Work.


Home.


put the 2 together--> Work @ home :(
the holidays have started, but still have to go back to school for the first week.
and guess wat?
im doing school work at home...WAHAHA....!

i hate this, i really hate this...

ARGHHHHHHHHHHH...................dun bug me, let me blog!
i DREAD this kinda life. I WANNA QUIT!!!


the only days i love are those when i do not need to think about school at all :)
on weekends, i choose to devote myself fully to shopping and having FUN.. nothing else

watched StarWars yesterday..and i love it!
although the common understanding for Men is-->
Women can never comprehend StarWars. Don't ever watch with them, cos they will either madden you with heaps of questions or their snores

well, it's true to some extent, but i enjoyed the movie much more than i've expected myself to! :) hey, and i understood hor..
some might argue, "well, u think u understand what u have not understood because u didnt even know what u do not understand lor"

never mind


this is absurd.
look what i saw @ DinTaiFung...

haven they heard of this saying?-->
Too many cooks spoil the broth?
cant imagine all the chefs in there squeezing and squashing the 'char siew bao' i ordered like it was some smelly colored plasticine..

YUK..who would dare eat?!


but the egg fried rice was nice, *teeheehee...
caught dear with his most sulken expression, *muahaha..

now i know what they have been squeezing back in the kitchen...



my colleague gave me a print he took on 'Be Yourself Day' in school.
wahhaha... :D

ok, i know i look like a siao~cha~bo..

Happy 1st Birthday to My Blog!! :)

okok, it's a belated one... :)
Thanks to all my faithful blog-readers! This blog wont be successful without your support! :D

i'm walking like a duck now.

thighs aching like anything..
had a game of Captain's Ball in school with the kids and teachers yesterday. It was our Games Day.. didn't intend to play at first, but too bad, ALL YOUNG teachers are categorised under the "Energised and Talented" players...so, was arrowed... =(

the actual reason for not wanting to play was that i scared "malu"... definitely wont want to leave behind a legacy of being forever labelled as "the teacher who cant even catch a ball"....heh..
although i've been quite a regular player of Captain's Ball back in my sec and poly days, that had been so long time ago liao...

anyway,things turned out better than i expected, wahahha...
received and served rather good passes wor....haha....
WE WON!!!! me and some P6 kids..
in the end, had my class kids who were the audience coming up to tell me, "wah! ms liang, u played very well neh.."

wah siao.. definitely ego-stroking! ShiOk!
shit..i hate myself

anyway, i must be old liao. or it must be the lack of exercise..PAIN......

went DlbO last night to celebrate AhHock's Bday.
Before that, ate at 'Makansutra' near Esplanade with dear..
we were famished by the time we reached.. ordered Hokkien Mee, Fried Orr-Luak, Grilled Sambal Sting-Ray with 2 plates of rice plus cane juice..
i felt like a glutton!!
had to 'strap' dear to the table in order to prevent him from ordering some more food! he still wanted dim sum and satays

met Zen and Alan plus frens @ DlbO..seems like they've been expecting me..Opps! sorry for being sooo late!! heee...
it was nice meeting up with u guys! :P

had supper of Bak-Gu Teh with the rest after the session..wah lao.. i realised i cant mix liquor with BG Teh.. it made my face sooooo horribly red...like "Bao-Gong" :( couldnt do much damage-control to my appearance, so we took a cab by the roadside home.
Tsk...

by then, i was sooooo sleepy liao..
the triedness of the past whole week of late nights set in..
all teacs stayed in school till almost midnight last Thurs for the 'Meet the Parents Session'!
we worked for almost 17 hours that day...How about that?! HAHA!

went KK Hospital to visit an expecting colleague of mine who bled non-stop in school on Fri morning due to the strain the night before...
Thank God the baby was fine.
OHHHH WHERE IS THE WELFARE?!

was supposed to blog long before today, but was too busy to even on the PC....hehe

last wednesday was 'Be Yourself Day' in school..
all to be dressed up as Storybook characters, even the teachers.

together with a few colleagues, went to the costume shop @ Bussorah St with the intention of renting one..
WAH, it was daylight robbery!
at least 60 bucks to rent a costume..


i would rather use that money to buy a nice skirt that i can wear in the furture than to waste it on a costume to be only worn for an hour, heh....

so I BOUGHT A BOHEMIAN SKIRT!!! *yeahhhhhhh......
(it was an excuse to spend, haha)

teamed it with a white tank and self-made bead necklaces..
a headwreath from dad's bonsai and a pair of plastic wings made last minute...


,,,,TA..DAH~!
a fairy costume!!!


rememebered i wanted to dress up as a witch? seems that idea was quite popular with the teachers..
too many evil forces, so a good one to counteract


this is the best! haha....
the discipline master

group photo

i'm alright already :)
hehe...
a dose of him makes all woes wane

and i think i've found the root of the problem..

we finally met yesterday. after a week of 'torment'..
i went over to his place before going for dinner in the evening.
He tried his very best to hearten me and treated me like i'm the QUeen..heh..
he said the day was reserved specially just for me..
but the mistrust and hurt i harboured against him remained in the way, dismissing all he did to make up for me..
while waiting for him to wax his hair and do whatever a typical vain guy would, i sat at the dining table and looked on.
dunno why and from where, felt a rush of sadness within..

and i told him in his face that all that he's done to make up is not enough...
he stared stonily at me. Obviously, he didn't know what to say.

...and finally, he said.. he had enough..

the least i could do is to give him time to, and not compel against all he had tried to make things work now...
the way i'm behaving is gonna strain the relationship..
but .... i dunno why i kept thinking pessimistically..
i know it full well that this would eventually drain the both of us dry.. but i couldn't help it!!
i couldn't recall right now, the exact words we exchanged..but it felt like i was in a trance.. i can only remember i sobbed non-stop.. it has never been like this, i seldom cry infront of him or at least i try..but...
then, it became uncontrollable.. i was crying until i think my brain got 'drowned' in my tears cos suddenly,
there was this thought of ending everything...

staring at his kitchen window not far away from us, the thought of estimating how high i should jump in order to leap through the open window successfully actually materialised in my mind..
and from no where, the words, "i want to jump downnn..."..

and dear grabbed me.. i collapsed into his arms..
the immediate words i blurted out were, "i don't want to go back to school...dont leave me"
i think i scared the hell outta him.. he was hugging and crying with me too..
i cannot believe this. it was all so dramatic.

i was so scared..i felt like i've gone crazy..this isn't how a normal person would have behaved.
i've never been like this before, i must be out of my mind to actually harbour the thoughts of suicide.. (this has nothing got to do with the photoshoot, Breathens)
think i'm really going under depression due to the stress from work..

and not having him by my side to share the burdens with for the past week, stress must have escalated to a point it was almost destructive..
i was glad it didn't shatter the relationship between us.. if he hadn't be so patient with me, i don't know how things would turn out now.
Thanks dear...(*even thou i know u wont get to read this)
and all those who were by my side encouraging and supporting me

i'm alright now. really..
i'm happy and assured.

life still goes on.. there will always be stress from work.. it's a matter of how you handle it right :)
cheers
and love.....

i need help..

pyschological help..
i dun wan to say anything more..i've said enough...
my friends, my aunt...to anybody i could catch hold of to listen to my grousings..


kiyomi said it seems like i'm going through depression.
isst? dun scare me leh...

but one thing i know..i cannot even recognise myself...not tat my face has seriously gone out of shape, but...
it's the way i'm behaving...
towards him


guess i've reached the limit and have completely lost control over my emotions and actions..
and it's scary..
one minute i could be talking so nicely to him and the next, i would be so difficult and pick on every single thing..

he's still the nice guy i knew more than three years back..
it just the stress from work, cos i remember patience used to be one of my virtures... (okok, gimme some face..u dun have to vomit onto ur monitor screen :)
now i tend to be overly sensitive and flare up very easily..i guess it must be hard on him too.. juggling between work, friends and Schizophrenic-me

anyway, let's not talk about this anymore...
blog something on a lighter note :)

went photoshooting again!!
this time round, something different..
XiaoChong and Gerald wanted to try out the GOTHIC SUICIDAL theme...
have to specifically look for a white bathtub to die in lor..
so XiaoChong suggested we have the photoshoot in a hotel..
since our dear photographers are restrained by their tight budgets, we have to settle for the budget-hotels as well...

i was praying hard it wont be HOTEL 81
..and yes!
SPOT ON!
arghhhhhh....

met Gerald to go together, but ALAS! after getting off at Dhoby Ghaut..we were making aimless rounds and turns but in vain..Where the h*ll is tat hotel?!
(well, neither of us are regular customers mah....)
finally got into a cab cos XiaoChong was urging us liao..

Now the next problem...
Wat to say to the cab driver leh...?
cannot possibly say, "Uncle, Hotel 81 please!!"
i can almost imagine the driver turing round and with a cheeky smile, slyly says, "Ohhhhhh......Sure!!! Noooo plo..b..lem..O!"


wah lao...slaughter me.....
i threatened Gerald to say only "Bencoolen Street", and NOTHING ELSE
reached the hotel and we scampered in through the entrance with our heads in paper bags...

some shots...
while preparing for the SMOKY eyes look....
tat's pretty make up artist, KATE :)


XiaoChong positioning the Softbox in the cramped bathroom with WHITE bathtub..


FINALLY the shots from Gerald....!!
after some MAJOR face reconstruction using PS, whahahhahhaha
(that GoTHic outfit was carefully sourced out by XiaoChong)
OMG

die liaoo...


after the session, met Julian for a drink @ BarkerzIn..
was famished so i ordered the main--> Mussel Linguini!!!!


all thanks to Esther that i've learnt to appreciate the MuSSELY stuff! *slurppppp!!!


saw this ER SIN thing sticking out of one of the mussels...
was trying to figure out wat it was..



(NC-16 content..please skip this part if u are underaged,thank u)

me: it looks like.....the male's organ
Julian: Hmmm...... (scrutinizing it carefully)... dun think so lah....
me: no meh? see.. (using the fork to dissect the mussel further)
Julian: i'm not too sure too... but i dont think so laahhh
me: OMG!!!! wat's these?!? oh my! still got the b*lls over here! it's really the thing!!!!!
Julian: Hah....eat the sides then lor

me: aey, cannot be.. cos this's an orange mussel.. it is a female.. cannot have tat thing one. (Female crabs have orange eggs too)

Our conclusion: All mussels have that part inside them..
the next time u eat them, try looking for it, heh :p

thanks to all who have left words of encouragement in my fooble chatterbox..
tat's what frens are for :)

met Esther last night and went for dinner and shopping after work.
bought alot of stuff..heh...

i'm going ~gaga~ over straw bags...
actually bought one at Arab street again when i went with 2 of my colleagues to a costume shop there yesterday :)
school's gonna have this "BE YOURSELF DAY" next wednesday..and all teachers and kids are to be dressed up in storybook characters..?!
having a headache trying to decide what to be..i'm more for the Greeky-kind of outfit(Cleopatra...:p) after flipping and gagging over the photos of horrendous-looking mermaids and cinderellas' costumes...
*kill me to dress up as snow white or sleeping beauty...
maybe the wicked witch would be more suitable, heh hehheh

anyway,
wasn't I talking about my straw bag??


bought a Bolero jacket again!!!
esther got a lime green one, and me, turquoise!


then went to take photostickers AGAIN...
this time i'm not gonna post the photos of the stickers...
reckon u are all s i c k of looking at our photostickers already, aha..

but the photosticker machine really 'tok~gong' one...
we dun even know how to use it...
and wat's this?!?!


this is a toilet we went at Lucky Plaza..

i refused to pay the 20cents cos i insisted that it has been PAID for!
*sorry, couldnt blame me...its an occupational hazard)

after dinner, we were walking along Meridian Hotel when esther's strappy pumps gave way..no choice had to get a new pair of shoes there and then...
we went into this "专门骗tourists" -looking shop...and WOW!!!!!!!!!!
i gasped...

cos I SAW A WHOLE LOT OF MY CURRENT ADORES!!!





.........STRAW BAGS!!!!!!!!!!
ALL AT AFFORDABLE PRICES!!!!!!!!!

yes, i know i've just bought one tat afternoon,
BUT I COULDN'T RESIST!
so i bought one again..*teeheehee...

*i know...at the rate i'm spending, i would very soon turn bankrupt...

the lady boss was so nice, gave us at a discounted rate of $50 instead of $60 for the shoes and bag just bcos we didnt have enough cash with us...
(new shop cannot use Nets yet...)

DO patronise the shop! (before it gets its Nets machine up and working! *wink :)

finally got to talk to him last night..


i slept around eight in the evening..
..when you are sad, you just want to sleep your sorrows away..heh... *at least i don't drown myself with alcohol :)
the second reason was, i didn't want to endure having to wait for his calls and end up being disappointed again..

woke up after midnight and saw 2 messages from him.
he was out with his classmates cos one of them is flying off today..and he will call me "tomorrow"...(again?!) :(
and the next msg was asking me to join his friends @ Zouk on sat night...

i didn't want to cos i have a wedding dinner to attend on sat, and on sun, going photoshoot...i dont want to end up looking like a panda the next day (*anyway, a digression: the theme for sunday's photoshoot is gonna be SUICIDE...just nice. where got pple look pretty during suicide one :)

anyway, i just don't feel like meeting him lor..so it's actually an excuse..(cos most of the time, i'll be almost too happy to see him)
think he sensed it and even tried to 'plan' the schedule for me..

i told him i really needed to talk to him..
and he messaged me saying it's better to talk THE NEXT DAY after i've cooled down..


i replied saying i'm very calm..so much so that i don't feel anything at all...

i lied.
in fact, i was already in buckets of tears by then
...almost couldn't take it anymore..
i just couldn't understand why he could be so cruel not to even talk to me.


he finally called... and we had a good talk.
he said it would be soon over.. he really need to work hard for the Crowbar award.
he said he truly understood how i felt..cos he believed i'm understanding, that's why..

but....why must sacrifice me....
anyway, after much assurance,
i guess i would just have to trust him.. and keep my fingers crossed...

yes, i've agreed to meet him on sat.

...so guess that's all for now...
i'm going down town now to meet esther


i really need to chill out..

dunno if it's PMS or not..
feeling so insecure and miserable..

he's busy with his grad show, and i'm too..with school, but it isn't an excuse not to drop a line or even an sms...
he used to call every night..but for the past few days, it was i who initiated the calls..
i decided not to on tuesday night..and yes, as expected, i didnt hear from him..
and he actually promised to call yesterday in the afternoon..he didn't too...
i waited past midnight when i decided to call his house..

he wasn't at home.
so i called his mobile..

i dunno exactly how i should react, but my heart dropped when he picked up my call.. he was with his classmates at KTV..
first, he broke his promise to call in the afternoon..
second, he didn't tell me he was going KTV..
i never insisted he tell me his whereabouts..cos i believe it's his freedom not to.. who am i to keep tabs on him?
but the least he should do is at least leave a msg, so i won't be waiting for his call till wee hours...

he apologised, but it didn't seem to make any difference..at all
surprisingly, i didn't feel anything.. i felt it wasn't worth it anymore..
it's not the first time, and i think i've sort of given up.
maybe i'm unreasonable to think this way..i keep telling myself he must have his reasons..maybe he's really busy?
but why has he forgotten??

he's constantly on my mind, but how can he even forget forget forget about me??
i don't want to keep finding excuses for him to console myself anymore..
im really tired.
i feel burnt out..even in a relationship

my work is stressing me out..i cant even find solace in this relationship with him..
i don't feel like caring anymore.

this is an sms he's sent me this morning.. (why must he always kiss only after he has hurt?)
"No lor dear...U are always on my mind too! I swear! I was walking from city hall to school yesterday i saw this very nice top, i immediately thought of buying it 4 u. And there are so many times i come across nice food i thought i must bring u there.And I do bring u rite? everyday I'm so tired, even yesterday i went ktv and slept there lor. When I have free time at the gallery, i'll ask yang wei and those good in advertising so i could learn from them. Crowbar award is coming and it will greatly affect my career so i'm really working hard 4 it dear."

i don't know..
i really don't know..
i want to be behind him, supporting him always by being understanding, but somehow, i find myself behaving and feeling the same way everytime again.
why is that so? i cant comprehend myself too

i need help

went Sentosa's Sunset Bay with SFC peeps this morning..
heh heh...
i actually have more photos to post than words to say..
i'm so sleepy now...gonna sleep right after i blogged ;p YAWN

our plan was to go suntanning at the beach today..but it rained soon after we woke up in the morning..so kiki suggested we'll all go KTV..okie lor, then no need to be in beach wear liao :)
supposed to meet gerald @ 920 Serangoon MRT..that guy huh...still asked me not to be late, so i reached at 920 SHARP...
and he was NO WHERE to be seen..

as i was waiting, saw a seemingly familiar figure walking towards the EZlink top-up machine beside me...
it was my ex-flame! (let me digress, he was my first bf and we lasted only for 3 months...i was the bitch cos i ditched him.... after that, i was practically a nun , abstaining from BGRs altogether for 4 years before i met my current bf...)

anyway that was besides the point, more importantly is that we have not contacted or seen each other for 7 years.. (i was only 16yr old then...)

i couldn't contain the burning question within me, so i asked...
"Are you GeXing?"

He turned and stared blankly at me, "Who are you? How come you know my name?"

"I am Peimin."
He leaped (yes, literally) and gasped, "Peimin?!"

Never mind, he cant even recognise me now lor, haha...have i changed that much?
hmm... we exchanged some "Hi-Bye" chat before he went off..
dunno why, i had a weird feeling i couldn't explain after that.. not that i still had feelings for him, but bumping into an old friend (especially after so many years) really did stir some sentiments within...

Gerald came..
and off we set for Harbourfront :)

the weather was topsy turvy.. think it cannot make up its mind whether to be sunny or rainy... the dark clouds overhead didnt look promising
after shifting in and out of decisions- "Sentosa" or "KTV", we finally decided to go ahead with the original plan...BEACH! :)

darn! i wasnt in beach wear..
kill me to cut my jeans into shorts... kiki and i went hunting for a pair of shorts plus flip-flops
not much choices..ended up with a pair of super short denim shorts which i kept pulling afterwards.. kiki told me it looked decent, so OKAY..i'm just not used to wearing hot pants


the sky began to clear after we set off to sentosa :D
YAY, time to post photos!!
while waiting for the bus...

we reached!!

the guys started playing volleyball.....

while the girls did the usual...(take photos lo, *hiak hiak)
me and zen...

kiki and me...


we were really at our wits' end how to pass time at the beach....while waiting for Astor to arrive with his fishballs, we played "Heart Attack"...it's quite embarrassing...fancy having 9 adults playing this in the middle of a beach..
but who cares..as long as it's fun, *hehe..
the forfeit: to pose for the cam with a monkey face..wahaha....
i did a collage!!!!

(From top left: Gerald, Zen, JeffCool, Alan, Kiyomi, Winston, Fulong, Eggyoke and me)

after a while, the mat became our gambling den...
(what's kiki doin? wahahha...."mei liao lah......"



FInally Astor came with the long-awaited fishballs!!!!!
credit to him, post his face here, hehe


after a few more rounds of playing and forfeiting, decided to pack up and leave.. most of us were STONED liao..
especially the two who didnt sleep a wink the night before, heh :)

more photos....

me and alan

group....

NAFA Graduation Show 13th May - 20th May

dear's graduation show @ NAFA :)
rushed there after school yesterday to render my support :D

why are there so many anonymous people communicating at my fooble chatterbox? leave down your names leh, haha..

to reply to the first anonymous, i think i would need more space to yak which the box provide insufficient...especially when it comes to shopping and clothes, *teeheehee...tats why im writing here instead
(no, i don't earn ten thousand a month)....*SOMEONE PLEASE WOBBLE ME UP A LITTLE SO I WONT SPEND SO MUCH!!!

to guys..i would be blogging on shopping, clothes and fashion below...u can choose to abscond now, haha

anyway back to that question from Anonymous, i usually go Heeren and FarEast... more trendy clothes there, but i still dress quite conventionally. Anyway, as what Anonymous1 said, ebase is not bad..the clothes are from HK and it's quite trendy too...one of my faves, hehe...
Depending on what kind of styles you prefer, then can get the respective fashion magazines too.. hehe
i usually go for the Japanese fashion magazines from Kino..

then u can pore over the pages for new ways to team ur clothes.
some pictures from the mag bought a month ago...
:)




most importantly, an image consultant *wink* by my side is all i actually need! 8)

just back from facial...
feel so refreshed now :D *cos finally rewarded with a good rest and massage, teeheehee

i'm counting down the days to June holidays...
forsee these 2 weeks would be hectic. i've got so much stuff to do i don't even dare think about it.. only when i'm sleeping, my mind subconsciously and repeatedly lists the things i need to do(!)
i can't sleep in peace!!! argghhhhh....leave me alone!!!!

didn't even want to join dear and his friends for KTV yesterday (its rare that i would decline the chance of meeting him)
but
have had a bad headache last night, it became worse in the middle of the night.. coupled with slight flu and sore throat.. guess my body is badly in need of rest.. proper rest..


had been sleeping quite late for the whole of the last few weeks and mind is too occupied with the things i need to finish..
my body is retaliating liaoo.. admitting defeat soon..
i better find time to sleep earlier.. tat simply translates to NO chatting on MSN, No TV (i seldom watch also), No blogging..*okok, lesser la.. heee..
bear with me hor..

Sunday was Mother's Day..
Mom, as usual, didn't want any celebration of any sort..
bought some flowers on my way home :)
even thou nothing grand, they managed to put a smile on her face, hehe...

she always laments that flowers are the worst presents ever, cos they don't last and they aren't practical at all...
*but blahh... dun lie... ALL WOMEN LOVE FLOWERS lor..
(or at least i do, haha)

went over his place over the weekends to 'do up' his rucksack..
bought and cut leather strips to replace its original fabric zippers..:D
nice?

went with him to Arab St yesterday..wanted to get a straw bag... and ended up buying so much stuff! hehe...
i didn't know they sell so many things there that i can buy, wahahaha....

ALL STRAWY stuff!!! :D

this is a skirt i can sashay in to high tea!!!!! (no la, work)


passed by this very interesting shop... SEE? a retro refrigerator!!!


after that we went Heeren looking for a flower to accessorize my straw bag, but bought a beady necklace and a finger band instead, teeheehee... this is what happens when a woman goes shopping..she buys Alot MORE than what she's intended in the first place :D


see that pick top? it's actually an old piece from my wardrobe.. snipped half away and there i have....a chic bolero jacket!!! YAY


After Heeren, we went Plaza Sing to watch House of Wax..
Horrible show...horrible show.........

not that it's not nice...in fact, it is very nice...but too nice until it gets you into the story.. it was gory and makes us viewers feel as desperate as the victims in the movie.. in the middle of the show where the lead actress had her index finger snipped off(!) and lips made to be sealed with superglue(!), i told dear i had to leave the cinema..i almost couldn't take it anymore..it was a torture to watch somemore.. luckily zen smsed me at the right time to 'bring me back to reality'

after the show, we didn't feel like having dinner.. we actually felt like vomitting..haha..but still settled down at a food court near my place to eat something.. so peeps who wanna watch the movie "House of Wax" should eat before viewing, haha

and guess what.. facing directly our table was this --->


HOUSE of "zap cai puon"?!
...lost our appetite immediately...

yaY...sat morning!!

the best time of the week to laze around...
i've figured that my mood's at its best on friday nights and sat's mornings..cos its the WEEKENDS!!! yeahhhhhh....

and at its worst on sunday night.. guess that's the norm for all, isn't it?
find it so pitiful that i should think this way.. cos only people who hate their jobs would feel that way...
i didn't realise when i started having advanced monday blues.
a teacher's job is sacred..and i ashamed of myself..

anyway, i'm not a teacher but a miracle worker.. this sounds more comforting.

3 more weeks to hols :D
time flies when you are working hard.. a busy week goes by very fast, and weekends are the only thing i look forward to.
for the past few days i've been working like a cow. frantic marking starts even at 6 something in the morning.. and after school till 6pm.. (12 hours of work?!)

and my kids are gonna make me lose my voice soon..sigh..

yesterday, there's this cute indian boy in my class who changed his answers in a marked worksheet. (you say, AGAIN?)
after that Natalie's case, this joker must have drugged himself to have plucked up such 'courage'

(a sticker for kids who get all answers correct)
he came up to me and said, "ms liang, you marked my answer wrongly."
he's made a careless error, spelling "aquariam" instead of "aquarium"..and i had the "am" circled..
now there is an obvious eraser mark at the part where i circled.. and i'm sure i couldn't have circled a mistake even a bespectacled 90 yr old man wouldnt have missed...

i stared at him while all the 'detectives' (busybodies) in my class stood up and walked over to his desk..trying to find 'evidences' of his crime... "see, teacher? got eraser at his desk! yes yes, he rubbed off his answer!!!"

and i said, "you changed the answer."
he still can act so innocently saying, "no, i didn't change the answer."
*Note: the above dialogue was repeated like 8 times..before i had to say, "you better admit.. cos if i find out that you've changed the answer, you will get it worse from me.(this is the thing that ALL teachers lie about.. there's no such thing as a 'lighter' sentence :)"

so he finally nodded.
and you could imagine the earsplitting torment he got from me after that.
i seldom shout at my kids tat angrily before.. (*let me digress: my shouting and killer stares are only meant to be 'performed' in the classrooms.. so those peeps who have requested, dont ask me again to demonstrate these 'stunts' when i meet you hor..heh)
i didnt know if his ears got blocked in the result of that.. the class was dead silent. he didn't even dare look up.

okay, enough of school..

the sporty green bag i saw @ FarEast last sat had been bugging me for the whole of last week.. it's like enticing me, "Come, buy me...buy meeee.........."
i couldn't take it anymore so i went over yesterday after work..

Darn, i couldn't find it! i couldn't even remembered which shop i've seen it in.. so i called dear to see if he could remember, he told me it was on the 2nd floor, but i still didn't manage to find that shop.. despite making so many rounds.. Arghhhhhh!!!

think i would go down with him today to find it again..

and guess what i've bought instead? haha..a bikini!
No, it's not for next sat's Sentosa Day's Out with the sfc peeps..
kill me to wear something like that infront of them!! haha..

i walked into the shop cos the prices look welcoming, haha.. but chey..it's an advertising gimmick..i didn't see the "FROM" before the "$15" and the "onwards" after it...
anyway, i saw one piece that looks quite nice.. and didn't know what overcame me to buy it, haha..and it's not 15 bucks..its 44..

No, i'm far from having a killer bod
but i like the prints and the colors :D

so stressed out!!!! arghhhh....

i can't finish my syllabus in time for their exams next week, lots of filing to do, stacks and stacks of books to be marked!!!
my kids were complaining how much homework and worksheets they had to complete, but none of them realised i have to do 35 times more than them! *wail....*

I'm not a teacher, but a miracle worker

need to buy some elves' candies and leave them around my desk in the staff room so that the elves will come out at night to mark my books for me.
8)

not that i'm slow hor, my colleagues had been rather impressed with the speed i mark my stuff but... now, I SERIOUSLY CAN'T FINISH!!! O God
i'm not too worried about my class, but more concerned for the P4 science class i'm taking.
need to beg from teachers teaching that class to lend me some of their periods liao..
the worst thing is, i couldn't ask from their form teacher, that colleague of mine.

he's still sore at what happened, even though it's like 3 weeks since THE INCIDENT.
today, i took his class for Listening Compre..after the examination, i had to pass him his pupils' scripts...
was abit apprehensive at first cos since what happened, we had not talked or looked at each other at all.. but i had no choice today, i had to pass those papers to him personally.
so i went over to his desk and even greeted him before handling him the papers.

but guess what he did?
without even looking up, he took the papers and plopped them rudely onto his desk with a slight fling.
i was taken aback. To me, this sort of scene you only see in soap dramas..

it was so rude! i didn't expect him to act toward me in that way.. was what i have done so unpardonable that i should deserve such treatment from him?

i was so upset cos somehow, it makes me feel like it's my fault that things are what they are now. Am i really in the wrong?? i only wanted us to be 公私分明.. we are still colleagues what...
dear said maybe i was too harsh when i made my stand to him that time, but ... if i've know things will turn out the way it is now,.... haiz..never mind

photos taken with xin and yue last night @ esplanade!!
forgotten my camera, no choice have to take with the phone, heh :)
(my sec sch frens..see 30April's post for the old photographs, haha)

time to bloggg...... :)
lots of stuff to say, but experiencing mental block... sometimes i'll have verbal constipation... haiz

dear's finally done with his project assessment..
so weekends' for shopping again! YAY!!!
but things didnt turn out quite right yesterday....
we were supposed to meet @ 330pm Orchard.

he's a perpectual foot-dragger, so i've already warned him beforehand to reach on the dot liaoo...
at 315pm, my sixth sense told me that he must be rushing and would gonna waste money on the cab fare, so i messaged him "dear, u dont take cab hor..take ur time, its okay"

and HE REALLY DID TAKE HIS TIME lor!!!
at 430pm, 一个鬼影都没有....

so i called his place..
And guess what?! HE WAS STILL AT HOME AT 430!!!!!!

i bellowed into my cell, not bothered by the stares from the people nearby. i've never felt so heated before..there i was waiting like a fool, and he......!!!!!!!!
nevermind...

i shouted at him that he can forget about meeting me and hung up.
he tried calling me. i turned off my handphone, leaving him absolutely no means to contact me at all...

i was fuming...
i shopped around like a mad woman let lose after being deprived of 100 years of shopping...

i switched my cell on only at 530pm...it was bombarded with smses from him.. all those apologetic messages u could think of..
i was already picturing him rushing to Orchard, looking everywhere for me, so i called him..
and i couldnt be more disappointed..cos HE DID NOT LEAVE THE HOUSE AT ALL!!!.. reason being: he couldnt contact me and he didnt know where exactly i was..
he said... he didnt want to make a wasted trip down..
so i shouted, "BLAME ME LAH?! WASTED TRIP?! CANT YOU JUST COME AND FIND ME?! NOW I'M AM THE ONE WHO HAD MADE THE WASTED TRIP LOR!!!!" he was spluttering and saying, "sorry la sorry lah....how i know? i coming now okok??"

i was so mad.

deep down inside i was cursing the drama director of F4's "Meteor Garden".. in reality, those romantic scenes are nonexistent.. bfs rushing from street to street desperately finding their gfs?! My foot!

:(

he finally came.. there i was sitting at the fountain feeling so sorry for myself.. it turned out that he actually did message me at 310pm informing me that he would be late...but dunno why, the msg was left unsent... guess there was some sort of network error...

oh....

anyway, he still was late wat...almost 2 hours know?!
he was trying his best to humour me.. he said dinner's on him, and even suggested to take photostickers with me! (for your note, getting him to take neoprints with me can be equated to beheading him...yes, he's usually as reluctant)
now, he's offering...its like him placing a parang with both hands at my feet

after dinner, we actually wanted to go somewhere to chill out..doubleO, ktv or catch a movie...
in the end, all didnt work out, no kakis to dlbO, ktvs fully booked (unless to the one we went the last time round... but, no mood la go that place..heh), no nice movies also...
so we went home at around midnight..

on the cab home, he asked, "happy? bought new shoes.."
so i asked him, "u? didnt buy anything hor?"
and he replied.. "Got..bought back a heart...bought back a smile..."

EEEE.... cant stand it...
why can he hurt so much and yet be so sweet?

..guess tat's why i love him so....

*photostickers we took
