saturday post

yesterday i went to ecp to cycle with some of my students. we cycled from 5 pm to 7 pm, and then we had our dinner at burger king. i only cycled for two hours and i was already very tired at 8 plus so i went home first. and i slept at 10 pm. woke up at 8 am today. 10 hours of sleep! my goodness.

and then after eating lunch, i took a nap for two hours. it must be due to the cooling weather that enabled me to sleep so well.

anyway just being random here. remember last week i brought some of my students to singapore poly for the global citizen challenge? i forgot to show you all the poster, whereby the girl inside the poster is very chio. hahahahaha.

i am going to quote wat flying dutchman from OMG always say: SHE IS A SAVIOUR TO MANKIND.

but i only have one saviour, who is none other than...

ipp + be yourself day!

time flies really really fast. i started teaching in this sch as a trained teacher on 28th june. today is 28th october. and it is the last day of school!


today have two activities. the first one is IPP. and the second one is BE YOURSELF DAY!


let's talk about IPP. IPP stands for In-Place Protection Plan. the purpose of implementing IPP is that during lessons, if some country wage a chemical war on us, then all of us have to seal the classroom using towels, trash bags or whatever stuff so that the poisonous gas wun diffuse into the classroom and kill everyone. must also set up a "toilet corner" in the classroom. and switch off all the lights and fans after sealing the classroom.


i love my form class because all of them are very spontaneous. dun need to give them any instructions. they will just auto-pilot and finish everything in less than 15 minutes. (although i must agree that 15 minutes is a bit too slow. all of us were be dead. haha.)


pictures!

(this looks like a picture taken in a haunted house)

the toilet corner! light stick contributed by yours truly. :p

shitting at the toilet corner

ok the classroom is almost sealed. my students are sitting down and rest. dunno why so many students are crowding at the toilet corner. haha.


so we have to wait... wait... and wait... wait until my OM (operations manager) gives the announcement that IPP is lifted, then we will remove everything and breathe in more oxygen!

yay! 重见天日!




and the next activity of the day, where everyone is looking forward to: BE YOURSELF DAY!


Be Yourself Day is a day where students are encouraged to hang up their school uniforms and dress up creatively to express themselves yet be aware of the school rules and social norms.


let me show you my most creative student. 


THE AMAZING TRANSFORMATION:

looking very normal at this point in time.

wah so serious ah! so many pple put make up ah!

ta da! the mad hatter! 有一点像 rite? hahahaha.

mad hatter taking pic with his group of make-up artistes.


the runway show is held at the indoor sports hall. and every class will nominate a model to represent the class. so naturally, the mad hatter is the representative from my form class.

and i am sure that all of you are wondering that myself being tyy, what am i dressed as? hahahahaha. fret not, i shall disclose the answer very shortly...

.


.

wah hahahahahahaha! that's me! the lady in front of me is my form. 


after all the students did their catwalk, the student emcees start to saboh some teachers to go and do catwalk also. of course, i am one of them being sabohed. hahahaha.

during my catwalk, not only i walked, i also posed, i danced, i did push-ups, i did a cartwheel, and my beret dropped on the ground, i picked up my beret, took off my mask, and threw them at the students. and they were screaming very excitedly. haha. very fun.


the other teachers who kenna sabohed:

aaron, the tall handsome canadian, who can dance like michael jackson. very sad that he is leaving us at the end of the year. :(

the ever popular sufian, popular among students and also teachers!

hafiz, the super fierce discipline master! he can dance very well too! teachers are really hidden talents! haha.


three prizes were given out. best dressed lower sec student, best dressed upper sec student, and best dressed class. very naturally, the best dressed upper sec student goes to the mad hatter from my form class!

batman presenting the prize to mad hatter. he won for himself 50 dollars popular vouchers!


and the best dressed class goes to... 


.




MY FORM CLASS! hahahahaha.


let me show you some of the girls in my form class:

if each class has to nominate two students, i will definitely get the jumping jewel (the girl in the middle) to do the catwalk with mad hatter. 


and we took a class photo to celebrate our victory:

awesome day! and awesome class! :)

4th year anniversary video!

thank god (in my case buddha) i found you~

our 4th year together!

today marks our 4th year anniversary!

happy anniversary darling! :)


this afternoon i was using windows movie maker to make a short video clip of our memories. when i had finished making and i wanted to convert the file, there was some stupid error and i cant convert the file! which means i cant play the video using windows media player! i cant upload the video on youtube or facebook! WASSUP!!!


nvm i shall try using my sch laptop tmr. hopefully it works. was so eager to show darling tonight. :(


my parents and younger sis are back from hk! now my house got lots of lao po bing and hk tidbits! and my parents also bought a hk entertainment tabloid magazine. the female celebrities inside are damn pretty and sexy. oops i shouldnt say that on our anniversary. and i shouldnt even read that magazine on our anniversary. :p

busy busy friday!

wow today was damn hectic.


keyed in results for the classes that i am teaching.


then brought some students to singapore poly for a competition called global citizen challenge. it was quite fun. saw two of my pe classmates there with their own students.

the organisers cheated my feelings. the whole program was supposed to end at 630. but it ended at 645. i was a bit pissed because i am going to night safari with darling after that. and she is waiting for me at her workplace. haiz. the bus picked us up at 650, and it was traffic jam all the way to tampines. finally reached my sch at 745, and i quickly rushed home to wash my face, change into a new top and went to fetch darling.


and we are at night safari! wow there are so many pple! and so many "ghosts"!!! very fun experience, but also quite scary. hahahahaha. these "ghosts" can camouflage themselves very well inside the forest and we cant see them at all. then they will suddenly rush out and scream at us, and we also scream. haha. we only took the train of terror and walked the scary trail. din go to the haunted mansion because we were already physically tired with all the scaring and screaming.

i challenge everyone to go! haha.

cip with my students

today i accompanied my form class to do cip. they have to distribute flyers to the residents, telling the residents that next wednesday they will be collecting old newspapers and other karung guni stuff, and the whole purpose of the cip is to save the environment.


so after distributing the flyers, we took class photo!

i marked finish the chemistry papers and they did quite badly. but i still love them, and next year i am going to put in my very best to improve their grades for chemistry!

new balance real run, little sis belated birthday lunch, video taking session

this morning i woke up at 450 am, ate a quick breakfast, pang a quick sai, and took cab to bedok mrt to take the shuttle bus to changi exhibition centre for the new balance real run. 


it sucks when you run 15 km with NOT enough training. before that the max dist that i ran is 8.6 km. as a result at the 12 km i start having cramps and have to walk. sian... :(


but i am impressed with my timing for the first 2 km! i look at my watch and is just 10 min 20 seconds! wow! anyway i took 1 hour 45 min to complete the run. which is an average of 7 min per km. 


after the run i wanted to take the free shuttle bus service to pasir ris. but looking at the horrendous queue i decided to walk out and took public transport. wow i walk like dunno how long and how far. i even walked past SAF ferry terminal! then i caught a bus to pasir ris, alighted, and took a cab back home. i definitely lost alot of weight today. 


and here's my medal (front and back view):

and then went for lunch with my family at this chinese restaurant called 群众, which serves awesome xiao long bao, guo tie, noodles, red bean pancake and tang yuan. it is a belated birthday meal for my little sis, because during her birthday she was at eastern europe with my parents.


and speaking about travelling, my parents are going to hk and macau tomorrow! coming back on sat! very impromptu rite? the past few days i was busy with booking air tickets and hotel accomodation, and planning their itinery. hahahaha. thank you huishi for sending me your hk and macau itinery as reference! thank you huizhi for answering my queries! :)


then went to visit my grandparents. 


and finally i went to esther's house to film the wedding video. so we are being asked questions like:


1) what is your reaction when you heard that kang chien and esther are getting married?
2) do you think they will make a good couple?
3) what will you want them to do immediately after their wedding? (have sex lah what else, but the politically correct answer is make babies)


and the other blah blah questions... hahaha.


then after that we have to sing a song for them, and we are also being video-ed. it is like making a music video. hahahaha. quite fun.


so the pple involved are:

plus king and mel, who are not in the pic. king left early because he got some matters to attend to. and mel was the photographer.

saturday post

this week is an enjoyable week for me. because the final year exams are here! which means i just need to do invigilation for this whole week and wait for my papers to come in to mark.


so on mon, tue and wed i went home at 3 plus. very very early. thursday my papers came in and i mark until six plus. :p

and on friday i played soccer with my colleagues from 430 until 6 plus. then i went home eat dinner, and went to braddell heights and played handball! this is crazy. haha. as a result i was super tired when i reach home. gone were my days of youth when i played sports the whole evening in hall, then still can go eat supper, then come back hall still do lab report or study for test.

waiting for darling to watch finish the rainie yang concert, then i will go indoor stadium to fetch her. tomorrow morning i going for 15 km new balance real run. and then afternoon i going to film KC's wedding video. i am not the videographer. i am going to be filmed with some of my pe classmates and speak some words to the newly weds. 

what a packed and fruitful week! :)

to end this post, i will present to you, THE WRATH OF GOD.

the gal in the pic is my pe classmate zhenhong's gf, who is working as an air stewardess now. this pic is taken in holland, at a sex museum. MUSEUM leh. ancient days the pple are already so explicit and horny. 

funny soccer celebrations

i just got to share these with everyone!

arent they creative? hahahaha!

a special day - 101010

this is a special day with 830 couples getting married. so 830 couples get married on this special day, which to me is not special anymore. a day is only special when only one couple get married, and the couple can say "YES WE ARE SPECIAL" because we are the only couple who got married on this particular day. ok nvm just some random thought. hahahaha.


so what did i do on this special day? in the morning i went to play soccer and i scored 2 goals. in the afternoon i went to visit my grandpa at changi general hospital. then in the evening i feel that if nv go out with darling on this special day i will feel very 遗憾.


so off to woodlands and we watched reign of assassins at causeway point!


behold the most cliche line of the movie:


我愿化身石桥，受五百年风吹，受五百年日晒，受五百年雨打，只愿你能从桥上走过。


and the movie is very nice. better than chen zhen!!!


so on this special day we must also do something cliche:

(黑熊王子 + 白水公主)

ok at least i spent this special day with darling! no more 遗憾! :)


btw, about that cliche line, hw loves to be the bridge, so that he can see the zha bor's underwear.

friday post

this morning when i woke up i felt a sharp pain in my stomach, so i quickly rush to the toilet and ta da... i lao-sai-ed. was contemplating whether to take MC but i promised to teach folk dance to two of my pe classes and i was eager to see how receptive they were towards folk dance, so i forced myself to go to sch.


i had many constraints. first, i got no mike. second, i have to teach in the indoor sports hall, because two classes cannot fit inside the small dance studio, and the hall is being used for N level exams. and third, my sch's indoor sports hall is inside the primary sch building (yes the sec sch and pri sch are side by side), and the p6 pupils are having PSLE exams, so i cannot be too loud, or should i say the noise level contributed by myself, the music and the two classes cannot be too loud. 


so i started to teach, and then teach halfway the pri sch pe hod come into the indoor sports hall and ask me to lower my volume. *oops* 


and then three students from my pe class left the indoor sports hall and went to play basketball with another pe class, and when they came back i have them a power scolding session that i think everyone was shocked that i can be so fierce. 


after the lesson i was really in a bad mood, but a sms from a student from my form class really made my day:


"mr tan, dont angry with them. it takes more muscle to frown than to smile. and if angry too long, got wrinkles. so dont angry and smile! :)"


i am happy. :)


but still unhappy a bit because of the lao-sai-ing. :(

well done rhythm & moves!

rhythm & moves is out of OMG this week. kinda sad for them because they prepared so much for this week's episode and spent so much money and yet they cant perform for their faithful supporters and the audience. maybe the 主办单位 should improve on the planning of the show, because it is very sad that the contestants prepare for next week's show, whereby their future is uncertain, as the results will only be released next week at the beginning of the show. it sucks alot for the performers who did not get in.


but anyway, i am still very happy for rhythm & moves! you all had four moments of glory! 

poor liang bin still got reservist this week. haiz i feel sad for him.

interactive dance workshop

the pe dept organised a learn and play program for the teachers. there's 4 different activities: volleyball, frisbee, gym workout and interactive dance workshop. so the teachers have to sign up for one of these activities.


and there is no prizes for guessing which activity i am in charge of. yup it is the interactive dance workshop! hahaha. i taught them two folk dances, tropanka and mayim mayim. and they enjoyed it! then after that i showed them some dance videos and tell them a bit about choreography, and i asked them to form groups of 4 and choreograph a 20 seconds dance routine, and the dance must convey a message. 

my very flexible student. i asked her and another girl to help me with the workshop.

teaching tropanka! alot of step, and alot of hop. hahahaha.

see, everyone is so happy.

mayim mayim!

really very flexible.

felt a sense of bliss when i told everyone that the lady in the photo is my gf. :)

of course must take a group pic. also known as attendance pic. hahahaha.




let's end this post with this video, which shows the best flight safety briefing. the flight attendants dance! and they are chio! hoho.
