Memories with Batch 2010/2011

                                           Majlis Gemilang Iltizam 2011 with 6AOK and 6AIB

Its the time of year which I really hate. Time to say goodbye to my kids. It happens every year, coz I only have them for 3 semesters(1 1/2 years).

Its amazing how annoying they start out as Lower Six's then all the sudden they grow up, sit for STPM and leave. Sad, but thats the cycle there.... wouldnt want any of them to repeat...

Will miss them so much. Hope they turn out fine.

My prayers will always be with you and I wish all the best for STPM 2011 and your future...

A note to my students:

Assalamualaikum,

Aktiviti majlis perpisahan dan mohon restu dicadangkan sebagai acara tahunan, pelajar minta restu ilmu dgn guru. Prinsip biasa... apabila kita meminta sesuatu dr orang, orang yg memberi kena ikhlas & redha barulah ianya berkat. Rasanya semua guru ikhlas mendidik, cuma pendekatannya pelbagai. Ada yg tegas/garang, ada yg selamba, ada yg mendatar, ada yg kelakar ada dgn penuh kasih sayang. Malangnya pelajar mentafsir pelbagai, ada yg melabel guru tegas sbg jahat, tidak baik & tidak ikhlas. Maka berlakulah konflik guru-pelajar. Malah ada yg terlanjur kurang ajar dgn guru. Jd, sebelum menduduki pekeriksaan besar... ambillah peluang minta maaf dgn guru. Ini jalan terbaik...

Utk pelajar2 saya, 6AOK dan 6AIB, cikgu minta maaf klu ada terkasar bahasa & tercubit atau terkutuk... :) Cikgu minta maaf... tiada niat apa2, sekadar hiburan utk menghidupkan suasana kelas yg kdg2 terlalu kelam & suram. Itu saja. JANGAN PUTUS ASA WALAUPUN TAK PERNAH LULUS PAM SEMENJAK BERKENALAN DGN CIKGU... Peluang memperbaiki diri masih ada... walaupun last minute. Keajaiban masih boleh berlaku. Segala petua sudah habis diberi di dlm kelas...

Semoga berjaya semuanya... Amin.

To stay in Puchong, or not?

In 2002, my husband bought a house in Suria Kinrara. It was left terbengkalai for ages, and the bank stopped calling him for payments. But when we went to visit my mum in 2010, we realised the project was back on , and nearly completed.

Now, 3 houses later... he is getting the house back...but I noticed the community blog and just realised what an awful place it has turned out to be.

Its a lovely building actually, but is experiencing bad maintenance issues, slum-like neighbors who hang their clothes everywhere, Africans loitering around, and occupants association sounds a bit snooty. And then the stories about robberies, despite having guards... and that pretty swimming pool that is unfortunately growing algae....

I think I like Sandakan better. No crime. Everyone is friendly. No jam. No taxes.
No , I dont think I want to go back to KL just yet. Wait until it gets better over there.

Rent it out lah Abang. Eeeeei..... Dont want!!

Waiting for the next holiday

I've virtually grinding my ass all year long. 2 weeks to go before holidays, with much more work left to be finished before calling in the year.

I am expecting a year of hell coming in 2012...but I'm getting ready for it. Bought my own folio's (cant wait for the school issued ones). All my tutorials are i n place. Just hope the new syllabus doesnt change much. I wont be a merry person if I have to start all over again.

Today was ... interesting.  My primary obligations to work is still at a standstill... yet a superior demanded to know why I didnt come to an LDP....despite me already clocking in 9 days of courses (we only need 7). I wish people would remember WHAT a teachers core business today. That alone put me in quite a mood indeed today. FGS...I know how to handle stress by now working here. No need some fancy smancy course for it. But dude, when u expect to waste precious time that I can use to mark the tonnes of scripts (which YOU have duly and graciously assigned  to me) I'd expected some discretion when it comes to marking time. 

Remember: I've got small kids and no mum around to help me look after them when I do my work. oh, I also have more classes, and no one to bully into doing my work for me. But, I dont suppose you are the type that loses sleep over stuff like THAT right. 

A bully will always be a bully. 2011+ 5 years.... 2016. 

Breathe in. Breathe out. I can DO This. Pejam mata, celik2...and I can go.... hopefully. :/
