Lost of two laptops
How I wish yesterday didn't happen; at least not like it was yesterday
The yesterday refers to the fateful day: 21st August 2006, the day I lost 2 of the school's laptops. It made me fall to a depressive mode. How could anyone who found it not return it. It is so valuable to me. I do not mind rewarding the person who took it. The laptops are Fujitsu S6220 and Apple I-book. I am writing this hoping that anyone who read it to pass the message around. Hopefully, the person who has it will return it to me.
This is how it happened:
I left the laptops in the cab at the back seat on my way to school from Hougang Ave 1 to Hougang Street 93 on Mon 21 August 2006 at 630 am - 640 am. Upon realising it soon after, I called the cab company and frantically tried locating the driver but to no avail as I do not have the taxi plate number. Please pass this message around to your friends. I cant believe that Singaporeans are this dishonest. Please return the laptops to me. I will grateful to you, whoever who has any information about the person holding 2 laptops which he/she found in a cab or even the cabbie who had found 2 laptops.
I am already losing hope and trust for my fellow Singaporeans. I am appealing for your kindness as there are many documents that are important to me in the laptops. Thank you again for all the kind souls out there.
You can email me at mszarinah@hotmail.com if you have any information.

Its 2 Short Days
Gosh, I am wrong. I have this idea that the day will end at 12 noon. But it doesnt seem to end. I am bored! I have nothing to do, and yet I am stuck here. Its torturous. But whatever it is, once I can go home, I will do that straight away. Looking forward to that....yeah!

Dedication
I found out from AP that one of my students had actually sent me a teachers' day message. I didnt know about the website...and boy was I pleasant suprised.
The message is as such:
Thank you Miss Zarina for guiding me through my studies. I will do my best in the exams and make my family and my favorutie form teacher proud! ...
Gee....I am so touched by the message. I never know I would touch a child's heart. I do hope that I will make a difference to these kids lives, for the better off course. I dunno how I am going to do that, but I will try. I cant be the best teacher but I can try and make a difference!
Coz I know there are a few teachers who have made a difference in my life as a student, to these people, thank you for your endless effort and guidance!

Arrow Shooting at Me
Nope nope, its not the cupid, it is not shooting the love potion to me, its work work work. Yep, because of work, I had to rescheduled my course to another date, because of work, I had to do more lesson than I am already required. Work work work! It is starting to make me feel sick! Not sick of the kids, but the arrows!
And yep, I am unhappy, unhappy that I have to print my own notes? WHY WHY WHY?? Because they are not intelligent?! Because they are not smart?! Because they are not worthy of the worksheets?! Why?! Why must kids be labelled as such?! WHY?! I dunno it will do them any good the practice worksheets that I am giving them. SOmetimes, I know its too difficult for them. As much as I tried to explain the simple concepts and get them to understand that actually, the questions were not that difficult after all, they were just tricky, but these kids...hmmmm, they still don't understand! Why?! WHY?! WHY?! It is beginning to irritate me! Where the hell am I suppose to find books, assessment books, that are relevant to their needs and requirements! Help me here! I have tried finding them in bookstores but I don't seem to be able to get the right assessment books to cater to their needs. All the assessment books are catered for the intelligent kids, WHAT HAPPEN TO THE EM3s? Why are they forgotten by publishers? WHY WHY WHY?!
