i got my results today! remember that i was lamenting about my SIM lecturer, complaining about how low her assignments were... well... it seems she really did pull down most of our grades... T.T but lucky i think my exams were not that bad.. but still, as the weightage of the exam marks and assignments were 50% each.. the assignments still pulled down my grade...

aniway.. here's it...


An Introduction To The Humanities I
Results: B- ( this the module which the lecturer gave low assignment grades)

Thinking with Mathematics
Results: A+ ( this was a piece of cake.. as maths has always been my forte area, and i cleared the exam beri fast.. was the 1st to leave the room)

Overall.. quite happy.. but still lamenting over the B-... lol... dun worry.. i be ok in a while.. juz let mi whine and grumble for the moment... LOL...

Yesterday, our sch had our end of June Hols staff meeting ... and i was informed that i was to be a cooperating teacher (CT) for a NIE trainee teacher(TT)... means i have to guide her along... a bit stressed sia... lol.. but hope i can help her...lol...

after a whole day of meeting... Mother Tongue Chinese Department went for a gelling makan and farewell dinner session for 2 of our colleagues at JUMBO seafood at serangoon gardens... it was a treat by our HOD... and the food was really nice... it's been quite some time since the whole department sat down in such a relaxed ambience.. chatting and having dinner away... quite like this feeling..

but.. beri sad that 2 of our colleagues are leaving us for greener pastures..will definitely miss them a lot...esp Klera.. she has been a great help and friend-mentor ever since i entered this sch... hope the 2 of them will have a wonderful time in their new schs...

Hubby got mi a Bangkok shopping trip as a b-day gift.. was beri happy to get away from SG during the hols.. and the trip was fully sponsored.. however due to work commitments... he could only get away only after 11/6, so we went for the trip from 12/6 to 17/6.... and we booked the hotel quite late... so in the end couldn't get the hotel we wanted...had to settle for another hotel... but we were quite skeptical about this other hotel... it's like... all the other hotels fully booked... then this one still have vacancies.. ahem... weird weird de... =X

Thursday - 12/6

We left SG at ard 10.55am in the morning and reached the hotel at ard 2+pm BKK time... the hotel lobby looks normal... but the hotel was situated right inside a small lane.. then we checked in... got the keys.. and went to the room.. the room was not well lit.. however it was quite spacious..clean toilet etc... After settling in... then mi and Hubby set off to MBK shopping center... the last time we came to BKK... our hotel was within walking distance to MBK.. so this time.. we decided to try walking again... but then... it's so far and hot... after reaching MBK... i was totally hot and flustered... and it was decided... for these few days...i will not walk to MBK animore... it's either tuk-tuk or taxi for mi le...

after reaching MBK... we went to walk walk... then settled for our meal at Oishi Teppanyaki... we had the teppanyaki the last time we came to BKK.. and i really missed the taste... hehe... so nice.. but then .. was bz eating and forgot to take pics again... after eating... we went walk walk again... and then back to the hotel for resting... cos was quite tired after the plane ride... i will cry and sniffer on the plane... cos... when it goes up or lands.. the air pressure will make mi feel beri not well.. and migraines will "seek" for mi...

Friday - 13/6

We woke up quite late in the morning... and we missed the breakfast... but aniway... went thru reviews of the hotel, the breakfast was not that good though... so missed also nvm.. haha... we walked to Platinum Wholesale center which was fortunately quite near our hotel... along the way.. we experienced BKK famous traffic jams ..sometimes i quite admire BKK drivers... their drving techniques... can be quite power sometimes.. no matter how small the lane.. they can also squeeze thru...and they can zip in and out of traffic so smoothly... if u can drive in bangkok.. i think u can drive aniwhere in the world... LOL
Hubby on the overhead bridge...
and 1 thing i like about BKK? the cabs are so bright and colourful... purple.. green.. blue... and pink! i wan pink cabs in SG too... LOL
after reaching Platinum...we wanted to have lunch.. but then... couldn't stand the smell lingering in the food court... so ended up eating KFC...then we went ard to shop shop for the whole afternoon.... Platinum has 5 storeys for shopping... and it's really big... each storey has lotsa shops... after combing 3 storeys... i was beri tired... decided to take a short rest... and we ended up at Swenson's... and ordered ice cream.. hehe... to battle the hot weather... and we slacked there for a while...

After resting... we went back to comb the remaining 2 storeys... and bought more things again... then we went back to the hotel.. put our things.. and went back to the hotel cafe for dinner... and i ordered a tom yum set... hoping for nice and spicy tom yum soup.. but then... 1st tom yum disappointment for the trip....
