pre-vacation chores

At last, another break for me and hubby. We will go somewhere near as calendar is not giving us a long school break or anything close to that. Plus, the tuition centre is still open for tuition on the Sat, which it's supposed to be a holiday, dont know for what reason, on the day. So, i need to off myself and hubby needs to off himself as well from any work commitments for the next three days. Totally OFF.



But again, my mind still could not put the works down even til the last minute before we board the flight tonite and ended up I'm preparing the teaching plan for this coming Sat. I'll be back on Wed nite and i have another 2 full days but i just feel that i need to at least start off and if possible, finish off the teaching plan first. at least. I still have a lot of markings to do and it's endless i tell you. Thinking about it would make me headache already.

I promise my hubby and myself that this time, i must have a good short yet meaningful vacation and that means VACATION and BREAK. Not like the last two months when i still need to pack all the report cards of students to go together with me back home to Perth. Two weeks were not enough then.

Okay. Getting myself back to work now. Or else, i'll just dream for a good vacation in Singapore tonight in hotel with all my works scattering on the bed with me.

Happy 3-days holiday~Safe and sound all of you out there ^_^

Today is an OK day

hehehe...today i feel alrite. I feel better actually. I had a lot of mood swings and i believed that happen to all the females out there. Thanks for DH to be supportive, loving and caring for me.

Now, out of the norm, i am going to post some very random stuffs i just found in my computer. Some masterpieces done by others instead of me. i have no talent or watsoever that could be shown off. At times, i really admire the talents people have and with their hands, they can make the world seems to be a much more beautiful and meaningful place to live in.

Taa daa, i now present to you my mom in law's masterpiece:


CUTE OR NOT??!?!?!?? I found them too cute to be put into mouth and munch them..i did eat one in the end though..couldn't resist the pao...mainly=P

And, this is my sister, Karen's version (sorrie mek, couldn't help but to post them up for you..they're VERY cute too..in a way):


The fatter version...which is still cute right? People always say pig is cute..so i guess a fat tortoise is cute too. ^o^

Another masterpiece from sister:


I am so proud of her. We used to only knit scarves when winters were almost hitting..like two months before. Since when she advances herself knitting this mobile phone pocket...i dont know. It was so well done that i had to rub my eyes twice looking at it, flipping it back and forth trying to look for any flaws i could possibly find..hahaha.You're good! *thumbs up*

i think she will strangle me when i go back to Perth next time but dont care. Post it up first:


i make the size smaller already..comparing to the others. ^_^

Now, bomb me lor.... X_X"

Little changes

I haven't done any update for the month July due to some reasons.

Firstly, I had "half quitted" my job as an English teacher. I am now teaching only 2 classes instead of 4 in a week. I am happy with the change of course but i'm not sure if it's a good idea. I've became a slacker since then. I can never finish marking students' exercises pending from 3 weeks ago...I was and am not self motivated.

Apart from that, i really appreciate to have regain my freedom from my stupid contracted agreement so much now!!! Another 4 long months to go before it really ends...I am waiting...

Another thing is that...i'm feeling sick and sian and faint and frustrated and everything ON and OFF. That's part of my reasons being such a slacker. I cant put myself together to do my chores and whatever that i need to do. I feel lack of energy and motivation, again.

Hopefully, i'll feel better soon. I need my life back.

Fear

so true. so real. from deep within. for that moment, my body was trembling and i felt so faint. at that moment, i thought i would have to say byebye to one of my fingers.

one of my poor fingers had a very bad slice today not from knife, scissors nor anything that u could think of. a fish hates me. it fully used its scales and mercilessly sliced my flesh into halves.

i thought of taking the picture when i took off the bandage but i dont want to put you off from my blog. i took one with the bandage on. believe me. after i trimmed off the excessive flesh near the wound, it looks like a sea cliff now. deep sea cliff. the crack is putting-myself-off big.






那該死的魚!

a total mac supporter we are

Hubby got a new mac in addition to our mac desktop today.It's so cute.Whitish. Small.Elegant.So feminine look.Macbook it is.I believe mac is way better than PC.I am not a racist.I do have a laptop myself.So problematic.Now and then pop out virus updates.Anti-virus updates.After closing programs, screen freeze asking to send report. =_=" I think deep inside me, i started to hate windows.

Mac meets my need for being so helpful and non-problematic most of all.


I enjoy the light from that 1/4 bitten apple.


Love the keypad as well.So clear cut.Clean & tidy. Leave no space for dust and food drops.

*Thumbs up*

阿嬌 Ah Giu

Dang dang dang dang~ present to you the new addition to the family:

Her name is Ah Giu. A common local breed doggie. No no..not that one. The black one =_="



Dont know why..Ah Giu looks fierce in this picture but she really isn't.


Apologise for the blur picture but once she moved, the picture went blur. Thanks to camera phone.


Compared to our Tsih Tsu dog..Ah Giu is real small in size.


They like to share..well, not really. Ah Giu likes to share but Xiao Hei doesn't. She has no choice.



She sleeps like nobody cares.


Her favourite is to nib on your fingers.


She loves it..and she can pretend she isn't aware what she's doing.

We dont know exactly how old she is but she only looks like 5-6 weeks old to me. By this age, she can do a lot (a lot indeed) stuffs already. She knows how to climb down and up staircases, jump over drains, stop and sit outside door steps waiting for you to pick her up again, share food with another dog without another dog's consent. She is alert of the sound from doors opening and she never fails to follow you whenever you walk to somewhere. Up til now, no one doesn't love her.

good times in Perth

As usual, my alarm clock woke up earlier than me this morning and i still couldn't get to continue with my students' report cards that should be handed in right after the holiday ends. And, I am here updating blog. Finally, i'm back in Perth (too bad that it's not for good) and it feels so great. I miss this place. My home. You wouldn't know how i hope i can just miss the flight or play MIA with the tuition school back in Kuching. But, life tells me i can't. It's stupid.

My hubby is with me this time and we had such wonderful times visiting back those spots that we went when we were still couple. All the memories just flowed back in our heads. We had gatherings and met our friends and man..it feels like i don't know how long i've been away for. I miss them. We went to our church. We met our bros and sisters and our beloved Aunty Kim. She's getting skinnier. She welcomes us back with that forever big smile on her face like the world is of no worries. I miss her too.

Most of all, i love being at home. Looking at those corners, i can recall what i did before. Looking into my patio, I recalled my gorgeous Lab X GR Benson staring back at me with the head slightly tilted, pretending to look innocence. I miss those times. I miss Benson. I miss Mom. I miss siblings. I miss every bits here and there in Perth. At home. Outside.

It will never be the same again. At least, not for now. Three more days and at this hour, i'll be in airport again waiting to board the flight back to Kuching. Kuching is good. Family is good. In fact, everything is well prepared and i can live a good life without worries there. I will be getting used to a new home. Treat everyone my family member as well. Love them dearly as well.

Heart is tearing. Physically strong. I need that to walk on. But, patience is a virtue. I will be back. Not long to go. I am counting down. Day by day.
Adios for now.
