Term started fine, with loads of things to do as usual.
Term 3 is always busy. lots of events. Choir as usual, practices until 6 sumthing, in preparation for a performance at Parkway and thanksgiving.
And it's also the time when graduating students get frantic. So many looking for teachers for 'extra tuition'.
I also received some terrible news...
Had a terrible rehearsal that almost made my brain explode...
Anyway, the Parkway performance was made known to the alumni, thru the blog and all the contacts the students had. It was also announced to the school and teachers! So on that day, the response was overwhelming. So many students, alumni, even teachers. We even have people cheering for us when the choir went on stage.
Girl: 'Wow, very scary leh... so many people'.
I: 'But concert hall even more!'
Girl: 'But concert hall cannot see!'
I: '...'
Anyway, the choir was great, though the stage was small, a little squeeze to put all of them into the 'boundary', and the microphones kept on 'feeding back', all went well. It was actually raining dogs and cats before our item. But it stopped just in time for the crowd to gather around and view our performance. YEAH!
Oh I went to watch RED CLIFF. It was GREAT!! Anyway any movie with tony leung in it is a fantastic movie. MUST WATCH.
I went for a Workshop last thurs and fri. I had to wake up at 5.30AM! Travelling time is almost 2 hours. And all I could take home is a huge grey file, and something about 'BIG IDEAS' and that Learning Science by Inquiry needs MONEY.
Seriously couldn't understand the part on 'assessment and evaluation'. I was totally confused and kept on asking my colleague what the speaker is talking about.
And through tat two days, I also discovered something. Boon Lay interchange is terrible. It has SWARMS of people moving in AND out of that place. I had to queue like 3 minutes before I could squueze my way to get from the train door to the escalator.
