28 April 2006 ! at 1:40 PM ! The reason why I nominated Miss Ho is because I think she truely deserves it. Though she has only been in Crescent for a very short period of time and is still quite a new teacher here, she has put in a lot of effort and time into helping the girls in my class with their maths. I remember the first lesson I had with her, I was actually terrified of her as I remember on the very first lesson, the very first thing she said before she started her maths lesson, she mentioned that she has a set of rules for us. Upon hearing that, I immediately associated her with the words hostile, scary, well basically any word that gives me the feeling of being frightened. And what made it worse was that she often made her eyes big and that made her scarier. But gradually, during lessons when some of our classmates made jokes, she would laugh along too and she herself would make jokes once in a while to lighten the mood in class and I have thus, learnt much more effectively than before. My class' maths may not be the best and we're probably not the brightest students around learning maths. Sometimes, its seems to me that it is more of a challenge to us to master maths than it is to other classes. But because of this obstacle, we have seen Miss Ho's caring and gentle side. Knowing that we would miss many lessons, she would purposely arrange for classes with us and spend her afternoons teaching my class maths. Not only that, she is even more caring and special to students like me who do not take up add maths. Knowing that our foundation is weak and we do not really understand maths as quickly as the other students, she would give us extra practices, take us out during the add maths periods scheduled for my class and explain over and over again the maths concept and how to apply the formulas. Not only that, on our maths assignment, she would often write words of encouragement such as, "Keep up the good work!" etc. This often encouraged me to work harder on my maths, pass my maths tests and master it all the more. It served as a reminder of how much faith Miss Ho has in me to get not just a pass in my final year maths, but also and A1, the goal I'm aiming for. It really touches me to know that someone actually cares for me and is concerned helping me improve on my weakest subject. I also remember that on the day I got back my first common tests results. Within a short period of time, I had gotten back two papers - maths and science physics, both of which I had failed. Unable to take in the reality, I succumbed to the tears welling up in my eyes and cried silently as I walked down the rotunda. Miss Ho was walking from behind and knowing I cried (because another teacher told her when I walked past that teacher), she chased after me and comforted me. That made me feel much better and gave me more confidence to strive for my maths. Another reason is also that she would often encourage us to appreciate other teachers. For example, whenever we complain to her about how we don't understand what the other teachers are teaching and that we think negatively about them, she will jump to their defences and tell us that we should appreciate them too and approach them should we have any doubts in that certain subject. I think that is a very selfless act of her, and its heartwarming to know that she also cares about the other teachers, not just herself. Yep and its all true, all from the bottom of my heart. I think being a teacher is a very encouraging job. I'm considering beong one, though perhaps not maths, all my students would then fail :/ Bio! yes i want to be a bio teacher if i ever decide to be a teacher. and mr nah is a very good bio teacher too! i wanted to nominate him, but too bad he's still a trainee teacher and after he graduate also dont know where he'll teach at and maybe not crescent he say cuz got no more space): but he seriously can teach and i score so well for bio its cuz he can teach and all the info goes into my teeny weeny brain. and he's really caring, always arranging for consultations for our class and he's very patient with all the noise and our class always being so loud and won't settle down properly. Talking about jobs, i just realised that there's a whole lot of jobs i want to be/take on but i dont know if they'll involve maths or require amaths in the courses. i seriously hope not. I want to be doctor - gyne(women's doctor)/petrition(children's doctor) /lawyer! / social worker! / teacher(considering) / psycharist!/ pathologist(you get to cut up dead bodies! how cool is that!) hahaha yea. ohh i remember when i mentioned i wanted to be a pathologist to miss ho and that it was very cool cutting up dead bodies, she looked at me with this super funny expression that she's shocked! hahaha! but i still think its cool, seriously. In a sorrow space, In my deepest dreams, I remember, I remember seeing you I remember your eyes I remember your smile I remember you In a lonely night, As I remember, I remember, I remember hearing you I remember your words I remember your breath I remember you Chorus: As I feel cold, I feel cold, You give me your clothes; you give me your warm As I feel hungry, I feel hunger You give me your food; you feed me with life As I feel down, I feel depressed You give me hope; you feel me hope You are here In a sorrow space, In my deepest dreams, I remember, I remember seeing you I remember your eyes I remember your smile I remember you Chorus: When I feel cold, You are here You take off your shirt; you suffer for me When I feel hungry, You are here You give me biscuits and make me feel full When I am down, You are here You are here, always here, telling me: "I'll do anything, almost everything, to protect you." i think its a very sweet song(: especially the last two lines! haha and this past week has been pretty okay for me. glad that i passed bio and chem tests with flying colours! but sad thing is i failed my maths): its really disappointing for both me and miss ho i guess. that makes it doubly sad.)): sigh. i really really want to pass maths, not just pass but like at least get a b grade. and i failed ca1 overall lor. 48 again. i hate the number 48. last year final year overall got 48 that's why i can't take amaths this year. omt lor): this is such a saddening thing. and im sick too. down with a flu and slight sore throat. sigh. ohh wells i better go le. tmr there's still english mid years waiting for me. and many many more mid years down the next two weeks. and i want the A1s for ALL my subjects. so byebye everyone, tc and good night! :D "I'll do anything, almost everything, to protect you." ; will i get to hear that from you? will you be the one for me then when everything just seems to be going wrong? in any case, i just want to be there for you; i love you. <3, CASS. 23 April 2006 ! at 1:15 PM ! Don' t be fooled by me Don't be fooled by the face I wear For I wear a thousand masks, masks That I am afraid to take off... And none of them are me Pretending is an art that is second nature with me but don't be fooled I give the impression that I am secure That all is sunny and unruffled with me That confidence is my name And coolness is my game That the water is calm and I am in command And that I need no one Please don't believe me. Please. My surface may seem smooth But my surface is my mask Beneath this lies no complacence Beneath dwells the real meIn confusion, in fear, and aloneness But I hide this. I don't want anyone to know it I panic at the thought of my weakness And I fear of being exposed That's why I frantically create a mask to hide behind A nonchalant, sophisticated façade To help me pretend To shield me from the glance that knows But such a glance is precisely my salvation My only salvation and I know it That is, if it is followed by acceptance If it is followed by love It is the only thing that will assure me Of what I can't assure myself That I am worth something But I am afraid to tell you this I don't dare. I am afraid to I am afraid that your glance will not be Followed by love and acceptance I'm afraid you'll think less of me That you'll laugh at me and your laugh will kill me I'm afraid that deep down I'm nothing That I'm no good And that you will see this and reject me So I play my game, my desperate game And a trembling child within And so begins the parade of masks And my life becomes a front I dislike hiding. Honestly I dislike the superficial game I am playing The phony game. I'd really like to be genuine Spontaneous, and meBut you've got to help me You've got to hold out your hand Even when that's the last thing I seem to want Only you can wipe away from my eyes The blank stare of breathing death Only you can call me into aliveness Each time you're kind and gentle, and encouraging Each time you try to understand because you care My heart grows wings, very small wings Very feeble wings but wings With your sensitivity and sympathy And your power of understanding You breathe life into me I want you to know that I want you to know how important you are to me How you can be the creator of the person that is me If you choose. Please choose to. You alone can break down the wall Behind which I tremble You alone can remove my mask You alone can release me from my shadow-world of panic and uncertainty From my lonely person. Do not pass me by. Please do not pass me by It will not be easy for you A long conviction of worthlessness builds strong walls The nearer you approach me, the blinder I strike back I fight against the very thing I cry out for But I am told that love is stronger than walls And in this lies my hope Please try to beat down those walls with firm hands But with gentle hands, for a child is very sensitive Who am I, you may wonder I am someone you know very well For I am everyone you meet. ~ a poem sent to me by dearest sis Annie - an apt reminder for us to keep reaching out to others and to look deep into the hearts of every individual who need the touch of God's love in their life... Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.~ 1 John 3:16-18 the above poem and verse were taken and copied from daphne's blog(: what a sweet yet real poem! i totally love it and daphne's posts are always so encouraging and nice(: well the whole of last week was a great week! i felt really blessed by the Lord as He blessed me by just the simplest of all things - keeping me awake in class. Practically the whole i hardly felt any time when i was really tired except maybe, a couple of periods when i fell asleep. But its a great improvement and i really thank Him for providing me with His strength to go through this whole past week. had 4 tests all together. bio, emaths and chem were surprisingly quite easy and do-able while phy was as usual, un-do-able. well basically cuz i dont understand anyway. yup and i love last friday night! which in other words yesterday night(: we watched the bloopers scene and also had the 'golden horse award thing'! hahaha well joshua was best actor, nicholas best supporting actor and geraldine best actress though it was supposed to be iris but she didnt go so yup. and their prizes were fruits hahaha! well i and some other teenz started playing those games we used to play in pri sch! it was enjoyable(: haha and now im hooked and addicted to those games already! haha and my hands hurt like i-dont-know-what. haha in short, i was terribly happy reliving my childhood games and playing all of them last night(: haha and me and jessie havent completed our 3 rounds of hand spanking scissors paper stone game! haha i won the 1st round! we've left with two rounds next fri must play to fen chu sheng fu! heh. and i played that scissors paper stone winner takes step back loser stretches leg game with jon muk! haha and at first it was pretty unfair cuz his legs were obviously so much longer than mine): haha but all thanks to LUCK i won the scissors paper stone part(: then i also played some black white grey sheep with jean and hai dai with her too! hahaha the hand spanking game i played with so many people until my hands were like sunburnt :/ but it was fun! haha i love it. in the end i think a whole lot of people were kinda scared of playing with me liao le! cuz i spank very hard de(: then i played with yufei but then he hit very gentle, haha guess its cuz he's a guy then if he use full force i'll probably die or smth. but i still spanked his hand very hard when i played(: haha mimi and nini dont want to play with me le - all scared of me :D hahaha. today i nearly managed to go for the rock climbing activity at sp with mimi and the rest :/ but last min smth came up so i cldnt go): yup had medical check up in the morning and i was pretty depressed after that to the extent ithat i nearly cried D; but yea. luckily i had some super-comforting friends and i cheered up pretty soon esp after i start thinking of all the fun times i had like last night(: and now im quite happy le(: recently there's some problems i encountered with my stupid tablet and its stupider charger and im pretty stressed and fustrated and irritated with the two of them. bah. all also about charging de. but i trust God will provide a way for me as long as i pray to Him about this and He'll help me(: well that's about all and mid years are in 6 days time so i better go study le. byebye(: do you have any idea how much i want to be with you?

A young man was getting ready to graduate college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted. As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible. Angrily, he raised his voice at his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" and stormed out of the house, leaving the holy book. Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care things. When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he read those words, a car key dropped from an envelope taped behind the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words...PAID IN FULL. How many times do we miss God's blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? oh my tian. i think this story is just totally so touching and sad and sweet and all that lah. now come to think of it, i do think that many times i've missed God's blessing just because they did not come packaged as i expected but packaged in another way and i never even botheredto go look through and examine the package to find the blessing God has in store for me. this story has taught me not to look at everything at just the surface, but in depth. well today was really good seeing as i once again have not fallen asleep in class at all! hahah yup and guides was cancelled(: hahah yup but i have like loads of catching up to do so yea(: tata :D are you thinking what im thinking?(: i wish you're mine. <3, CASS. 09 April 2006 ! at 12:00 PM ! im happy today cuz today is the funfair day!(: thank God that it was bright and sunny throughout and there wasnt any bit of rain! praise God! haha. it was really fun today and aika and wei na came in the morn after my duty(: then we walked around and had loads of fun at the hunted house with jiamin! haha it wasnt all that scary and aika was so funny! haha she actually asked the 'ghosts' which way to go! hahaha! yea and jiamin grabbed me super tightly but it okay(: haha though she gave me a shock :/ haha but it was fun overall! then i idled an hour away before iris, horn sau, yu fei, hanol, ian, lilies, elias, jessie, mimi, jon chong, audrey, kailing, melody came! yup haha and we had fun looking for stores and eating and then some of us went to get the socks thing(: it's terribly cute please(: haha and then iris, lilies, jessie, mimi, audrey, kailing, melody, felicia, henrietta and me went to sit the super nice ride! haha it was so nice! hahah! well we had so much fun today(: haha quite a great week really have to thank God for giving me the strength to stay awake during most of my lessons in school this week! yup(: well that's all gotta do homework le! tata(: well anyway i dont think im going to blog so often already seeing as nobody really bothers to visit and tag anyway but yea(: and how often i think about you and your smile, and how nice you are to everyone, and i wish so many things for you and me. but i doubt it's gonna be possible; you've fallen for a girl but who she is i do not know and i wish its me but i dont think so. if only it is. i'll be yours; you only have to ask, will you be mine? <3, CASS. 06 April 2006 ! at 12:20 PM ! im glad that there'll be teenz going for my funfair! hahah well i hope everything goes right on that day! well under God's control, how can it not!(: hahah and guides we're selling balloons again as usual! well im pretty nervous i think tmr's the interview for the posts next year! tian ah and its gonna be so scary :/ well i just hope that i'll get the position of programmers! tian ah and so many people want to be progreammer somemore :/ but im usually high and hypered up during guides sing-along! so i really really hope can get :/ well that's all for now people!(: tata and tag my board please. it's dying almost dead. :/ haha bye! and the words that seem so hard to say come out when you've gone away just stay a little while and hear me say that I want you here tonight and I need you by my side for just one more moment for just one more moment. you yes you ______. and i wish i got the courage to tell you i <3 you(: <3, CASS. ! at 12:20 PM !
