30 分钟 54 秒……今晚的纪录。

在往回看,竟然进步了大约 4 分钟的时间!哦……一定是凉爽的空气让人心旷神怡,所以跑起来也格外精神!

忙碌的一天真实让人在回到家中是对工作是倍感厌烦。今天的报纸还未翻看,明天越野赛跑的东西也还没有准备好,而现在手指却正在打字!

右脚酸麻,身体感到热烘烘的……收音机播着悦耳的音乐……工作的压力竟被轻松的心情给吞没了。

是的,一天还能做多少工呢?

Religious and Moral Education Programme

Today i asked 3G to write the assignment that was supposed to be graded and reflected on their report book. The requirements were creativity and clarity of theme.

So in a bid to create some creative sparks, i decided to write my own RME assignment on the white board.

(The 7 habits of highly effective people)

My sense of being proactive is that sometimes we must make things happen. If not we would just dispair with failures and setbacks. In order for life to have meaning, we must try to foresee what we are going to be on the day that we die.

The class thought that i was being too philosophical when i wrote this: "当你出生的时候,大家都因为你的到来而感到高兴,而当你死去的时候,大家却会为了你的离去而感到痛楚。"

How many of us actually think ahead of our own lives? How to we go on and know that we are always on the right track? I guess that the answer will always be ahead of us, no matter how much planning we can do.

We could die tomorrow? We could die even the next minute.

Enjoy life the way it is... and be not afraid to take risks and be happy or sad if time and situation permits it. Climb a mountain, say hello to the girl you always like... tell a friend that you treasure him/her ... the sky's the limit!

So have you also began with the end in mind already?

Some updates...

Oh well ... came back from conducting napfa test in school as a SBJ scorer; partly because i have to replace Miss Aida as she had a paper due tomorrow. So in the end lessons got cancelled and well... i went back home late again.

Decided that i should go for my overdue run... and clocked 34 mins 22 secs and 96 split. I always wonder how long the distance was that i had covered from such a timing.

Then it was off home to read the overdue zaobao papers and subsequently dinner... watched a little bit of american idol, with 2 issues of Time magazine... was going to read the National Geographic but decided that i had enough for the day.

Wanted to start marking but was too tired... so ended up doing brainless thing like blogging my photographs taken with an outing with my beloved cousins!

留下来的力量

最近级任班常常有人留下来。

有人说这是无谓的。有人说我太过于牺牲自己了。

其实对自己这样的行径,我也有些百思不解。直到最近想起了一位逝世的同事兼好友,我才恍然大悟:原来我的目的是想向她致敬。

有时无条件付出的力量才是最大的。

Free time for blogging

A parent came up to me in the subject combination talk and asked if the ratio of male to female teachers was too low.

Apparently it was and he asked if it was possible to increase that ratio.

He says boys at secondary tend to be more shy to female teachers, and thus they will grow closer to male teachers. He told me that it was the case for himself when he was younger.

Education and so on.. doing things together...

But i guess things are not as it was in the old days. I think the parent must have had a terrific time with his teachers, male or female.

Should i pass on his message to the school management? Or should i not do it, since i already know the answer --- things are not in our control all the time.

MOE short of teachers and bla bla bla... then in the end MOE still boasts high rate through its statisitcs and so on... haha...

I got a friend who asked if i am an opposition supporter but in the end i say i am not. I added that voting is secret. In fact i hate it when there are more oppositions rising up. That means i have more election duties to do. Or a higher chance of being arrowed, be it in my ward or other.
