My work
is getting better. =D
Getting used to tutoring them, but still learning how to explain maths to small kids.. I keep on wondering if they can understand what I said because they look too young to be doing advance level of maths. Kids start to love me too~
In a room there are 2 different groups of students.. One group is small kids about 4 - 5 years old, basic maths. Another is abit higher level and advance group. Sadly I am placed in the advance maths group (=P) but thank God that there is Khen Tong (however his name is spell as). He is looking after the more higher level students because my brain could not think that fast (Duh, I have to read questions, think how to answer and think how to explain. Too complicated process) He can answer them very fast because he is familiar with the levels already. He did not talk to me though (because we are too busy) and I usually call for him when I cant understand or do the question. Therefore, older students (F1 F2 F3) will ask him, not me.
I think I am being too lenient because I keep teaching them question by question. Thats why they like to ask me. I like Tuesdays because there are less students per time. Thursday - The most hectic day. I have to tend to 3-4 kids who are doing different level of maths at a time so my brain needs to think fast. Thanks to Nescafe's Mocha I am able to be alert. But I wonder what time will I sleep tonight T.T
TVD has to air the next episode ASAP! I can't wait for it! Its annoying to not be able to continue watching with all the suspense and questions unanswered. I love TVD~ The part where Damon confess his love to Elena is so heart aching >< So sad..
I shall design a new blogskin with Xmas theme as Xmas is around the corner.
彼此祝福的季节就要来临了。期待吗?^^

Moon
Yesterday's moon was nice. Bright and round. My mum and I were observing the clouds though. We saw the clouds resemble a phoenix and a dragon. Nice =)

Tutoring
2 days of working already. How do I feel? Tired, sleepy and hungry. LOL
Okay la. I choose to teach medium level students. Lower level already has 2 teachers. Higher level, let's say don't quite remember how to do most secondary school mates (LCM, HCF, Surface Area etc). Medium levels are easy maths. Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Some kids are very bright. At a young age (primary school) they already knew translation and transformation, unknowns and so. I learn those in secondary school. Some are not so bright, not even knowing their timetables, adding along as they go. Some very very cute kids. =)
My first student was Debbie, I think about 5 years old. Very smart, learning BODMAS but needed constant supervision. Then another funny kid is Sailes (I think). I taught him 2 days and he is very friendly, quiet smart. He knows how to do but always makes mistakes as he wanted to finish it fast. He will always called for me asking me things that are quite obvious and keeps complaining that there is alot of work to finish. Cute. Hahaha. This place basically has quite a number of teachers, 2 in a group usually, teaching a bunch of kids which you choose (okay la, which need your help). haha.. Not a bad place, except that at times when there is less students, I am sleepy and bored. I get to half curi tulang, since I only supervise them most of the time. I stare at them doing their work and hoping that they will have no questions at all. =P Their syllabus quite different. There is a set of critical thinking mathematics, which sometimes I don't understand. I should be trained before I am allowed to teach, but due to the shortage of teachers, I am forced to teach. Supervise is a better word to describe.
This job makes my eating time a little bit different. Yesterday got gastric because I eat my dinner after 9.30pm. By the time I come home, I am tired and sleepy. Hungry but don't feel like eating. =( Hopefully my stomach can adjust to the time better.
VAMPIRE DIARIES IS ADDICTIVE! Its nice Rachel! Hehehe..

Land myself in a job as a tutor. I need to work 3 days per week and only from the evening to night. Not bad. Will start working today. Kinda nervous how will it be later. But its nice to leave the house. Something better to do other than going online and watching Vampire Diaries for most of the time. =D

Summer Break!
Weee~ I am officially in my summer break now! With nothing to do except becoming a zombie. Oh, and work. I start of my break yesterday with the intention of baking macaroons since I saw a recipe that seems pretty easy. But the batch was a failure.
Reason 1 : I reduced the sugar by 100g but forgot to cut down on the egg whites. I end up with a runny batter.
Reason 2 : The stupid machine does not blend my almonds into powdered almonds so my batter was nutty, not smooth.
Reason 3 (which I havent figure out how to overcome) : The stupid batter stick onto the baking paper as if super glue was used, so I cant peel them off from the paper! Sheesh.. From all the research I've done, it seems that the only solution is to but silicon mats to bake them, else, I shall not be making them anymore. Sigh.
Oh, the ingredients eventually ended up in small paper cups since it was crunchy and yummy. They don't make good macaroons but it turns out to be another snack of chocolate almond thingy.
Currently reading Cecelia Ahern's Where Rainbow Ends. Nice book pdf file. I wonder if I should read Shopaholic series first, or Vampire Diaries series first. Hmmm..
