Happy New Year, Happy V-day, Happy Birthdays

Time flew by again, since the last entry and so did the holidays and special events.
Gone is Lunar New Year (Boo Hoo...)
Gone is V-day (no big deal, heh heh)
Gone are 3 birthdays (Hon, Sis and JM)

Is it just us teachers or are the years passing by very quickly?
Each academic year seems to zoom by faster and faster...
Its already Term 1 Week 8...
Jeez...

And hey. I think I am stressed.

SITUATION 1
This morning, i woke up, stared into my alarm clock which says 5.32am. I literally jumped out of bed, thinking its Monday and how I haven't done my lesson plan, and that I am SO DEAD! (coz i wouldn't be able to submit on time) I dashed to my laptop and slammed on the 'on' button, thinking i must quickly do the lesson plan.
It took me maybe 10 secs to realise that perhaps it was not Monday... think i was dazed for a little while, trying to figure out whether its Sunday or Monday...

SITUATION 2
I hurt my nerve, according to my Dad and he was doing tui na on me. But throughout the session, I kept thinking about the target goals i have to edit and send to my colleague. Finally I asked Dad whether its over and if i could go back to do my work...
As i was doing the final editing, could almost feel the adrenaline rushing through me ... need to send, need to send...
After i hastily finished and sent, i felt ravenous.
Ate porridge (for lunch) ate chips, love letters, chocolate cake, fruits... and literally everything on the kitchen table. Its the attack of the unsatiable hunger (which i HATE!) And i didn't even feel full or satisfied at the end of it...

Oh man. I'm not sure how pple define stress but maybe those are indications of stress for me...
I wasn't even in the mood to meet HX last night...

I'm now looking forward to watching gory Sweeney Todd with meiren
And dreaming about the $2 Gloria Jean coffee i'm gonna have (hope to unwind at Suntec soon... haha)
And that I'm gonna get a couple more pairs of cheap Yoga Pants from Carrefour to wear on P.E days (my work uniform! hee haw!)

Well, Friday was Siang's last day. She was so sweet to have prepare gifts for EVERY staff in the school. I received a very nice necklace from her =)
Also helped her for 2 hrs with her class party as she prepared so much food and gifts for them...
(i feel almost grateful for my current class... some of the boys in that class are so noisy i wanna strangle them)
We also treated her to dinner at Thai Express, pretty nice (esp the Kailan with mushroom) and she bought us Yami Yoghurt (*slurp*)
Talked till 9 plus before we headed back home. (9 plus is LATE k... for a person who woke up at 5 and worked till 5pm. Haha)
Will miss her lots and lots.

And if you read Sunday Times today about the ultra-marathon (84km), that's the one I signed up for! But I'm just gonna try 42km of coz... When I showed Dad, he got pretty excited and wanted to buy the Zao Bao to read about it. (He thought that Chinese papers feature the same stories... haha)

Anywayz... think after meeting the parents and also TP from Muah, will feel a little less stressed. Kinda feel more motivated because Muah is my Supervisor, but also abit more stressed. But anyway, know that i will learn alot from her. So... i must count my blessings!
