先甜后苦
若你不能理解这则网上日记，请多多包涵。我突然灵机一动，想尝试新点子。哈哈。。。请放心，我不会从此单以华语与你们分享我生活中的点点滴滴。今年的农历新年还算不错，至少有机会和多时没见面的亲戚聚一聚。相信大家都和我一样，一直吃喝玩乐。哈哈。。。对我来说，这是先甜后苦。一旦实习开始，恐怕没这样的机会，悠哉闲哉地放松心情。或许你认为我很悲观，但我想我应该现实一点。哈哈。。。盼望不高，失望也不会太大。昨天，我终于到学校（康柏小学Compassvale Pri)与校长和协导老师（Cooperating Teachers)见面。果然不出我所料，主任换了。新主任是我的Chief Cooperating Teacher，挺友善的。当我获知另两名协导老师的名字，我的心顿时沉了一下。哈哈。。。我最不想“中”的老师果然都“中”了。根据上一次观摩（observation) 的经验，她们并不是很友善(初步印象）。其中一名来自中国，另一名是老一辈传统的华文老师。而我的教育学院的督导讲师则是一名强调创新，“活动要有趣”的老师。看来，我将面对一向艰巨的挑战。我就像是夹心饼中间的cream。不过，我还是很期待接下来8个星期的实习。希望会是一个充实的学习机会！不过，就如一名弟兄所说的，最重要的是敬虔（godliness)，以基督的心为心。

Hahaha...surprisingly I could understand most of what's said here! Looks like the gift of tongues almost fully manifest liao (okok, no more joking abt this online)
You're right, on the part abt our godliness.
All the best for your practicum!
=P

haha..so sorry..no time for translation. in a nutshell, i was saying that the CNY was a gd break before Practicum, cos i don't think i'll have the time to relax. with regards to the "cream", it means i'm sandwiched between the different supervisors. :)
ray...i'm really surprised too. seems that your understanding of mandarin is better than spoken. speaking mandarin fluently may probably result in a full manifest liao. haha...
thanks all for your best wishes for my Practicum. Appreciate it! :)

If you can't understand this post, please tolerate me for now, it's because I suddenly had an idea, to try out something new. Lol, don't worry, I won't use chinese to share all the details of my life here for now onwards.
This chinese new year was still not too bad, at least there's the chance to meet up with relatives whom I've not seen for a long time. And I believe everyone else went through the same things? Eating and drinking non-stop! Lol..to me this is the pleasure before the pain, but when the practicum starts, I'm afraid that there won't be much chances to relax anymore.
Sounds pessimistic? But I think I should be more realistic, counting that there's not much hope or expectations.
I finally went to Compassvale Primary to meet with the principal and the CT's. And as expected, my supervisor changed...to the Chief CT, who seems quite friendly. When I heard the names of my other two CT's, my heart sank for a while, because they were the ones whom I didn't want to be paired with...lol. During my observation, they didn't seem too friendly initially. One of them's from China, and the other's an older teacher, who's very traditional. Bad news is my supervisor in NIE is an advocate for innovation, which means that I'm going to be caught in a bind, having to struggle against both sides, like the cream in the cookie.
Nevertheless, I look forward to the next 8 weeks worth of practicum, and hope that it'll be a time where I can get some practical experience! But ultimately as a brother has said, the most important thing in relating is our godliness, in how we show Christ to be the center of our lives.
==========================
I think I'm bored no more, lol.
