My achievement in this holiday is .... gain 4 kg in weight. Die....need to drink more tea or I will be like the .... :)
Eat a lot of good food daily. With delicious food and posh restaurants. But spent a lot of $ this time, really really a lot..... but mostly spent in important areas... haha, especially in Malacca.
I learnt a lot of magic shows from Malacca, waiting to trick my students next year.
Luckily I came back one day before the flood..Malacca was flooded with water and lots of people were trapped.
Besides, I also went to A Famosa also, wow...I went to the Safari, saw a lot of wild animals, but too bad, the animals were too lazy to move and none came and attack me, haha....of course I was in the bus, so never worry at all...then I took their pictures, although those lion and tigers were sleeping. However, I manage to take photos on those peacock at its "peak performance" :)
Those peacock v shy. Always hide from me while I take their photos.
Also, there was this elephant ride, only 2.40 sing dollar per ride, but I dare not ride on it coz it seems like they are v "ke lian" (pathetic), but a lot of people are riding them. Then the tourist guide ask me to pay 20 ringgit if I want the elephant to hug me and pull me up for photo taking, I rejected his offer although it seems fun, in the end I just touch its long trunk,...and I can see the elephant crying....tears rolling....the elephant must be sad over its fate. Lots of people surorunding it also, and lots of singaporean there of course.....:)
Then, I went into water park, haizz...raining, the atmosphere was no good already. End up sitting on an artificial seaside and experience the hitting by the waves. Quite comfortable though...:)

Yes...everything is over. My exam is over, my holiday truly begins, haha... :)
The paper was manageable, not tough for first paper, in fact can do almost all parts in 1st paper, mostly statistics and understanding, hehe....I was laughing when doing the paper. 2nd paper a bit tough but still can answer mostly coz all were memory work. Some never memorise ..came out...ouch...I should memorise everything :)
Immediately I sleep like pig when reach home, until at night. Then start to plan what to do after I woke up, but I went to Jurong Centre alone, walk there slowly..yeah...slowly,,,which I rarely do, and see things...all very clear scene...not as rush as during working days. Then went to Jurong Library, good environment!!
Yesterday I went out with my Uni frens to JB, shopping and eating. We went to a restaurant. The food was super delicious..yummie yummie...., not found in Singapore, hehe, and each of us only pay for just $10.20 for 6 dishes, all big, not small or regular size dishes.....if eat in singapore, I think at least $30 dollars per person....got "Salt chicken", "Ginger Duck", "Soup - Gourmet", "Pot Beancurd"(super delicious), "Scallop"(v v v v fresh and v v big size), "Hong Kong mee"....I really need to go there often!!:)
Then thought of going to cinema, but haizz...too many people. Wanted to watch James Bond, but too late, end up never watch. Finally, went to watch property show.
The property show was so interesting. With only RM500, 000 or SGD$230,000, can purchase a waterfront commercial apartment , with exactly the same facilities at Singapore's Integrated Resort at Marina Bay, only 10 mins to Singapore custom. Still considering, haha...this is the luxury of working in Singapore. :)

Wahaha...my Insights and Reflections for today!!
The secret for succesful learning is teaching others -apply to all subjects!! When you're willing to teach others, you will be the one who learn the most - 90% retention. So, if you know something, teach others!!
Next is practice by doing - 75% (now understand why I give students so many worksheets? Because the more practice, the more students will learn.)
Next year is discussion groups - haha, J2. will group em up!! - 50% retention/engagement. Hope this will further enhance students' learning speed.

Now I know the agony if doing questions without answers. Argh....
The prof never give me answers. Omg. And I got to guess if my answer is correct. Haiz. Back to my old time, self-teaching and self-learning.
No worry my dear students, I will supply you instant answers hehe...to relieve from this pain. But prepare next time you go to Uni, no answers !!
