eNtErtAinMeNt?

there was a minor technical glitch at the com lab today and my CT had gone to get help. I was left alone with the class who was literally bringing the room down with their noise. I rack my brains for a simple game to play and to try to entertain them so that they remain quiet. "Class while we wait for the technician let me do something to entertain you all...." opps maybe i shouldn't have phrased it that way.... and true enough one the boys shouted "Ms tay are you going to sing or are you going to dance?" Then i pouted and tapped the marker in my hand harder into my left palm and exclaimed that i was not going to do either.... and the boy mimicked my exact actions while the rest all broke out in laughter
you may be wondering why i even bother to put this up. afterall it isn't nice to be laughed at isn't? but that 5 mins spent doing the little game helped to break the ice a little and got them to open up... always nice to see them smiling and responding to me again... hope this makes classes next week more smooth going or maybe i can consider slotting in a little salsa or a rendition of twinkle twinkle little star? =P

hey i survived the first day of school! started off the day with a couple of suay events... arrived at the bus stop to see my bus zip right pass me... security guard from tkgs trying to be funny and chat me up (这么久没有见到你，我以为你没有教书了，我在Tampines看到你了. duh? so what?）
surprise surprise we have a total of 10 new teachers with 2 more coming in! vp was at a loss trying to introduce the whole lot of us to the school... everyone is busy busy so i and LL were "appointed" to bring the rest around the school compound, familiarise with school matters, get transponders, find HODs, get things zapped... ha ha ha i am da jie da =P
believe me when i say that the staffroom is literally bursting at its seams with teachers, some of the newbies even had to sit in the pantry... i have a proper seat although its location is nothing to rave about, its in a narrow walkway besides the main entrance and the air con is right behind me... bad 杀气 ，风水不好
was nice to see plenty of familiar faces in the classes, especially when a couple of them dropped by the staffroom to wave and exclaim Ms Tay Ms Tay remember us? and students smiling to me when i pass them by... ha ha feel like a star (暗爽，哈哈哈！）
