Cheetah Graduation Class Picture

I know I seldom write about my class or my students coz if I am a parent, I won't like my children's teacher write sth about them, either in a good or in a bad story. I really think that consent form is very important to protect one's privacy. But this time, I need to break it. I'd like to show my students proudly to the world.

What's wrong with the students? Why did teachers look happy but the students look unhappy? Ok, let me explain. The students, and teachers, showed GREAT interest in taking pictures and basically my students could give you thousands of different poses. But when we got the last turn, which meant we needed to wait for an hour, to take the picture, we felt bored . While waiting for turn, children played, ran, and jumped like what children normally do and teacher (me) was busy taking children's pictures. So when our turn came, we showed no interest to take picture (but you can't see it from teachers' faces coz we are great actresses, or basically just narcissists :P).

My Mom's Tiny Shopaholic Day!

Today, my mom and I (accidentally) shopped. Our foremost purpose of going out was to have facial treatment which we have once a month. We finished it around lunch time then we decided to have lunch in a shopping mall. After that, we thought that it's a "good" idea to have a peep of some SALE products. Passing some 70% towels, my mom took three towels with bright colors. I remember that she just bought two towels and she hasn't used them yet, then she said they were "spare" towels, so in case we need a towel, we didn't need to buy it again and since it had 70% discount so why not? Somehow, I'm still amazed at my mom though we've been together for more than 20 years.


Meaning to pay the towels, my mom bought a frying pan in few minutes while I was checking some wrapping papers. I bought five, which the end I dropped one while carrying the things to car. It was the nicest paper! It has soft pink pastel color with greyish green butterflies on it.

Do you think we stop there? Nope! My mom bought six packs of 2-litre cooking oil. Why did my mom buy them? Coz normal price is 22 thousands and they are only 16 thousands IF we purchased the items with credit card! The best of all was I needed to carry three packs of 2-litre cooling oil in each hand! There's NO trolley or basket or whatever! And we parked our car outside the mall since it's so difficult to park inside. I had a "wonderful" shopping day. Happy shopping everybody! My First 'SUCCESSFUL" Photoshop Mixing! Yay! :)

Zap! (Sakit...)

Last week, I was asked to write an article about sport day at my school. Feeling so excited, I straight away wrote about it since I still had fresh memory about that day. I wrote short and simple article. I was quite satisfied and proud that I didn't take much time to write about it. I handed in the soft copy to my principal. Then she said that she needed to edit 'little' of my article. I agreed.

Then I was curious how she edited my article, so I checked the article. Then it's like the sky fell down on me, she changed LOTS! The feeling was totally different, I mean, the idea was still mine, but the choices of words made it LOTS better. Zap! my heart hurt. It made me realize not to be PROUD easily. Keep on learning. Most important, this experience taught me to be HUMBLE.
