It was my best friend's wedding yesterday and i was his best man. It was really something for as it was my first time being one. i didnt know what i should do and eventually, i sort of grasped the idea and did my job in an OK way. I wouldnt say i did a good job, still i was happy with my performance.

 

I left home for my friend's home at 7 in the morning on Saturday and the whole day was just crazy. We all went to the bride's home to get the bride. Of course, it wasnt going to be easy as there must be some things we needed to do before that. The first game was really something and I was laughing beside my friend. I was thinking "ok then, what else is coming?' The second mission wasnt difficult but it was a bit naughty though. We were asked to tear some heart shapes out of seaweed. Some made small ones and some made big ones. After making them, we had to pass them on to the next person with our mouth. We didnt do it properly though (haha)!!

 

Lunch at a nearby restaurant in Melody Garden in Tuen Mun. Then the couple went to TST for all the legal registration procedure and photo taking. it was about half 3 then. After the ceremony and some photo taking. I went to the restaurant where the dinner party was going to be held to get something done before everyone arrived. My friend was going to perform a piece of music on the piano and her wife didnt know that so we had to keep things secret. I went to the restaurant early to get the piano ready.

 

The moment he performed on the stage was really touching. His uncles and aunts down the stage kept saying '加油﹐唔使心急". I was quite nervous before I didnt want him to make any mistake. At last, he finished the whole song. The mood was really good. His wife's eyes went all red and so were his. I also had tears coming down.

 

The dinner finished at about half 12 and before going home myself. I drove the parents of the wife back home. when i got home it was already half 1. I was so tired that when i woke up today, it was already half 10. (In fact, my friend called to wake me up... ... becasue they wanna come and get back some stuff they left in my car last night. )

 

I made some new friends yesterday. I am sure if we will meet again in the future, but they are all good people to be with. ^^

 

 

Don't want to work my ass off lately and suddenly have the feeling that i should relax a bit. Plus, i have arranged to go on holiday during the Easter break. That makes me feel even lame. My best friend is getting married on Saturday and I am really happy for him. I am going to be the best man! For the 1st time!! I am really nervous. I wonder when I will get married. ^^ (I don't even have a gf yet!!) I am looking for one gar lar but I am afraid that the girl will cling onto you all the time coz i dont reallt like 'sticky' girlfriend. ^^

 

I am going to keep the wedding ring of the bridegroom until the ceremony in the afternoon. It is a really heavy task! What if i have forgotten to take it with me to the venue??  =_= hope not. !

 

I went out to sing K with some of my friends on Monday evening.

Went to have piano lesson on Tuesday evening then when home and practise the piano until midnight.

Went out again on Wednesday for usual gathering.

Went out tonight to have dinner.

Will go to another gathering tmr.

My friend's wedding on Saturday.

Rest on Sunday!! yeah!

 

night lar, tired ar. ^^

Last night, i went out with some of my friends until half 2 in the morning. so i only slept for about 4.5 hours before doing to work the next morning. It was a good evening as I hadn't been out for a while now and I think I needed that.

 

Today I had 4 lessons, 2 S4 and  2 S6. I only had the 1st of the two S4 lessons as they didn't do well for even a minor quiz which i had told them to do revision for like more than a week ago. I stopped the lesson half way and asked them to do their own work. I am tired of begging them to come to extra lessons, finish the worksheet given and do revision for my subject. I would feel much better having a relaxing lunch everyday. Why should I give up my lunch hour for speaking practice if the students dont even care about learning. I would definately feel better having no lessons on Saturdays and sleep until mid-day then go out with friends. I missed out alot because of giving S4 lessons on Saturdays. I dont want to be so cheap that i have to beg them to come back.

 

For S6, what a day! What i can say is that if they dont be serious, i will have them know what kind of a teacher I am. I fired at them for the 1st time since the beginning of the academic year. They  deserve to be shouted at as they dont listen to what i tell them. I should give S6 more freedom as they are grown-ups. Still what i have from them in return are messy homework and a bunch of 'talk back". In that case, fine! I will just do what i have to do.

 Just got back from a dinner gathering in Festival Walk. We have decided to go on holiday during the Easter. It will be either for 4 days or for 6 days, depending on how many of us can have two more days of after the 4 public holiday. Of couse, the days, the happier。

 

We, for now, have decided to go to 張家界for 4 days. If we can have a 6-day trip, then we can go to more destinations around the area. ^^ Cant wait already!!!

My cat is better now and she eats and drinks happily.

She is now sleeping next to me on the sofa. ^^

when out to Festival Walk to watch a movie about a cat today. the movie is called 'Cher Gu- Gu-'. i went with some workmates. we thought it was about the cat but mostly, the movie was revolving around the female lead. not really much about the cat.

 

Then we all went ice-staking. it was really funny. only two of us can ice-stake. including myself lar! haha. we only staked for hour and a half.

 

Some of us went home after Festival Walk. Two in the group and I went down to Causeway Bay for more, including a comic shops there. we were there for 2 hours then went for sushi. It was really delicious.

 

 

The weather is getting bad again. Strange weather =_=

On Wednesday after work, i went to ChiLok and bought some St. Seiya figurines. I loved watching St. Seiya when I was a kid. It was my all time favourite whe I was in primary school.  It was only Saturday evenings so my brothers and I used to stay up late on Saturdays and watch it. (and only on Saturdays were we allowed to stay up late) 

 

I still havent opened the figurines yet. They are still in their boxes. I bought 10 of them btw.

 

Today (Friday) was our school's Mid-term Award Ceremony. As usual, there were performances. They were all really impressive. Our students did a really good job today and they should be praised, not all though I suppose.

 

I think my cat is getting better now and she eats more and more now.... ... and get naughtier too.

忍者貓 is on the 3rd day of medicine. She does look better now. She ate and drank today, although it wasn't much. I was much relieved. I think i will take her to the vet once just to be sure that she is getting better.

 

Today there as a drama show in our school and it was a great success. Our junior students performed very well and I think we are all so proud of their great performance. It was very impressive I have to say. Well done to those who took part in the play and to those who have been working with the students for months.

 

Someone gave me an itinerary of a two-day-one-evening trip to 'Tung Kwun' and asked me to look for 30 of our staff to join it. I think he was very anxious about it. He gave me the form yesterday afternoon and he asked me if I had already had the people yet! I was like ... ... well... ... not yet, definitely!

 

I haven't been putting much effort in practicing the piano since I don't have much energy left after work. On top of teaching, marking is also very exhausting. God bless us! ^^ Sitting in front of my piano and tackling new pieces can be equally exhausting. I feel like dying sometimes. I know I will have an piano exam soon. I have to work on it for sure. But sometimes, I just have no motivation. =_=

My 忍者貓 isnt feeling any better today. I was going to be home on time and give her medicine. I couldnt as there was a rehearsal at school. The damn rehearsal finished at almost 6. My 忍者貓 was an hour late for her medicine.

It wasnt much of a rehearsal today as there was no seat arrangement. I just couldnt believe that 總務處 couldnt even arrange just a few rows of chairs for us so that we could have a better and more efficient rehearsal. We needed 2 hours to run the ceremony once!! It was really time-wasting!!!

 

Anyway, I hope that my poor 小忍 can get better soon T.T

 

BTW, since when has it become a job of the Teacher Association Chairperson?? =_= Just speechless... ...

忍者貓 is not feeling well and she hasnt been eating and drinking much. it is so worrying.

I took her to the vet today (luckily, there was one open today) and the vet said that she might have infection in her mouth due to a fever.

Gave her some medicine today. i think i need to leave work as soon as i can every day just to check on her and give her her daily doses.

 

Let's have an early upadte today. I went to work in the morning.  We had the newcomer briefing and some interviews today. But they weren't the focus of the day. I think i was more looking forward to the extra lesson i had with 4Q strainght after my morning duty. Some didnt turn up as i had expected that already. One came in an hour late and pretended that nothing had happened. So I pretended that he was not in the class. ^^

 

They were very slow indeed and we didnt get all the things done today. What a shame.

 

Have to push them a bit then.

 

Looking forward to the dinner tmr. haaaa

their leaving made me think about the days when i was a student. i dont remember what i did on the last day i had my uniform on. but i did take pics though.

dont forget, you are all my babies. be proud wherever you are going to and be proud of whatever you are doing. no bad deeds though ^^

When to Shatin after work to buy a present for my friend's home warming.

I bought a pair of crystal red wine glasses from Sxxxxxxski. They are quite expensive but come to think of it, it is a present for a friend whom i have been friends with for more than 20 years, it's definiately worth buying ^^

I am sure he will like the glasses very much. ^^

Good to have S7 back. i did miss them much.

They were so happy today as i gave out the exam cert. i hope this is what i will see on the day i give them their result slips.

 

today was a peaceful day with nothing much bothering me. i am glad. (not 100% though ^^)

tmr is 6B movie day!! i have bought some snacks and they have bought some too. it will be good.

 

Saturday extra lesson with 4Q. i will have 6 more in my class. Since i cant deal with so many at the same time so if they wanna learn, they have to learn to listen.

 

i don't know. i think i am going to lose it again. i don't want to disappoint anyone at the same time i am suppressing my own will to think for myself. is it really true that every employee should take the company's interest into consideration and always put it up above personal interest? i enjoy teaching very much. even when students are giving me hard time, i still find teaching attractive. some may think that teaching 18 lessons a week is somewhat heaven. to me, teaching only 18 lessons a week will never be something i will dream about. so don't use it to as a bait to lure me into something i don't like.

 

however, i understand well enough that it is in fact 'me', who can't make up my mind. i want to see my students until the last day of their S5 education. i dont want to disappoint my current S6 mates. i can't tolerate myself not being a class teacher next year. i have never thought that teaching, as a career, can be 'political'. i really dont know what i can do. S6+S7 or S5+S6? =_=

 

i felt so sad once and the feeling inside was like a thousand blades cutting open my flesh. i was down and depressed. these two years have changed me alot and curse these two years!!

i could never have imagined that i could change in such a way.

you attracted me not because of what you were and how you looked. it was because of the way you spoke and the way you acted. i was surprised that i was attracted to you. and yet, it has become something of the past.

and let it be the past.

 

Participated in the 2009 Green Power Hike yesterday and it was freaking tiring. I joined it with 3 other colleagues this year. 2 more came along for the hike. That made 6 of us. It wasn’t really tough I have to say. Just that I could have performed better if I hadn’t injured my leg before taking part in it.

 

There are more events coming in the next few months. See if I will take part in them.

Photos will be uploaded soon ^^
