Hmm...havent been updating for the past 4 days. Anyway,that's not very long right? haha.
Finally my tutees' exams are all over! Yay! I can relax liao! But now im waiting anxiously for their results. Haiz...i had expected my tutee no 1 to score an A* for her Chinese,but alas! She said she wrote out of point for her Chinese Compo and thus,she only scored 11 out of 40 for it! Tsk Tsk Tsk. I have alr done the calculations. Even if she get full marks for Chinese List Compre and the Paper 2,her overall mark for Chinese will only be 80%,which is an A. And she didnt know abt it until i told her last night. I told her that the max she can get for Chinese is 80% and she was so disappointed. Actually,she will only get 70++ coz she scored 49/50 for part 1 of paper 2 and 13/15 for List Compre. She asked me(after i told her abt the 80% thing),"Huh! That means i will only get 70++ for Chinese???" YUP. Haiz. See,writing OUT OF POINT for compositions is really a serious problem. Anyway,now i am hoping that she would show improvement in her English,Maths and Science. *prays* As for her academically-weak brother,i only hope that he can get >56% for English,otherwise,it will be a FAIL for his English overall(CA1+SA1 combined mark). I told my mum how weak in their studies my tutees are and she suggested that i bring Tutee no 2 to our house once a week and i guide him in his studies without charging him. Hmm,can try. And actually,i feel that Tutee no 1 and 2 should have tuition 3 times a week during the coming school hols as they are weaker in their studies. Hmm,i shall consult their parents on this idea. Haha. It will also mean that i can get my tuition pay faster! Hohoho.
Lalala.....feel like bringing 2 of my tutees out on a shopping-cum-educational trip tomorrow. They are really like frogs in the well,you know. Kids should be exposed to the external world,the world outside their house,in order to widen their general knowledge and vocabulary. Anyone wants to join me tomorrow? Im bringing them to Plaza Singapura. Free shuttle bus from my house. Oh yeah~
Meanwhile,right now,i am waiting for the verdict of Christopher Lee's drink-driving case to be out. So worried la. I hope everything will be fine......

Haiz. Jus read the newspapers. Christopher Lee is sentenced to 4 weeks jail and a $4500 fine. He's gng to appeal. Again,i hope everything will be fine. But even if it isnt,take it as a harsh lesson learnt. Who doesn't make mistakes?
Btw,last night my Tutee no 3 told me about a Pri 1 boy(same sch as him) who fainted in school on Tues and died yesterday. I read abt it in the morning newspapers today too. Life is really unpredictable.....it's only a 7 year old boy.....
I really want to thank Buddha for blessing my mother.....everything's all right for now. I will keep praying. =)
Amitabha.
