This time for sure
I am determined to continue writing.
I was speaking to Sangz today about how I used to blog. And I wondered if my LJ is still around, and ta-dah! You are! Or should I say I can only remember the url to this LJ.
I can't believe I have forgotten the url to my blogspot :(
Also, I have been wanting to blog since this afternoon, so I paused Australian Survivor, moved to the living room, wanting to update my life since I last blogged.
Then I got side-tracked. I found out that photobucket has stopped working! WHAT?! Or should I say, it has stopped being FOC. :( So I have to find a new moodtheme, Sailormoon nonetheless :) And find a new hosting site to host all my images. What a chore to reupload. But I was determined to do it. I have to do it before I can start blogging again. And then I actually wanted to change a new layout, so I did changed. But something just seems off. And then I changed again. And again. And I am back to square one.
So here I am, after all the unneccesary hassle, I am finally ready to write. (I found out that I just have this OCD thingy. It's just like I have to search for the perfect background before I can start working on a new powerpoint presentation.)
SO! Ever since I last blogged, which was a year ago! So many things happened!
Let's see, Hui Li got married, Sharon got married, Qianyi got married. Emma is turning two next month. And I am still single. Always ready to mingle, yet extremely lazy to. 心有余而力不足。
I have completed my bond. This year end, I will be receiving my connect plan for being 4 years in the service. Well, I really lasted longer than I thought. Whatever happened to leaving straight after my bond end?
My form class of 4 years finally graduated. Honestly, despite all the shit that they gave me, I will surely miss them a lot. Come next year, when I have a new form class, I wonder how will I feel then? Oh, and guess what? My partner of 3 years, Mr Y, resigned. But I am alright now. I think as I grew older, I really try not to get too attached to people. People come and go all the time. I can't be all upset everytime it happen right?
This 1.5 years, I have completed 2 rounds of O level Chinese marking. Good experience, even though extremely taxing. I have a better idea on the essay marking rubrics now. Also, I am always learning. And this year, I think I am more efficient in my marking and monitoring of the students' work. I am improving, always growing to be a better teacher to my students.
Anyway, there is this ICTLT Conference next year and I wanted to present there. I hope my team gets selected. Dan and I will work on our proposal tomorrow. I am excited!
On a lighter note, another month to jetting off again. This time to Amsterdam and Edinburgh! Yes, yes! And I am travelling with my favourite travel partner, Sangz! I am really grateful to be able to meet someone who has the same frequency as me. And what is even better is that we are colleagues too. I am counting my blessings everyday. As much as I have other good friends in my life, at this moment, I feel that Sangz is the closest to my heart. Sometimes, there are just moments of work angst that you want to share immediately. And I am glad she is there for me. :)
Speaking of friends, I am really drifting away from my secondary school clique. It has been happening for some time now. And I feel that we just don't have the common topic anymore. Honestly, everytime we meet, all they talked about is their spouse, their married life. Nothing that concerns me. And I really don't care too. Nobody asks how I am. Everything is just about them. So yeah, dates with them are really not a priority. And if they looped me into their conversations, we will always talked about our kss days. Whereas with my jiemeimen, we always encourage each other, we talked about our plans for the future. We take turns updating our lives and the atmosphere is really so much warmer over there.
Enough of friends. I am back in the KPOP fandom. This time round, I am really into Wanna One. Kang Daniel, Park Woojin and Ha Sungwoon are my biases. HEHEHEHEHE. And you know what's even better? Having your students fangirling them too.
Anyway, I shall go back to Australian Survivor, which btw, is much better than US Survivor imo.
This time round, I will bookmark my LJ and try to blog at least once a week.
Till next time!
