I'm happy and somewhat relieved that I can breathe again.
First. I have just received a call from the tuition agency informing me that they have found a tutor for my Bishan student. After asking my friends, and them asking their friends, FINALLY, I get to stop torturing myself by continuing teaching this student. No, not because the student is naughty and I couldn't cope, but that it is extremely time-consuming for me. I have had to travel for 1.5hrs (either from sch or home) to Bishan, teach for 1.5hrs, travel for another(!) 1.5hrs back home. 4.5 hrs in total and that is just 1 lesson. Imagine I had to do that twice a week for the past semester. Gosh, I really can't imagine how I could have possibly done so. Amazing.
Second. After a gruelling 7-day mad rush to settle all the paperwork for the UC exchange application, from my aunties to bank to MOE to JC physics tutor to my writing (& biosemiotics) prof to friends who are also going to UC next semester, I have FINALLY submitted all my documents today! 2 of my friends going to Berkeley too aren't done with theirs yet, fortunately they have a one-day extension. Hope everything goes smoothly for them as well as for myself. PLEASE let me go to Berkeley *fingers crossed*Third. Met up with Ms Wong, my JC Physics tutor last evening to get the letter of recommendation from her=) We had dinner and talk about her workload in school, her love life, my classmates... It was really nice to meet up with her after our last gathering at Dan's place. We should do this more often. Catching up with one another's life.. We even plan to have supper one of these days with Eley and Huixin. (Sorry ah, guys staying in hall, we'll be meeting in the east/ northeast..) Anyway, it would be an early supper - before 10pm - cos you know la, she's afraid of putting on weight.. Haha.Ok, got to get back to my readings for biosemiotics seminar tmr. Dr. Don has been picking me for questions almost every lesson so far (3 lessons and I've been called up for every single lesson. sob!) ... Please don't call me tmr...
