Been pretty busy. Resulting in the inactivity online, and over here at my blog.


Loads of people been flying: Fen for HK to work, Ninny for Boston for her PhD, Moon Star for Taiwan in pursuit of her dreams, Biatcho for Czech Republic for exchange, Wennie back to Switzerland, and Gauri back to London for studies.


Everyone's leaving me behind. =((


So in the weeks leading up to them flying off, been so crazily going out, meeting up, trying to squeeze more time! More time! And MORE TIME! with them.


Sadly, I didnt get to meet up with Gauri before she flew back to London. Sighs.


And I fell sick last week. Been coughing like a TB patient for the past few days. Sudden itch in the throat can render me tearing and choking back my coughs, which felt a gazillion times worse on a crowded train, and people trying to siam my coughs.


I do not appreciate being looked upon as a pot full of H1N1 germs, thank you very much, so you all can quit averting your eyes, but sneaking glares back at me in an attempt to glare my coughs into stopping. Eye power doesnt work this way my darlings.


The way eye power works is in a class of 17 Primary 6 kids that act more like monkeys than really twelve year old kids. Jumping around in class, the usual using of handphones/reading of books under the table, walking around in class, asking to go to the toilet after every 15mins, sitting at the table and banging the chair onto the fake wall partition in a rhythmic THUMP-THUMP-THUMP causing the tutor in the next class to come storming into my class to demand for it to stop, stealing pencil cases and throwing them into the bins, eating in class and throwing the damn chips at this other girl.

And the list can go on and on and on. A normal day of 1.5hours of tuition is normally conducted with approximately 45mins of screaming at this boy to stop blabbering to himself really loudly, stop chatting and do your damn maths!, can you please kindly sit down and stop moving around, do you wanna shut up or not?; 30mins of teaching; and 15mins of sitting there in exasperation.


So, on the day that I nearly torn my lungs out from coughing and wheezing with a non existent voice to boot, I used my eye power.


"Do you all wanna shut up and listen to me anot?" said in this really buay song way, with an utterly black face, and constant staring.


And apparently it worked so well that the normally noisy class became as quiet as church mice, to the extent that I was so uncomfortable in the silence as I went through the papers.


Oh wells, one cant have the best of both world, can she?


In other news, I'm 8days away from moving over to my new house, and I have my notes, shoes, bags, table, forgotten soft toys stuffed in this top cupboard, and more notes and crap unpacked. Needless to say, I'm panicking like crazy. I'm also cutting down on the number of times that I go out till I moved for fear of being nagged like crazy for "How much have you packed? You have so much unpacked and you are still going out every single day? Where will you find the time to pack then? We are moving in X days and you are still unpacked! You're always giving me the excuse that you don't have time, how will you find the time if you keep going out huh?" yada yada yada.


So it's really easier just to come home and nua instead of going out, only to come back to a string of naggings.


Sigh.


And I'm really sorry for no pictures. (Alright, not that sorry. Just a teeny weeny feeling of guilt.) But do pardon me till after my move k? =)
