Is there some problem with the NIE system?

I realise that some teachers that came out from NIE are really not up to standard, not in terms of their knowledge, but in terms of their characters, their way of handling things, etc.
Heard from many incidents that prove statement right.

1st case:
There is this NIE graduate who loves to take advantage of the female teachers in the particular school. What a joke! I suggest that before these NIE graduates come out, they should go through a series of personality tests, interviews, etc, before they can come out to be a teacher. COZ I believe that a teacher should have both, IQ and EQ.

2nd case:
some senior teachers do not know how to handle things/situations well. I don't know if they come school to 混日子 and get their salary or what. They simply throw all the work to the students when they are the teachers-in-charge, when the students are only a Secondary school student. what's worse is, there is this particular teacher who is a teacher-in-charge of a CCA heard the so-called news that speak badly about that student who did so much for the CCA, and scolded that student without even hearing his/her explanation. In the first place, it's the teacher's job to do most of the work, and the student is already doing it for her without even saying a word, and yet, she scolded the student saying that she did not do anything, just because she heard the news from somewhere...*clap clap clap*
if this is really what an educator is supposed to do, is there still hope for our educational system?Does she know how hurting her WORDS can be even if they weren't vulgarities?
DID she even thought of the consequences after the scolding?
the student was very hurt by her words, and the cheerful character is lost because of this teacher.

I may not be as smart as those teachers out there, but since I am able to judge things from my eyes, why can't those teachers, who are WISER. EVERYTHING THAT YOU SAY, EVERY ACTION THAT YOU DO, WILL AFFECT A CHILD'S EMOTION, UPBRINGING, ETC. Shouldn't they know that since day one?

case 3:
Teachers look down on the relieve teachers.... *sarcastic smile*
I have heard of this, teachers calling students to go out of the class for submission of work when there is a lesson actually going on, taught by a relieve teacher. Doesn't that teacher know the word RESPECT? So what if you are a full-time teacher, and the other is a relieve teacher? You don't have the right to summon almost the whole class out when a lesson is actually going on.

Some teachers treat other teachers in a friendly manner, but treating the relieve teachers as if they are transparent, and the word "MANNERS" comes in. What's wrong with giving a friendly smile to the relieve teachers? will that make you lose something? your pride? It's not some isolated cases, but it's really everytime. Well, maybe it's due to poor upbringing.


of course there are more cases that it will be tiring to mention...
I'm just worried about the education system if they are to be handled by these type of quality...
Perhaps they should set up a department for Quality Control too...haha...

Should I go?

Prof Chen Zhong has sent an invitation to us to go listen to his briefing on his projects this Saturday...
hmmm, should I go?
should I?
should I?

I dunno!!!!

*arrgghhh, running around the room like a mad woman.*

Presentation is finally over.

*phew~*

finally, the long worried presentation is over. All of us let out a sign of relief. yeah!
the presentation is successful, but that Prof is really very demanding, squeezing out faults on us, making all of us feel fearful. Well, anyway, it's over, so I shall not go think about that and should move on. And after the whole morning of suay-ness, it should give me something good rite? haha..
yar, very suay today, as usual.
With my formal dress code and heels, I walked all the way to the MRT station to realise that I forgot to bring my wallet along. So, I walked all the way back home to get it, was perspiring like mad then. And when I walked back to the MRT station, that MRT just left, and I have to wait for another 8 mins for the next one to come...arrrgghhh~
Practised my speech on MRT, you noe, mouthing out words without making sound type. And weird stares keep focusing on me. What's their problem? KPO. So when I reach NTU, the queue of the bus for 179 was so long. *shake head* Something fortunate is, I'm early...hehe...
Went to collect my replacement for my matric card, and it took me 15 mins, coz they couldn't find my details, though the newly-made card was there. So, it's another 15mins gone...
walked to Cafe Alfresco to have my lunch to realise that their power is down, so no food other than sandwiches....arrrggghhh~ then, I told myself, well, I'm already suay enough, please dun give me extra problems, esp during the presentation....
then on, everything works out fine for me...heng sia...haha...

It's my third time eating at Cafe by the Quard. Had Saba bento set...haha...my favourite fish, SABA!!! and the jap food there is really good..I enjoyed my meal there. *grin* shall go there again...

Boi encouraged me to go back Brady for FYP...hmm, I really dunno if I should. Francis had asked me a few days ago whether I wanna go back. Should I? I very scared leh. Later go back and see Kenryuu, I will faint lor..haha..no lar, maybe it will be good. Eh, I'll give a more indepth thought on that.

Now, I shall start to catch up with my long list of online lectures....

What my dreams tell about me?

What Your Dreams Mean...

Your dreams seem to show that you're very preoccupied with your fears and problems. These bad dreams indicate that you need to spend more time on your issues during the day. Your dreams tend to reflect your insecurities. You secretly want to hide your dreams from your waking mind.

What Do Your Dreams Mean?

My throat is sore.

After practising my speech for the endless time, my throat sores...argghhh~
taking a short rest now before i continue with my speech..
SICK of presentation, man...not that i'm afraid of what i'm going to say, is the Q&A session that is frightening...haiz...
hope i don't go tongue-tied..haha...*touch wood*
What stupid FRAM (ferroelectric random access memory) is having on us, the poor group members...

Idiotic Prof Chen Zhong never reply my email!!!! So rude. doesn't he know what manners are? even if he doesn't want me, he should still reply wad..idiot! btw, i'm applying for FYP lar..
Prof Tan LP replied and said she will only start her list of projs towards the end of May...arhhh, so long still...
Meanwhile, I dunno who to choose le...shall think about that after my presentation..

tomorrow will be the presentation day...after tomorrow, i'll be more relaxed?? haha...maybe..hope I will do fine...really hope i will...
what should i wear tomorrow? dress code: formal...i hate the word "formal"....well, shall go dig out all the formal shirts and pants that i have later...*headache*

argghh, throat is still sore..what should i do?

加油！

just reached home after my hectic rehearsal...
did very badly, of course...coz i have not prepared my speech, as there are some amendments to be made..
yar, i've pulled through this bad day, hoping for the better to come from tomorrow on, if He allows...
I'm getting the momentum of studying back, which i'm happy of. No more lagging please....

Should prepare my speech before i start with the series of online lectures....

A bad day.

got scolded by my mum early in the morning at 6am..

cursing me, insulting me...all in front of my sisters...
i was woke up by her noise, and couldn't get back to sleep again.
Did i do anything wrong this time?
to my whole family, yes, i'm always wrong...
it is a WRONG to get stuff for yourself. I didn't spend my $ like nobody's business, like many people out there. I think so much before I buy...so much that I'm sick of it...
i get things only when it is really cheap, and necessary..
branded good?haha...well, what is branded stuff then..if I really get them, perhaps my bank account would have already depleted long ago..
is that a wrong?
my sis could get anything from a word of mouth...me? I spend my own money...not even theirs, why should they bother? My "good" relationship with my family is the result of my mum's attitude to me..All thanks to her.

Now you see why I don't stand any position at home, even my sisters don't respect me.
I'm damn sick of explaining to them about what i'm thinking, coz there is simply NO POINT.
fine, it's all for my own good...yar, I spent too much..maybe...it's wrong to spend anything on yourself only..must always think of them..it's ok if you spend hundred over bucks if it is ONLY for them, but wrong, if it is on yourself. What's agitated me is, I dun even spend that much on myself..
Well, I learnt my lesson..
If so, then don't use the Internet wireless...don't use the laser printer...don't use my ez-link card..don't wear my clothes...don't wear my shoes...don't touch anything that I pay!!!
But i'm not so mean...
I dun mind to spend $ to get things for the family, and I don't even ask for the $ back...
why should they control my own spending, which is nothing compared to what i've given them?
shouldn't i be treated with a slight respect in front of my sisters?

Well, that's not all.
It is really bad to get scolded early in the morning, though not the first time...
and it will affect my whole day's mood and perhaps, my luck too..
I failed my quiz today...it's depressing..I studied so much, and yet I failed..
But well, a good thing is, it's over.

now, I have to start preparing my speech for the rehearsal later...
I'm sick with my life...sigh~
hardwork doesn't play an important role now, coz it doesn't even reciprocate..
alright, stop all the moans and get started..

*forced a smile on my face*

Fell sick again.

waited boi to reach home last thursday night when he actually reached at about 1am plus...
it's bad for health to force myself to stay up late when i usually don't.
So, i felt weak the next day morning...
and viruses start to attack me, coz my immunes system is in a sleeping mode...
yar, down with terrible flu..
i slept the whole afternoon, woke up for dinner,I only had soup for dinner, as i couldn't eat..drowsiness set but i still went to get ingredients for making sandwiches for saturday's trip...
when i reached home, my mind tells me only one thing, go and sleep...
bathed, and i went straight to bed..

woke up the next day, which is yesterday, and i'm ok!!! haha...thank to the miracles that sleep can do to me..i slept for more than 12hours...haha...but i've wasted the whole day sleeping, and is very behind time...all my plans went down the drain..but i still went out on saturday..haha..
after washing up, i started to make sandwiches for the sentosa trip with boi while waiting for boi to come..
boi drove to sentosa, and he really knew a lot about that place..well, he has his events there wad..so nothing special...
we went for the skyride, and we played the luge..very fun, though short. it cost $9 for the combo..haha..very worth it rite..it comes with a price too...the helmet is causing irritation to my skin, so my face is having rashes now...hope it will be ok before my presentation, next wednesday.
we walked to Siloso beach, where boi showed me the event venues...
then, we moved on to palawan beach to have our lunch..haha..sandwiches wun make you full, you see..we had our lunch at Koufu, then we walked to Cafe Islander for a drink...he knew the manager there, and we had 20% off the total bill..quite surprised, coz we never expect that..haha..saw many girls/ladies/aunties in bikinis, and some were really.......nvm...
after that, we travelled to vivocity to shop before we headed back to boi's house...
his mum cooked curry chicken, woooahh, my favourite..hehe...but i just recovered, so I ate abit only...
nothing much happened after that...
ooh, First is bottle tree park, then sentosa....what's next???

had alot of things to do...sigh~
my slides with speech....quiz tomorrow too...
thank god that MS3003 assignment is postponed to 13apr...more time for me to do...phew...
alright, a busy day for my family and me...going tomb-sweeping later...

everyone, take good care of your health, esp. with such terrible weather recently... :)

3yrs ago...3yrs later...

boi has been very sentimental...haha..
he recalled that 4yrs ago, we weren't even talk to each other in school...
3yrs ago, we were very good friends...
3yrs later, we can't live without each other...
how fate is playing its game here...
but there are still things that will never change, 3yrs ago, 3yrs later...
there are some things whereby we will try to avoid saying..some things whereby we do not wish to remember...

recently, i keep having dreams that will end up waking me in a state of shock..
i couldn't explain why...maybe my life is too busy now, that's why...
but the feeling wasn't good at all...
long forgotten memories had came back vividly in my mind...
i thought i've forgotten...why did it come back?
*let out a sigh*
hope everything will be fine... :)

this week, a student asked MS8005 lecturer whether a broken-up couple could came back to friends like before...
well, her answer is, "NO, never possible."
then she explained a lot of things, which i can't remember clearly...
the hurt, the intimacy, are all these gonna be forgotten? (according to the lecturer)
haha...well, i dunno...maybe it is never possible..but i've seen cases whereby couples ended up being very good friends...it really depends lar...
depends on how seriously you take the relationship...
depends on how easily you can let go...
depends on a lot of things..

boi is stressed, can tell even when he didn't say a word...
it hurts me a lot to see him like this..
he lost his smile again....something that i saw 2yrs ago...the innocent smile isn't there...
whenever this happens, i'm very worried...
hope everything turns out well for him.

My new friend.

A new friend had entered my life last saturday.....

Guess who?

*Tada*

Yeah, Zen Vision: M.

I'm downloading videos to watch, so that i watch them when i'm travelling to school...good idea rite?

yup, i need to study le..coz i dun wanna be the last few of the cohort...i just wanna squeeze to the middle k..hehe...

ok, i miss boi...hope he is doing fine. dun understand why i can love him so much..he is lazy, irritating, unkempt, crazy and plump..haha...but i still love him...maybe i'll love him more if he can improve on the above mentioned...*hint hint* lolz.

enuf of nonsense, carry on with my work..

Bottle Tree Park

We went to Bottle Tree Park yesterday...it's my first time there, and i'm in love with that place...the whole place doesn't look like it's Singapore.That place is good for fishing and relaxing. Oso, it's a good place for camping as there are camp sites there too..haha...BTW, if you are trying to find out where this place is, it's at Yishun, nearer to Khatib MRT station, but still have to walk a distance. I dunno how to walk there, coz boi drove. It's a place worth visiting. Heard from boi that the owner of the land had this dream of having his own land and making it into a recreational area for the public. Too bad that he could only own the land for 6yrs, after that, no one knows if the government will claim back that land..

Oh, boi said those Bottle Trees are from Australia, and are very expensive (forget how much)...so can imagine how rich the owner is by counting the no. of trees there...haha...just kidding...
Alright, enough of saying...let the pics do the talking...the place is much more appealing than my photos, due to my lousy phone camera and lousy skills...haha..

My desktop CPU sucks.

really dunno what the hell it's going on lar....
hang and hang...then suddenly can work....now it seems ok again....but sometimes still will throw tantrum a bit. It is really testing my patience. Listen to hy, I updated the drivers of the graphic card and motherboard...hopefully everything turns out ok, if not i really wanna smashed the comp le...*breathing in and out profusely*

yesterday went out for dinner with boi.
met crazy salespersonnel at marina square....keep promoting their wedding packages...argghh...
i'm a student!!!! i've said endless times, but they just wanna drag us to the seats...luckily boi insisted that we are not interested. Scary. That dangerous zone where there are a stretch of shops that sell bridal gowns.

Discussed with hy and cy regarding the graduation trip. We all agreed with Taiwan!!!! yeah, haha. Abit too fast hor, I still haven't even start my FYP, and here we are talking about the trip. Let me count, it's like 1yr plus from now. Aren't we too efficient when it comes to stuff that doesn't relate to study??? hehe. I told them that I wanna go either Taiwan, Korea or Japan...Though I went Korea before, I missed that place a lot!!! really feel like going again...hmm, I need to save some countries to go with boi too. haha. boi said he wanna go Rome for honeymoon. Eh, I dunno lar. Dun really mind, coz i do not have anything in mind too. Wait! 太离谱了..My thoughts drifted too far...haha...need to settle my immediate work first before i can day-dream till dunno where. Yup, get my thoughts organised. It's about STUDY, and STUDY only, now.

Saw ex-02S3A classmates....Sing Phang and Zi Feng today..haha...i totally can't recognise Sing Phang. He is different lar, thank god that he called my name, if not, he may think that i'm "dao"..haha..Then that Zhaohong, my proj-mate, hit my head with his stupid balloon (the balloon is gotten from somewhere in NTU lar)...asked me to go get balloon, for what? then said so loudly that I ponned MS3002 lecture, trying to announce to the whole world k...!##$%@^&!*....he is really idiotic lar. But he added fun to our sian sian group..haha. ok, one good point about our group, all very extremely efficient, Huijing, our leader, is very hardworking. Did most of the work. Yeh Lih, an ABP (accelerated bachelor programme) student, very smart and analytical. Yong Yuan, eh...dunno what to say about him, other than he always say things that confuses all of us..haha...but he is nice. Zhao Hong, the noisy one, very smart too..and very efficient, but lotsa nonsense lar. See, that's my group...We all have one thing in common, our SURNAME...hehe..the Lim Family lor... lolz~

In the afternoon, i went Watsons to get Berocca, something that will increase your performance with work. I think I desperately need one. I want my brain to be 100% alert, and it is good for health too. hehe. I'll try from tomorrow morning onwards. If it's effective, I'll recommend to you guys. :)



just now i managed to get some time sitting down at my comp and printed out the FYP stuff and looked at the profs' profiles and researches. Selected a few profs, hopefully I'm able to get either one of them. With my lousy result, it's quite hard, i know. No matter what, i'll have to give it a try still.

I decided to drag boi for a scalp treatment with me..hehe..I'm treating him at Sandstorm by Monsoon ba..coz our scalps are all very jialat type..should we go tomorrow???

my post doesn't seem to have any direction of flow. Anyway, who cares.
alright, my slides are still not yet done..I need time!!!

NOTE!

Don't ever leave your valuables (wallet, handphone, etc) on the table while eating at coffee shops/food courts, even if they are just very near you...
coz you wun know when someone else is eyeing on it and snatch it away....
i've seen cases of it...so be extra careful..

钱财不可露眼。(do i have any 错别字？too long never study Chinese le..hehe..)


ps: hope my sister will get the course she desires...hope she get the scholarship she want...

Special thanks to him.

How lovely to have a considerate, thoughtful, caring, bla bla bla, boyfriend.
i thank him for making my mum feel so touched and happy today.
i thank him for the time spared for me and my family.
i thank him for a simple dinner we had together.
i thank him for putting me first before himself.
i thank him for being my pillar when i'm helpless.
i thank him for donating generously to the needy/charities just wishing that i'm blessed.
i thank him for doting on me, my sisters and my parents.
there are plenty of things to thank him...too much to be written....

such a great guy that god gives me, shouldn't he be blessed with less obstacles in life? shouldn't he be more smooth-sailing with his work and studies? shouldn't he be given a good health? shouldn't he get what he deserved? I'm grateful...very grateful...please don't ever snatch him away from me, i will never allow, never!

pics of the day!

free gift from Watsons... :)

Way behind time

I've submitted my MS3002 assignment...finally!!!!
still have lotsa online lectures to read, slides to make for presentation, speech to prepare...
WTH..i really need much much more time than i thought.
Shall start with my slides first...

meeting boi for dinner later...
we decide to get a cake for my mum, since it's her birthday today...dun think she wanted a big celebration...quite poor thing that i'm the only one who remembered and wished her this morning...my dad can't even recall k and talked to her about his work stuff during breakfast. my mum must be very sad.
well, i'll make her happy today ba...hehe....do all the household chores for her...good idea! :)

alright, shall go for my lunch before i start with my slides...
sick of being so way behind time...arggghhh..

DHL commercial

What if a delivery service is so efficient and professional... (gotten this from an email. I find it quite interesting and thought of sharing it with you people.)

Life is like a jigsaw puzzle.

Something is wrong with my stomach...
recently, i do have a weird feeling in my stomach after my meals. It makes me feel like puking out everything, coz my stomach can't take in any food. It can't digest most of the thing, and it's feeling terrible. Maybe I can only eat vegetables and fruits. It doesn't feel that bad. Doesn't know what really happen. I just feel weak, and the weather isn't cold recently, but i'm covering myself with thick blanket when i sleep. Am I sick?

Boi and I went to the IT show yesterday. We had our lunch at Waraku @ the Central as boi parked his car at his office. It's my third time eating Waraku, and i find the food, just any food there, is really superb. Sakae can't fight lar. Now you know why I'm sick of Sakae le ba. Must try Waraku!!!! Everything is nice..ohhh...

ok, enough of that. We walked to Suntec after our meal. When we was about to reach Suntec, our first reaction was, "Wah seh, so damn crowded." The queue reached the end of the bridge that links Suntec and Citylink. We almost gave up the idea on going. Well, we took the other route to Suntec, through Marina Square. Along the way, I bought a pair of shoes...oopz~ haha. Then, we travelled to Suntec to get my laser printer. Yeah, I finally got it, but the box was really huge. The trolley that carried the printer seemed pathetically small. Walked around the crowded place with the bulk created much inconvenience. Looked at some digital cameras, wanted to get one from fujifilm, but it was quite ex, and boi said if I doesn't need it now, then it's best that I don't buy first. True, I agree with him, so I never buy lor.

Then, we walked all the way back to Riverwalk pulling the bulk. I was scared that the wheels may just give way, coz it's making a lot of noise. Finally, we put the bulk at the back of boi's car, and we travelled to boi's house for steamboat dinner. Nothing much happen after that.

I miss boi now. The reason is I'm too dependent on him, he said. Yar, I agree. Heehee. He told me that I've become a part of him that if he doesn't see/call me for a day, he'll feel that something is missing, and uneasiness sets. His famous quote, "If I'm the words in the sentence, you'll be the commas and fullstop. It's you that make my sentence complete." It sounded quite mushy. Haha. Don't box me when you read it, boi. I'm very grateful to have him in my life, someone who pieces the puzzle of my life up into a beautiful picture. A jigsaw puzzle, though it's a beautiful picture, there are lines in-between the pieces of puzzle. Relationship too, the lines represent the little quarrels we had, and we bridge the pieces together when we overcome it. Isn't it interesting? That's life.

Alright, I need to rush my report. Hope my health will improve.

What's wrong with Edventure?

화난!

i've tried so many times, but the videos are just not able to reached....what's wrong???
sigh~
suan le, do some little blogging...coz i dunno what i can do until the edventure is ok...


oh, i bought a corkboard for my study corner last friday...haha...small little things will add joy to my life..i bought a bright red nail polish too...lolz~ I quite like that.

saw a perfume that i wanted to buy, but hesitated. Issey miyake. its smell is natural, very natural. Haha. BUT, it is too expensive le lar. It's what i want, not what i need, so i end up not buying it..hehe..




Walked around JP after i end my lesson...wanted to watch a movie, but can't find an interesting one. Tried some shoes, but never buy. Looked at wallets, but also never buy. yar, i just enjoyed window shopping alone in a familiar place, where there are no irritating stares for being alone. Think i'm back to the original me, who loves to be alone most of the time. The feeling of no restrictions, no bother, no dilemma. I just need to depend on my own senses to move. Simply happy. Of course, if boi or my sisters are there, it will be better. Hmm, too bad everyone is too busy for me.

Suddenly feel like going to korea again. lolz. Looks like the korean drama is affecting me a lot, but I'm trying to make myself really go into it. I personally don't know the reason behind, but i like the feeling. Haha. Yar, I'm insane. At least I find myself something that I can occupy myself with when I'm free.

Alright, think I've written enough.

Korean

모두에 좋은 저녁,

한국어 언어에 있는 나의 첫번째 쓰기이다, 확실히 흥분하 느끼기. 희망은 모두 잘 하고 있다. 나가 한국어 언어에 노련하다고 생각하지 말라. 나는 지금 막 이 자유로운 온라인 통역을 영어를 한국어로에서 모두를 번역하는 사용했다.


여기에서 비밀: 나는 그를 대단히 놓친다! 사랑해요, boi.

夏日香气

안녕하세요!

i've just finished watching this drama...and i really love it...


from the start to the end...ooh, well-written...though slightly long-winded, i still think it's very worth-watching..

the couple necklace...those who've watched should know that they fit together...left for guy and right for girl..

宋承宪....not really very shuai, but got character and cool....yeah, "man" is the word..haha..i love this type of guys....lalalala....
i'm a very emotional person, i admit...so any drama/movie i've watched, i'll be deeply affected by it..for this show, i felt sad day and night....i became very forgiving for a lot of things...
i find life a treasure...shouldn't we stop hurting the people around you that you treasure?
shouldn't we start to be appreciative to what others have done for us, and give back?
i've been trying to change my character, to be a better person....glad that i believe i'm still on the right track....
we should learn to forgive....but never forget, so that we wun get hurt with same intensity the next time...
i'll learn...i am learning...


boi is busy with his event today...hope everything is fine..
i'll be alone at home, studying...maybe play a little bit of Sims or watch other dramas when i'm done with my studying...
hmm....i dunno lar...
ok, i have to end here...
