jolene: its interesting to read about your office life. working life is cruel(like the adults always say)... at least we still have 4 years of being students so we must really enjoy ourselves.

i've been involved in casual relief for the past 2 weeks. last week at pioneer sec and this week at acs barker. very different environments! pioneer sec students call me "tee- CHER, CHER"(i think its quite funny) whereas the barker students call me "madam"(sounds old...) also, i was a bit shocked to see that more than half of the class in pioneer were non-chinese. made me think about my secondary school days where all my classmates were chinese and the fun i had in jc with minorities in my class. my class would often joke about race riots :D i learnt quite a bit about the muslim faith in the past 2 years too. its very similar to christianity.


yup this is my longest entry so far cos i've finished invigilating and got nothing to do until 1. here are some jokes from my email which i finally read.

Teacher: "How come you do not comb your hair?"
Ah Kow: "No comb, Sir."
Teacher: "Use your dad's then."
Ah Kow: "No hair, Sir."
(reminds me of how people in tungling always joke about the uncles having no hair. heehee)

Mother: David, come here.
David: Yes, mum?
Mother: You really disappoint me. Your results are getting worse.
David: But I will only get my report book tomorrow.
Mother: I know that. But I am going to Hong Kong tomorrow, so I am scolding you now.

oh and have you ever thought about why convenience stores which open 24/7 have padlocks?

see you all on sat!
