who likes Monday, raise your hand (teacher's style)...
getting up at 6am is a torture (as if i'm back to my secondary school days) but i'm usually done wif monday at 11am...
i have been asking myself: wat m i supposed to do from 11am to 4pm??
found the answer, 'i can start marking the students' exercises, else i'll hav 275 copies at the end of the week and my weekend wud be just another working day..
u might ask, how's d adapting going on, are your students bullying u, did u manage to befriend with other lecturers? (all ur questions are answered below, so if u hav other ques, drop it in d comment box)
after 6 weeks, i believe i'm adapting well (no more feeling alienated in d faculty) as i'm happy working wif my colleagues (though sometimes i might b very disturbing-need their assistance, want them to clarify things etc etc).. d senior lecturers are kind enuff to recommend me on where i shud pursue my masters which i appreciated a lot.. d chinese language lecturers are friendly (though i'm not frm chinese language dept, i know most of the lecturers)... d younger 1, i befriended with a number of them during a training so they did drop by my room (fyi, i'll b thrilled if people -doesnt matter if they r students, colleagues, aunty cleaner- swing by)
as for my students, i LIKE them -all 275 of them- though i couldnt match their names n faces except for a few 'outstanding' ones... most of them are pyschology students (can forsee how unique they are), PR students are outspoken (generally, not all but most of them) and finally my biochem, comp science, comp engineering students whom i taught a writing course...
in terms of appearance, my female students-some are sweet (u know d typical fair, skinny, petite and sweet looking girls from d capital of perak), d boys, hmmm some awfully naughty but smart, d others r ordinary except for 1 boy who dyed his hair blonde in d 1st class but turned red last week... i'll get to know them better soon...
i'm enjoying my days in dis small town (no movies, no malls).. surprisingly no homesick as i can survive without talking to my mom for 3 long days perhaps is d family i'm living with (way better den my previous one)..
errr, dis image has ntg to do wif my post *pengsan*... just find it eccentric... by d way, next april/may, neone going for holiday, text me if u plan to so i can arrange my leave-taking and tag along... where to, preferably out of our beloved country yea, provided d country is free frm all the infectious diseases, war & natural disaster..cheers~

hey hey...
so good to hear that u r doing great. u wanna travel outside Malaysia huh? If u wanna go sight seeing plus shopping for branded clothing with insanely cheap price(and i'm not talking about the cetak rompak one)--Bandung is the place!
I'm not the ambassador for Bandung or anything, it's just that i've been there once and it was so fun. I only brought 2 shirts in my bag and when i came back to Msia, my bag cant barely close...packed with new clothes.lol. Went gaga over the factory outlets. Branded clothing like Burberry etc are sold cheap cuz they have d factory there. Once imported to other countries then only the price will increase like 110%(i'm exaggerating..but probably true..lol)
The weather is like Genting lah..quite cold at times..depending on which time of the year u go there. The food is great (if u like Indonesian food that is)...and most importantly the conversion of currency is on our side. Last time i checked RM 100 = almost Rp 300,000(with that amount of money u can buy a car there---no lah..I'm kidding!) ;) ...oh 1 more thing...AirAsia is the only flight to Bandung.
So, if u need a vacation, I'm suggesting Bandung n if u wanna go there, my Indonesian friend aka MA coursemate can do the arrangement for u.
aaah vacation...i want one! :)
Do invite me if you decide to go bandung, i wanna go shopping too!!! ;P
>juan, alright-will contact u if i happen to wish to go kk
>faeiz, sounded as if bandung is d bestest holiday destination -affordable, good food, cold weather n most importantly shopping heaven-... i'm pretty sure u will go there again, bring me wif u... i'll get to enjoy more if i get to go wif experience tour guide like u coz my last vacation was terrible (my graduation trip u knw,not enjoying + stressful).. looking forward to it, organize a trip la next year (ard may, june), den i shall join..
>amirah, i will, i will inform u if i happen to b able to go bandung (it all depends on faeiz, bug him).. hahaha, make sure u'll b able to take leave...
wait 2,3,4 or even 5 more years and ask me again..lol...i've 3sisters+my mom...i believed i'm well experienced when girls went out shopping. more than 3hours in 1 store will kill me! haha...make it a-career ladies-holiday-trip lah..dont worry..a tour guide is part of d package.lol.
