There was a pool of water on the floor. Apparently, a water bottle has cracked. Logically, I should ask the cleaning auntie to mop it up before the little ones stepped on it. But due to time constraint, I gave instructions to Not to step on it, and continued my lesson.
Shortly after, black murky shoe prints were over the area. Why the little ones can't follow instructions, I thought. I decided a warning would do the job. "If anyone of you steps on that pool of water again, you will mop yourself!" came my hasty response while pointing towards the floor.
"HUH? Can mop yourself meh?" followed by an action of "mopping" his outstretched arms.
Yes, that's my life, my job. Students make me laugh, or else, my life a living hell....

I've been lazy, I admit, to update this blog. Ever since I served my notice at my previous company, i've been busy catching up on all the episodes of Grey Anatomy on season 1, 2 & 3. I love and hate this show - it made me like an addict being glued to the TV & dvd player, not forgetting it also made me cried several times while watching it.
Also, I finally went ahead & got a diving license. I would say it wasn't difficult at all. You can see beautiful corals & fishes as well as the xperience was valuable. Being in the sea was totally out of my element ( I couldn't sink. and initially when I was deep down, I kept floating upwards) Eww, relieving about it now sends tingles to my feet.

Been loving this song... Have you heard of it? It's an old song, by Jann Arden. Somehow it reminds me of old times.
Insensitive
How do you cool your lips, after a summer's kiss How do you rid the sweat, after the body bliss How do you turn your eyes, from the romantic glare How do you block the sound of a voice You'd know anywhere
Oh, I really should've known By the time you drove me home By the vagueness in your eyes, your casual goodbyes By the chill in your embrace The expression on your face that told me Maybe you might have some advice to give On how to be insensitive, insensitive, insensitive
How do you numb your skin, after the warmest touch How do you slow your blood, after the body rush How do you free your soul, after you've found a friend How do you teach your heart it's a crime to fall in love again
Oh, you probably won't remember me It's probably ancient history I'm one of the chosen few Who went ahead and fell for you I'm out of vogue, I'm out of touch I fell too fast, I feel too much I thought that you might have, some advice to give On how to be insensitive Oh, I really should've known
By the time you drove me home By the vagueness in your eyes, the casual goodbyes By the chill in your embrace The expression on your face that told me Maybe you might have some advice to give On how to be insensitive
Venture into the unknown isn’t always easy as it seems. There are uncertainties, darkness lurking around in the shadows which I have to brace myself for.
Quitting a job from the company is almost the same as kissing an ex-lover goodbye. You’ve been with the company for a period of time; you know the Ins and Outs of the company. You grow with the co. You see the changes evolving over time. And most of all, you have contributed much of your all to the company. I would like to think I have left behind my footprints on the people, culture in the company. Definitely there were days of thunderstorms, dark gloomy clouds in the office, but you’ve survived it all.
Until one day, you realised there’s nothing more you could have done for this company, and it made you cry because of the unbearable stress that was put on you. After you wipe away the tears, you resolved to find solutions to solve the problems and you tried harder as days went by. Yet, problems remained.
So naturally, for self survival sake, you quit. Q.U.I.T. No more working hard for this company as most of your effort had gone fruitless. It is a hard decision but you had to do it. And I don’t blame you.
Thus, I’ve decided to quit my job, my company and my work. It simply isn’t working out for me.
My leaving will not cripple the company; neither will I be crippled because of the lack of its existence in my life. The company will continue finding its ways & means to hit targets, plump up its revenue, reduce expenses (usually a futile effort I would say) etc. For me, I will continue to earn a living, mainly to put food on the table – or into my little dog’s bowl – whatever you call it.
And having said that, we will be happier moving on.
On the last note, I know all is not gone as there’ll be times some things trigger my memory bank and I remember…....
With a smile.
While browsing thru the web, I found this HOT picture.
I think I just found a wonderful song..... to be playing it on our wedding ..... Small announcement to make. I'm engaged... to the man / love of my life. He proposed with bended knees last month, so after him repeating the question 3 times, I nodded. Made him repeat three times because i've gotta milked it for all its worth - afterall i only get to enjoy his embarrassing predicament once in a lifetime. Making this decision, however, wasn't difficult to me. He make the words "commitment, happiness, forever" so much easier to believe. I look forward to a lifetime with him.
Craig David : Unbelievable
Always said I would know where to find love Always thought I'd be ready and strong enough But sometimes I just felt I could give up But you came and you changed my whole world now I'm somewhere I've never been before Now I see What word love means
It's so unbelievable And I don't wanna let it go Its something so beautiful Flowin down like a waterfall I feel like you've always been Forever a part of me And it's so unbelievable To finally be in love Somewhere I never thought I'd be
In my heart in my head it's so clear now hold my hand you've got nothin' to fear now I was lost and you've rescued me somehow I'm alive I'm in love you complete me And I've never been here before Now I see What word love means CHORUS
When I think of what I have And this chance I nearly lost I can't help but break down and cry oooh yeah break down and cry
So in need of a break…. it is endlessly repetition of working 9-6pm, facing the same shit everyday.
SUX.

Currently watching: Return of the Condor Heroes. (At this old age of mine, I'm still trying to learn Cantonese.....) This was a production in 1983, hence you can see Andy Lau minus the wrinkles....
