Saturday

Past few days have been pretty hectic.

Parent-teacher conferences, talking to my class after car washes. Spending more than 12 hours in school, returning home so late at night.

Could hardly catch my breath!

Next message is for NCC cadets:

Recently it seems to me that some of my ncc cadets feel that I'm less involved with NCC, or worse, that I've left them for dead!

This is not true! I am still of course very passionate about NCC. However, I've come to realise that I cannot be everywhere at anytime. For example, during the sports carnival, I was not the ncc teacher in-charge on duty that day, so I can't overrule any of your instructions. What I can do is just to ask around and check that you are all alright. On that day, I had my own duties, being part of the AYG/YOG main committee.

Rest assured I'll be back next term. =D Oh wait, June spec course too. =D

Next message is for my super awesome kickass class of 3-2:
Thank you all.
I have been humbled.
You all have taught me the meaning of love for your friends.
AND I DON'T MEAN THAT OTHER KIND LAH OK!
Really, thank you all for being around. I'm truly blessed with a class like this.
Not gonna mention any names, but you know who you are.

=)

Things floating in my mind

After 12 hours in the school,

here are the things on my mind, in no particular order:

Man U - argh! Why? Anyway I didn't watch it. I woke up and fell asleep. Read that Barca totally outran the midfield. They are that good, so it's no shame.

Parent-teacher conference - So tiring, but glad to have met them.

My own class - What can I say, I just love them more and more! =D

Again,
I love my job. =D

What time is it?

It's not Tiger time!

Wah new record! 740pm on a non-camping day! Still in school woohoo!

Time to go home and relax and wait for champions league final!

Just 4 more days

Till the end of Term 2.

Sorry earthlings, been really spaced out after the sports carnival, hence a lack of action here.

Today we had a level meeting to decide which students whose parents we must meet up (due to poor results), and which students are selected for achievers' tea, which will be held in term 3.

Today I also learnt a lesson the hard and painful way,
which is to not take anything for granted.

Ah well.

Tomorrow I'll be following some sec 1s to the Singapore River.
Hardly in the mood for anything now. Shall just check some emails and log off.

Ciao.

See you at CCAB!

Sports carnival tomorrow!

See you all at CCAB!

This next message goes out ESPECIALLY to my beloved class:

I'll see ALL OF YOU at 730am! Don't disappoint me! I'll be looking forward to seeing your faces and taking your attendance. =D

-mr ng


Remember to drink lots of water tomorrow. You might want to apply some sunblock too.

Have fun!

Oh no.

My right leg looks worse than this.




Argh. Now I'm really afraid. Time to see a doc.

Stop killing yourself, Mr Ng

Argh.

Question of the day: A person's right achilles tendon is totally swollen, and hurts.

What does he do?

Answer: Go play basketball.

Argh.

Now it totally hurts even more. I need to rest so I can take part in the Olympics Games day on Thursday! Win points for Tenacity! Win points for my class! Yeah!

Stop killing yourself, Mr Ng.

If you have read this and you see me in school, can you please tell me that. Thank you.
(Please don't say that in front of other teachers though. They will be like ?!?@#!?

=p

What do you guys think about it?

Is the photographer 'kaypoh', as in, poking his/her nose into other people's affairs, or is it good that he/she is 'publicly shaming' this couple.

Is this couple behaving appropriately? Is there anything wrong? What are your thoughts on PDA - Public Display of Affection?

Use the 'comments' tab at the end of this post to share your thoughts. =D

Done.

At a little after 1pm, I finally finished all my marking.

I will still have to look through the sec 4 scripts again to see where I can squeeze out a couple more marks for students.

On monday I need to give a 1-2minute reflection kinda presentation to all staff about Public Service Week.

Hmm. Wonder what I should talk about...

The past hours

Greetings Earthlings.

There is a story about this teacher, who has no life. Let's find out what he's been up to the past few days since the exams started.

Step 1: Marking.
Step 2: Eating.
Step 3: Sleeping.
Step 4: Shitting.
Step 5: Repeat step 1.

Oops sorry that was a bit crude. =p

Anyway, this teacher is very proud to say that he has ALMOST finished all his marking for the mid year exams! He will aim to finish before the day starts tomorrow.
Tomorrow is marking day for teachers. He hopes to go back to school to slack and do his own things while other teachers are still marking. (not laughing at them. Each has own style.)

The past day:

Went home late. Dozed off at 1230am, woke at 230am. Marked all the way till 630am before leaving for school. Watched Man utd come from behind to beat Wigan 2-1.

Morning: Invigilation till 9am. Back to office. Short nap. 945am YOG meeting. Around 11am started marking again. Kept dozing off. Marked more. Around 2pm....

WENT KTV!

Haha. Crazy.

Back at home again.

Btw I've marked all my SS students' scripts. Ok lah. Sec 4s should be doing much better lor I feel.
Sec 3 Express: -_- Gave me only one factor for SEQ. What is this man. Don't be tricked by the question.
Sec 3 NA: Not bad =p

Kk... less blogging, more marking.

Will share some SUPER HILARIOUS Letters (sec 1 letter writing) next time hahaha!

Wolverine rocks my socks

Awesome movie.
And that's the most exciting thing I've done in awhile!



Both my achilles tendons hurts after I play soccer / go for a run.
Argh. Is it time to really go see a chinese doc? Or physio?


Meanwhile, everyone take care of themselves. Staying home is the safest.
