Half Dead Post

Back again after a long time.. haven't exactly been very busy I must say, but that's coz I've been slacking I guess.. lots of work piled up for after CNY but just can't get into the mood to begin.. haven't really been in a blogging mood too, as is obvious.. just no inspiration, or anything worth blogging about..

hmm.. had the second session of LTE (Language Teaching Experience) this afternoon, was quite an enjoyable session todae as well, even though I didn't teach again.. but the kids in general were good, responsive as well.. oh well, let's hope they stay that way for the next two sessions..

heard that practicum posting is coming out tmr.. not too sure how accurate that is, but doesn't really matter to me that much.. any school will do I guess.. how different can they be? but then again, wouldn't mind going back to ZHSS as well.. really had an enjoyable time there, or at least, I think I had an enjoyable time there.. not sure if the students enjoyed my lessons though.. =P

CNY's coming, this Saturday is CNY eve, so hmm... "Gong Xi Fa Cai" to all? ya, guess so la.. hahs.. ciaoz!!

Short short semester

one week of this short sem has flown by, helped by the fact that there's already been 2 holidays in the first 10 days of 2006.. seems like everything is moving so quickly and days are just flying pass.. lots of assignments again, but then again, what's new?

been attending a module that explores philosophy of education through films, and it's really kinda interesting, what with watching a 30min clip of some movie for the first part of the lessons.. so far we've caught 15, Lord of the Rings, and also Dead Poets Society.. not bad at all.. offers a different perspective to the way I approach films, seeing them in a totally different light..

hmm.. that's about all there is to say about sch I guess.. amazing that I even found something interesting to talk about.. on a lighter note, CNY is coming soon, and as usual, my family's busy with the mass production of pineapple tarts.. haha.. even I was forced into slave labour, but hmm.. it's kinda interesting I must say..

weather's been, hmm.. fan-tastic, cool and all, and knowing me, I would rather be soaked by rain than drenched by perspiration, so well, itz good for me.. only thing bad is that people fall sick easily, so well, do take extra care, keep warm, and stay healthy!! =)

A new year!

it's the beginning of a new year again, and it's back to the books, for the next 7 weeks at least.. following that wld be practicum and that's going to be a big one for me, for anyone here.. but before all that, there's still 7 weeks of lessons, and guess it's going to be one big rush all over again.. sigh..

the past year has been.. well.. don't really know how it was now that I think about it.. can't say there were many ups or downs, probably juz normal.. started working, seriously working I mean, and really do miss the times back in NUS where the big group of us slacked away outside the LT.. whether there were lessons or not, we were always there, gaming away, having the time of our lives..

oh well, thatz over and done with, so it's time to move on I guess.. yepz.. =) have a great start to the new year!!
