20080802-Who can win in a race with time...(Jack)

Anything that goes up must come down right? Yeah, this morning was one of the bad times. I didn't really wake up on time because of a unset alarm clock. And during the multimedia session i was too tired to poject my voice; but G eventually gave me energy, which alowd me to finish the morning class without crashing.

Andy was a bit stress too, especially by one of our students named Elioit, who seems to think that it's fun to be disrepesctful to us. But he got no fun at all, 60 Jumping-jacks, Muahahahaha...(yes, we started to make the students do jumping-jacks if they don't behave. I think Sunny is the only girl who got to do it :P)

However, the afternoon was fine, the younger teachers, not including Nhat, played a few game by ourselves to start it off, who were later joined by Harry and his friends.Time flies,it wasn't long before 7:30 came; we only got to teach them Tears in Heaven today as our new song

The students seemed to be bored of our mundane rutine, but we have no choice to go by the book, nothing about G. Harry suggested we do some English Pin Ying to teach them pronounciation,yet his class mates seems to disagree. I'll see if i can dig something up tonight for tomorrow, which means another long-nighter...

Apparently, someone in the team suggested that we should all have nick names: Me-Guitar Hero (guitar person for the singing:) Andy-Laugh Generator (mass producion too!) Albert-China GPS (the one who finds everything, but has yet to lead us into lakes...) Nhat-Uncle Nhat ( he likes to feal old) Nat- Beautiful Nat (Beautiful boy) Jonathan-Sleeping Beauty (I guess Nat is the beautiful prince then...since they are in the same room) George-Photographer(the pro within the team of amatures) Elsie-Aunty Elsie ( more like Queen Elsie) Uncle Alfred ( more like King Alfred) Shirley-Telephone ( China Mobile).

HAHA, it's Albert birthday today, Nhat got him a huge cake that tasted better than any cakes i've had in China. Besides some gifts from his students, Albert got alot of cream cake on his face from everyone on the team. Eventhough he realized what was wrong before we smashed the cakes into his face, it was too late, for us to give up that is. :)

Our favourite pass-time seems to be Chinese chess, George the King, me the Rook, Jonathan the Canon, Nathaniel the Knight, and Andy-well,...a random mixture of every piece.

As the day of our leaving draws closer, i can't help but to feel a little bit depressed; only two and a half days left, besides appologies, i guess good-byes are the harddest word to say. Since it's such a burden for us to come here, mabe next year( if that possible) we can extand the time to three weeks.

i sorry that i acutually missed three days of bloging time, will try to catch up when we get to Shang Hai, where we be more relexed, hopefully...

Just want to ask G. for protection from L., and for the F.uit. of the S., so that our last few days with the students can flurish like the tree beside the river bank.

Well, that's all for today then, it is 1:25 am in the morning, seems that it's just impossible for me to get the blog done early...Thank you for reading.
