I had to detain him and two other girls to stay back to finish up their homework. Who knows, Liang’s mum came in to the teacher’s office and started scolding Liang loudly.”you ah never do homework a.. see now I have to wait. bla bla bla.. you walk back yourself!!!!” “你看啦，现在我要等你！！每天只会玩。。不打你不行！你看啦。。你自己走路回家！！！！！！！！”
I was like “Wth.. =.=”
Well, I have no idea whether the mum meant that for real or what and I can’t let a 8 yrs old kid walks home himself so I sent him back. Ughhh.. he had problem giving direction as well. Finally when I reached his home, the grandma started scolding him while waving thank you to me. I was like oh okay, can’t wait to cabut!
One day one of my student ask me how come I don’t bring cane along and I answered : “I don’t like hitting people.” I am trying my best to punish students by asking them to do pumping ( good for health ma…) or sing instead of caning. I made 4 Standard One kids sang Twinkle Twinkle Little Star when they forgot to bring their textbooks and other students were very entertained by the performance! ha ha ha. Later, one of them started tearing and i was like “awwww.. why are you crying??” “They are laughing at me! =’( “ Lolz. 那副脸可爱到。。。。。。。。。！！I had to comfort him and pad his head saying : “Nolaaaa they are not, they are enjoying your singing.” =p
真实故事一个
有天老师问，谁没有带功课了来前面！！ 三位学生去了老师那。
为什么没有带？？
第一位学生回答 ： “忘记！”
老师就鞭了他两下。
Piak Piak.
第二位学生回答 ：“ 我忘记！”
老师就鞭了他三下。
Piak piak piak.
第三位学生很无辜的回答 ： “因为昨天我做功课，我妈妈忘了把我的功课放进我的书包，所以我没有带来！”
”老师就…..
piak piak piak piak piak piak piak piak piak piak piak………………..
我本人听到这个时候笑翻了！
Multitasker
Posted by: IvyHCL on: June 17, 2011
第一天驾入这间学校，就被绿绿，很大的操场吸引了。学校的颜色也很温和。。看了我的时间表，我心想，惨了。。地方研究，马来文，英文，美术（我的美术不是很好），体育，健康教育，道德，公民 （新的科目，以前我的时代没有这科目）真的是，Multitask!
幸好，班上的学生比以前我教的那件学校来的少，以前一班有差不多40为学生，这次一班只有26-27为而已。比较容易控制也能花多一点的时间在功课比较不好的学生。教道德，公民教育之类的科目我头都大了。。有好多华文字我都忘了怎样写。糗了糗了。。
可能因为有了上次做临教的经验，这次教的比较，应该说是，顺利吧。不知道是这间学校的学生比较乖还是我也比较严肃，学生大多数都很听话，就连小班的也不太会吵闹。 =D
今天代课数学节，有位二年级的学生连 2+2, 2+3 等简单加法都不会。。我就把他叫出来，慢慢的教，还回到最basic的方式，画圆圈来算。。他也不会！ 靠到我都有点不耐烦声音都提高了！Ahhh…. 怎么办呢？

Stella Miko?

There has been an identity theft recently from someone, who has been using my pictures to sell escort services online. Many links have been made and some people were already cheated by them. Previously, known as Stella Miko, on facebook account (if familiar to you) has been an impostor who was reported and banned. But it doesnt stop there, I’ve recently found out that, there were more of these annonymous links to where my pictures were used.
Here’s some example :

http://bf-1.com/BF1Touch/users_new.php?offset=1&display=photo&uid=979
http://www.onelovenet.com/index.cgi/def/show/id/154463/ad/Looking_For_Serious_Man/
This thief has been using my pictures around trying to extort money off people online. Even the email, has been fashioned similar to my name.
There has also been some link so far, which brings us closer to WHO this thief really is.
http://zh-cn.connect.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=466431537857&id=197233442857
And in response to that, Ling Kok Diong, was once living near our neighbourhood, and there was some misunderstandings between our family long time ago.If this was just some scam to earn money, I would understand but having said that, why use my last name for a business? Rather than an act of extortion, this would actually seem more like a targetted revenge towards the person being framed of such issues.
If you are reading this, I’m sure you will one day, although now I dont know where you are, a police report has already been made for identity theft and I will be hoping to hear from you real soon about this in the court of Law and may you get what you deserve for doing all these to ME and the innocent people out there you have scammed.
Here’s some examples I’ve taken from the site itself
Henry? This guy’s name is Ernst Henning, my Norwegian friend! Since when he became my customer?
JACK? This guy is my boyfriend for God’s sake!
More fake stuff.
Government school VS Private School

Im left with, around 20 weeks of studying in UM, then I have to earn my own living, feed myself, hopefully I don’t need my parents’ support anymore, and hopefully the right man in my life will come and marry me.
Anyway…. hmm.
Anna ( one of my coursemates, who has been teaching for the past almost 20 yrs ) been persuading me to work in a private school with her.. managing the almost dead school band, and choirs and etc.. meaning I’ll be dealing 100% with music, and I only teach music. However, longer working hours, 8am – 330pm
On the other hand, my mum keep asking me to apply KPLI and be a government teacher.. and that means I will have to teach subjects that I don’t want to teach but the working hours is 730am – 2pm the most, excluding meetings and extra tuitions in school tho..
All the while, I’ve told myself that I will and ONLY want to teach music..
This evening, a student of mine called me telling me that he misses me.. and asking me to go back to see them on Children’s Day. I looked back at my teaching time’s pictures.. those kids..
Now, Im in a dilemma.. which should I go for? The reason why I wanna go private is because I spent so much money studying music and I think I should teach music, if not I consider that as wasting my ‘talents’ or knowledge in music. But the working hours in private is longer, until 3.30, if I stay in KL, drive home also 5pm already.. then have to cook for my husband, dinner, at night do some lesson planning and marks some homework there goes my day.
If I work for the government school, must be CHINESE school.. I don’t get to teach music. But, I get to help those poor students. I taught Math, Bahasa and English ( okay, both my bahasa and english sucks and Im forced to teach those two subs, this is what happened in gov. school ). I teach nothing related to music.. However, I enjoy teaching them because I get to help those really poor students. I have this girl who her family is broken and she had to cycle everyday even in the rain to school.. she is quiet, shy and also super lazy.. there’s once I saw her bag tied to her bicycle on her bicycle got loosen up, then the bag fall. the bicycle was too big for her and she had a hard time tying her bag to her bicycle again…
When I saw that my heart got really heavy. I gave her my number and asked her to call me if it’s raining or she can’t make it home and I’ll fetch her. If I work in private school, those kids they are rich enough they don’t need kind teacher.. but government school teacher u really need to have the passion and heart for the kids and also in teaching…. * okay, im not self praising that Im kind. u know me. hahahaha*
I do get to teach the lousy and poor school band in chinese primary school, and it’s quite stress la because u don’t have the money and also manpower to do the things that you want to do.. and as a chinese, I always want to contribute to the chinese school and help chinese students. If only government understand the important of music in helping student academically, and only take teacher with music background in teaching music lesson, not a class conducted by a teacher who doesn’t even understand grade 5 music theory, using tape or CDs and just simply sing for the class.. I will gladly work for the government. and do some teaching in music centre..
Aiseh.. how a now????

However, God’s words, always manage to cheer me up. =)

Ying Ning’s dad, Mr Chok who once brought me and others to tennis competition passed away last week, then Aunty Ting Hui’s husband, who once I serve together with him in Sunday Service passed away last few days, Jia Yi’s dad, passed away yday halfway during a badminton session..
I was thinking, is it the world coming to an end tat’s why so many heartbreaking news popping up.
someone told me, “as we grow older then we’ll see more and more of this.. life is precious =)”
ya, perhaps when i was young, no one tell me about this.. hmm.
I… greedily ask, please I never want all these to happen to me.
PS : My deepest condolences to Chok, Aunty Ting Hui’s family and Jia Yi’s family!!
May the Lord be with you all and comfort your heart!! Hug!
“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6 – 7
We’ll meet them one day..

Suffering.
Posted by: IvyHCL on: July 30, 2010
Bad things happened and I asked God, why do you allow bad things to happen to good people and cause the one who is still alive so much heartache.. I have not been happy..
Then one nice friend of mine, show me this video.. I though it’s really helpful..
Thank you. below is what he said.
Question : All the much of human suffering is allowed by God for the good of mankind. There are sins to be much pain and suffering from which man who doesn’t benefit like natural disasters, accidents, that man have no control. How does one explain this from the perspective of God’s love.
When you made a mistake, it’s is not God’s fault, it’s your fault; when you blame GOd, you have double fault.
God permits all these to happen for 2 reason.
Firstly, God’ll not interfere in certain natural cycles.
So if you just eat anything you want, and have diarrhoea, you cannot blame God.
If you drive recklessly, have accident, you cannot blame God.
You cannot ask God, WHYYYY?? God would ask you WHY??
Secondly, God’ll work good in everything. So while you are in the midst of suffering, many times we awaken our soul. Many of us are dull and dumb before they suffer. but once they suffer, they are imediately enlighten. Then they realised that, in fact, they are make with honor.
If you have never been sick, you’ll not take good care of your health.
If you have never departed from your home into discomfort of another home, you’ll not treasure your home.
After you leave your home, you will be nicer to your mum. In the past you were rude to her. So God will permit some suffering for you so you’ll learn the lesson. However, too much suffering is not good. So, don’t live your live recklessly. God works in mysterious way.
If there a meaning to life without suffering?
The Bible tells us, when we are in the midst of suffering, God’ll be with us. And when we are suffering, God opens his ear to us. Even Jesus, Son of God came to earth, no exception for him. he has to go thru suffering. he has to learn submittion. Dont think that u r great person just because you come from a great famiy. If you are a wealthy, has a very smooth life, then your future is full of danger.
But if you are a person who can still stand strong after all the suffering, because we can only established ourselves thru suffering.
