiar place is good for me after all. I'm like on the 'Wanted' list for this committee, that committee, this event, that event etc. Not that I'm popular or high-in-demand, its just that I'm nicely available. I'm not usually mindful of taking on responsibilities. Its just that during these 10 weeks, I reckon is a crucial component of my NIE understudy and I am not wanting to settle for something less in my planning (although i really hate lesson plannings!). But I'm so stretched! I feel like screaming: " GIVE ME MY SPACE!" To say the least, I'm feeling stressed. Most unfortunately, I'm not given the option to say 'No'. Not until I get ...

ACTION 100%

I finally can take a breather and bloggie! I just can't believe that my 2 weeks of the 10weeks practicum have just passed! But of course, its just ACTION this entire week since I started teaching. My gosh....if anyone desires for time to pass quickly JOIN TEACHING! Having not taught for the last 1.5years, getting back to the routine sure took some adjustment. Physically, I crashed by 10pm every night. Last night, 8.45pm! Record set. Just last week I was thinking its ultra boring to just shadow my CTs and not teach....I basically didn't know what I was asking for then. Mornings start with the mad rush of preparing for PE lessons and its just been taxing on my brain! After PE, I feel as though I've ran a marathon. I just slump on my chair and let the cool air from the air-con bring me back to life. When school ends, I just have little energy left to do my own trainings! OH ...btw I cycle to and fro school so....its zero level at the end of the day. Joani said this to me befor...

Day 3 & 4 - Halong Bay

HALONG BAY Cat Ba Island (2 days, 1 night) After 1 day of exploration of Hanoi city, we headed for Halong Bay via the junkboat. Our destination was on Cat Ba Island where we stayed for the night. It was also there that we ventured onto 'Monkey' Island - not to be deceived; there was only 4 monkeys sighted. The exhilirating part of this journey was the motorbike ride to the ferry terminal to board the boat to 'Monkey' Island. Felt like I was part of a short scene of a James Bond movie (pillion with Pierce Brosnan!). Will never forget the cold draft blowing against my face and just riding up and down the slopes! Cat Ba Island is a very quiet & tranquail place. Little activity especially at night. Wanted to catch the morning activities at the fishing wharf opposite our hotel but could not wake up in time. Nonetheless, managed to capture some snippets of what goes on at the bay. Waiting patiently to board the boat. Snapped this on board the boat. Not a vietnamese but fe...
