My hubby and I went to the temple to pray before we moved on to VIVO city. Then we had our lunch at the food court. The food court's furnishing is so traditional. The food there tasted nice and yummy. A pity, we only shopped there for 2 hours nia. And we got to pay 4 dollars for 2 hours of parking at harbourfront. Cos 1/2 hour of parking is $1 and thereafter too. You must be curious why we did not park at VIVO city carpark which is free of charge. Not becos we did not want it. The queue to the carpark is unbelieveable long and no movement of cars after waited for a few minutes. So we switch to the other carpark. But that does not make a difference too. We still need to queue. However as compared to the previous one, the queue is at least moving and not stagnant. Then after which, we go to alan's parent's house. And then I have played cards with Alan, Adeline and Ah Weng (3 A's). Hahaha! Sounds rhyming! After which, I have my dinner with Alan's parents, his cousin's parents, his cousin, Adeline and Ah Weng. The dinner is sumptuous cos it got my chilli kang kong, fried prawn and tie ban toufu. Sometimes you can be feeling so happy. At times you might be feeling sad or angry. All these emotions just come as and when they want, without you noticing it. I am feeling happy all of a sudden today because I make myself joke and play as much as I want. I have ppls to accompany and of cos, laughter is the best medicine in the world. This goes on until something breaks my happiness. My quiet moment come and as usual, my hubby is the first to notice it. He knows my trouble and my unhappiness. I do not like ppl to take away something that belongs to me. I do not like any things of mine to be disclosed to anyone. I hate the embarassing moment. I hate two-timer ppls. I love to do ppls a favour rather than get someone else to do so. ||12:10 AM||

"The only discipline that lasts is self-discipline." Bum Phillips, NFL Head Coach "One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation." Arthur Ashe, Wimbledon Champ Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do. John Wooden Set your goals high, and don’t stop till you get there. Bo Jackson The principle is competing against yourself. It’s about self-improvement, about being better than you were the day before. Steve Young To be prepared is half the victory. Miguel Cervantes Discipline is the whole key to being successful. We all get 24 hours each day. That's the only fair thing; it's the only thing that's equal.

Now left with so much markings needed to be done. Haiz... Lucky that I would be going for PSLE Marking Ex. next week. Not much teaching and marking to be done then, except to spend more time in another school to help in recording. Yippee! At least I will not be so stress. Hahaha!

Today it must be my most happy day. I suppose, even before the start of my lesson in school. My favourite student, Mubaraq comes to find me in the staff room and tells me that he will not be giving me any trouble for today as he says that he will make me happy. Since he knows it is my birthday, I believe that he will really make me happy by being on his best behaviour. Hopefully, he is well-behaved later on after hearing this. Currently, I am sitting at my cubicle. My mind keeps thinking of what to eat for dinner with my hubby today. Too excited to spend candlelight dinner with him. haha..Hopefully! If he manages to read this blog and get my hint. Today, Nisha, Kala, Lewis, and Chai Hong say 'Happy Birthday' to me. This is the best present. I am very happy. Hope Mubaraq can make me happy everyday and I can be full of smiles everyday. Heehee! Cheers, Brenda

I am so devastated at the midst of finding back my pink box in school today. This is the whole story: The moment when I reported in the morning at around 10 am, I just wanted to bring in all the stuffs from my pigeon hole outside the staff room. Just then, I noticed that there is only the paper bag there. I recalled that I asked my class monitor to bring down my paper bag together with my pink tool box containing my markers, paper clips, Incredi Reader Stamp, bell, pink highlighter, expensive red pen, and some other things. Suddenly, I felt so panicky. Where did the class monitor put my pink tool box. I have my paper bag intact at the pigeon hole. But no matter how much I looked into the pigeon hole, nothing in pink caught my eyes. I started searching at other teachers' pigeon hole. Then my pink tool box was not in sight too. I am calming my nervousness. I intended to go into staff room and checked out on my cubicle once again. Perhaps my class monitor helped me place on my table. But alas! Nothing is found as well. I started to think of possibilities. Maybe I did not ask the monitor to bring up to the staff room. It might be left in 3D classroom. So I made a trip to the classroom and seek Siti's permission to check on the teacher's table. Nothing was found again. This time, I found myself so sick. I knew I am having slight runny nose and lerthargic in the morning. If not, I will in school earlier than 10am to do my markings. My heart overrules my mind. I felt like losing my soul and felt numb all over my body. At the unpleasant moment, I gave up on marking. And I dun even start any markings. I am not motivated to do anything and just want to go into a deep sleep to calm my nerves. I decided to send a mass email to all my colleagues to kip a lookout for my pink tool box and even write this down on the whiteboard opened to all my colleagues. I have absolutely trust in this school that I can find back my stuffs. Cos the previous incident that I lost my thumbdrive in this school and it was found back. Unlike my previous practicum school, I lost two thumbdrives and none was found back. Feeling rather cold, I looked for Nisha, my best friend. She asked me to go back which coincided with my feelings as well. I was tired to say anything but still told her about how I felt. I had ulcers in my whole mouth, and oso did not have any appetite at all. I wanted to tell the doctor to give me two days MC. I got an MC for today nia. I stay at home, crying and slept for hours from 1pm to 7pm. Then my hubby came back and drove me to eat at Rail Mall there. All this while, I am worried about my Class pupils' studies. And I cannot be so selfish too. I know that I can be easily breakdown and even cry easily. Who wants to cry? Why the person who steal my things just does not have a heart at all. Other teachers place their personal belongings - their bags in pigeon hole and it was not lost at all. Why all this cruel things jus happen to me? Why I am treated so unfairly? I am in tears from 1pm right up to 7pm. and now currently, tears still dripping down as I am writing. My soul is lost in the wanders and pls dun ask me anything about my pink tool box. I deceived myself that I have found back but it does not work at all. My birthday wish that I made during my celebration on 8th October was simply 'Everyone must be in pink health.' Now I want to add in a new wish. My additional wish for my birthday: I want to keep everything that belongs to me including the pink tool box. I know that the moment I said it out, it may not be true. But the pink tool box cannot be found back le, given 1 day allowance for me. I knew it right at the start but stupid me, still constant thinking of it. I found that I could not grow up too. Simple things like this can depressed me. But not i wanted de, uncontrollable to me. I hope that I will be consoled and someone to stand by my side at this moment. Someone to have the same feelings as me. Really, I jus want that! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ||9:36 PM||

Seems like I am older by one year. Cannot believe it but to really think that I am older. Now age does not matter to me anymore. I can even happy-go-lucky to say that I am celebrating "50 da shou". I don't mind too. How many candles on the cake does not mind at all? As long as I have my birthday celebration is all I wanted. Heehee... That is the never grown up 'Brenda'. That's me! I love all the gifts given to me and those who are present at my birthday party too. They really spend the time to come down and join me in the joyful event. Thanks so much.

Just for the curiousity of some of my friends, the ranking of presents (Available for the TOP 4 Ranking nia) are as follows: (1st) My mum paid the Hi-tea buffet for me that cost nearly 400 dollars. And somemore is the Four Seasons (Famous for its hi-tea) (2nd) Alan gives me the most support in cleaning the house and allow me to be free of household cleaning and make me a princess for today.

Just nice I am in need of a mattress cover so that I can change mine too. And of course, have a good sleep. I like my best friend, Katherine who gives me the pink precious moments cushion. Just suitable and sweet for my new car. So that I can hug as and when I want to. One is enough, lucky she is the only one who gives me. If not, too many cushions at my hse.

I am so devastated and drain out of energy by this child, Mubaraq. Just call his mum and inform her of his doings. He disturb his friends around him, tell lies to me, disrupt my lesson and simply don't pay attention. He is well-known in our school for his behaviour. Every teacher walks pass me will ask me how is Mubaraq in your class. Cos previous 2 teachers who take him in their class cannot control him at all. And now he is crying outside the staff room. This is because I call his mum and he is most scared of his mum and dad. They will cane him everytime any teachers call. I try not to call his mum for weeks and now my endurance level drops. I cannot believe that he does not understand the concept of 2m = 200cm and insist that 2m = 2000cm. He ranks the highest mark in my class and consider to be first place in class position. Even the whole class correct him that 2m = 200cm. Mayb he is joking. I ignore that. Then come his funny and irritating acts. He can make my heart boil. He makes animal noises. I try to tape down his voice and would like him to hear it. But this is no use. k...updates again....Now time for my class le ... ||4:27 PM||

This time, my first entry in October. Trying to finish typing in 3 minutes time and I will be going out for dinner with him. I have done a lot of things during the past 3 days. I have done my marking for composition, lesson plans and even updates on my class website - www.wvps3d.blogspot.com Finally, I got my new car. My hubby and I went on a car spree to a few places. And I got my colleague a birthday gift too. Somemore I booked the Hi-Tea buffet and confirmed with most of my friends about my birthday celebration. I even drew a dolphin to ask the cakeshop auntie to help me fax over to the bakers to check if they can help me draw the design on my birthday cake. Simply wonderful and amazing that the cakeshop auntie told me that my design is praised by some of her customers. Even they confirmed that the design can be done with 2kg of cake. Previously I ordered 1.5kg, have to upgrade to 2kg. Of course, I asked for a discount from the auntie and she was someone who can be negotiated. ||6:30 PM||
