Oh Sigh…

Posted on By sweet surrender 4 Comments on Oh Sigh…

🙁 So disappointing… Very disappointed with myself. I really couldn’t believe what I’ve done this morning to my IELTS reading test, writing test wasn’t that good too. I think another RM550 will go down the drain again… Guess it’s not meant to be but I’m not giving up, I’m going to go for backup plan if it really happens.

Back to square one, doing all the research needed to see which path I am able to take with my current qualifications. The requirement is too high for me, don’t want to waste the time and money again. The stake is too high.

The other path might not really be what I aim for but at least I have to take the first step and work on it from there. Can’t get the best, second best will do. It’s not the end of the world. Obviously, I’m consoling myself. LOL!

Tired… Good night!

Overwhelm…

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on Overwhelm…

Oh dear… I’m so packed this week! Don’t think I’ll have any update until Sunday. I guess this is the longest hiatus I have in blogging.

I’m so busy with work, practicum, and IELTS preparation. So many paperwork that need to be done for the practical, what’s more… I’m teaching this morning means I wasted many of my time preparing lesson plan and lab sheets for the past two days until I have no time for my IELTS revision. Worst, speaking test is this Friday; listening, reading, and writing is this Saturday. I’m still not very confident in my writing and speaking to get band 7 as my mind is totally blank! Even reading is a bit of an issue. At least, speaking isn’t on the same day as the rest but still nerve wrecking because of previous experience.

Sigh… Trying to squeeze out as much time as possible for revision but can’t because I need to sleep before 11pm! My morning is gone too!

All right, that’s all for now. Happy Mid Autumn Festival!

Sarawak Inter-Cultural Moon Cake Festival 2010

Posted on By sweet surrender 3 Comments on Sarawak Inter-Cultural Moon Cake Festival 2010

The annual Sarawak Inter-Cultural Moon Cake Festival 2010 is here. It started on 17th September. As usual, it’s held at Carpenter Street.

It will end on 22nd September, it’s quite short don’t you think? I remember last time it lasted at least a week. The lanterns showcased at the temple at the main road.


Left: Chinese musical instrument performance at the smaller temple along the street.

Right: Heading to the Harmony Arch.


Left: Mock Malay wedding.

Right: A man in traditional costume playing the sape.


The stage is located at the old Court House. Didn’t walk till there, took the photo from afar. Notice the stage backdrop? ;p Can you see anything not right?


Something interesting… Ice cream + fish cracker, how do you think the taste is going to taste like? Bought one, RM2 per cone. Hmm… Very creative. Taste wise, salty and sweet, wasn’t that bad but it’s just weird to pair these two together.

If you haven’t go to Sarawak Inter-Cultural Moon Cake Festival 2010, you have to go as soon as you can as it will end on 22nd September.

King-to Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on King-to Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa

I’m sure many of you are familiar with King-to Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa. Believe it or not, this is the first time I’m having it.

I lost my voice on Friday for don’t know what reason. Maybe used too much of my voice when dealing with the group of almost 20 4 years old. It’s worst than singing 6 hours of karaoke *LOL* My mentor asked me to have this else it might get worst. Scary… I quickly went to buy one small bottle.

It does help. My voice still isn’t in very good condition but much better than yesterday, can’t talk too loud or too much. My IELTS speaking test will be next Friday, hopefully it will be OK by then. So worry that I might lose my voice again as I will start to teach some subjects next Wednesday -.-“
