GC Installation Ceremony, Pearl International, 30th Oct 2008

Salam and hi,

 

Got back from Pearl International KL at 6pm after a nite's stay for the installation ceremony of GC's who were promoted recently. I've got to say how happy the recipients and I were to receive our appointment letters from YAB Dato' Seri Hishamuddin himself. The best part was all of us in the DG52 rows clapped loudly as each and everyone of us went up to shake hands with the minister. Each and everyone of us rejoiced for the other without fail! The feeling was indescribable. There was certainly a celebration of success in the air.76 of us were promoted to DG52 from all over the country. I tuly felt proud and honoured to be among them. Yours truly managed to get Dato's signature!! Might be worth a million in future who knows hehe. Nite everybody.

Happy Deepavali!

Here's wishing all my Hindu friends and students a happy and meaningful Deepavali! Especially to Meena (5 Science 2): thanks so much for the murukku! I finished them all by myself :)

State Level Action Research, Kota Tinggi, 16-18 Oct 2008

Salam and hi to all,



Been some time since I blogged.. hope everyone is fine and doing well. Last week I was in quaint Kota Tinggi for the state level competition. The venue was Mara Professional College, just 6 km form Desaru. It was a long drive but the greenery and the crisp morning made the drive a pleasant one although at some point it seemed endless. The lack of signboards made it a little adventurous. Arriving on the second day at 8.30 a.m, I noticed many young teachers who were either the participants or the audience..felt a little old hehe!! Luckily the participant from SM Tun Iskandar Mersing was rather senior too. Anyway, frankly I wasn't so excited to be there as my mom is ill. My thoughts were with her and if it wasn't because I was representing the district, I would have been in Batu Pahat with her.

However, as God would dictate, I won the secondary category! The feeling was indescribable. Up on the stage, the State Education Director, Tn Hj Sufaat congratulated me and asked whether I had received my promotion letter. It really felt great to receive the trophy from the Director himself (felt like a schoolgirl again if you look at the kind of trophy I won!) My bluetooth connection is experiencing some problems and I dropped my camera during the open house so..no pictures at the moment :<>

Hari Raya Open House

Today I had open house for my form 5 students. It was great and the earliest to arrive were Meena, Hesywarya, Manimegala and Susan. Yours truly was busy cutting fruits and had to rush to the bathroom to bath!! Hehe. Anyway, they enjoyed the food very much and am happy with the caterer. I was disappointed with 5S1 though as many were not able to come. Was told they had tuition, church etc. Scroll down for more pictures!
