The Pigs Attack

Following the Swine Flu hitting lovely Earth fast and furious, all of us are on our toes. I just talked to my aunt who persuaded me to take my flu vaccination to protect myself on a very minimal basis. The piggies have been working so hard that our scientists are still working in their pantries to figure out a piggy vaccination.



My dear students, please remember to bring your thermometers (ODT) to school every single day as mass temperature exercises may be carried out anytime during such a high-alert period. Moreover, a formal temperature taking exercise would be carried out on coming Monday, 4 April 2009, during reading period.

When cute lil' pigs turn Nasty

I understand that some of you are not aware of how deadly this virus is, thus you may still be fooling around and not taking this matter seriously. Go read it up. Google it. Then you will be surprised at the severity of the situation now!

Meanwhile, take care of yourself and make sure you down loads of fluids. The weather is suffering terrible mood swings of late. One moment it's sweltering hot, the next moment torrential downpours take us by surprise. If you do fall sick, please see the doctor and don't come to school! It's a very sensitive period... We don't wanna cause too much anxiety, right?

Let's pray hard that the situation doesn't get any worse... ...

Self-Declaration

Tonight, I shall declare it as No Marking Night!

Thus I will indulge in multiple entries and random ramblings! (: Oh, and probably some senseless tagging... :P

Tomorrow's Labour Day and ironically, we gotta labour on labour day. You guys gotta see how much marking teachers bring home today.

"Mark Mark Mark" shall be our Motto.

For you guys, "Mug Mug Mug" shall be it for the meantime...

考试怕怕？

年中考试即将来临。



老师最近加紧脚步，马不停蹄地与大家做复习。复习应用文格式与要点，作文须知，阅读理解答题技巧，并且也要大家整理文件夹。

有些同学很积极，非常配合老师，将资料都带齐，真的很感谢你们。尤其是2－2的同学们，老师谢谢你们都很听话地去买文件夹，但是记得明天将所有讲义都带来，放进文件夹内。其他同学们，若果你仍然还没有准备或找到你们的讲义，请赶紧去整理出来或找朋友借来影印。

希望同学们都快马加鞭，在这几天努力学习，在考试获取好成绩，那你们有望参与 Achievers' Tea 而不是 Panel Meeting!

MYE is fast approaching!

I have been doing revisions with all of you, on the format of informal letter writing, points to note when writing essays and comprehension techniques. Also, we've been doing filing and I'm glad to note that some students are very vigilant and conscientious in their work. I especially thank 2-2 for cooperating very well with me to have brought all your files. However, please remember to bring the notes tomorrow so we can file them in accordingly. As for those who haven't prepared your files, please do so asap so as to prepare for the annual file check.

I hope all of you buck up and do well for the MYE so you would be attending the Achievers' Tea instead of the Panel Meeting! All the best!

Laughter's the best medicine

Yesterday, I was walking down the stairs while J was making his way up. We exchanged greetings and he commented, "Pretty in pink uh?"

I looked up and went, "Ah?"

He left a sheepish grin and said, "Nah."

Well, I heard clearly what he had previously said and so I replied,

"I heard that..."

*both of us laughed*

"I like that!"

*both of us laughed harder*

A very short conversation, but laughter aplenty.

I love moments like this. Simple and yet so refreshing.

(:

About Love 爱

爱是很奇怪的东西。

会让你神魂颠倒，会让你小鹿乱撞，会让你心烦意乱，会让你甜上心头，会让你痛心疾首。

无论你处在什么阶段，爱仍是很美好，很奇妙的东西。

这两天，听闻两种消息，有苦苦涩涩的，有甜甜蜜蜜的。

我只希望，有情人终成眷属！

To Kelvin: Hi dude, how're you and her now? I hope things are better... That day when I saw you with your friends, my comment "Congrats" wasn't meant to be an insult. I meant "Not again"... Things happen for a reason. Find the reason. Fix it. May things work out... (:

To Andy (Lau): Hi Crapper, I'm really happy to hear about you and my penguin. Take good care of my penguin or I will kick you. Keep her happy, keep her safe. Feed her raisins too. 我，真的看好你们。

Long Time No See 好久不见

“好久不见”之后要接什么呢？

对，就是“十分想念”。

老师喜欢一边哈啦，一边传授知识给大家，复习复习所学的一切。＊伟大hor?＊

It's been a long time since I even came to my site...

HIIII to Kevin (yay, this is one big fan! haha...), Caifang, Yingyi and Jackson!! Gotta say hi to you guys coz i don't get to see you often!! As for my other students, aiya, laoshi will see you 3-4 times a week, so no need to specify name right? :P

Thanks for dropping by now and then to keep the conversation going.

Anyway, I really had been terribly busy.

First there was SYF, which took up many weeks of my time in seeing to administrative matters, making props... Thankfully, we came back with a Bronze award, well, it's not bad for a first-timer in SYF! Congrats!

In the midst of it all, we had our chinese common tests...

Then there was Flag day where I joined three 3-3 girls on a really fun journey!

After which I administered essay tests (mock exam) and now I will have to mark until I drop!

And also in the midst of these all, I attended a concert - the Lee brothers along with Show, Jolin, Daniel, Jam etc... Not too bad gig, at least I get to see Luo Zhi Xiang and Xiao Jing Teng... Oh and Chen Xiao Dong... Haha, that made me quite happy... Tee Hee Hee... I also attended the musical "If There're Seasons". Simply mesmorizing. Any of you watched 天冷就回来? I think it's a GREAT performance So, I AM GOING TO WATCH A 2ND TIME!!

老师也会疯狂的……

好啦，下次再聊，有好多作文等着我！

同学们要好好温习功课，知道吗？

加油加油加油！

Besta All Pass-1

同学们！

请注意！

老师来当推销员了！

你是否常常写错字？
你是否觉得大本的词典携带不方便？
你是否想随时随地随手查到新词，学到更多华文词汇？

那，你又是否觉得市面上的电子词典太贵了？

机会来了！

Besta All Pass-1 原价＄４９．９０。但是，星期四　９／４／０９，介于０９３０与１４００（时间可能延长，但为了安全起见，请同学们在休息时购买电子词典！），在学校食堂，Besta公司将以特别价＄３２．９０售卖这台电子词典！

老师觉得你们应该买一台，上课时候能够用，考试时候也能够派上用场。

请有兴趣的同学们告诉家长，你们想购买电子词典，并带足够的现金到学校来！

往下看，老师会把电子词典的照片放上来！

你们也可以到　http://www.besta.com.sg/products/allpass1.html　去看看！

Dear students,

It's yelaoshi advertisement time!

*Nope, I'm not getting any commissions for this!!*

Do you find yourself using the wrong chinese characters all the time?
Do you think the conventional dictionary too bulky and heavy?
Do you wish to learn new chinese characters on the go?

However, do you feel that the electronic dictionaries are rather
expensive?

There's a chance now!

Besta All Pass-1 is an electronic dictionary approved by MOE to be used during the examinations (Paper I). The original price is $49.90, this Thursday, 9/4/09, between 0930 and 1400 (time may be extended, but to avoid disappointment, please get your dictionaries during recess time), Besta would be selling All Pass-1 at our school canteen at a special price of $32.90. That's a savings of $17!

Grab the chance! I feel that you can use the electronic dictionary in class and during exams, it's not a bad idea to invest in one now!

So students, please let your parents know if you think you need one and bring sufficient money on Thursday.

Now, let's take a good look at the photographs of the dictionary...

First up, in Silver - Classic look...

In baby blue...

& my personal favourite, in baby Pink!!

You see, your electronic dictionary can get as bubblegum cute as you want it to be!

(:

Learning is Fun!

代课

今天到3-4代课，碰到老是往这儿串的3-3同学。

-.-"" 疯了啊！上课不上课，一直过来找朋友！

但是，我还真的很想念3-3的同学... ...

:(

Today, I was having relief class at 3-4 and students from 3-3 were all over the place throughout the 1 hour.

What a crazy bunch... It's not appropriate to be running out of class all the time! Hai...

Oh well, but I really do miss my 3-3 peeps.

:(

伤

昨天，看到两位同学的手都被包成“小叮当”的手似的。

Yesterday, I saw two students whose hands were bandaged til they appear like Doraemon's... Hehe...

当然不是那么圆啦，不过，看到他们受伤的手，我不禁问：

“揍人啊？”

我知道自己很糟糕啦，不会先慰问，反而先质问。但是，看到血气方刚的男生手包扎成这个样，不得不做些许猜测！

Well, of course not as round as Doraemon's hand but once I saw the injured hands, I can't help but ask,

"Whacked people uh?"

I know I'm kinda terrible, I don't send consolations first yet I made such assumptions. C'mon, it's not difficult to associate injuries with fights right?

已经忘记Edwin说什么了，但总之不是打架，而同学们也觉得他受伤的理由很好笑。

Kevin是我在回家的途中遇到的，伤势显然比Edwin的严重（& “新鲜”！），还有些许血迹在指头上。

一问之下，才知道是“冲动”造成的伤。

唉。

照顾自己吧，年轻人！不要伤害自己，周围的人也会为你担心的啦。

I can't remember what Edwin said, but it's definitely not fighting and his friends found his reason of getting injured pretty funny too.

I met Kevin on my way home and very obviously, his injury was far more serious than Edwin's and blood stains are still visible on his fingers. Upon questioning, I derive that the reason behind the injury was "impulsive".

Sigh. Take care of yourself, treasure yourself! I'm sure there are many people around you who care for you! 

送“冲动”的Kevin一份礼物：

A gift for our impulsive Kevin:

嘻嘻，怎么样？

Haha... How's this?

＊The last I saw of Kevin, his left eye was swollen as well... =.=" One injured left hand, one injured left eye. Don't hurt your right hand too or you'll REALLY look like Doraemon!＊

Oh, and please please please take care of your hand or your injury will get infected! No point being a blind + handicapped hero right? :D

只想说声对不起

忽然想到有东西可以写。

同学们都记得我让你们写的作文《一件令我后悔的事》和中二的《爸妈，我有话要说》／课文《说声对不起》吗？u频道在6月即将播映一个取名为《只想说声对不起》的节目。

二月份在电视上一直看到《只想说声对不起》的短片。

紫色的风信子
轻声说着
“对不起！”

很多感触，很多感动。很想提笔写故事给制作单位，可是总是有股迟疑的力量拉着我。

我不懂为什么我害怕把故事打出来。一些同学们在作文里的勇气远远超出老师的。更确切地说，我几个月前已经把故事给储存在电脑里，但这些日子都不敢再启动那份文件，深怕会触及旧伤疤。

我害怕会让过往的回忆模糊眼前的一切。

我想投稿。

或许，我会。

可能，我会退缩。

不晓得。



同学们，如果你们有故事想分享，可以点击‘comments’，留下信息，或直接到　www.sorry.sg　去写故事。

我很喜欢《只想说声对不起》的广告，也很喜欢当中选用的背景音乐。轻轻柔柔的，触动我们的心。广告文案也非常细腻。简简单单几句就能引起共鸣。

（让我想到1－4班的昕依同学完成的海报，颜色，图案，都如此美妙。）



你们是不是容易哭的孩子们？

老师好奇。就拿这个广告来说吧，一听到那音乐从电视机播出，就会唤起许多回忆。那种想哭的回忆。你们年纪还小，应该无法明白／体会我的心情，对吧？

有没有人看了《海角7号》或TVB港剧《珠光宝气》？《海》和《珠》（最后一集）都让我哭得乱七八糟，所以，老师是哭包。只要能够触动心弦，都会让我哭的。。。下次再说《海角7号》和《珠光宝气》令人哭的原因吧。

扯远了。

总之，尽请期待6月份的节目《只想说声对不起》吧！我想，到时，我肯定会利用当中的故事当教材吧！嘿嘿……

1:19pm

I don't even know what to put as a title.

I'm just kind of tired and not in the mood to do anything.

So here you go.

A very nonsensical post with nothing substantial.

I really should get down to marking my four classes of zuo wen and ying yong wens.

*gosh*
