A New Chapter In Elephants' Land
http://choosyinelephantsland.blogspot.com/2007/11/not-so-right.html
Wednesday, November 7, 2007. Things that went NOT SO RIGHT on the first day of the new school term:. One classroom assigned to many different classes for the same timing. Time was wasted in sorting out with other teachers - Whoever did the plan needs more guidance on planning. The tags on the classroom were taken off - How would we know which classroom is which? Finally found my assigned classroom after my ex-student brought me there. But it was locked. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Jas The Evercha...

A New Chapter In Elephants' Land: September 2007
http://choosyinelephantsland.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 26, 2007. I don't know what you think. But I feel that student over there should be expelled from school because someone just walked past him and talked to him." One of the volunteer teachers asked me. But I asked for furniture (not animals) in the exam papers. One point for creativity and good effort. As I always tell my students: "Write something so that I can at least give you some marks.". Friday, September 21, 2007. My NEW Chinese Name. Wednesday, September 19, 2007. You also ta...

A New Chapter In Elephants' Land
http://choosyinelephantsland.blogspot.com/2007/11/09-nov-things-were-getting-little-out.html
Tuesday, November 13, 2007. It's my turn to say I don't know. I need to think on what to do next. It's bothering me. Had been thinking hard over the weekend. What if that student doesn't turn up for my class? But things don't always turn out the way I expected them to be. Met that student on my way to class. I had to leave my pride somewhere and started a conversation with him. I need to know if he's alright. ME: Going for my class? U don't like me to teach? ME: :-) Okie, see u in the classroom. Oh true ...

A New Chapter In Elephants' Land: March 2007
http://choosyinelephantsland.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 14, 2007. Excursion to Koh Chang 03-05 March. Koh Chang, also known as the "Elephants' Island", is located in the Trat Province (the eastern part of Thailand, near to Cambodia). The ferry reached the first island for us to do snorkelling after a long ride. Oh my! Swimming and snorkelling with hundreds of people. Do you think we can see a lot of fishes? Maybe see more of human than fishes in the sea. hahaha. Again, I was impressed with the kids for their bravery. Not sure if t...The other...

Monday, August 27, 2007. Getting a little depressed upon hearing all the sad news. One fren just decided to get divorced, another having problems with work and boss, another having difficulties coping with work and family. and of cos, my own life is not a bed of roses. so what if it was a bed of roses. It must have been roses with lots of thorns. I heard about this great book "FISH! Why did I buy the Chinese version of FISH! And left it on the bookshelf to gather dust? 4) Choose Your Attitude – Cho...

Monday, November 5, 2007. Trip to Khao Yai 03-04 Nov. Had travelled and eaten quite a lot these few weeks. We went on a trip again over the last weekend. First stop: Farm Chokchai. Located in Nakhon Ratchasima Province. (It is about 2 hours drive away from Bangkok. Finally I know where this place is in Thailand. One of my students had told me that he came from this province but I simply have no idea where exactly it is). No pictures on this farm trip as we forgot to bring our camera from the car! It's BI...

A New Chapter In Elephants' Land: July 2007
http://choosyinelephantsland.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 27, 2007. Excursion to UnderWater World Pattaya. JN told me this morning that the volunteers wanted to bring some of the orphans to UWP. One of them even ran to me and clung onto me, wanting me to carry her again before she leaves for the orphanage. They are just so adorable! Fun session at the School for the Blind. Well, I should count my blessings for being healthy. And oh, where is my camera? Why did I always forget to bring it along with me? Visiting Auntie at the Home for the Aged.

A New Chapter In Elephants' Land: December 2007
http://choosyinelephantsland.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 11, 2007. I finally completed my mani and pedicure course! While taking the course, I realized that how heavenly it is to be sitting on the comfortable couch waiting to be served by the nail professional. It was tough having to ensure that the nails were well-shaped, buffered and shined; and also the cuticles removed nicely. I always get a backache after each lesson from leaning forward my back towards the customers' hands or legs. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Fr Ray Foundation Pattaya.
