I just went to the hair salon and now I have beautiful, beautiful smooth hair. :) But, I left the salon with a backache. I sat in the chair from 3 pm to 7 pm. Sigh.. I need a massage to soothe the knot in my back. But I have to be like barbie the next few days. I can't tie my hair; I can't tuck it behind my ears and you know I am very bothered by the heat!!! I often tie my hair up. I can't stand having hair in my face! Thus I can't even go to my favourite Indonesian spa.. sigh.. now I sound like a bimbo... hahaha well who cares ;)
Anyway, I signed my guides up for the BP quest. My wonderful guides sat for the test yesterday. On Sat, we will learn about the results. Only 5 teams will get into the finals. I really hope we would be one of them. It is our first time taking part in this competition.
I just finished reading this book, 'Cry wolf' by Patricia Briggs. It is such as cool book. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. It is about werewolves and the story is very fast-paced with lots of action and fascinating characters. It is also a love story and it's really sweet. I can't wait to get my hands on another of her novels. Currently, I am reading another book which I purchased some time ago: 'Neverwhere'by Neil Gailman. It is also a fantasy book about a place which is found under the streets of London where monsters, knight and weird creatures roam the place. It is just getting interesting and intriguing.
Today, there was a huge sale at all my favourite shops: Warehouse, Miss Selfridge, Topshop. I will get 40% off all purchases if I utter the word 'closet therapy' to the cashier. I was so excited but knowing me. I am just plain unlucky! I couldn't find anything. Well, it is hard to find nice clothes when your hair is falling all over your face. :( I should have look harder but I was feeling down. I always shopped with my hubby but today I was all alone. Now I miss him. It is just more fun with him around, helping me pick out clothing and carrying my bags. We will joke and I will clown around and be my blithe, childish self. Sigh.
I bought my dinner at Whampos-Century egg porridge and some veg and ate it while watching the 'Little Nonya'. I like the show although I dislike any shows about WW2. I hate to watch shows about the Japs invading Singapore. They are always so gruesome and there's bound to be rape scenes and gore. Anyway, now they are still showing the pre-jap part so I guess I will still watch it.

Attention all 5B pupilsYou can come to my place via Bus 53 from Bishan interchange station. When the bus turns into Lor Ah Soo Estate, you are already very near. Keep a lookout for PLMGSS on your right and a park on your left and an overhead bridge ahead and get off at the bus stop just next to the bridge. Then pls cross the road and walk straight towards the flats. I think my block, Blk 135 is the fifth block. I am not posting my address here because I am not comfortable about releasing my Add on the internet. I have smsed some of you my exact address. You can check with Zong Da, Er Yang, Wen Hui, Aminah, Darren Ang.
See you then next week. Pls let me know if you are coming. I dun want to get too much food. I hate leftovers. So far only 15 of you responded. I am also getting some halal food for the Muslim pupils.

I have been having diarrhoea. I had it on Mon and I had it today. I thought about it when I was grimacing in pain in my toilet today and I realised what was wrong. I realised that the pain started whenever I had to eat with my fingers. You see. On Mon, before I reported to the Guide house for the BP quest, I ate at Subway and I didn't wash my hands before I fingered my sandwich. Today, at the Prelimanry round of the BP Quest, while my guides were taking the test, I dropped by J8 again and today I ate a MOS burger set and again ate with my fingers. My hands were really dirty especially after grabbing my my steering wheel. Sigh.. I must remind myself to wash my hands before I eat.
Today, after the BP quest, I went back to school because I had to retrieve some info from my school computer. After I have done that, I went to AMK Hub NTUC. I am inviting my class to my place next week and I needed to get some stuff.
I met the most obnoxious lady when I was buying some Bengawan snacks for my grandma. She was so fastidious and insisted that the staff give her the freshest pandan cake in the shop. She spoke in a loud, annoying voice. I stared at her and I saw her glittering diamond rolex. So typical.. so ostentatious!!! diamond rolex!!! oh come on.... Everyone has a rolex now especially the sales staff at Tangs. I think that is their reward for being loyal Tang staff! When she insisted on checking her Panda cake one more time, I espied the sales staff roll her eyes slightly. I saw it but the box cover had hidden her expression from the obnoxious lady. I had to stifle a laugh!
Anyway, my hubby is overseas again. The funny thing is that I dun miss him that much. I guess I am getting used to him leaving me for short periods of time. Two weeks ago, when he was in London, we didn't even sms each other much let alone call each other. Now he is in Vietnam, he called me.. I think being distant and nonchalant about him not being around has made him a little anxious and he has been more proactive with his smsing this time round.

Time really flies. I said my final good bye to my class 5b and EL class 43. Actually it's not farewell, I do hope that I will get to see them soon.
All the pupils look gorgeous and handsome! Darren look so suave like an actor. Melvin and Zul, my favourite twin towers looked really good too. Daniel's suit was awesome so stylo-milo!!! Of course, there were some 'brave' souls- Er Yang and John... you know what I mean. haha
As for the gals, I like Yilin's pretty golden dress! Jeanette looked elegant too. I found Clara and Yi Qing totally transformed. They looked so good.
I took a lot of photos with my pupils. I am going to 'steal' the photos from their blogs. :)

Dear Jobi
I am feeling better nowadays. I still think of you everyday and sometimes it makes me smile in amusement and sometimes it leaves me feeling rather sad! How I love you, my darling! Mum and dad still speak of you. For the past two Sundays, Cal and I went fishing with mum and dad. The first Sunday we were out, I was still rather glum because you just passed away then. I kept thinking of you and how much I miss you. I even imagine you there with us on the boat. I remember once, we brought you out on dad's boat and how you loved it. You were the only dog in the family who was given a boat ride. You were smiling widely. You loved the wind in your hair. You looked so good.
Jobi, guess what! We made a calendar to remember you. It looked so good and beautiful! We chose the nicest pictures of you when you were happy and smiley! I made one for mum and dad too and they loved it. I made a pretty cup of your pics too. Now I drink from it everyday. I have also made a mousepad bearing your pic too.
Jobi, last Sunday, we went fishing and we caught a lot of fishes. Dad left his fishing rod in the bracket which was attached to the boat. The fish that was caught must have been a mammoth one for it ripped the bracket off the pole and the whole fishing rod was dragged into the sea. The poor fish.. it will not survive with such a heavy rod attached to it. Dad lost his $100 fishing rod. Mum and Cal also caught a big fish each. Mum also caught 2 baby sharks which we released back into the waters. I caught 7 small fishes. Actually a few more, but i released them back into the water because they were tiny. Anyway, we had a lot of fun
Russell and Bub are doing ok. Rus seems a little sad and he does not have an appetite. We didn't realise that Rus is as elderly as you. You always seem much older. Now that you are gone, Rus seems so old. He walks at a snail's pace and he seems to have aged so much. We must shower him with lots of love. He must miss you immensely too.
I have new English Class 32. They are rather nice just a tad chatty. I miss 5B. I hope they do well in the exams.
