and most of all, what is a sports school without....

Water cooler~!

Was walking around when I notice this notice,

Reminds me of Russel Peters' "Be a Man, and do the right thing" :D

What if I prefer to be a Woman?

1st day

First day of school, and it feels as though I'm revamping back to how I was when i started Teaching Practise... After school come back drop dead on bed kind of life, or should I say, no-life.

super tired...
think I must be really thankful that my schedule has so much PE, they call it natural slimming, I call it reduced stress from academic results.

De-stressed by eating...
*cham ar cham*
got to stop it.

Anyway, todays been great,
Really thank God for the arrangement.

I'm taking 2 classes of Pri 5 PE that I had pre-aquantiance with.
Why is it important? Bcos in teaching the higher level, its alot about winning the kids over.
Just happens that 1 class are the ones that I took for the Pri 5 camp, and another I did a relief class and happened to teach them some interesting lessons on science. :)

as for the Pri 4... well, they just need some time before they warm up to me. :)

Received a big bomb today.
In the structure of a school, there is this "Subject Committee" thing, e.g: Eng Comm, Math Comm, Nation Education n Social Studies Comm and Science Committee.
So each committee is made up by selected teachers of each level.
of the teachers represented in each level, 1 will be chosen out to be the level rep, that is usually a role covered by a experience teacher, or at least someone whos been around and know whats been happened.
One teacher is leaving and another teacher is highly involved in the IT side of the whole sci affair.
So instead of getting that experience teacher who is highly involved in the IT side, they choose me...
I'll be involved in infantry, Resource purchasing, coordination, etc etc. when it comes to Pri 4 science, i'll most probably be the 1st one to relay too.


Was just reviewing how I learnt science back then,
Raise your hand if you are one of those who goes through the system of "Im going to point out to you the important parts, underline them and memorize them"
Thats what I went through.
I am eagerly looking forward to engage my students in science through powerpoint and videos... I pray that time permits.

All in all, im thankful for the things and arrangement that has happened, :) the extensive PE lessons has its advantages, the Sci comm position calls for greater stretch in the development of me as a person. Being propelled to a position that no one would ask or will be given.

Guess it certainly does fulfills the purpose of me being there.
Isn't it true that we are hired to play a role, fill a gap and meet a need? :)

Like I always say,
If not now, then when?

He said His grace is sufficient. so shall it be.

God says it, I believe it, that settles it.

How yours life?

Be Bless~

24th June

updaTE update~
got pics but no-time to update... :D
last day of my 21st year,

Wanted to get a tattoo for the 21st mark,
Wanted to take indoor n outdoor pictures for the 21st mark, also didnt...

Today while waiting for choir to gather,
I approached 2 choir sisters,
"Quick Quick give me a hug"
"cos tomorrow's my birthday"
:D

One of them hug me so tight (it was before i told her wats it for) that after releasing me I almost had to visit the ladies, cos i tot I've become an A cup...

:D

But seriously!
If I dont appreciate you as someone I know, If I dont appreciate the time i had with you,
I wouldnt stick out my hand and ask for a gift hao ma!
You I dont have to be around me often.
But your gift, that I can place in my personal place, when I look at it it would remind me of you.
:(

And someone whom I asked for a gift told me, "where got people ask for present one. "
Bu yao gei jiu suan le...

Happy Birthday Amanda Val Ng, 22 years old le. Birthday on the 1st day of you being a teacher, what more can you ask for?
May you grow to be as beautiful as God first think of you.
Remember, you are fearfully and wonderfully made,
When people mock at you, laugh at your ways, remember, God is your avenger, dont take things into your hands, let Him justify you, let Him fight for you.

Maybe this mid-year bonus really go get a tattoo and my Digital Camera!!!
Hahaha!

thanks for spending time~

Be Bless!

idols

Eze 14:4
“Therefore speak to them, and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “Everyone of the house of Israel who sets up his idols in his heart, and puts before him what causes him to stumble into iniquity, and then comes to the prophet, I the LORD will answer him who comes, according to the multitude of his idols,

Finally got time to talk about this le...

Ever been in a situation when you really want something, and its kind of like sitting on the fence?
Spiritually you know its not so good for you, but you really really wanted it? Prayed and prayed about it, once, twice and three time, then finally you got a feeling that it is approved and you went straight into it?
Ends up, its not really one of the best choice you've made, you tot "I thought the Lord approve le, how come His blessing doesnt flow"

:)
this is exactly what this verse is about.

wat are idols in the verse? Or idols in general for most of the matter in the bible?
We are to reverend God and put Him the highest in our lives. be it in deed or in heart.
Idols doesnt just refer to wooden statues that is set up at the altars. Idols also refer to the things that we set in out hearts that is place in a higher position than God in our hearts. For example Greed and Pride.

"causes him to stumble into iniquity" thats when the sitting at the fence comes in. lets use the idol Greed. lets say to eat company money, not say in big amount, just small small figures and fiddling here and there. Just nice one is in a bad finance situation. "God will understand one". One in the right stand will be able to believe for God's providence. but the other, :)

"Coming to the prophet" people in the Old Testament will seek a prophet to ask of the Lord in prayers, for us in the New Testament we can pray and seek for our own.

and so the Lord say "I will answer him according to the multitudes of the idols"
meaning He will give u to your heart desires.
Cos He allows freewill.
Cos the choice was not first made to obey Him with gladness of heart.

Just like Balaam, he was offered honor and riches to help the king curse Israel. The Lord already said Israel is a blessed nation.
1st time he asked, the Lord said no, so he denied.
2nd time he asked, the offer was raised, the Lord said no, so he denied
3rd time he asked, the offer was raised yet again. He served the King, and so the anger of the Lord was aroused.

anything of that matter has happened in your life?

"Cos the choice was not first made to obey Him with gladness of heart."

alrighty

Thanks for spending time~
