thursday post
for the past few weeks i have been really closely bonded with my show choir students, to prepare for their competition, that is happening on this sunday.
although some of them are still a bit jia lat, for example some still dunno their notes, some opened their mouths to sing and nothing comes out from their mouth, some dance as if their parents owe them pocket money, but majority are really committed to this.
and they are as crazy as me, because when i suggested a 2D1N intensive training camp for friday and saturday (when our competition is on sunday), they agree to it immediately. this is what i call ALL HEARTS UNITED AS ONE.
however one parent felt that i was overstretching them and i kenna quite abit from him. in the end we reached a compromise whereby she will go home at 8 pm and report to school on saturday at 9 am. :p
and i will like to share this post by an army friend of mine.
Gone are the good old days when students listen to their
teachers, obey the school rules and follow the ways of the
school. Gone are the days where parents support the teacher
in helping to discipline the kids and teaching the correct
values to the kids. Kids are now more pampered, more vocal
cause their parents support them. whats worse is that the
school bows to pressure and adjust according to the students'
wants. Call me old school or what, but there are certain
things that cant be changed and has to be maintained. but
oh well who am i to complain, just get on with it since it aint
gonna change...

on 7 august we combined national day and hari raya celebrations.
we were treated to one hour plus of performance at the hall. this was the longest ever performance and i am quite glad that the whole thing was over. :p
and how can we miss out photo taking, when everybody is dressed in red?

overly expressive shot. hahahahahahahaha.

and i am very looking forward to B-Dazzled, a show choir competition that will be held next Sunday. my kids have been training super hard for this!!!

more ndp photos
the photos that i am showing are from an ex student.
this student was a bit irritating, but he shows a great passion for photography, and the photos he took of the ndp are really nice, so i shall laud him for that.

malacca trip
went to malacca from 8 August to 9 August with xuehong, nzj and mummy.
going there is unbearable because we were stuck in the horrible jam towards malaysia customs. i think we were stuck for nearly two hours. the conclusion that we arrive to is that it was the day of selamat hari raya, and the muslim malaysians dun wanna work, and those muslim malaysians who sway sway have to work may take their own sweet time in stamping the passports as an act of protest. :(
and then on the expressway to malacca we met with a traffic accident. mummy said that this was her slowest drive to malacca. to set the record, we only reach malacca at 5 pm. zzz...
ok here are the very few pics that i took with my S3. there are a few more pics in nzj's camera. nzj quickly upload! :)
woo hoo malaysia got blackball! nice!
nzj took a quick nap upon reaching the hotel. he only slept four hours the previous night. kudos to him for being the vehicle commander and keeping awake all this while in the front seat with mummy. kudos to mummy too for driving us there! me and xuehong slept like no one's business. hahahahaha.
we had nyonya food for dinner! not at aunty lee, but at a restaurant located at jonker walk.
the belachan is good! but i think can be spicier.
yummy stingray with yummy gravy!
the must have cincalok omelette when you go to nyonya restaurants at malacca!
bought these for my pe colleagues! each person will take his own house colour! we shall wear these on teachers' day! hahaha.

thursday post
it is my pleasure to know mr amin, who is a phenomenal dancer. i got to know him because he is the choreographer for my show choir. and after we became friends on facebook, i realised how awesome he is and i must say that my show choir kids are really privileged to be taught by him!
today was his last day teaching them. he is really a busy person with alot of other commitments. we are thankful to him for his wonderful guidance for the past 7 months! anyway the above 3 girls are not originally from show choir. i recruited them from chinese dance so that they can add more stage presence. and the tall girl in the middle is insanely flexible!!! she is 1.72 m??!!
after that i went to extract my two premolars from the bottom row teeth. the extraction was a bit scary but still ok because the female dentist is very gentle yet efficient.
now that they are extracted, i can go do the braces for the bottom row teeth tomorrow!
