C is for cookie monster

All right…so the p2 boy i blogged about the day before…he actually drew a cookie monster yesterday during art lesson, and on the back of the paper…he wrote: “to mr tang from 2H jinyi” and gave the drawing to me…..haha…and according to the art teacher he refused to hand in to her…hehe….well…it isn’t exactly the cookie monster….it’s actually a monstrous looking figure and some cookies around it…but i think that’s really something for this boy…

anyway i will take a picture of it when im free and post it here….ciao~

Tell me how to get to sesame street

All right, so amidst the fact that iam facing my quarter century + 1 years old crisis…i have to share this piece of good news to all my readers…

My P2 boy, who is intellectually slower than the rest danced to himself today and finally spoke a proper sentence in English. Okay, it may sound weird but this is really an achievement for him and me. And I discovered that he loves sesame street.

Basically i was having PE with my P2 pupils and i was getting them to do some fundamental movements and basic gymnastics…so i had some background music, namely sesame street songs and spongebob squarepants. For this lesson, he participated actively (in his context) and when i called the class back for some questioning, he was behind the entire class dancing to himself. The background music at that time was cookie monster’s C is for cookie. I was really surprised that he did that but that’s also how i found out he loves sesame street.

So after that, i talk to him a lot about sesame street and during dismissal when i was bringing him to the gate, i sang the cookie monster song to him – “C is for ….” he replied cookie and shortly after added in “monster”. WOOTs…haha..then i asked him what colour is cookie monster, he replied blue. Then i asked him about Elmo, and he replied red. I was totally amazed…..and after that, he added in on his own, “Big bird is yellow.” I was so amazed and elated. It’s just a feeling that i cannot describe.

A teacher’s joy….i guess….

Quarter century old + 1

So im quarter of a century + 1 years old…..yeah…and this 2 songs describe my life life story so far….enjoy….

Some guys have all the luck

No woman no cry

Pride

Hi..basically reached home not long ago and am resting now while doing a little bit of work…trying to get warmed up…probably start some serious business after this post…

went to youtube and search for this j-drama, pride, again…watched it before but the ending is so deeply entrenched in my mind…i mean it would probably be the same for anyone who watched the entire series…the ending is just so touching and emo…haha…anyway..posting it so i can watch it every now and then…haha…

im probably going crazy…

Moody Tango

Tango is moody and he doesn’t know why. Perhaps he knows it just that he doesn’t want to blog about it…..or maybe he might just put it in a private post….

Perhaps it’s the songs that he is listening to….should listen to more techno perhaps….

Yah…you can call this emo-ing..don’t exactly know what it means but i guess it feels this way…

Perhaps i should understand things first before being too frank and expressing my opinions…

Ya…perhaps perhaps perhaps…

Beep Beep…a pleasant surprise

Hi~~~ so im back blogging again. Anyway, went for my night class today and……we did beep test for today’s lesson. Basically, it’s a test to measure a person’s cardiovascular fitness.

Actually i did this test 8months ago when i was still in nie. It was during this fitness and conditioning module. that was my first time doing the test and i would say i did quite well….i managed to hit stage 12-3, which is actually fit enough to play in the s-league….haha…but the aftermath sucks….no feelings in the legs, heart pumping like siao, whole body like jelly and can’t stop panting for at least 30mins….

Anyway…i was quite excited to do this test again…cos i have not been running regularly…basically i stopped running after i graduated from nie…most of the time i chased after balls…either with my feet or a racket. anyway, the group of us, pe teachers did the test together….we were all wearing the PESS t-shirt and everyone in the class know that we are PE teachers…so there was actually some pressure to perform.

HAHA…luckily we didn’t disappoint….we were the last group to drop out and simply we outlasted everyone…we did the PESS t-shirt proud and prove our worth as PE teachers…haha…we don’t just stand there and blow whistle…we have substance one..don’t play play….as for me..well…of course i deteriorated…stopped at stage 11-5….didn’t want to force myself to continue..simply because there was no reason to do so…and i didn’t want to ‘relive’ the horrible feeling after the test…but still it sucks…. 

Anyway…class was dismissed slightly earlier as everyone was shagged…no one is able to continue with the lesson…so went for dinner with shiren….and headed back home….but reflecting…it seems weird that things fall in so nicely…like im so busy with schoolwork then my night class ended earlier and there is no homework for this week…..so it’s really a plesant surprise i must say….

Tango is as busy as a bee

Alright, so term 4 is here….it’s a super busy and intensive term. So many things to do, remedial and enrichment and so many deadlines to meet. Apart from that, i have a some school projects and personal commitments as well.

The school’s mid-autumn festival celebration is finally over. It ended last fri and i was actually asked to be the emcee. Well, things were going okay during rehearsal and all but when the day was nearing, Murphy’s law came in as well. Firstly i was down with flu and sore throat on thurs and started to pop panadal cold relief and strepsils till fri, 2 hours before the celebration. Then as i were preparing, i realised i misplaced my script….and had to photocopy my partner’s. Ironically, i found my own script after the whole celebration ended….classic example of murphy’s law.

Anyway i only had half tank of energy throughout the celebration…luckily my partner was exceptionally “hyper”. It sort of balance off. The next day, sat, went to play tennis with lap yin and shiren…miraculously,  i recovered completely after that game of tennis…woohoo….well perhaps tennis is my medicine…and it can’t be helped also…last sat was the only day i exercised for the whole of last week. Perhaps my body’s missing some action.

Talking about shiren, well…on tuesday he asked me a question, which for the first time i couldn’t answer. I was dumbfounded because i honestly have no idea as well. Basically, we were heading home after our night class and dinner…then he asked me, “what kind of life are we going through?” perhaps it was also because we were at the topic of our further education and nie’s crappy system, which probably sparked off that question in him. Anyway i couldn’t answer him and the question also left a big question mark in me. Can’t see the light yet but im optimistic….there’s a reason behind but probably i have yet to realise it….

Oh yes…one more thing to blog about. I went to “service” my teeth today and the dentist told me im about to go into the last phase of my orthodontics. Woots….haha….the “gadget” has been installed on my teeth..and probably he’s going to activate it on my next visit, then i will finally be at the last phase. Well, can’t wait for the whole process to complete and move on to wearing the retainer. Hopefully, i can go into wearing the retainer early next year.  

Anyway im extremely loaded with things to do but im still blogging away here…hmmm…going to sleep liao what..blog a while cannot meh…

Lappie

Forgotten to blog about this. Recently my laptop fell sick. It went crazy as and when it liked without any signs or pre-warnings. I had enough of it and finally sent it to a “doctor”. Now it has “recovered” and working well once again.

However, this is the first time it fell sick in 2years. What a tough fellow. Perhaps i should reward it with a long service award.

Hmm…..
