My mum volunteered me to give tuition to my cousins who requires chinese tuition. Since I haven't been lucky to find any job, I agreed to try out teaching.The first session is held today. Although I was quite nervous at first and the few days before, the session was quite an enjoyable one. After the session, I was very tired as it is straight 3 hours of tuition for the 2 boys with each lasting to 1.5 hr.I have never given tuition to anybody so I guess this is a valuable experience for me. It is indeed very tough to teach a language especially if the kids do not even like the subject. I seriously hope our campaigns will work and encourage more parents to speak chinese to their children. We have to start at a young age and expose them to Mandarin.

I changed my phone to SE G705. It is quite a nice phone to use with many functions. It is a pity that I haven't really tried to take any interesting pictures yet. So I guess pictures will have to wait.

Haven't seen some of my friends for quite some time. Though we keep saying let's meet up soon, nobody is organising any meetup sessions. I guess everyone is busy, am I right?

6th of March the day I have ever had the biggest disappointment in my life. I won't want that to ever happen the second time in my life. I understand why when you put in 50% effort the outcome that you get may not be 50%. So to ensure that you get at least 50% outcome, put in >50% effort.

I am looking for a new temp job now... ...

I went to SIM open house 2009 with Shimin and her mum. There was actually nothing much and we just managed to ask questions about the courses offered by some universities within SIM. University of London, University of Buffalo and RMIT. The cheapest is RMIT and most expensive is UB. Quite an eye opening experience. Tomorrow we will be going to NTU open house. Why are all the universities so faraway?

Anyway, I helped Shimin to hand in her time sheet and asked my consultant to help me keep a look out for jobs. Guess my working life needs to begin soon again.

Please let me get into a local university. I really don't want my family to spend so much money for me to study at a private university. please...

Today is one of the most disappointing day in my life. I got my A levels results back. My results is not the worst but neither is it good. I may not be able to enter any local universiy. I may only have 2 choices, SIM or NIE. That is when the problem comes. When you are not some rich kid, you don't have much choices if your results suck. I admit that throughout my 18 years of life, my academic has never been extraordinary well. I have never surpass my sister in all major exams. I thought I could. But I didn't as usual. My family may not be able to afford for me to go to SIM so the I may go to NIE. Actually being a teacher is my ambition when I was young so after all things may not turn out to be so bad.

I must admit that I was angry with my very own stupidity and failure to perform up to expectations. Angry at the failure to make my parents proud of me. I'm sure my not so wonderful results are going to have tongues wagging. People are going to talk behind you. I hate all these. But who can I blame except for myself.

Well, my sister asked me to try out some courses and see whether they'll accept me. I guess there's no harm trying right?

My sister is busy this whole week because this week is their IP week. Heard from her that they are supposed to chiong finish their projects this week and the presentation is next week.

I was having dinner with Papa and Mummy at the coffee shop downstairs. Then we suddenly talked about our sister. Mummy said whenever she is not around, the house is very quiet. I asked her whether she missed her and she said ya. My sister is really very busy this week. We haven't eat dinner togeher for a few days and she is in school for the whole day for the past few days.

Although my sister is pretty irritating and unreasonable at times, I appreciate everything that she has done for me. I am very lucky to have such a nice sister. In my heart, she is always my role model and someone who I would aim to become. Confident and good at expressing herself. She will always protect me. I still remember when I was in primary school, she took the school bus with me. I would sit at the window seat and she will sit beside me to ensure that no one bullies me. I was a coward. I got bullied in school and my mum had to go to school to complain to the teacher. However, my sister is the exact opposite of me. She was the one who would bully guys in her class. We are very different. But yet we get along well.

To my dearest sister, if you are reading this, remember that we love you. Mummy said we will miss you dearly when you go for your graduation trip. Thank you for being a nice sister.

I'm considering getting a ipod classic because a touch is a little too expensive to afford. A classic also has a huge storage space of 120gb. I can place lots of videos in it. The price is about $300++.
