It's been a while since my last post because I have been very busy with work in school and visiting during CNY. I finally get a break for the next 2 days just to breathe...
To all those who've been checking my blog regularly, real sorry to disappoint you. I will try my best to update on the latest news!
GOING BACK TO LIANHUA PS =)Woo hoo! Yep, I will be coming back to LPS on the 25/2 for my teaching practice to share more interesting lessons with the students and hopefully learn from them as well. Hope that answers your question/tag, Jerry =)
Really looking forward to seeing all my friends at LPS again. Since my last visit on Teacher's Day, I hope everyone is doing fine. It's too bad that I won't get a chance to see 6Diamond 07 but I know that you guys will come back to visit the school right?
This time round, I will be coming back with Mrs Joyce Tan and Mr Tang Chee Weng. Although I will only be there until early May, hopefully I will be back for good after completing my course in June. I am curious to see how my 4 Amethyst class members are doing in Primary 5. Not too tough, I hope?
CNY I II III
IIII IIIII(my version of the fai cai bamboo!)Happy New Year to all my friends!
Not much of a holiday. Spent the most of the time visiting relatives on my wife's side. As I'm not too familiar with them, it was mostly just smiling and nodding while my mother-in-law chit-chats with her 'generation'. Managed to indulge in some friendly wagering with a few rounds of "dry swimming". Many opportunities to eat
yusheng but as my friends would know, I don't touch the raw fish. Funny, right?
My MIL remarked the other day that this CNY is quite quiet. Perhaps with all the rise in prices, no one is in a real good mood to celebrate? I remember everyone thinking that with the economy booming at the end of 2007, we could look forward to a good 2008. Oh well, we all have to deal with the inflation. I'm just not comfortable with the food prices going up by so much. For example, dim sum that used to cost $2.20 a basket, now costs $2.70! Although I sympathise with the hawkers who have rising costs due to the increased prices of ingredients like flour, I really wonder if they will return to lower prices when the supply of these ingredients become readily available. Therein lies the reason for not my being not that sympathetic. So less dim sum for me then!
Looking forward to school today as there will be a bookfair with lots of good books on sale! Will share my purchases here later today.
