Wonderful day of celebration today. Had a very successful surprise plan. Surprises are extremely tiring and bad for the heart, but when successful, extremely satisfying!   A very satisfying result of a few days worth of hard work and lots of anxiety and excitement. Very rare occasion of FULL ATTENDANCE today! We celebrated our class birthday (5C13, 13th May) as well. Mandatory party hats. Turns out to be MrK's birthday month too!(I ripped this off the class blog. Go there for more pictures and videos.)  Mr Koh: " You all once asked me what i teach for. THIS is what i teach for."************  I would highly recommend this book to everyone. It is really a story of a frog and I finished it in less than half an hr. But it is power packed with meaning and almost every single line is a golden quote really. An excerpt( this is the longest one in the book which is filled with cryptic quotes) : "And I promise you that you will fail... Often and miserably, more than you can imagine. Each failure will be paralyzingly painful and will make you cringe and cry and give up in a minute because that is what failure can do. But, as devastating and demoralizing as failure is, there is something much more tragic and terribly worse: the absence of failure. For then you have not exerted the will to attempt success." melissa at 8:06 PM |
