End of Week 1 2007
===============


A week has passed in 2007. Guess what I saw tonight? A comet! Yes! I actually saw a comet for the first time! Me, Cindy and Carol was walking towards Forture Seafood Restaurant at Bukit Timah when I looked up the sky and saw the comet. Carol immediately said "Liu Xing Yu!! Quick Quick, make a wish!" Haha... If it is true, my wish is really for my mother-in-law to recover and be able to live life back normally. When I asked them what wish they made, Carol actually made 2 wishes! Haha... Comet reminds me of this song "Bei ni qu kan liu xing yu..." by F4!










Saw something similar to this comet.

This week has been fast, cos' there were only 3 working days. 3 brand new working days, 3 days facing new faces in classes. Ok, here's what I've been doing this week.

4 Jan Thu : My longest day at work. Last year was also like that. Had the first assembly of the year and the principal talked for almost an hour to the kids about self-discipline. If they don't have that, then we, adults, will have to start controlling them. How true. When we give them privilege, they better cherish it. Or else, we will have to start controlling what they do in class and they will lose their privilege. So, kids, better be self-discipline!!! Re-inforced what the P said when I was back in class with the kids. During lunctime, I was happy to have lunch with 2 of my colleagues. Had a good bowl of prawn mee. Didn't know this Redhill market have such nice prawn mee. The soup was really thick and shiok! Thanks colleagues for introducing! After work, as usual, went to visit my mother-in-law in SGH.

5 Jan Fri : Relieved to know it's Fri! TGIF! Went work slightly earlier and was able to buy some breakfast for my colleagues. I always think buying breakfast for colleagues is such a happy thing to do! My breakfast even helped 1 colleague when she was complaining of being hungry at 3pm! She was telling this colleague JT that she was hungry and I overheard it, so I brought ang ku kueh to her. Then JT shouted "I am poor...!!" Get the joke? Went home at 3plus and started washing my pond. It was tedious man I tell you. Scoping and pouring dirty water away, filling and pouring clean water into it and arranging the big chunks of rocks in the pond! My back and legs were aching at the end of it all!

6 Jan Sat : Cindy went to meet her ex-neighbour cum childhood friend at Compassvale. Before we reached there, we went to this noodle place at Jalan Kayu for lunch and we waited more than half an hour for the wanton mee to arrived. Cindy was hungry and beginning to feel moody. Nearly had my first conflict of the year! But thank God, I bought some nice otah from a otah stall a few shops away to curb her hunger!!! I saw so many people around our table having otah and was wondering what's the big deal about it. Then I overheard this woman beside us saying it will take a long time for the mee to arrive. When the mee finally came, I must say the noodle was really good! It was bouncy and shuang kou. And they made the noodle in the shop! This shop first started in Malaysia in 1945, called He Ji.

Went home after putting Cindy down at her friend's place. Did the class name list and some powerpoint for Monday's lesson. Cindy went to meet another friend in the evening at JP. I was supposed to accompany my mum to visit my cousin who just had a heart operation but he wasn't home, so I went out for dinner with my mum. Had a nice pork ball porridge at Bukit Gombak, near Kexin's house. So tempted to sms her that I'm near her house! Haha!

The night ended badly as my beloved Liverpool crashed out for the FA Cup to Arsenal, at Anfield somemore... sobs... sobs... but then again, in life, sometime you lose, something you win. Well, kan kai dian Marcus!

7 Jan Sun : Sunday...having Monday blues... haha..nope, told myself to enjoy the Sunday and don't worry about tomorrow. Woke up only at 12plus and miss going to the morning Mass. Went out with Cindy to meet Carol for lunch. Yeah, had my Sukiyaki again, this time at Sushi Tei! Really nice interior this Sushi Tei at Raffles City. Beginning to think those who prefer Sakae Sushi really don't know what is good Jap food! Haha... Carol and Cindy went to have their hair done at Funan while I went about getting the materials needed to make the pigs for the CNY programme. Met Michelle Kok, my practicum pal from Yuhua and knew she was married! Haha... So am I! You know, she is someone whom I does meet quite often. Have you ever had someone in your life whom you always bump into? Well, MK is one of them.

Went to Forture Seafood for dinner with Carol again!! Wow, who will have the privilege of having both lunch and dinner on the same day with mykk!!! She thought she saw "Torture" Seafood Restaurant as we were approaching the coffeeshop. We had hotplate tofu, sweet and sour pork (the sweet n sour pork ribs is still better!!!), herbal chicken and cuttlefish with celery (Should be cuttlefish with 3 pieces of celery lah! So much cuttlefish and so little veggies!!!)

Ok, Man U is leading Villa by a goal now. Stupid PC can't read the bluetooth thingy and I can't upload the pictures I took with my hp during these few days, so no pictures today. May the week be smooth and my body be healthy. God bless you who is reading this.
