Not 100% yet as the throat still feels congested and I have some ulcers in my mouth. They say that ulcers are usually a sign of stress. I guess I have been under a lot of stress lately and the good news is I can finally relax a little bit.
I went to meet my supervisor at Queenstown Library in the afternoon with Joyce. We had a good sharing session and I got to share more about the reading programme that I tried out with the kids. This is definitely something I want to try out with my next class(especially if they need a little push to read).
I went to meet Khim at Borders afterwards and we had a lot of fun looking for bargain books with our 30% discount coupons. Borders has this promotion every once in a while and it is a good opportunity to chiong for some good books. Picked these 2 books up:
Crickwing by Janell Cannon
Library Lion by Michelle Knudsen
And it only cost me less than $23! Woo hoo!
On a separate note, DW and I went to Causeway Pt last night to catch Iron Man and it was a pretty good show. I liked the movie and the soundtrack is pretty good. Perhaps the movie is quite appealing because it is about a different kind of superhero. You don't have to come from a distant planet or be bitten by a radioactive spider. Just use your brains to make a kicka** suit of armour and you're good to go. I found the ending a little too convenient and the extra bit at the end was a bit anti-climax, but the way Tony Stark fought his way to freedom was really amazing!
In my house, DW calls me the Iron Man too, because I do all the ironing in the house! =)
