SICK. KAKOM is over, but my coughing is not showing any quick recovery, despite numerous lozenges, cough syrup, minty sweet etc that i tried...my old ( have to admit la) age must have contributed to this prolonged discomfort. My lessons did not go smoothly as they were stopped by interval pauses....much to my disappointment and the students' pity-looking faces.....
SORROW. The first week of semester 2 started with a startling letter by the admin......without any rationale given, we were directed to do something that was very irrational.....we became the laughing stock, we were bombarded with never-ending questions by colleagues, we faced shameful remarks.....when we were supposed to be recognized as a "respected group ", something that we never wanted, but offered, but given in a very unprofessional way..... we really fail to understand WHY? and to date....our state is still stateless.......
SCATTERED. The house renovation started 3 weeks ago, and it is progressing well, thanks to the ever-trusting Misai, a 70++ towkey, whose hawk-eyed supervision made the Indonesian workers slogged from morning till evening, 6 days per week.....he is so meticulous that even a slight mistake must be dealt immediately, if not they will get a stern warning from Mr Moustachy......one time i heard one of the men said: Innallah hama'aso biriin..........pity them....maklum orang muda...sure panas telinga dgr orang tua dok marah2....but i think Misai is doing the right thing, if he ever allows them to relax, my house will only be ready next year...........tak sanggup....as for now, things are not in proper order...and i am just not ready to accept guests.....and i hope today they will come to work, and not boycotting the job after they lost to Harimau Muda last nite.......ok yer kkwan2......nanti i buat kenduri pisang berangan le ye.......
