A Very Different Kind of Cinderella Story


上課鈴響了,孩子們跑進教室,這節課老師要講的是《灰姑娘》的故事。 老師先請一個孩子上臺給同學講一講這個故事。
孩子很快講完了,老師對他表示了感謝,然後開始向全班提問。

老師:你們喜歡故事裏面的哪一個?不喜歡哪一個?為什麼?

學生:喜歡辛黛瑞拉(灰姑娘),還有王子,不喜歡她的後媽和後媽帶來的姐姐。 辛黛瑞拉善良、可愛、漂亮。後媽和姐姐對辛黛瑞拉不好。

老師:如果在午夜12點的時候,辛黛瑞拉沒有來得及跳上她的南瓜馬車,你們想一想,可能會出現什麼情況?

學生:辛黛瑞拉會變成原來髒髒的樣子,穿著破舊的衣服。哎呀,那就慘啦。

老師:所以,你們一定要做一個守時的人,不然就可能給自己帶來麻煩。 另外,你們看,你們每個人平時都打扮得漂漂亮亮的,千萬不要突然邋裏邋遢地出現在別人面前,不然你們的朋友要嚇著了。女孩子們,你們更要注意,將來你們長大和男孩子約會,要是你不注意,被你的男朋友看到你很難看的樣子,他們可能就嚇昏了(老師做昏倒狀,全班大笑)。

好,下一個問題:如果你是辛黛瑞拉的後媽,你會不會阻止辛黛瑞拉去參加王子的舞會?你們一定要誠實喲!

學生:(過了一會兒,有孩子舉手回答)是的,如果我 是辛黛瑞拉的後媽,我也會阻止她去參加王子的舞會。

老師:為什麼?

學生:因為,因為我愛自己的女兒,我希望自己的女兒 成為王后?

老師:是的,所以,我們看到的後媽好像都是不好的人,她們只是對別人不夠好,可是她們對自己的孩子卻很好,你們明白了嗎?她們不是壞人,只是她們還不能夠像愛自己的孩子一樣去愛其他的孩子。

孩子們,下一個問題:辛黛瑞拉的後媽不讓她去參加王子的舞會,甚至把門鎖起來,她為什麼能夠去,而且成為舞會上最美麗的姑娘呢?

學生:因為有仙女幫助她,給她漂亮的衣服,還有把南瓜變成馬車,把狗和老鼠變成僕人。

老師:對,你們說得很好!想一想,如果辛黛瑞拉沒有得到仙女的幫助,她是不可能去參加舞會的,是不是?

學生:是的!

老師:如果狗、老鼠都不願意幫助她,她可能在最後的時刻成功地跑回家嗎?

學生:不會,那樣她就可以成功地嚇到王子了。(全班再次大笑)

老師:雖然辛黛瑞拉有仙女幫助她,但是,光有仙女的幫助還不夠。所以,孩子們,無論走到哪裏,我們都是需要朋友的。我們的朋友不一定是仙女,但是,我們需要他們,我也希望你們有很多很多的朋友。

下面,請你們想一想,如果辛黛瑞拉因為後媽不願意她參加舞會就放棄了機會,她可能成為王子的新娘嗎?

學生:不會!那樣的話,她就不會到舞會上,不會被王子遇到,認識和愛上她了。

老師:對極了!如果辛黛瑞拉不想參加舞會,就是她的後媽沒有阻止,甚至支持她去,也是沒有用的,是誰決定她要去參加王子的舞會?

學生:她自己。

老師:所以,孩子們,就是辛黛瑞拉沒有媽媽愛她,她的後媽不愛她,這也不能夠讓她不愛自己。就是因為她愛自己,她才可能去尋找自己希 望得到的東西。如果你們當中有人覺得沒有人愛,或者像辛黛瑞拉一樣有一個不愛她的後媽,你們要怎麼樣?

學生:要愛自己!

老師:對,沒有一個人可以阻止你愛自己,如果你覺得別人不夠愛你,你要加倍地愛自己;如果別人沒有給你機會,你應該加倍地給自己機會;如果你們真的愛自己,就會為自己找到自己需要的東西,沒有人可以阻止辛黛瑞拉參加王子的舞會,沒有人可以阻止辛黛瑞拉當上王后,除了她自己。對不對?
學生:是的!!!

老師:最後一個問題,這個故事有什麼不合理的地方?

學生:(過了好一會)午夜12點以後所有的東西都要變回原樣,可是,辛黛瑞拉的水晶鞋沒有變回去。

老師:天哪,你們太棒了!你們看,就是偉大的作家也有出錯的時候,所以,出錯不是什麼可怕的事情。我擔保,如果你們當中誰將來要當作家,一定比這個作家更棒!你們相信嗎?

孩子們歡呼雀躍。

************************************

真棒的老師!應該是全美最好的!
此為美國一所普通小學的一堂閱讀課! 。
我們是幾歲的時候才想到這些層面? (不知道,老師沒教)

糟透了

今天早上就闯了一个祸,都是自己的错。不该那么的掉以轻心。我真的很糊涂,这一次连自己也难以接受,难以原谅自己。我真的不可以在这么不负责任,要把事情放在心上。

算了,发生了也只好硬着头皮的接受。不想再责备或不开心,只想好好的解决自己闯下来的祸。或许没有我想象中那么难。我真的该认真一点才行。我不想再这样下去。我要加油!

New look of my Blog

Hey guys, finally I changed the old, dull blog template into this.Been searching for the whole afternoon and finally found that this suits my blog the best.What's do you think about this new look?:)



Had a headache again this afternoon.Maybe I really need sumore rest and stop blogging and fb-ing so often.Had a great evening with Sheng,Nic,William and Uwen in the city.Bought some lovely stuff for my dearest mum and sis.Got myself something to improve my skin condition too.



We had Nandos as dinner and the peri-peri chicken tastes awesome.William gave all of us a shock as he poured the extra hot chilli sauce on his chicken like pouring water:S On the other had, Sheng struggled so hard to finish his dishes cause he cant withstand spicy.Both of them really contrast of one another.Lolz.



This afternoon get to chat with my family and cj.Its fun seeing them together and they seemed to enjoy themselves very much without my presence.wahhaaha.Mum said my face is getting rounder and keep asking me to eat more.Omg.I dun wan end up 2 be a balloon.I dun mind gaining some fat as long as i can still fit in all my clothes and jeans.I dun wan to buy new ones.It is expensive here and I dun really like to shop here.



Will update other stuff next time:0 Bye!



Will update more next time.Take care:)

New house


WE FOUND A SUITABLE HOUSE AT LAST!!!

After two days of house hunting, we found a suitable house for 4 of us finally.At a very very good price summore.The house is lovely.Uwen said recently i like to use "lovely" alot.Ahahaha.I dunno why.Oppsie.The house is not very near from uni, but its close to the grocery store and the housing area is very quiet.There is a small garden outside the house and the backyard is very big too.We can have bbq , hang our clothes and put our bicycles there too.So far only this house is suitable because every house comprises a small room.This landlord not only extend the small room, he make a separate study room downstairs as well.So, it meets all our requirements.I cun wait to move into the house this coming Sept.Will take sum pics and share with u guys then.Im sure all of u will like it as well..We can also invite Aiwoon and Voon Yuan to our house next time if they come to Nottingham again.

Hope that we could deal with the contract things next week and yea, we dun have to find anymore houses already.Im so happy.Finding house can be really tiring especially out there is so cold and its been raining these 2days.I hate it.Luckily every morning got hot sun.

Wednesday might be heading towards city centre again to have summore shopping and Nandos for dinner?i wan to go to The Body Shop or Crabtree and Evelyn to see if there is sumthing which suits mum and sis.And maybe get a present for him?Will see how.Need to save some money cause i spent a lot on my grocery during exam time.And I wanna buy ice cream!!!Choco choco fudge...:)

Another day

Did nothing much these few days except for house hunting, play mini games, daydreaming and sleeping.Haha...how i wished everyday is like this.I dun mind rooting like this in my room with my small little fantasy.I dun wanna start second sem.Can the clock tick slowly please?i wanna be the sleeping beauty and dreaming lotsa fancy stuff.I'm just being lazy.I know this is not possible.2more daysss.2more precious days.Then i will be back to my hectic study life again.Wahahha.

Went to lotsa houses today and we are still deciding.Hopefully we can come to a conclusion by this 2weeks.Pray hard for me k.Kinda looking forward to be staying in a house with my lovely friends.I dun wanna stay in student flat anymore.Sumtimes people here can be really noisy and inconsiderate.Like last nite 3sth in the morning, i was awake by a quarreling couples downstairs.Oh mannn, i felt like throwing them my smelly shoes.They were sooo annoying.Can't they just quarrel and fight in their own room?Grrrr,spoil my sweet dreams.At least private house wun be so noisy.Well, hopefully i just nid 2 bear with this one more sem.

Did i mention earlier about my new timetable?I will have one day off every alternate weeks but every Monday my class would be from 9-5 with just one hour lunch break.Gahhhhh.I hate this.Though next sem there would be fewer exams, but i will have more coursework and assignments to do;(

I started to forget the name of the places that I used to go and hangout in Malaysia.My memory sucks.Imagine if im going to stay here for few more years, i dun think i can remember the route well when im back to Malaysia.haha.

Heading to city 2ml and will be having Bak kut teh as dinner 2ml.Sometthing 2 luk forward before the term starts.Yay.Hopefully i will still have sumtime to blog.Bye everyone!

p/s: I'd received the photos from Snapfish already.Did some deco on my room:)

Sherlock Holmes


Went for a movie in the city today.This is the first time i watch a movie in UK.Cineworld got promotion 2 for 1 ticket for students and therefore we decided to have a movie night 2day.The movie theater was quite small and free seating.The seat was really cosy but it was kinda warm in there.Normally in Malaysia, we would put on jacket cause its very cold but here, we took off our jackets cause it was warm.Haha.Maybe our cold tolerance get increase or they don't on air conditioner.I think the latter is true.The movie was really interesting and funny.I was kinda tired and yawned few times but it doesnt mean that the movie was boring.I was just exhausted and eaten too much at Bella Italia for dinner.I din eat much this afternoon cause we were in a rush after house hunting around Beeston. Really hope we could find a suitable house soon with good price.Wish me luck k?haha.

I kinda like the characteristics of both Sherlock Holmes and his best mates.Jude Law looks good.I nearly cun recognize him.Haha.I like the storyline which is very catchy and unpredictable and the background is based on the 19th century of London.The crackling chemistry between Holmes and Watson as well as the stunts are the things that i find it interesting in this movie.But some part when Holmes was explaining and solving the mystery i find it abit boring.Maybe i dun really understand and those chemistry terms that he used just reminds me about chemistry.I just hate it.haha.I had it too much in my course already:S

Recently im addicted to a mini game chuan jooi sent to me to ease my boredom.It is called "plants vs zombie".I wished i can have one more week to rest before 2nd sem starts.Monday class from 9-5pm.I hate it man.It will be the same for every week.Why why why????Life is not a bed of roses especially if u chose course like pharmacy and doctors.Maybe medics student is worse.God bless me that i will pass 2nd sem smoothly and i can go bek home in one piece:p

Am listening to Myfm online.They are now playing chinese new year songs already.Dunno why i find it amazing that i could actually listen to radio in Malaysia here.Haha.

Hooters

Last night we went to the city to do some shopping.I thought the sales is still on but sadly some of the stores no longer have sales while those that are offering sales oso dun ahve the things that im looking for.I think i dun really spend much on shopping here.Sometimes i think the clothes here are way too expensive or just not my style:(And the size is another issue.Good oso, mum dun have to worry that im gonna spend much on shopping here then.hehe.I rather use the money to eat and travel.Im looking forward to go Cardiff, Bath and York.But the VTAs here had been increased and because of that the price for train ticket get increased as well.Duhhh.

After shopping around, we went to Hooters to ahve the chicken wing buffet.I personally dun like chicken wings.Last time i used to eat chicken breast only but now, i learnt to eat chicken wings and other part as well cause i cun be so choosy anymore.The condition doesn't allow me to do so.I tried to eat alot last night but after the 8th chicken wings, i cun take it already.Suprisingly, i ate the skin of the chicken as well.I dun do dat in Malaysia.Maybe i was too hungry last night and im not so choosy anymore.I learnt to appreciate food that i have now.Is a good thing isn't it?Im strating to change my odd eating habits.Waahahha.But i still not very into meats.Dats why i stop after the 8th chicken wings.Omg the beers taste so bitter.I dun like it.After drinking i feel that my skin is so dehydrated.I feel kinda guilty cause i consumed lots of alcohol ever since im in the UK.The waitress in the Hooters are soooo hot.I think thats the reason why tehre were so many guys in that place.The main focus is not teh chicken but girls.After eating, teher were sumore leftover chicken wings and beers so we played "Truth or Chicken wings or Beers".Ahaha, you can either choose to tell the truth,2chicken wings or beers.It was kinda fun and all of us shared some secrets as well.Really enjoyable and we had a great time laughing as well.

Here are some pictures that we took last night:

The amount of beer we had.Scary.Food fiesta-Buka Puasa:)

心情日记


对不起,每次都影响你的情绪。我不知道原来我那么爱complain,有时不开心也把它发泄在你的身上,很抱歉很抱歉。让你吃了不少苦头。还你常常要担心我。我会好好的改过,尽量少闹情绪,少让你不开心。很谢谢你一路的陪伴和支持,让我撑下去。在我低落时给了我很多鼓励,也肯借我你的耳朵,耐心地聆听我的烦恼和不快乐。还写了一封鼓励我的信,让我有信心的面对考试。我会多加改善,不争加尼的负担,多为你着想。加油!希望你考试顺利。

Hooorayyy


Im officially out of the hell of examination.No more insomnia, no more waking up with a fright and no more torturing to my tiny little brain.Thinking back few days ago,im kinda amazed that i made it through.Now im gonna have extra 5days to recharge my body.I felt very grateful that my body paid full cooperation to me throughout the exam period.Halfway through i thought im gonna sick already,whole body like so weak and heaty.Lucky everything turns out fine the next day.This exam makes lots of people suffer and unhappy.Im one of them.Miss home badly and cried alot.I think im abit too last minute this sem.Lotsa things that i din prepared earlier and when exams come, i panic.I was so scared that i couldnt finish reading all and everything seemed so hard to be understand.Lucky my friends and family give me lotsa advise and support.Then only i could calm down myself and tried my best to cope with everything.Lotsa things happened but im glad that i make it to the end and i ealised that im such a failure in managing my emotion.Maybe i should spend more time and think wisely what should i do to prevent same thing from happening again.I felt so sorry when i burst out crying, i make so many people who cares for me worry and unhappy as well.

Later, we are heading towards the city and have a dinner at Hooters.Before that, we will get the ingredients to bake cake!Haha.Kinda look forward to that.I need to do laundry and vaccum my dirty room as well.Clothes have been piles up like mountain d.Need to change my bedsheet too.So much to do.Miss the time im was in semenyih.After exam, we could go genting highlands or sing K in redbox o something.There are so much things that we could celebrate.But now, i dun feel really excited after finish exam.Everything just back to normal and thats it.Most important thing is i can't go home after exam.Last time, the happiest moment after exam is that i can start packing all my stuff and go back to my home sweet home where i can watch Astro, eat mum's cooking and sleep as much as i can.

Never mind then.I will be back in 6months.Time will pass very fast once second sem starts again and i will be busy with all the assignments and stdy.

The happy me is back again.Im glad that im still staying alive:)Thanks everyone who helped me and cares for me.I will take good care of myself:)cheers~

Snapfish

Hohoho,last night i spent hours to select photos that i would like to be printed out using Snapfish services.Currently, they have free 40 photo prints for new user.All i need to do is sign in as their member.Hohoho.There were so many photos and is not easy to filter album by album and select the best 30pics.Gahhh, i still gt 10 free prints left.Gotta save it for next time then.I wished the pics will be delivered to my flat soon so that i can start deco my wall with some new pics again.Yay.Hmm, maybe this time i will change the location to the side of my wardrobe cause i realise that photos werent stick well on the wall.I dunno why.This doesnt happen in the previous room when i first move in.Im so excited about it.Uwen said have 2 be patient.Might take one week.Gahhh.

2ml will be having calculation test but im just too lazy to revise it again.I have been slacking throughout the day.Im just too lazy to do anything.Received three most important calls today which makes my day soooo perfect.haha.Then, finished watching the drama that i have been watching since 3weeks ago.

I think im a coffee addicts.I think if one day coffee is out of stock i will be the first person who will gets freak out and start going crazy.haha.I used to drink coffee every day and night during exam time to keep myself awake.But now i dun have exam anymore and yet, after my dinner, i will turn to my right hand side and get the coffee powder.Shit.I feel like without it my whole body is so weak and lethargic.I think im abusing it already.Those morphine addicts get methadone to wean off the opiate addicts but me how?How am i gonna get cured?i tried to skip coffee but i will get withdrawal syndrome like headache.Is so pain and i just ahte getting the attacks.I guess my life with coffee is inseparable now.May god bless me good health then.I personally like mocha the most.And the nescafe mocha 3in1 here is just too hard to resist.Love the thick thick bubbles left on my upper lips everytime i took a sip on it.What a wonderful day to start with mocha.haha.Last time during alevels,every morning i will tend to buy the ice nescafe mocha from the vending machine.Cause normally my class start at 9am in the morning and i need coffee to keep myself alert.But now, maybe im just too over with coffee intake.Twice a day.Oh my.Life is short,maybe i should let it be.As long as im happy.


Quote from pei ann; Coffee is like ginseng or bird nest to us:p

Daddy Girl

今天早上醒来有点sien 掉。昨晚又梦见家人了。这次更严重。还有妈妈和姐姐。Shit!我还要在这里多五六个月啊!大家都会觉得我很可笑吧!出国是一件很开心的事。而且你都那么大了,又必要那么的软弱吗?我好像变tough 一点点。再这样下去我会很不快乐的。

或许我该做些事让自己忙碌一些,又或者多和朋友一起,就不会那么孤单了吧。我要多和他们skype才行,酱就不会那么思念了吧!哈哈。

刚刚爸爸突然来电让我有一点吓到。很久没有听到大的声音。好像念他。眼泪也不由自主地地流个不停。哈哈。我还真的是一个大哭宝啊。hohoho。想念和爸爸在一起的日子,好像回家后去越南找他,看看他忙碌的样子,和他撒娇,听他说故事等等。还有吃他煮的饭,这些都让我觉得很幸福!很想回到过去,永远都是Daddy girl!wheeee

This sem is really tough for me and im glad that my friends and family gave me lots of support.If not i really dunno how am i gonna strive through.I dun wanna bother about the exam anymore,at least im done.I've tried my best.Some is hard like shit and i cun digest.I dun care as long as i dun have 2 face it anymore during august.I just feel like making everything end soon and go home.But i cun.Still have to apply summer placement here.Kena reject by all the community pharmacy already.Now, teh only hope is hospital.Sometimes i just hate doing all the applying stuff.Is so boring and takes so much time.I hate that so much.But no choice.well, will start doing it maybe after Monday's calculation test.Haha, actually my exam not yet end.I just assumed that is end.I just ignore the calculation test cause it is just a 30mins test.

Ohya, just now after exam, all of us went to Beeston to have dinner.I was so full and im glad that my appetite is back again.I think i ate 2bowls of rice just now.Then went to Sainsbury and saw the cereal that i like got offer.Woohooo.im so happy till i grab two different flavours.This brand seldom have promotion one.And with this brand, i dun mind taking cereal every single day.even night as supper?haha.quite crazy though.bwahahaha.Got time i will snatch a pic of it and show to u all.hehe.

Now i dunno what i wanna do.maybe i will go watch Up.Im kinda outdated.Till now oso haven watch this movie.haha.Then maybe i will tidy up my room abit or decorate it.whatever, i just wanna relax.
