this week is really passing by very quickly.
was happy about it till today.
had a bad day today.
hectic and it just affected me badly.
my day started off bad by the fact that i woke up late
and had to cab to school in order to reach by 7.20am
the moment i reached school.
the fact that i saw my name on the relief board with a whole chunk of relief
totally turned me off..
i was told yesterday to cover for a teacher for just 1hr
but it turned out that i had to cover her for 3hours today
and on top of that i had 1hr of relief.
this wasnt the worst.
i left the staffroom at 9am for class..
but the thought that i am coming back at 10.30am for my recess break kept me going
BUT..
at 10am.. i was being called down to the general office in the midst of my lessons
reason being, a parent wanted to see me and she isn't very nice about it.
left the class at 10am..
headed down to see the parent..
issue surfaced, i talked to her and tried to clarify myself for about 30mins
but she wasnt pleased..
she still bear the thought that i punished her daughter for nothing
so she wanted her daughter to come down to clarify as well.
fine, i called for her daughter..
and in the next 30mins or so, her daughter came up with 2 other stories
which doesnt tally with the one she told her mum.
after 1 hours of clarification..
she decided that she will put a stop to this matter cos she realised her daughter..
was at fault and aint telling the truth.
feeling a strong gust of unjust, i patiently explained and clarified..
despite the mum's unreasonable accusation and raising of voice..
i kept my cool and i'm surprised how i can still put a smile and continue to listen to her
and do my clarfication..
i must say i am proud of myself for this..
so with the session.. my recess break was being forgo..
went back to the staffroom at about 10.50am.. the FT of that girl talked to me
and she said ask me not to put to heart cos this isnt the first time the girl did this..
and she even thanked me praised me for handling the parent&issue well..
time was precious.. because i had to rush to class again at 11am..
class from 11am-12nn.
i went to class heavy hearted, hungry and irritated
i was totally affected by it!
watched the clock ticked and i kept thinking why isit passing so slowly
finally when 12nn came, i left the class without second thought
headed to staffroom, and thank god for good colleagues.
they got me a sandwich and i ate it! :)
right after that.. phone beeped
and i had to run errands for the teacher i was covering
and that took me a while..
the next time i returned to the staffroom was at 12.45..
and my relief is at 1pm!
i was utterly pissed..
breaks are being disturbed once again.
so in conclusion..
i only had 15mins of break today!
and had to leave school right away for a workshop at RMPS.
thank god it ended earlier this year.
bad day today.
but good thing tmr is the last day!
holidays, i need you!
through what happened today..
i learnt alot..
keeping my composure and cool in times like this..
is one of the best thing i ever mastered..
credits must go to GV.. for training me while i was put to face unreasonable patrons
and sometimes colleagues.
hoping for the best for now...

another week is over.
leaving with 2 weeks to school holidays
and i totally cant wait!
gotten my iphone (paid by mr.D) :)
reason being, he was tempted by me as well
and he decided to get one too...
so we made a agreement of getting it together..
but i pay for his and he pay for mine..
as part of the advanced anni present for 2years!
very random and silly but its fun! HAHA!
so yes, it was first itouch and now iphone.
but we both agreed that no matter what, we wont sell or give our itouch away
cos its beautifully personalised :)
anyway. attended KHIM's Royal 21st on saturday
awesome. something different.
21st at Mind Cafe.
its cool to be playing board games at a party! :)
glad she liked the idea of holding it at Mind's, i suggested the idea to her! LOL!
yesterday was spent with mr.D
had awesome long john silver's breakfast with him!
i had this craving for their breakfast on saturday night
and he said we will have it then.
woke up super early on a lazy sunday
but its feels good, the day seemed so fruitful
after breakfast, we headed down to Plaza Sing
to get the case for our iphones
and mr.D being mr.D..
he obviously take his time to look for the best
and yes, after much consideration.
he decided on a carbon fibre case..
which is said to be the thinest and lightest..
and somewhat durable as well.
so yupp, we both got the same..
his is a black one and mine is a silver one!
apparently it only has got 4 colours (matt black, glossy black, gold and silver)
silver is classified as limited edition! LOL..
but its expensive..
the case is 79bucks for one!
and we got the protector as well..
and it amounted to 193bucks for 2 cases and 2 screen protector.
he paid, and i felt bad about it :(
he is back in tekong now!
waiting for his return :)
byeeee!
love love

weekend was awesome, though i missed HIGH's outing!
not like i did something out of the norm or something fantastic
it was just another weekend lazying around, with people i love
it was mother's day
and hence both saturday and sunday's dinner
were spent at different family..
had mother's day dinner with my family on saturday
reason being sisters thought that mr.D had to book in on sunday night..
so no actual day celebration, but dinner was still good :)
and mr.D and i went for a midnight movie at11pm
spent some time over at sis's place, and as usual..
with mr.D and the girls around, they keep each other company..
and i was neglected! =X
the girls always have so much fun with mr.D
all his funny tricks and stuff...
caught iron man 2.
it was mediocre. but entertaining enough.
watched it at LOT1, and hence i suggested to walk back since its not too far a walking distance back to mr.D's place
and this silly boy of mine gave me the exact reply i gave him 2 weeks back!
cos 2 weeks back, we caught bounty hunter late at night too, and we had to cab
and the conversations went like this..
TWO WEEKS AGO
Y: ok, tickets booked. movie at 11.30pm, Jurong Point
D: why JP? Lot1 la?
Y: no show timings for that, why cannot be at JP?
D: go Lot1 then we can take a stroll back :)
Y: why? trying to be romantic isit?!
D: yup, can or not?
Y: too bad, tickets booked
SATURDAY:
Y: movie tonight at Lot1, 11pm
D: okay..
Y: we walk back tonight k, save cab fare
D: why? trying to be romantic isit?
Y: *STARES*
D: haha, okay la. kidding, whatever you say. :)
sometimes, he really got a way to irritate me.
but i love him still! :)
never fails to make my day.
sunday night was spent dinnering with mr.D's family
for mother's day as well as a belated birthday dinner for his mum..
it was quite an impromptu dinner..
as mr.D doesnt have to book in yesterday..
cos he needs to go back to TEKONG for 10days, starting today!
so he had to report to ferry terminal today instead..
thank GYM, that he is able to book out and not stay in 10days straight!
cos intially, it was told to them, weekends burnt.
a 10 day outfield at tekong, but now its outfield and lectures :)))
and something good happened this weekend!
i finally managed to head down to IKEA..
for meatballs and chicken wings!
it's been almost a year i last had them!
meatballs + chicken wings = love!
HAHA!
busy week ahead..
but i'm cool for it! :)
alright..
bye all!
take care in tekong..

second entry within 2hours.
i thought it would be nice to pin this down..
because it's always nice to read something positive than negative.
was feeling stressed and mentally drained just moments ago.
and even days back. that explains my previous 2 entries.
and like i mentioned. i'm thankful for people who are around me.
this time round, same thing happened. :)
just minutes after i blogged the previous entry.
my phone beeped. a message came.
and it was from mr.D
it's always so heartening to receive messages from him when he is in camp
despite being busy, he will take every free time to just text me.
message says..
D: Darling, what are you doing?
Y: (started telling him how i felt)
and moments later, his replies were words of encouragement as always
and it really made me feel better.
on top of that..
another special someone was online, and i chatted with her..
yup, she is my ROOMIE - wendyLU!
really missed her alot!
chatted with her, and she made me feel better as well.
thank you! :)
home, just had a good cold bath
it really made me more relieved.
checked my phone, messages :)
and its from mr.D and HIGH's daddy!
HIGH's daddy: HIGH yanqi. Go Go Go, you can do it! :)
*thanks daddy, you made my day! :) *
i figured, that there are more HAPPY things for me to think about than those SAD ones.
so i'm gonna put on a smile and do whatever i needed to in school.
CHEERS!
bye all! :))

T2W7 and it spells STRESS.
for the kids as exams are coming
and for me as well.
reason being..
I AM SERIOUSLY WORRIED that i cant finish what i need to finish
was only being told TODAY that i have to complete this, this, this, this and etc
how on earth am i supposed to finish so many things when exams starts next week.
technically, Math paper is on thurs.
so i do have, 1 week more to teach.
BUT, official exams starts on Tues
and that leaves me with only TOMORROW, FRIDAY and MONDAY.
with only 6 periods left. how am i going to do wonders?
i dont understand why you only come and inform me today
i will do my best, if i cant finish.
all i can say is.. i'm sorry.
i seriously hate all this last minute workload
and all the after school duties and activities.
my life seriously doesnt just revolve around you.
even though i know, it plays a very important part to how my future will be.
i dont mind doing the extras or doing more
but at least, advance notice please..
and maybe a little more appreciation helps as well.
and seriously, i dont understand why do people have extreme characters
some can be so magnanimous and unselfish
but some are the total opposite.
should i count myself lucky that i am asked to tag with the total opposite.
sometimes, it is not that i want to be part of it but at least have the courtesy to offer/ask
i have zero knowledge what i've done that resulted in this kind of treatment from you.
well, no offence though.
just think about it.
my contract is somewhat being extended due to YOG.
that means no break and longer stay in the school.
NIE's starting on the 30th aug, and last day for us in school is 29th aug.
where our contract were supposed to end on 27th july, 1 year from the date we entered.
how nice.
just came back for staff meeting.
examination matters.
and of course includes invigilation duties.
saw my name...
and i was scheduled to invigilate the SAME CLASS for 5periods straight right on the first day of exams..
that means, start of a paper to end of paper (7.45am-10am)
wonderful isnt it. i guess i need to perk myself up so i wont fall alseep during the invigilation.
i know its pointless for me to complain. sigh.
well, maybe i should quote from khim..
and that is 'try to find a reason to smile in every setback'
is hoping the week will end quicker.
bye.
is missing you dearly.

it's been some time i last updated.
anyway, things wasnt too good for me the last few days
i felt as though i screwed alot of things up.
but thank GYM for people like yongxin who were there to listen
and mr.D as well.
mr.D was having his leave for the last 6days or so
but instead of spending time with him, i messed things up
was kind of in a very emo state the last few days..
due to the letter that hasnt arrived and family issues
and perhaps pms as well!
i was being very tempremental and i started to throw trantrums at everyone
especially mr.D :(
but instead of being pissed at me..
he stood by my side and travelled up and down from his place to mine..
just to keep me company.
i'm thankful that i have got him.
things got better over the weekends
it was longer 'emo-ing' at home but i was out with mr.D
caught a late movie on saturday night - ip man 2
and it was awesome.
and yesterday was spent at the neo's residence
every sunday is just a lazy sunday with him at his place
for he needs to book in later in the night
we had a random conversation..
it all started with i was tired and i napped.. and when i was awake..
the conversation went like this..
D: my dear, do you realise that my bed is a queen sized bed?
Y: ya... why?
D: then why do you always have you sleep so near to the edge?
Y: am afraid you dont have money to get a queen sized bed in future...
(i seriously have no idea why i replied that, perhaps i was still in the zzzzzzzzzz mode)
D: dont worry, i will make sure i get a queen sized bed for us no matter what :)
Y: :) (and his reply brought a smile to my face)
he always have a problem with me sleeping near to the edge of the bed
because he thinks that i will have a very high chance of falling off the bed
and so, he will ensure that there are extra pillows by the side..
or he will constantly ask me to move in.
silly boy i have :)
anyway.. dinnered at his place with his parents and sis :)
and we (mr.D, his sis and me) were joking that we are consuming too much carbo for the day!
reason being, we ate roti prata with curry for breakfast..
then lunch, we had bee hoon with curry cooked by siti..
and dinner, its curry again but now with rice!..
i never had so much curry in a day before...!
but we all loved the steamboat curry that siti cooked, always :)
no work today, and it sets my monday blues straight
exams are coming for the kids
and i'm equally worried.
i need to finish the syllabus and make sure they do well.
it's gonna be a busy week ahead
with oral exams and meetings after school. BOOHOO!
alright, time to go.
still waiting for the letter. please come soon.
i love you, mr.D
