It has been 3 weeks!

Today is Friday! The 3rd Friday of Term 3. Ms C has been known as Mrs N for 2 weeks now. Time is really crazy. It runs so fast that I have no choice but to just follow the flow...as a result, I hardly have the time to think or to reflect.

I know I promise everyone that I will update this blog regularly. But changing the school and getting married at the same time is taking the toil on me. Getting used to the new home is one thing. Getting used to the new work environement is really a challenge. Just last Friday, I had a really miserable moment, while sitting at my new mini cubicle doing some marking. A sudden sense of loss overwhelmed me and I started tearing. I started sniffing, trying really hard to hold back my tears but to no avail. I thought talking to people would help so I messaged some of my dearest ex-colleagues but all the messages that returned were so sweet and touching that I just cried. Well, not surprising to all of you...Mrs N is still a cry baby. Knowing how miserable I was feeling, I received a surprise gift (A SUNFLOWER...MY FAVOURITE!) from one of my ex-colleagues...well...early in the morning, the day after the Youth Day holiday, Mrs N started sniffing again.

Not forgetting all the sweet messages from all of you. From my 2 chair persons (M - I hope you are feeling better now), D, E(over MSN) and one of the history pupils, SK. Everytime you all mentioned that you are going to trash any pupils who bully me here, it just makes me smile. You guys have no idea how much I miss everyone (especially the Sec 4s). See? Even typing this makes my eyes teary. But no worries everyone, because I do not want to see anyone of you getting into trouble for trashing people, I will not let anyone bully me. Anyway, the pupils here are really nice to me. So, you all just focused on doing SUPER well in your O'levels and let me worry less.

So, all the sweet sweet pupils of mine, do not worry about me...things are getting a little better as days go by. Will share more with you all when there's a chance (in this blog or when we meet). In the meantime...study really hard! Remember to dream the biggest dream so that you can realise it!

Miss you all!

Farewell outing with 4E3

Sorry guys for taking so long to upload these. I must say a big thank you for organising the outing especially to Dinie who was the main coordinator for the whole thing...although I burnt a hole (and a huge one ok) during the outing, I am glad to see smiles on the faces of almost everyone. My initial fear that I would cry was pointless as no tears were really shed (except for 1 person). I guess we were all mentally prepared to say good-bye and we just want to wish each other the very best as we move on.

To 4E3, thank you for being such a charming form class. Although some of you really gave me headaches, I have never failed to believe that ALL of you are good people. I had difficulties initially with some of you who are really stubborn people, but sometimes the little messages and notes that you gave assured me that you are on the right path. Work hard, people! I want to laugh and cry in joy with you next year!

Last Day of school - With 4E History Elective class

4th June 2008 spelt the last History class I would ever have with my 4E class. As much as their mid-year results were very disappointing (no one knows it better than they themselves do), I still believe that they will rise to the occassion and perform to their best ability.

Certainly the sweetest graduating History class I have ever had. I will never forget the lovely birthday surprise, sweet farewell (knew you guys were up to 'no good' when you actually rejected my idea to cancel class) and unwavering support and understanding. Not forgetting the 'gila girls' who can really make and spoil a day!

Just want to wish all of you the very best! Work really hard to prove that you can!
