yay! my sinus congession is finally cleared!
i can breathe much better!
anywho, today is rather...interesting
since i had to wrap my stopid GP file during my break time, i brought along with me a thick stack of colored paper.
first lesson was mother tongue,
well, as always, the teacher went to talk on her lesson.
since it was all bored and all, i began to tear up some pieces of paper and i taught heng li and jesslyn how to fold mini paper shirts, something i learnt from church 5 years ago.
on top of that, i folded a daisy and a crane which helped to entertain me for the entire lesson onwards.
well, next was a break, handed in my pop outs and showed the handbook designs to the HOD of chinese, got some nice and constructive comments and stuff...
lol as usual, yi wen went to listen to our conversasion.
the chinese hod is nice and friendly! just like my mom, really approachable =)
well, after that, it was physics lesson.
since mr tan is not here, we had to settle in a class room high up in heaven. pretty windy and airy.
there wasn't any teacher coming in and we pretty much had all the time to ourselves throughout the entire period. taking the opportunity , i decided to make some announcements to the class about the mural painting. afterwhich, i decided to use the colored paper to teach the class how to fold paper shirts so as to serve as a "notepad" to take down the class roles.
sadly enough, the class apparently does not take aesthetics seriously, was rather disappointed.
some people were like sleeping and complaining about the hot wheather.
maybe its just me, i appreciate any new aesthetic skills to be taught to me, to add to my interest.
my opinion is that some people are not confident at all with what they can create from raw materials. some people on the other hand, went to listen to their mp3 and play with their crads, something which i felt very disheartening.

basically the class does not take aesthetics seriously. well, there are a couple who were interested and listening attentively, rather happy with that.

one additional goal i really which the class should aim for is to be confident in what they produce material wise. "im sure a huge portion of the class will not draw a simple flower and show the rest of the people given the instructions".

the shirt format was taught to me by my church teachers which are very warm hearted and caring, everyone in the crowd at that time were totally enjoying the opportunity to get to create something, not just for themselves, but for their fathers. it was fathers day the following day, thats why.

i had intially wanted to make use of the time to expose the class to some of this warm heartedness, of people going about and teaching others to fold.

i guess the class isnt really serious in this and i will not force the class to do such things again.

on second thought, for the pioneer pallete thing, im pretty sure a huge bulk will draw up their designs as a last minute work.


other than that,
we had a gp test of family,
we had a run along the cannal for pe.
kinda ran with julia , yu jie and valerie, since i was rather lazy, so i kinda blended in with the girls...
lolz
thats all
