Here I come again.....

Feeling utterly bored on a Sat!
Woke up at 9am (instead of 7am to do my run) coz I was so tired last night. The Barker's run compounded by little sleep the previous night due to Ed Psych essay enabled me to sleep so soundly till this morning! :)

That Jonana not available for our long awaited high-tea session and I have the afternoon free. Waiting for the ODACians next move in their RITE so I can meet them for a short while. Meanwhile, I'm 'buah long longing' at home. This is crazy lor.....I think after all the hoo ha over my assignments in the last few weeks my whole system has to re-adjust to the 'more relaxed' mode. Haha...can relax now but don't know how to! So silly and bizzare!
It always happens. When I'm free and want to meet up with people, somehow these people are not free! Then when they ask me out, I'm not available. Timing usually this salah parking lor. And I want to have time alone, people will also ask me out! But when I don't want to be alone (like now!) i don't know who's free and wat to do!. gosh....

Anyhow, thank God for the avenue to blog! Haha..at least there's something for me to wild my time away and its purposeful. So I will update on the Barker's run yesterday evening. And because of the run, I had to miss BYO which I'm sure was great fun! Nonetheless, I had fun with my team during the run too.

The run was just 600m (middle distance) and I am not a sprinter or middle distance runner. So it was extremely painful to chiong. Well its not possible to sprint the whole 600m lah but it requires longer stride and more speed as compared to long distance run..DUH! So not quite used to it but I still went for it. Always good to try out different things and learn more. Such training in future would benefit me when I do my long distance runs.

The team of wild horses with Mr C. Kunalan - our very homegrown sprinter.

Always an inspiration and role model :)

The few of us goofing around after our run.

As usual. A bunch of posers

We won the Men Doubles event with Kenny-ball and Kok Soon leading the pack! coolios lor!
Forfeited the Women Doubles coz I was the only gal representing the class (what's new!) but highly unlikely we will win even if we take part ..haha
Then for the team's event comprising Wilfred, Gideon, Yu Chze and myself, we didn't come in Top 3 but still ran our best. Proud of each and everyone of us!

Barker's Run marks the last of the Inter-class events for this semester. Quite relieved coz that means less weekdays evening taken up by the games haha and I can do my other things. But that means I have to keep engaging myself in other physical activities to keep my 'engine' running. Yah means serious last minute training for the 2008 marathon man. Its the time of the year again.

Tis a season to be ACTIVE!!!

okie dokie..that irritating Jonana suddenly can meet now. So off I am to meet my bestie!

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...
