♥ Obstacles are those frightening things that appear when we take out mind off our GOALS

♥ Slow down and live..find your true joy before the day closes

♥ When life doesn't give you the best, you have to make the best out of it

♥ No matter how bad the storm is, there's a RAINBOW waiting

♥ The BATTLE is not over till it is over

♥ Limits exist only in the mind

♥ At the end, it's not the years in your life that counts; it's the life in your years

♥ A setback is an opportunity to begin more intelligently

♥ However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and cal lit hard names. It is not as bad as you think. The fault-finder will find faults even in paradise

♥ A smile is a curve that sets everything straight

♥ I love who I am because I am who I am

♥ When work is a pleasure, life is a joy; When work is a duty, life is a slavery

♥ When the going gets tough, the tough gets going

♥ Life is like riding a bicycle; you won't fall off unless you stop pedalling

♥ Life is a kaleidoscope

♥ When life hands you lemons, make lemonade

♥ He that is down need fear no fall

♥ 人生是没有草稿的；每一天就像张昂贵的上乘好纸；不能信守随便涂鸦；要惜心对待它

♥ 天将降大任于世人也
必先苦其心志，
劳其筋骨，
饿其体肤，
空乏起身，
行拂乱其所为，
所以动心忍性，
增益其所不能。

yay!

cheers to my 1st week!

i survived!

although i feel like i've aged A LOT.

although fridays only have a total of 3 periods,

2 out of the 3 periods, i'll be dealing with the notorious classes of p3 and p6.

some have attention problems

others have attitude problems

a short half-hour period can be spent pulling the naughty kids out to stand beside me

and getting their books on their table

looks like i cant have fun and interesting lessons with the p3 class already

no videos for them because they're not behaving

looks like my p5 and p6 kids are like angels

i feel so lucky teaching Social Studies

because resources are readily available online

and there are interesting videos online

and i can use them to get their attention

from what i've observed, a lot are interested in guns, weapons, wars, fires.

haha

that's good

suits the SS chapters (:

it's so good to be able to knock off at lunch time

and i can go home and eat lunch

that means i don't spend much (except for the bus fare)

i think during gatherings now,

the question of "How's work?' will surely pop out.

and you will see people giving disgusted looks

jiayou everyone who're slogging their guts out!

we finally know why sometimes we think that studying and schooling are much better options than working!

hang in there!

quite glad and thankful today

lessons went much smoother this time round

with much fewer distractions.

gotta go find more videos to teach social studies

i think very few students/staff/teachers can pronounce my surname correctly/properly

some call me ms liu, mrs liu, mrs yiu

all sorts of interesting names

i didn't want to write my name on the board cos they don't know how to pronounce it anyway

so i just verbally told them

during class, one student even asked me if i have the song 'Sorry Sorry' by SJ.

hilarious lah.

the confusing and troublesome part is to fetch the students up from the canteen area after their recess times.

it's more for discipline and order

but quite tiring for teachers.

oh.and i lost my beloved mechanical pencil while i brought the class to PE.

sobs.my favourite pencil.

nevermind lah.at least today is quite successful i guess

cheers xinliang!

jiayou xinliang!

i want to vent my anger here like crazy but i know i can't

cos my blog is super easy to find

and if my employer sees what i've written

i'll be quite dead

im still angry.

i didn't mind being scammed the first time

but if it's the second time, and it's the same old problem

(communication breakdown)

then i really have no idea what's administration work for.

it's a total representation of a complete 'market' FAILURE.

it fails BIG TIME man!

inefficiency

miscommunication

irresponsibility

like what gel said, i've totally lost my trust in them

if it's not for the money, i guess i would have gladly accepted admin jobs from recruit express

and ditch this present one.

i really don't know what to expect from them now

and i just realise i'll be teaching some of the students whom i've relief-ed during a Chinese lesson

the super loud/vulgar ones

headache ah...

how come they can look like angels from the outside and devils from the inside?

are they really out to test RTs' patience?

i never did that to all the relief teachers who taught me before

(okay..i hated some of them cos they were completely useless..and my class didn't create a din)

and why am i having 现世报?

nevermind!

my ultimate aim for this stint will be to 融化 their hearts!

i will, i have to, i must!

passion of life

finally decided to take up driving

actually it was my dad who insisted on me learning how to drive

i can totally imagine myself getting so confused over the gear lever

so much to do for a manual licence -.-

and now, this is the first time my dad can actually help in my 'school' work

gotta memorise and study the basic theory of driving

and dad knows it ALL!

yippee!

the scene of a sunflower field in Thailand shown in The Promise is really pretty!

1. If Xinliang were to become a school teacher, what would it be like for her?

A. A Pleasant Surprise

B. More Money

C. Wondering what to wear to school

D. All of the above

and yes! i got a job!

long-term relief teaching at Clementi Primary School!

long-term=3 months!

so i'll have to wake up as early as a normal school day

and i have a permanent tutee.

that means more work but more money!

haha

just hope that everything will go well!

passion of life

went to watch philharmonic winds' concert with mummy yesterday!

my mummy is the best!

accompany me to watch band concert!

yoohoO!

though i didn't recognise the medley of beatles' songs,

i really like the medley of songs from Sound of Music

and the christmas songs!

not much classical songs.

really surprised to see that the people were queueing orderly outside the esplanade concert hall

really unheard of in singapore

and of course there were security guards and policemen on duty.

and did i mention that the concert is FOC? >.<
