The Teachers’ Day Celebration was dull. I received a couple of presents and cards from students eventually. I was overjoyed not for receiving presents but was more pleased with the fact that some of them had shown appreciation. What is most important about education is morale after all. We had our dinner at IMM. Jingkun’s …

Practice Makes Perfect
Last Thursday marked a new historic record of mine – speaking for eight hours with only an hour of break in the middle, and of which, at least two hours was roaring against the crowds. I was quite surprised that I was able to make it in the end without feeling sore after taking a …
The Sweetest Job Offer
I have never dreamt of working near my house with a good position status, having higher pay than now even though with just a diploma certificate, working for eight hours daily and last but not listed, having own room to hear knocking on the door and I say “Come in!”. Overall, the greatest loss is …
Second Dinner at Chinatown Complex
We had our dinner at Chinatown Complex for the second time last Wednesday. At first, Weitat told me to continue with my own dinner before we parted from work. Jingkun messaged me just in time for me to halt my mum to get takeaway for me. I waited patiently until eight PM and the holy …

So coincidentally that the rain was showing love only the southern part of Singapore again, my weekend did not go …
Ending and Beginning of Webhost
Mike has informed me that he would be terminating the service from his dedicated server’s webhost soon since his website is not making much money anymore; the two-hundred over US dollar web space is too much of a flattery to the low traffic. Over the past few years, I have been using free services from …
Powerful Spike
Last Friday’s volleyball session was another memorable night. We actually wanted to go out for a quick bite before the game but the pouring raining halted us. I was so hungry that I rushed down to the canteen to grab some sandwiches and luckily the auntie was still around. She handed me a difficult task …
Evening's Great Sleep
Six PM to two AM – it is all because of the previous night being burnt for work that I have enjoyed such long time on bed. I did wake up a couple of times when my mum questioned me about dinner, and when my younger brother switched on the television and the air-conditioner. At …
