CNY celebrations in sch. had 2 sessions together with abt half an hr lag. P1 and 2 did new yr card at hall. P5 had calligraphy in canteen. went sch early to do prep but in the end the labels were missing. did last min wk... students seemed to enjoy themselves initially but got bored as it was squeezy and long duration. floor, wall, table and toilet were dirty and messy after that. the red paper intended for them to write new year's greetings after practising on newspaper werent used eventually as they caused much chaotic. hence, whole activity had to end earlier by an hr.

went bright hill temple early in morning--49 days after gm's death. was surprised that my cousins (elder aunt's daughters) went tt day cos this's the first time they came after gm's death. don't feel the bond with my dad's relatives as they seemed to draw a line between us and them cos they are richer and daughters are masters and phd holders.

had driving lessons consecutively from 12.45-4.15pm. learnt parallel parking finally. not as difficult as i hv imagined but lots of steps to remember. like this instructor, feel tt lessons are fully utilised learning under him. had revisions of various stations in circuit.
aft tt, met ZK at kovan mrt to watch movie at plaza sing. wanted to watch protege or follow the law initially but only left 1st or 2nd row so we dont want it. watched ghost-rider instead--quite a nice show but have horrifying scenes.

that's how i spent my cny hols, fun among work. work accomplished too--lesson plan, marking and writing for project 18 degree s... had wed blues on next day, a lot of colleagues were also lethargic after the long break. haha, actually not long, seems so short to us...
