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...

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...
