Dr Charles Chew!

I just wanted to blog about this really much. I have a super wonderful teacher in nie! hehe. He is dr charles chew. The way he engages us in his lessons really makes me go WOW. he is so fun, so friendly, so knowledgeable... too bad my vocabulary is limited else I will really praise him like mad! He was HOD and VP before, and he has even written a text book for physics that the studetns are using now. You see, he is so professional and high up there in his career yet he has no airs around him. He laughed with us during our micro-teaching, make funny jokes and is very very encouraging!

Had my micro teaching today and before I presented, he said that i looked very nervous. Act i was a bit nervous but half the time I was trembling cause the room was too cold. Then he just told me not to be nervous, just present whatever i have prepared. So sweet of him lah. Then at the end of my microteaching, he commented that it was very good cause improved alot from the trial microteaching! I was the only person to get the comment "very good" from him! I dont think it was cause i did better than the rest, it was cause he wanted to encourage me cause of my nervousness! And i thought that was real kind and sweet of him. :)

Just one last month in NIE, then im off for a month of june holidays, after which, it would be "hell time" cause its gonna be 10 weeks of practicum. And i heard that i would have to write lesson plans every single day of my life there. OMG. Dreading it. Wondering what i can do during the june holidays to make it a fruitful one? I think i will prob go source for useful teaching materials and do my tys!! haha.. hopefully i wont nua the entire hols away :P

These few days we've been looking for a suitable hotel for our wedding next year. There were lots of ups and downs during the entire process. It is really not easy to find a perfect venue that gives me everything that i want - a perfect name of the hotel, available date, with good food and good ambience, and reasonable price. My dream was to hold it at shangri-la hotel, and to me, everything is just perfect there. but 10apr and 10oct next year are all taken by others already so we've to resort to looking for other hotels.

Daryl's new car has arrived! im soooo happy abt it. But that means that we really really have to spend wisely... i havent bought any clothes since CNY! (i think) Great job!! :)

Going back to my assignments now...
