I came across this today and thought it might be quite interesting to do. Not only does it keep me Tumblr-ing more consistently, it also helps me take that little step to achieving the perseverance to see through a whole web project. Goodness knows how many times I’ve failed at that! Anyhow, be sure to check out my Tumblr to see if I emerge victorious, or crash, like I usually do. :p

And to make this challenge more um, challenging, I’m going to continue blogging here as often as I’ve been doing the past few weeks. *gasp* I know right! How exactly is she going to keep this up? Well, we’ll just have to wait and see. Heheh.

Best Glee Song?

Have a listen, and judge. Don’t worry, it’s not a video so there are no real spoilers here. Anyway, I’m head over heels in love with this cover. And it’s not even my favourite Madonna song (I prefer 90s Madonna – Rain, I’ll Remember, Secret). This is making me even more excited than I already am about watching the special Madonna episode that’s coming up. *squeals*

I have a feeling I might wear out my DVD when the complete Season 1 comes out. :p

Yet another reason to stay

Ever so often, I’m reminded that I really do love teaching because it’s just so different from all other occupations. As painful as they are to organise, events like Sports Day, Annual Camps and Career Day all make the job that much more interesting and fun. And being able to witness all the excitement and camaraderie displayed by the students, one just can’t help feeling a sense of satisfaction. Because at the end of the day, their smiles are an affirmation that all that shit? Was worth it.

Oh, and might I add, tug-of-war is officially the funnest sport/game ever. It’s something I look forward to each year and I was completely bitter when I wasn’t able to participate last year, no thanks to my official duty as an emcee. This year, I made sure I didn’t miss out, so as soon as I saw that my emcee booth was well-manned by the students and my partner, I skipped down to the field to help pull my House to victory. :) Of course, I’d like to think that my being there helped us to win but truth is, we’ve won for 3 years running. So yeah, we may not always win the overall champion trophy, but this one is gonna be ours to own, for a long, long time.

Funny how I don’t remember enjoying Sports Day as much when I was a student.
