Goodbyes are tough!

The moment I dread is drawing near.
Having to say bye bye to my crazy pals. Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh........

Its such an irritating feeling, so much so that I don't even know how to go about describing it!! The thought of not seeing them in school sometimes would make me tear but then again, I would control myself coz I know its not like goodbye forever and ever. But but but...aiyah I hate to say goodbyes. Sadly, they are part and parcel of life. Nothing I can do about it.

Still I am glad to have all the wacky memories with me. Not sure if I will frequent Hot Spot as often as I used to when those 2 maddies are gone but I'm sure I will break into giggles whenever I walk past our favourite areas.No doubt, the Hot Spot will be so much more quieter without us around :)
Whenever I patronize the Malay food stall, I will also think of them coz its like our favourite.
Hmm..wonder if I would miss fish-souping & yogurting at JP??? :)

Being emo? Maybe lah but I know I can get quite sentimental at times and that means they are things/people whom I value alot. Oh welllzzzzzzzzz....new season for all of us and as much as I wish things can remain status quo, I know its not the way. So face it Gracie and move on!

We started off well and I hope this beautiful friendship will continue to blossom!

Wishing my 2 dearest NIE pals well and that they will have an unforgettably fruitful season of teaching :)

For me...I will embark on finding other soul-mates but think its not going to be easy to replace that 2 women! After all, such explosive dynamics between friends is a 1 in a million thing and not everyone gets to enjoy it!

I am the blessed one!

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...

Perspective

Sitting down in front of the computer and listening to 'All The Earth' for the 10th time. Its Anais's off day and we have been trying to upload our pictures onto Facebook. I've got my Day 1 up but poor Ana, still trying to get hers up! Have been in Cambodia for 5 days and returning to Singapore on thursday. Previously, time seem to snail by but as I browsed through the pictures taken of the past few days, I realised that its not that slow after all. Coming to Cambodia this time was different. Was supposed to lead a team to LIA but ended up not because of lack of preparation time and inadequate response. Anyhow, I just felt I should make a personal trip up to see for myself the work at LIA and sense what God is doing in this land. Prior to the trip, I've been reading about Cambodia's news and they just appear everyday in the papers. Well it can't be more clear than this so I went. Followed Anais as she goes to and fro the b oys' & girls' home to t...

ONLY BY GRACE
