Holiday is here....I miss.......

Holiday has started but still there are endless work to complete....

this year is a mess....

because of too much work at once.....

i don't even have time to do quality work....

now the holiday mood has not set in yet.....

haih.....

I start to miss so many things.....

my sister called asking if i go back...

my mom and dad called asking the same question....

my nieces dropped a few words in my fb asking if

i'll visit them....

i start to think of what i will do once i go back....

the plans....the time spend with my parents...

my nieces....nephews....brothers...sisters....

christmas at home.....

doing nothing and yet every moment is precious....

I don't mind that Serian has no delicious food to eat....

or that there is nothing interesting to be done back home...

but i guess....

being with family is way, way more important than that...

and delicious food can be subjective....

to me pekasam ikan is delicious food...

but to other non-Sarawakian, it may be yuckish food....

see.....delicious at times can be universal...

but some food are an acquired taste....

which you grow up with....

My heart is too heavy to continue writing now....

i may not show that i miss anyone outwardly...

but that does not mean that i do not miss anyone at all....

or that i don't think about it in my mind...

I envy those who can see their parents every day

or every week....or just often enough....

I feel that every time i see my parents they are getting

older and older.....

more wrinkles....more white hair.....

haih.....

LDP Pemulihan 3M on 15 Nov

Pemulihan has been a pain in the backside

ofr all of us...

as we have no basic in doing remedial teaching

and the courses that i had attended before is definitely

of no help at all....

we were still groping in the dark...until yesterday....

a slight light is finally found...

My KB managed to get hold of a

teacher from SK Sikamat

who has years of experience in teaching remedial classes

and her technique is proven effective to

the students who need remedial classes...

Yang Rokiah binti Ahmad....

we have been trying to get her since the beginning of the

year and finally yesterday...

she had a free slot to come and did the LDP.

It was pretty simple and manageable method....

but it is mainly for reading BM...

but i guess we can adapt it for teaching English....

She had brought with her the books that she had written

and sold at an affordable price....

way way cheaper than market price...

Anyway...it was really a good session and i hope

during the holiday, we can work on something that can be used

next year....

Evil thought crossed my mind:

There were people who are not from the Language Department

and do not have children as well who

joined the LDP...

and definitely this person will not

teach Remedial classes next year...

but this person joined us...

I couldn't help to wonder that this person's sole reason was

to avoid from taking care of the students who come

to school on that day as many of us were in the LDP.

And yesterday was especially hectic for

the SUPEP who needed all the help they could

get to prepare the hall for SPM examination.

Shame on this person if my suspicion is proven true...

Family Day 2010

Fun...hilarity.....reunion......prizes...gifts....

Well...the day was finally here...

and we, the committee members were still pretty much busy since morning.

There went my plans of going around Malacca town...

after breakfast, Lin, Kak Yah and I

once again got together to discuss and finalise on everything...

the number of family members, the room,

the payment etc.....

while Sarijah and Wani were down stairs in the

hall preparing, labelling and numbering the

prizes, hampers and gifts....

By 11am, we went down to help.

Yati was the first family to arrived followed by

Kak Hazlin.

They were looking for room to stay but the hotel was

fully booked...

luckily Marzatul did not plan to stay so she sold off

her room to Kak Lin.

We went up to get the room keys....and the extra breakfast coupons

and put them in the envelope...

by 2pm most of the teachers have arrived and by

3 pm...they were down at the pool area

for the telematch.

We had a hilarious and fun time, cheating, shouting, chasing,

running, pulling chairs...falling off chairs....

The best part was the cheating part....

Tn haji, Cikgu Man were among those who cheated

outrageously but that was expected...

It wouldn't be a fun time without the cheating....

Anyway...while having fun, the storm suddenly moved in...

taking over the clear sky...

it happened so fast but even with rain and the wind,

we still had fun playing water balloon...

Too bad it rained in the evening.

By 7 pm...the dinner had to be moved into the small

hall which was pretty cramped for 130 people.

Argh....but we had no choice...

We planned for a pool side bbq dinner but the

weather did not permit it.

So, dinner proceeded in the hall at 8 pm...

i delivered my impromptu speech...

then the principal, after that

the birthday celebrants cutting the cake and dinner...

While dinner there was video slide show

of the school's activities for the year and also

pictures of the telematch that evening.

Then, the lucky draws......

and the gifts giving.....

everything was in a rush because the teachers were so

anxious to watch the football match between

Kelantan and N. sembilan.

The hall was nearly empty by 10 pm....

so dinner ended at about 10.30pm.

After that, Kal Liza, Lin, Ravi, Lin's husband and i stayed

for karaoke session.

Oh...kal liza arrived at 4pm...

so we sat down to gossip in between singing until 11.

Tn Haji came down to join us at 5 to 11....so he sang 3 songs...

before we went off for a drink.

We managed to gossip sumore with Ravi and Kak Liza after that.

Overall...it was a smooth dinner for us...

but still we heard some people complained that their husbands were not

called for the telematch...

which we did but they didn't turn up...

but they could join in the middle if they wanted too....

it was not our fault tho...we had too many things to

think about.

It was a good dinner...the food was ample and

there was no shortage...

too bad i couldn't eat so much as my mouth was full with ulcer.
