Happy teacher's day

Today is teacher's day celebration but I did not celebrate it.

My mum woke me up late at 7.30am and to go school at 8am just to attend celebration will make people wag their tongues, my (ulterior) motive to go school.

Luckily I got a call from the NUH, asking me to come early for the appointment. i am fine with arrangement. I packed my stuff and went to NUH.



The place is always crowded with people.

At 11.45am, my name was being called by the doctor herself. I was quite anxious about the blood test result - hepatitis A or B or C. She broke the good news that I just had hepatitis A and the blood test show a lot of improvement and I had a speed recovery. She would ask me to come down again for one more blood test upon confirmation that I have full anti botics immunization in my body.

I was so relieved and happy because I am clean as a baby. Suddenly her behaviour changed for better and somehow respect me. One cannot judge someone by appearance or outlooks.

After that, I went big bookshop at Clementi to buy some stationery and then took a bus 7 to Orchard Road for lunch at Cuppage Centre

After that I went to gym for good sweat-out at bodycombat after doing some weigh-training. My body was getting flabby and losing elasticity.

Nevertheless, Happy Teachers'Day to my friends ( who are teachers ). your commitment and dedication toward education and students are full or admiration. Keep learning and teaching. Be a role model for students.God blesses!

Going back to School

Today I decided to go to school but only at 1.30pm to join Mr N for the MWOS workshop with the D&T students.

I looked much healthier so I decide to don a new G200 shirt and set my hairstyle neat and nice.

It felt quite weird to come to school after a long break. Mr N asked for my welfare of health. Even HOD who bumped into me at lobby, noticed that I had lost my weight a lot.

Well, I had been drinking and eating fruits/vegetables and porridges.

Today will be last day to attend the workship in Singapore Polytechnic.

I am going to miss the food at Foodcourt 1. The food were just so delicious.

Then Go back home and watch singapore idol

Cooking time

Today I went to Prime supermarket to buy some grocery to make hainanese chicken.

While waiting for the dishes to be cooked, I had mee goreng which i bought nearby for breakfast and left mee siam for my mum when she returned home from work.

I did some work as later I need to go for tuition.

Once I reach school, the students came very late for my test. Everyone dressed up not in uniform because the school were having 'Be Yourself' day.

The turn out today was very disappointing. The students did not know how to prirotize the importance of studies.

Role model

Today I needed to go school for 'extra class' at 3pm despite not being certified medically fit. Well, I am feeling well.

Today I feel quite worried for my students as the exam is just round the corner. Today i conduct the maths test for them but somehow the basic thing, they still did not manage to do it and ask me.

I was really panic-stricken.

Overall, the maths test was disaster.

After the session ended, I thought that the vice-principal or the principal asked me about their performance and even chatted with their science teacher about them. I was quite surpised with his feedback on certain students whom I was quite worried most.

He said, they need a good role model for them and I did fit that criteria. I was like ..gee thank you...

But I still got a lot of things to learn....especially classroom management and clarity of voice and my weird accent.

Feeling healthier

I woke up early and continue doing my work. I spent my whole saturday doing them.

Scan, cut and paste, arrange and set the assignment. It became a monotonous work. This question the teaching objective. I love teaching still but the administrative parts burn us out. Period!

Part and parcel of life.

I am feeling healthier and better today except that my eyes are still yellowish and my sores near my mouth took so much time to heal. It is healing but it leave ugly spot on my face. Vain people like me cannot tolerate such ugliness.

Most of time I spent at home.

Homework

Today I spent my whole day preparing assignment material for school as well as tuition so that I won't be rushing to finish them and rush hours will stress me.

Perfectionist is a disease.Perfectionists are prone to health problems because they are under constant stress.I need a cure for it.

Bloody high standard for myself. I need to learn to ease up that syndrome and learn to accept that making mistakes, small mistakes I mean, are inevitable.

Back to my work.

At night, I went for jog, perhaps to activate my lazy body and organs to work hard and fast as well as to increase blood circulation. It had been a long time I jog and within 6 rounds, I gone case. I could not continue and just did leisure walk before going home.

A visit to NUH again

Today my mum took leave just to accompany me to go NUH later. I thought of going there myself instead. After late breakfast, we took a cab to NUH and reached there quite early when the appointment time was 12pm. We register first and wait for the number.

Surpisingly, the place is quite crowded with people but not so much people than those in cancer centre. It is kinda of scary to know the high number of cancer-stricken people. Life is so damn fragile.

While waiting for consultation, I got annoyed by this fat uncle who kept taking the sweets which of course meant for the visitor and patients at every almost minutes. He kept the rest of the sweet which he took a handful of them and just ate one.

Then he continued taking more and pop only one. I had never seen such greedy behaviour at all. I wont bother to curse him because my karma points are running low.

We manage to meet doctor who is female at 12.30pm. The doctor keeps asking questions including very sensitive ones pertaining to the sickness. As if i was being contracted to sexually-transmitted disease. Thank goodness, my mum did not understand english. Or else she would start thinking ridiculously.

After consultation, I was brought to the triage room for blood taking. I hate blood taking procedure and hate needles. I had bad experience last time and my both hands are still painful. The nurse is quite nice enough to distract me and I felt slight prick pain only. I did not daring enough to see her extracting my blood. At the end of procedure, I saw four tube of my dark red blood. I did not believe she took so much of them.

I am going to have 7 different kind of blood test for my liver. It cost me money. Luckily I am civil servant hence a lot of subsidies.

While going back home, I am still worried about the outcome and this time, I won't bring my mum to NUH next thursday follow-up.I was confused and blur by her so much questions.

The questions were mostly about sex apparently as if I contracted some sexually-tranmisted disease.

1) Do you have a girlfriend?
2) Did you have sex in padang, sumatra?
3) Do you have sex with multiple partners?
4) Did you visit prostitutes?
5) Are you straight?
6) Did you take any drugs like subutex or other kind?
7) Did you have any blood transfusion?

So damn paparazzi-felt. I am a teacher and role model for young generation, what make you confirmed that I got hepatitis B?

After making a payment, I looked through the blood test and mostly about finding hepatitis B. That B**** did not believe me at all. So irritated.

After that, I accompany my mum to buy grocery and a lot of fruits and vegetables.

Bloated

For a past few days daily, I tried to improve and cleanse my liver as well as for health sake.

1) Eating porridge cooked by my mum
2) Eating a lot of green and red apples (with addition of beetrot) with occasionally other kinds of fruits, not water melon.
3) Drinking leman hot water early money.
4) Taking a stroll on the park to stimulate blood circulation
5) Washing hands after toilet using medicated soap.
6) Drink a lottttttttttttttttttttttt of water almost 4 buckets

Cleanliness is next to godliness and Man's health is actually Man's wealth. I did not take care well of my own personal hygience which I neglected much.

My grandparents came down to visit us and see how I was doing.

Homoepathy Cure?

Today my mum wanted to bring me to another doctor whom she describe miracle healer. We took taxi to Tradehub 21 which surpised me that there was existence of clinic in such commercial building that sold mostly furnitures and lightings.

We entered inside and got registered. I looked around and the place looked like a tuition centre. Actually, the doctor is practising homeopathy, which is an alternative medical system.

Key concepts of homeopathy include:

Homeopathy seeks to stimulate the body's defense mechanisms and processes so as to prevent or treat illness.

Treatment involves giving very small doses of substances called remedies that, according to homeopathy, would produce the same or similar symptoms of illness in healthy people if they were given in larger doses.

Treatment in homeopathy is individualized (tailored to each person). Homeopathic practitioners select remedies according to a total picture of the patient, including not only symptoms but lifestyle, emotional and mental states, and other factors.

He looked at me and just asked me few question without checking pulse, blood pressure or so ever. There was no contact between both of us. He looked very expertise. He told me that the sores near my lips took time to heal because my liver which is the cleaning machine,was not functioning well. Hence the blood system is quite dirty.

I wonder why now. No wonder it heals very very slow.Usually any cuts or sore I developed would heal at least 2 days only. But now sore had been bugging me for two weeks.

He prescribed three bottle of tablets for my liver to clean and flush the toxin presents and just rest well. I must finish the course, most importantly. Thanks Goodness, he is not witchdoctor or some bomoh.

what is hepatitis ?

Hepatitis A is an enterovirus transmitted by the orofecal route, such as contaminated food. It causes an acute form of hepatitis (inflammation of the liver) and does not have a chronic stage.

The patient's immune system makes antibodies against Hepatitis A that confer immunity against future infection. A vaccine is available that will prevent infection from hepatitis A for life.

Hepatitis A is a disease affecting the liver, and caused by the Hepatitis A virus (abbreviated HAV). Only 3 out of 4 people with hepatitis A have symptoms. Those symptoms may include:

Jaundice (showing up first as yellow eyes)
Dark urine
Nausea
Fever
Fatigue
Loss of appetite
Stomach ache
Vomiting

There is no specific treatment for Hepatitis A. Sufferers are advised to rest, avoid alcohol, eat a well-balanced diet, and stay hydrated

Hepatitis A can be prevented by good hygiene and sanitation. Vaccination is also available, and is recommended in areas where the prevalence of hepatitis A is high.

Ways to prevent hepatitis A include the following:

- Wash hands with soap and warm water before preparing or eating food, and after sexual activity.
- Keep bathrooms clean and disinfected after every use.
- Cook shellfish thoroughly before eating.
- Drink water from approved sources only.
- Use a dental dam or sheet of plastic wrap during anilingus.

Hepatitis B is a diseases of the liver caused by the Hepatitis B virus (HBV), a member of the Hepadnavirus family[1] and one of several unrelated viral species which cause viral hepatitis. It was originally known as "serum hepatitis" and has caused current epidemics in parts of Asia and Africa[2].

Hepatitis B is recognized as endemic in China and various other parts of Asia[3]. Over one-third of the world's population has been or is actively infected by the virus, which results in liver inflammation, vomiting, jaundice, and death in the worst cases.

Hepatitis B is largely transmitted through exposure to bodily fluids containing the virus. This includes unprotected sexual contact, blood transfusions, re-use of contaminated needles and syringes, vertical transmission from mother to child during childbirth, and so on. The primary method of transmission depends on the prevalence of the disease in a given area. In low prevalence areas, such as the continental United States, IV drug abuse and unprotected sex are the primary methods.

There are currently several treatments for chronic hepatitis B that can increase a person's chance of clearing the infection. Treatments are available in the form of antivirals such as lamivudine and adefovir and immune system modulators such as interferon alpha. There are several other antivirals under investigation. Roughly, all of the currently available treatments, when used alone, are about equally efficacious. However, some individuals are much more likely to respond than others. It does not appear that combination therapy offers any advantages.

In general, each works by reducing the viral load by several orders of magnitude thus helping a body's immune system clear the infection. Treatment strategies should be individualized by a doctor and patient. Considerations include the risks associated with each treatment, a person's likelihood of clearing the virus with treatment, a person's risk for developing complications of persistent infection, and development of viral resistance with some of the treatments.

Several vaccines have been developed for the prevention of hepatitis B virus infection. These rely on the use of one of the viral proteins (hepatitis B surface antigen or HBsAg). The vaccine was originally prepared from plasma obtained from patients who had long-standing hepatitis B virus infection. However, currently, these are more often made using recombinant technology, though plasma-derived vaccines continue to be used; the two types of vaccines are equally effective and safe.


I must start to get immunization for all hepatitis. I wonder what type I get? hopefully not B. cannot be B.

Worrry

I rest at home and seeing myself in teh mirror was really painful. What the mirror reflected was a monster. I look really terrible and almost unrecognisable ( yeah, I was just exagrating a bit.

I drink almost every minute non stop. At the end of the day, I could count almost 5 bucket of water just to flush out the excess birulibin and any toxin presents.

I am so bloated

Another chapter of life

Today I decided to go to Polyclinic to confirm and reassure myself that I did have a liver inflammation or infection or whatever after reading about the symptooms I had through internet.

When I was sick, I really did not much bothered with dressing up and looking good. I just want to get healthy. It is my turn to visit the doctor after almost one and half hours later.

I just told him the symptoms and medical histories past few weeks. He suspected that I had liver inflammation and will be sent for further examination to NUH today.

What's new? and I was glad enough to see doctor fast and to be treated fast. I quickly rushed home because I forgot to bring my handphone. I called my mum that I needed to be sent to NUH now.

Today was my grandauntie's son's wedding and definitely people would ask what the commotion about me? I hated being golden boy in the family.

People would just not stop asking about me and my sickness.

My mum and I went to NUH by taxi and did some normal stuff like urine test, blood pressure taking and so on. Before that I was stopped by male nurse at triage asking me so much questions as if he was doctor. I kept repeating the same things again and again, especially the trip to Padang, Sumatra.

It was like two months ago.

My mum was surpised to see my the colour of my urine - dark brown. I was shocked myself almost daily.

Then I was called by the filipino male nurse to go the room. He again asked me same questions again and again. I was like so damn tired and pissed off.Then he wanted to draw some blood for test.

I hated needles and pain inflicted by those sharp things.Worse still, he tried to draw blood from the veins on my hand which was impossible. Then he tried to draw blood on my right hand. It was really so painful that I really really trembled like hell. Yeah, he did not manage to get the blood drawn and want to do my left hand for withdrawal.

I sealed my fate to this nurse,serious. He mumbled some words, which may be prayer of succeess. Although it is not painful, unfortunately he DID not get the blood from BOTH hands. I complained to my mum that it was really painful especially the right one.

I hated him. So do my mum.

My mum informed me that my sister and her hubby came down to NUH whom my mum was against her coming since she is pregnant at the moment. My sister is always stubborn.

Then I was sent to the ward to rest awhile before going for third round. This time, he use the BIG vein between my arms for drawing. It did not feel much painful, perhaps the skin is not that thick. After that,we had to wait for the blood test result which takes hours to get it.

Some of the patients' kins were making din about the long waiting time and yet did not get the outcome.

At 6.45pm, the same nurse came and talked to us whether I want to be warded for today for further examination. My sister agreed with the nurse but my mum hesistated about sending me being warded. She prefer me to stay at home and just rest first and wait for second medical check up and see how the outcome is.

She did not believe in hospital's way of handling patients to get well.

The male nurse told me that there is high prossiblity of me getting hepatitis A or B. He even asked me whether I had sex at Sumatra. I was like ...hullo, it was family outing.....the most I could do was masturbating myself.It was really offensive to ask me that.

I just hated nurse who pretended to know so much but did not know how to draw blood. I just rolled eyes and did not listen to him apparently. I just want to know whether I can get cured fast. I need to work

While waiting, I was given a medication and 8 days MC leave. I was like ...wah so long... I just started working and then given so many days MC. I felt so worried about my future.

Well, things happen for reason. Maybe God has better plans for us in future.

Another Remarks by students

Students were quick to observe anything strange or wrong with the adults such as teachers and other school-related personnels.

Today there is a MWOS workshop with students at singapore polytechnic.

One of students ask me whether my liver is working well or not because my eyes does not look well and yellowish. My skin also start to get yellowish too and the best thing I was wearing yellow shirt.

I am like banana.

I start to get worried about myself and also thinking nonsense that I was going to die soon and blah blah blah.....I am so afraid.

Yellow Eyes

Today I went for a teaching with Ms L. The students asked me why my eyes ( the white portion) were so yellowish. Is it because I was smoking too much?

I do not smoke at all.

I started to get panic and went to toilet and see my eyes.

IT WAS TRUE and it is not a normal kind of yellow but really whole bright yellow covered the white parts of my eyes. I look quite scary, more ever with the sores on my lips.

I look like a monster.

Later at home, I did a research on this symptom. High possibility I had a problem with liver and I think i would be going to doctor on Saturday to confirm.

Sick Leave AGAIN

I decide to visit doctor again but this time near my area. Suddenly my body developed rashes and my stomach is getting bloated. My body is getting worse. Damn it!



I just hope for a medical certificate only since today I have nothing in school so I can rest well.

Continue with life

Today i decide to wear spectacle to school for a first time. I hate it because I looked nerdy. Even the students say so. Today I spent my time shutting off from the world outside.

I afraid I might spread my fever to the students because I still felt unwell. My health is getting worse when I start to give a remedial to one class. I was not in the mood to teach at all.

I lost my voice too. I cannot take it

Sick leave

Stay at home and recuperate but I just felt that my body is functioning weird lately and that freaks me out in certain way. I know my body well.

I am becoming haggard and skinny.

Fall SICK!

Today I suddenly felt so weak and had no appetite. I ate the panadol of different kind today. Yesterday I ate panadol meant for mucle aches, and last friday I ate the powder form of panadol for cold and flu.

Today I went to sinseh to buy panadol in powder form for fever. I realised that i ate so many types of panadol and mostly meant for headache, not fever.

At night, my mum brought me to the clinic which was opened on sunday till night. There were quite a number of visitors today. I felt nausea and weakness. Even my pee is dark in colour. I started to wonder why.

After consultation, I was just given normal medicine including panadol(again)and most importantly medical certificate.

While waiting for medicine, I heard this young female teenager telling her mum that she wanted to leave the clinic, afrard of getting infected because there are presence of much virus. My mum and I found it offensive to hear such statement. She did not have any ethic and no respect. As if she did not get sick before.

I really wanted to give my piece of mind but heck cares! God will punish her for being foul-mouthed brat. Next time, when one member of the family sick, why whole family come and follow and fill up the small space in clinic. So damn dumb!

Home again but rest!

I suspect that detox gone wrong.

Meet-up with friends

Today I was meeting Hui hui, hung yong and Bee lan at City Hall for lunch despite feeling unwell today. Promise made last week and I had to go. Three of us scouted for the place to eat while waiting for Bee lan to come. We decided on Thai Express.

Bee lan came and passed the mini tee to me which I bet I could not wear it at all. Then we chatted while having lunch. I seriously had no appetite to eat my meal.



The food each of us had.













The papaya salad sucks big time!



Then, we shopped around the city hall underground for awhile before heading to Settler's cafe near Clarke Quay MRT station. When we reached there, we did not have any table as most of them are being reserved.

Then we took a cab to minds cafe at selegie road. We did play a lot of games such as blokus, sleeping princess, sequence and many many more.Bee lan left us halfway. At 6pm, we went back home. I felt very tired.

I hate Fridays

I had to be invigilator for listening comprehension for this class last minute. I feel so weird to be one since I had been a candidate since secondary school. I have to parrot phrase the rules and regulation of examination. It was just so weird. The time during invigilation is always slow.

Friday is the most busy day of a week. I won't have any break at all and I do not want to go for a break together with upper secondary students. I decide on having cookies I bought earlier to fill my stomach before preparing for next lesson.

I had already stressful time earlier just now teaching D & T class. I felt so lousy as teacher, a educator. Being perfectionist, I feel that my teaching is quite bad and unorganized.I did my best yet I did not much to my own expectation.

Maybe I felt sick today.

I hate to go for reading period. The pupils just switch off and I have to be stern and shout at these pupil to do the work. I hate to scold pupils at all. Sighs!

Then I have to go to Singapore Polytechnic for the workshop. There goes my friday. My friday is always packed with lessons and CCA.

The workshop end at 6.30pm and going back home at peak hours annoyed me.Those traffic jam,terrible human traffic and long waiting period.

Frustrated.

School Holiday

Today I feel a little better after medication. I watched HBO movie - Sleep Over for awhile before meeting my mum at Jurong Point to settle some bank account.

While waiting for her, I went for shopping forawhile at Watson's Store to buy some medication.I met my little cousin working there which really surpised.

Seeing her make me feel so old. I did not know why and I hate such feeling.

After settling the banking thingy,we did some grocery shopping at Liberty supermarket.

Nothing much to do but just to sleep again to recuperate.

National Day songs make me feel so old. What's wrong with me?

I am so gerascophobic

National Day

Talking about national Day, my parents were going to Johor Bahru with my sister for leisure holiday without me. I felt a little bit sick to travel far.

I already promised to meet Kay later.

The thing about me that I HATE lateness and I lost my steam after 15 minutes of waiting. I just went back home if my friends late for no damn reason. I believe in punctuality.

I rather make an effort to come early or maybe on time for any gathering unless certain circumstance.

Fuck the people who said to me that they are just fashinably late. These people are damn morons with empty ambitions.

I waited for Kay for 2 hours which made me really boiled with anger. I think that sparked my fever because I suddenly felt hot and sick. I just had no mood to enjoy my day today. When I am in bad mood, the world is not as good as well.

Kay was so surpised with my pettiness and egoistic attitude for doing things in my way. That was the only characteristic I really tried to improve and change. It had been years since I had such attitude till now.

We had meal at Na Na Thai restaurant at FAr East Plaza and also to relax my aching legs. Then we window-shopped at Far East Plaza as well as DFS store until we decided to watch movie - My Super Ex-girlfriend.

We chill out at McCafe outside for awhile because I felt quite cold. I think I was getting sick more as I developed headache plus hotness of body and aching muscles.

The show was very B-rated movie with very funny plot. Imagine to watch Uma Thurman in very sexy superhero costume and named herself as G-Girl can be very hilarious and funny.It sounded so gay.

The morale of the story - superheroes are still have feeling and in need of love. They do behave like human except that they can manipulate their superpower for personal gains/ satisfaction.

After that, we went back home. It was so damn crowded with people which made feel more irritated and annoyed that aggravate my sickness.

Once I reached home, I took a bath and the coolness of water killed me instantly. I shivered real bad. I took a medication and went to sleep.

Teacher's Preparatory Programme 2

Today, I was late for the programme by 10 minutes. I cannot even walk properly and fast because my legs and butts were still sore. Everyone was already here, actually not all.

Mr Foo continued his lecture and today he is going to touch on very important topic: Classroom Management. Today it was my turn to present the presentation to the class which I was really not that particularly enthuasistic about.

As usual, I was always being comical with my sense(less) of humour and weird accent.I need to improve on my presentation skill.

Today tea break, we had cheese hotdog, Kueh lapis and another chinese kueh.

During lunch period, we all walk to River Valley Road to have a lunch at coffeeshop. I had mee goreng chicken. Then we walked back to the seminar to continue the lecture.

Our group is the biggest and most 'naughty' one. I love my group.

Then at 5 pm, we ended the course and went back home.

The only disappointment I had today that I did not attend my first celebration in school - National Day Celebration. I thought that I missed the enjoyable atmosphere in school. So sad.

Teacher Preparatory Programme 1

Today I woke up so early just to attend the teacher preparatory programme organized by Ministry Of Education at Teachers' Network at Grange Road. I did not even know where the place was. Worse still, I did not have the piece of information with me.

I took a bus 16 but missed the bus stop by one. I had to walk back to the Teachers Network with my smart dressing. Luckily I was not late for the course. I went to the seminar room, sign the attendance and sit at empty space with one person sitting on it.

More and more people came and eventually filled the empty seats. Then we were introduced to one another and exchanged some teaching experiences in individual school. I knew one guy named Raihan who also was same course in NTU as me.

I was anti-social in NTU or else I knew him somehow. He is Physical Education teacher. Most of the people in the group were from the East while me n the girl, Zhao Ying are from West side of Singapore.

I hate personal introduction.And I wore too smart for the course. I should have listen to Yin Thong.

I love tea breaks

During lunch period, Most of us went to the canteen. I found the canteen food sucks. Luckily, Aliff asked me to join him and other groupmates for lunch outside the Teachers Network premise.

The place ( along the River Valley Road ) brought back so many memories. I used to have supper after clubbing at zouk.

I got closer to the groupmates during the lunch period.

We end the programmes at 5pm. Most of guys drive. I was filled with envy.

I did not go to Cali gym for weight training hence I went back home

Weight Training At last

I managed to go cali gym for weight training although I hate going to gym on weekend.

I did not to bump into people I did not wish to see.

I did some weight-training on my arms before attending ABT by James.

It had been a long time I attend his class. During his class, I almost gave up but I tried to motivate myself again and again but not forcing my body.

After the class, I was barely walked properly. My butts and legs ached like hell. A price of vanity I needed to pay.

To look good.

I went back home and rest awhile.

I could not wait for tomorrow's course.

My so called Social Life

The good thing about being a teacher is I can watch cultural performances by students at cheapest rate or even free of charge. Today I had to attend the cultural performance by my school at Jurong East Regional Library.

I was overwhelmed by the colourful and beautiful displays ( their costumes)of the many schools. I sat down with other teacher and watched the performance. I was amazed by the extra ordinary performances by students whom I so-called very naughty ones.

I feel happy to see them contribute to the society in positive way. They r so talented. Anyway I can network with other teachers too as well as give moral support to the students.

I felt like a celebraity when the students want to take picture with me. Very wannabe. Too bad I cannot do "act-cute" poses. I have to maintain role of someone who give a good image.

I am so morally-obliged.

Then after the performance, the principal and Vice-principal thanked me for coming, thanks to the teacher who invited me. I had some food at reception table and then have a photo taking session where I became a photographer as well as part of the family.

After that, I went back home and got ready to go shopping with lily before going gym. Suddenly, I look at the mirror and realised that I had a bloogshot eyes. It meant I got sore eyes due to prolong wear of lens.

I smsed lily that I cannot make it for the outing so I could sleep my eyes. I put some medication and went to sleep.

At 7pm, I woke up and received a sms from Ridz. he asked me out. I check my eyes and luckily the redness reduced. Hence I decided to join him and I had to wear spectacle instead.

Ridz picked me up at my place and then drove to Far East Plaza. We had dinner at Sakura Restaurant. This time, I paid for the dinner. Then we decided to watch movie spontanuesely.

We watched Lady In Water movie. I thought the movie insult my intelligence or rather did not stimulate my thought where I knew what the scene would be expected next. So un-original.

Waste of money.

Because of my boredom, I accidentally notice the couple beside Ridz. I saw the guy fondled his girlfriend's breast while she enjoyed her popcorn. That I called interesting and I kept stealing glance at them.

I know, I know. It is natural to be curious right.

After the show, Ridz drove to Boat Quay to chill out at TCC cafe for a while. he parked at UOB plaza carpark.

The lift reminded me of the Charlie's Angel the movie. It was very oriental.

We were discussing on the budget of buying a car as well as other issue. This time, I paid for his drinks.

Then he sent me back home after topping the fuel at SPC nearby TCC cafe.

It is so convenient and expensive to have a car.

My first day to attend CCA - NCC

Today I think I can relax a bit today but I am wrong.

YT and I went to attend the daily staff exercise in assembly hall. Today we were going to do Wushu. Luckily I changed into trankpants hence more comfortable for the warm-up. The warm-up was very yogaic.

Time to show off.

After that, I went to the wrokshop to prepare my teaching material before the students came. I was quite excited as well as nervous to teach the class. I did not have any ability to operate any big machines yet.

Today I just ask them to do some exercises before going for the pratical lesson. I was actually perspired while showing them how to do the tools. I thought I did the demonstration wrong but then, teaching is drama.

I told them to take their workpiece and do some marking for drilling the hole later.

I asked Mr L's help to demo the drilling steps for them because I did not have a proper handling of that machine. I guessed that I needed to make a lot of trips to Workshop for hand-ons learning.

The rest of the class did some thinking process to design their workpiece. Good thing, I also could do my own workpiece. It had been a long time that I did my pencil holder during secondary school.

I remembered that I hated technical studies during secondary school.

Then, I had to rush for another class. I just did some observation only until I had to go to another class to give warning to few pupils for not coming for remedial class. Mr G, the operations manager walked around and caught two students in my class sleeping. I did not wish to wake them up because I could not be bothered with them at all.Well, It did reflect my inactivity in disciplining the class that day ONLY.

After I was done scolding the class, I waited for Ms L to come and teach the class. After a long waiting, I decided to find her because I did not have a ny tecahing materials for them.

I found out that she was handling the lower sec students who accused her of something she did not do, of course. Now, it involved the parents and principal. Not again. Now the kids were crying since they knew they were in big truble for lying.

Then Ms L came to the class and continue teaching. Then I need to rush to staff room to take my visualiser for next class. I was so tired that I came to wrong class. I commanded to greet me which surpise me that they did not know my name.

Until, I realised that I was in wrong class. I was surpised that why the class was suddenly well-behaved.

Then I did some correction on the comprehension on this class. At 1pm, I rushed to staff room and went out.

At 2pm, I had to go back to school for CCA. I told James that I needed to have lunch because I had not been eating since morning. Then at 2.30pm, Mr P told me about the procedure and protocols of the NCC group.

Now they were having a full-time rehearsal with other uniformed groups.

I was quiet bored actually because they did not even know me at all. I just watched the rehearsal since I won't be around to watch it. Then I was invited to give moral support to my students to see their silat performance.

Then I discuss with Ms L on how to improve the management of class for effective learning. She told me to prepare on topic for that class. It meant that I needed to prepare a lot of work and I did not even have any laptop in school.

I walked around and visited the guys at Soccer field. They were having a match against teachers and asked me to join. I did not bring any attire or even wish to get bullied by them.

I was about to leave when James told me that the orienteering course would end at 7pm.

7pm?????????????????????

Luckily I have his password to use the computer terminal to do some work. Ms L came and chatted with me about that rebellious class. I just laughed off her experiences with them.

Then at 6pm, james wanted me to follow him and then made an official introduction of myself to the groups. I hoped that I was being welcomed to such regimetal group which I dislike much.

Then all the secondary 3 students ( sergeants) went to NCC room because they felt embarrased to march with corporal and privates for the national day parade. This was my first time I saw the other side of James. He really, really scold those students real hard and for almost 1 hours.

Instantly, I showed respect for him. I did not think I could be on par with him.I did not have thundering voice and wit to scold people.

I am so vulgar guy.

Impressive.

then at 7pm, I managed to go back home, tired.

My first remedial with infamous class

Today is my first official day to meet thie socalled infamous class for remedial. I expected a few attendance today but they surpised me today. Only 7 people did not come for my remedial which definitely be under discipline action by the school.

I was quite surpised that they can do their work and were willing to ask questions on the asisgnment given. There were pupils which I needed to focus more attention on. I think I need to discuss certain strategies to make the positive results on this students.

At most, they are bunch of fun teenagers.

Then I went to town to meet Lily for dinner. I introduced and treated her to Esteler77 restaurant at cineleisure complex. We both ordered chicken set and had a nice haerty conversation.

Along the way, I surpised her with the birthday present. Thanks goodness she loved it.

Then we walked around the HMV for some music. I managed to buy Journey of the Sinbad DVD and thai Talompuk CD.

Anyway, today it had been uncomfortable moment of my life. While waiting for lily to come, I bound into someone whom I may find awkward to meet face to face. I just walk away.
