KATA seminar

Wow, i went for a kata seminar last thurs-sat.. 2 Japanese sensei came down and taught us some katas.. Well, i must say that i am really old.. CAnt remember the movements at all.. Out of the 5 katas, i only know how to do 2 well, the other 3 is horrible.. Even Sensei Francis tease me and said i never train for too long and my standard dropped so much.. I also dun wanna be like that.. I jus have no time to train.. And gg down for training right after school is so tiring.. Mentally so tired, how to learn new kata?? Sat was a full day course, i nearly died of exhaustion man.. It has been so long since i practice kata for hrs straight..
Now my muscles are still aching!! haiz.. But still, the time was well spent.. I am begining to get back my passion for karate.. Think i might want to go tanglin early this thursday to practice the katas before training..

Nearing the hols

Finally, the sep hols are coming.. Though it's not a very long break, however, it's better than nothing.. Without any break is mentally and physically tiring.. A lot of things to be done in a short span of time..
Last week was a bad week for me, i was always scolding my p2 and p5 classes.. Last friday, i even cried in the toilet after scolding the p5 class.. I felt very useless.. I blame myself for them not listening to my lessons.. The reason is simple, my lesson is boring.. ANd i do admit it.. I told shang this incident and he actually scolded me for crying again.. He asked me to be stronger and stop being so emotional.. I am trying very hard to be strong, but sometimes, i just feel very vulnerable and i jus hope that i can let off my steam by crying.. It's very hard to explain why i am feeling so low and sad.. Cuz not many ppl know of my personal problems.. School is just 1 part of the stress i am feeling now.. Today when i was marking the p5 books, I saw Ruiqi's note to me.. She appologized to me.. I think by scolding the ppl who disrupts the class and ignoring the rest is very unfair to the good gals.. Waste too much time concentrating on the problems..
I bought a book recently "whale done".. It's about fostering positive relationship.. I think by looking at the results of my 2 classes, my approach for term 3 is a mistake.. They are not improving at all.. So now, i must read the book and try to apply the principles in my class.. Hopefully, things will turn for the better in term 4..

must love dogs..

wow.. 1 of the best shows i watched in the past 2 months.. A nice romantic flick.. A simple story of 2 simple people who fall into a simple love relationship.. It's just the work of fate that brings 2 persons together.. If u are meant for each other, somehow or rather, u will be together.. Courage, love, forgiveness, trust, humour is wat i learn from the show.. the courage to face the person u love when u did something wrong, forgiving that person u love that she can and will fault again but trust that she will go back to u eventually..

P.s.: actually i am now in a dreamy state cuz it's already almost 3am in the morning and i just finished marking some compos.. so if i seem a bit off, i am off... cuz i dun really understand what i am writing up there.. if u do, good for u!! hee hee.. think ai pei and sharon might be the only ones who know what i am talking abt... hee heee... gg to zzzz now..

Mindless Rambles..

Today i was on mc for the day.. Simply can't bring myself to go to work.. I think the tiredness is really taking a toll on my body.. I was never so weak.. Falling sick so often nowadays.. esp headaches.. I really hate it..
Tmr is the PSLE Oral and i will be going to Rosyth.. Let's hope that everything will go smoothly with no hiccups..
After that, sharon, denise and me will be going for lunch.. Hmm.. Maybe can meet shang to go and get gareth's birthday present after that.. Wow.. seems like tmr will be a very busy day for me..
Was talking to Zhang Yong 2 nites ago.. He is a real freak.. Imagine someone who's in singapore for almost 7-8 yrs and he still haven really been ard singapore.. During poly time, he's already slugging at home.. Now, when he's working, he's still rotting at home.. Forever at home.. Other than home and workplace, he knows nowhere... My goodness.. Been trying so hard to force him to come out from his shell, but he simply wont budge.. ARGH... I haven met him for abt 3 years!!! 3 years woh!!!! But at least he calls lah.. so still not so bad.. At least i know he's still alive and kicking.... haha.. I am very mean lah.. THat's wat i always tell him too.. So i am not talking behind his back.. I told him to call me frequently to let me know that he's still alive.. hee.. and he very ting hua.. ok.. think i will drag him out one of these days.. i really cant recall his face leh!!

P5 Camp

Phew.. P5 camp is over.. Overall, it was a good camp.. The kids had fun and so did I.. The first thing i knew when i stepped into camp christine was, hey! I met Kuan Ping there!! He called me and i was so shocked to see him there.. haha.. He was 1 of the instructors.. But he's not the instructor for my group.. So too bad.. But we did manage to catch up.. Hmm.. Really miss the days of Sports Camp! It was so much fun!! Every one was so "garang" and "siao on" there..
But I was still glad that my group manage to be quite cooperative in the end.. Luckily.. Cuz i really dun like to see students quarrel with each other like spoilt brats..
The games they played were quite good.. But i still think that a 2 days 1 nite camp is not enough for the children.. It should be at least 2 nites.. Then they will have more time to really bond and get to know each other.. And i can know them too.. Till now, i still cant remember their names..
Sleeping in the same lodge as Mrs Fernandez is a great benefit!! haha.. the kids fall asleep and kept their mouths shut 5 mins after lights out.. HAHA.. If it was me alone, i think they will not sleep that fast.. and maybe hor, i will be the one playing with them!! OOops.. hee hee.. but still, i am thankful that i manage to catch some sleep..
The next morning after breakfast, i kana sabo by 1 of the instructors to sing for the group.. Hee hee.. It was quite a good fun though i wasn't really prepared for it.. So i just sang a verse or two to entertain them.. hee hee.. i am a good sport, aren't i? haha.. It was a pity that none of the trs were my kakis.. They are there really just to see.. I was the only one who will shout cheers with my group and played games with them.. So in the end, i din really dare to show my real crazy self esp when Mrs Sim came for the campfire.. haha.. Hmm.. But luckily they were there too, cuz they are the ones who will always check that things are in place and stuff like that( i dun think i would want to do that.. hee hee)..
Hopefully, if i do have to go for another camp next yr, let the trs who go be the ones who are more siao on!! Then we can all go and enjoy ourselves there!!
