Welcome hols!

To welcome our 6-weeks-term-break, my uni friends and I have planned a day trip to MidValley on the 14th of Nov, which is the very first day of our term break. It was wonderful being able to spend quality time with them especially after all the theatre performances, exams and assignments. Furthermore, we have been so caught up with our uni life and our personal life that we didn't manage to spend much time together this term. So, without wasting any time, I shall let the pics do the talking as "pictures speaks a thousand words", agree?

After deciding for a long time where to eat, we finally chose Fong Lye Taiwan Restaurant as our lunch destination

Enjoyed myself today. Am looking forward to the next "gathering". Happy hols, friends!

Well, this is just the beginning. More to come!

I'm back, survived

It has been a long long time since I last updated my blog. I've been pretty busy for the past few months, four months to be specific, and I'm glad to announce that I'm finally free from all ASSIGNMENTS, TESTS and EXAMS! Woohoo! Sorry, I'm going a little crazy here now. Alright anyways, I'll be updating my blog pretty regular this hols. So stay tune for more updates. Till then, will be back soon!

We're Done!!

First of all, I'm absolutely happy for those who have just finished and submitted their THESIS today!! Well done and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

Next, I'm also happy for my course mates and myself! Finally, we're done with our very FIRST research and report assignment for Teaching Literature in ESL. =)

Early in the morning

Woke up as early as 6.40am this morning. After washing up, I head to the park for a jog. I'd almost forgotten how it feels to wake up early in the morning to jog. Usually, I'll jog in the evening (can't wake up in the morning, hehe) BUT due to the hazy weather lately, I'll have to jog early in the morning, where the air is not too contaminated yet. In fact, I personally enjoy jogging in the morning cause I won't need to put on sunscreen on my body and face. I don't quite like to apply those stuffs on my body. I just don't like that "sticky" feeling on my body.

Everyone at home was still asleep when I left for a jog. It feels weird for me as I'm always the last to wake up every other single day. Oh well, probably because today it's a Saturday. Everyone's busy catching up with their sleep, except me! Hehe.

Anyway, what a refreshing moment being able to jog and inhale fresh air early in the morning. Am looking forward to the next jogging session!

Min the Girl

Begin my day with teaching Min piano. Okay, let me introduce this student of mine once and for all.

Min is 8 years old, meaning to say, she's in primary 2 this year. She's a brilliant girl and she catches things real fast. Sometimes, before I could even finished explaining on certain concepts or terms, she'd already understood it all. Amazing.

Hence, I don't face much challenges in dealing with this wonderful girl. She behaves well, practices her piano before she comes for class, listens to me quietly and attentively when I teach, and comes for class on time. Perfect. What more can I asked from her?! Ahh, but sometimes I'd wished that she'll be a little mischievous, curious, talkative and playful. I want her to throw me with million questions. I want her to giggle. I want her speak her heart out. I want her to express herself.

But in actual fact, she's too good a girl. Too easy to deal with. Anyway, I think I should be thankful that she didn't wear me out during/after class, which is a good thing. I love her very much.

Min has been with me since Nov 2005 (she was four back then), which also marks the beginning of my piano teaching journey.

H1N1 break - Day 2

Having being deprived of sleep, I woke up at noon today. Like a zombie, I woke up feeling so blur. Argh, waking up at noon isn't a pleasant thing to do! Waking up late at 10am is still fine but to wake up at NOON is a no no to me. But I did it still. I slept through the whole morning!

Not long after I woke up, as usual, I picked Phoebe & Jo from school. Then, had my breakfast as lunch. Or I should say branch. Yeah, I had my branch.

Also helped mom with the laundry. Then, Phoebe & I decided to have sisterly time. And Alamanda we go! We managed to catch a movie and had sushi for dinner. =)

H1N1 break - Day 1

Woken up by Fen's phone call at 10am this morning. I was already awake at 8 but since today is a holiday, I allow myself to laze on the bed a little longer than usual.

It was sheer pleasure being able to sleep until 10 in the morning. Since uni resume this semester, I only had about 6 hours of sleep daily on average. Dark circles are getting darker day by day. Arghhhh!!

Therefore, being a 8-hour-sleeper, 6 hours is definitely never enough for me. And finally, thanks to H1N1, I was able to enjoy my usual 8 hours sleep ever again!

After chatting with Fen, I went online. Chat and Facebook.ing as usual. When done with chatting and Facebook.ing, I did some house chores. *back to the routine I used to have during long breaks* I was so happy being able to do some house chores. No 1, I'm happy that I can help mom with house chores and she won't need to do everything all by herself. No 2, I'd always love seeing my homey clean and tidy all the time! So, I'd always enjoy helping out with house chores!

Then, at about 2pm, met up with Cheng at Jusco CS. We both had McD for lunch and chatted a while. After filling our tummy, we head straight to the shops. We both wanted to get a pair of shoes so badly that we decided to start with foot wear shopping! We begin our journey by popping by at Vincci. To our disappointment, nothing in Vincci captures our heart. We then walked out of the shop, feeling utterly dissapointed.

Next, we head to another shoe shop, TSC & MOD, and guess what?? Cheng and I instantly had our sight on a pair of wedges! We then tried on on this pair and in the end, we both got ourselves one pair each. In the process of getting this pair of wedges, we both were torn between two colours. After a moment of contemplation, we decided to grab the blue pair. At the payment counter, Cheng said, "That's enough of foot wear shopping for the month!". *Pris giggles*

After retiring from foot wear shopping, Cheng & I went for a tea at Secret Recipe. We both indulged ourselves in a slice of Durian Cheese and Chocolate Indulgence each.

At about 6pm, we bid each other farewell. Had a great time catching up with Cheng. Hah, feeling so satisfied.
