很佩服各位老師

距離自由行還有一個月左右. 越來越緊張了!
怕行程會太緊湊. 旅行還是輕鬆一點比較好.
今晚備課, 突然發現原來下星期是復活節 long weekend.
那當然要準備多一點好玩的功課給我的學生囉 XD
這星期主要要完成這單元的課程與活動.
有幾個學生已經做完, 要找點事情給他們做才行.
當老師真的不容易, 我只是星期六早上教小孩幾個小時.
認識一個朋友剛開始在高中當 full-time 老師, 真的很佩服她.
不能忽略教學重點, 又要課程有趣….
除了上班時間, 下班之後還是要做很多很多準備.
難怪說老師薪水太低了.

Life Without Limbs

This guy in the video below - Nick Vujicic - was our school captain back in primary school (same year as me). He was school captain for Macgregor State School in 1995, and I also gave my vote for him to be our school captain.
At the time he was already a very cheerful person. [...]

和爸爸一起修電腦

今天時間過得滿快的.
可能是因為電腦出問題的關係吧.
晚上繼續 trouble-shoot….. 很難找出問題.
花了兩三個小時時間, program 總算都ok了.
好累…. 明天在慢慢找出原因好了….
雖然修電腦很累, 不過我真的很喜歡跟我爸一起弄電腦.
記得大學的時候常常跟我爸學電腦.
那時候跟現在都讓我覺得很幸福~

Book store discounts

oday we have a Borders 35% off voucher~
Imagine how much they earn!
Giving out vouchers encourages people to buy more books.
They would be earning lots on quantity and with a slightly smaller profit margin.
I wonder how cheap the distribution price is…
It’s amazing how if the price starts at $20, it’s expensive.
But if the price [...]

小孩需要父母的支持

以下是一篇我教中文領悟到的一些感想…
今天, 終於有些小孩做完他們的遊戲卡片 project 了, 也開始跟其他同學玩遊戲登分囉! 還是有幾個小孩進度有點慢, 也有一些這幾個星期連家課都沒做. 父母需要明白現在小孩是讀一年級了, 不再是幼稚園. 如果他們不跟孩子一起複習的話, 小孩子會追不上的. This is partly because each week we only have a limited time of 2.5 hrs to cover the many things the kids need to learn. Yes, it’s stressful for everyone, but we have no choice.
有個小孩子其實很聰明, 可是他不喜歡學中文的樣子. 他說是爸爸強迫他來學中文的, 而且還說要讀中文讀到大學 (我自己也是讀到十二年級的). Obviously she didn’t like the [...]

Life is so vulnerable

Tonight, we witnessed an accident…..
Walked on the pathway, near Hard Rock Cafe.
*screeeeech*
*BOOM!*
*turn around*
“OMG” was most people’s reaction.
Stayed till emergency services arrived. Around 10 mins? By the time police was here, there were over 100 people standing around the intersection. I’m sure they don’t know who to ask for witness anyway, and won’t believe that people [...]

想人生

休閒平靜的一天. 中文班, 下學期將會是一個很大的挑戰.
午餐時跟叔叔聊天, reinforce 要往五年後十年後想真的很重要…
看dvd~
去借了 Shrek 2 dvd, 可是那片dvd畫面一直跳, quality很差 (還虧那是正版的咧). 只好去還給 video shop. 既然 Shrek 2 看不成, 那就看 “左眼見到鬼” 這部港片~ 我印象中只看過兩三遍, 可是我好像記得電影很多的內容 o_O maybe I watched bits n pieces at other times….
看衛星電視~
香港電台的 “春田花花” 什麼節目 (McMug McDull 那個). 用幽默的方法來介紹中國文化. 紙, 廁紙, 清明節, 掃墓. 超喜歡 McDull 說的那句話. 他說看到媽媽丟紙錢之後開始哭 (當時在掃墓), 他就跟媽媽說: “不用哭, 丟掉的只是假的紙錢.” LOL! 他看不懂媽媽是在想念外婆.
“向世界出發” 繼續上星期曾志偉去 Brunei [...]
