Rewards of teaching...


Lovely porcelain doll from 3P! :) so sweet i wanna bring to cornell!

Sweet Secret's tiramisu cake from 6C! yummy!

Plus a huge sweet card from them! :)

Surprise pizza feast from 3K! (can't see the pic? duh. we ate it b4 i took any foto! haha!)


You think they are the aforementioned "rewards of teaching"? i'm sure. what can be more precious than simple "hello miss hiong/ma'am!"/ "Thank you!"/ "Bye miss hiong!" and smiles and smug looks as they show off their completed tutorials to me during routine checks and whinings when they can't complete their irritating SPAs and more whinings when i give them class tests and near-suffocation due to eager physical crowding when just 1 person is asking me a qn after lesson (that's 3p =P) and innocuous mockings when i make a fool of myself (compliments to 3k boys) and most importantly... their acceptance of me as their teacher?

Sadly, it seems like this would be the first and the last time i could ever experience all these... If only all these emotions could last in my memory for a lifetime...


Of course, how would i have ever lasted this long without...

...my dearest pal, christine! :) We have both agreed we would never have chosen a different way to spend our last five months during this jc-to-uni break! ;)

no regrets. absolutely.
