Unfolding the hazards of a teacher;
The next time you visit the bookstore or 'cute' stores such as Mini Toons, check out for these people!
1. Young looking people looking at red pens! (teachers who ran out of them or teachers who are looking for the most comfortable pens around)
2. Young looking people looking at cute, shiny, cheap stickers! Nice,cute stamps! (teachers who got 'lobang' abt the newest shop selling stickers at budget prices)
3. Young looking people looking at colourful pencil cases! (teachers who have been walking around students' tables and admiring their brightly-coloured, cute pencil cases)
4. Young looking people at assesment book areas of the bookstore! (teachers looking for good, extensive books for their students to do)
5. Young looking people looking at educational toys! (teachers thinking of ways to get their naughty students to pay attention in class! And those weak ones to actually look interested in class!!)
6. Young looking people lugging heavy bags of say what looks like worksheets in their bags, desperately looking for stationery on the 30th Sept! (teachers who are doing last minute gift-shopping for their students)
7. You overhear people saying things like, 'they should have memberships and special discounts for teachers man!'
Oh yes the last one cant be spotted in a bookstore, but keep a watchful eye for these people...
8. Young looking people who walk around with rubber bands on their wrists and act as though nothing is wrong and as if rubber bands are the newest accessories in town. When in fact, they're only the cheaper versions of the sports bands! Aha!
Oh yes, they are teachers alright! They complain about kids! How good they felt when they made a naughty kid cry!!Haha...They're not without a heart. They're just overworked, underpaid but very loved. *wink*

Tuesday, 19 March 2005The letter is in.
The letter of acceptance into NIE is in my hands!
The letter that will decide my fate for the next 5 years.
Not excited. Just relieved. No more apprehension.
The kitten is in too!
Latha ji found a kitten in front of her door and offered it to me.
Apparently this kitty has a large fan base! On its first day its already doing tours! (it was passed to the pri 2 classes for the students to view,mostly the teachers themselves go kushy-kushy and gaga over him) Another colleague also brought her digi cam along to take a pic of him! My my...
Went to Causeway Point's Pet Station after work to buy his toy (a mouse-like toy which he is scared of @ the moment), his Iambs trial dry food, Friskies wet food (tuna and chicken), Lavendar Shampoo (its the cheapest one ard!) and Multi-vitamins. He is so scrawny and thin.
Okay..shall post pics of him..

I have a confession to make. I'm a Body Shop
addict.
How it
happened?
I can tell you
exactly how. Hanging out with dear fellow CT (Latha-ji) at Chinatown shopping centre. She squeals, "Eh Body Shop!" Okok..cant blame it on her..i mean i could have chosen not to get those stuff...BUT i DID.
How it got
worse?
I applied for membership. 10% percent off their products for a year.With some good rebates here and there. 20% off products on my birthday month. (Which i have to remind u guys is on the
12th of JUNE...Haaha...so no excuse to say forgot ah people!!!) 20% off for two promotional weeks after tt membership sign-up.
So make-up, brazil nut moisture mask,honey conditioner, manuka shampoo, vitamin E face moisturiser, Peppermint foot scrub, Pepermint foot lotion, body wash, Vitamin E face and body soap, Apricot facial cleanser, Passion fruit body scrub came from there. The rest of it i wish not to elaborate.
How it is
now?
I resolved to not get anymore of their products till it has ran out. But i just did it again. Yesterday.
How i
feel about it?
Great actually! BODY shop products are really good! Worth the $$$ cuz you dun have to use a lot! The smell of the products is really great!
What you've just witnessed?
This is an advertisement by an
unofficial ambassador of body shop. A believer in their products. An
addict inevitably.

Man..the anticipation is killing me..So this was me last thursday..The day i was going to the Bird Park with my class...
Recorded the phone nos of my students. All 39 of them..Tried eating the lunch my fellow CT bought for me..too hot..didnt finish..
Fellow CT came into staff lounge which is where i sit and happily announced "Fizah!!! I got the letter!!!" "Oh no...is mine in my intray?" Fizah thinks..
Went down to office to check...not there....panicked a bit...oh shit..where is mine...Figured tt since i registered later, mine will be later too...
Oh well, when it comes it comes..
