Good News and Happy Holidays!

Actually am a bit lazy to blog. Hehe. But just a brief update. As you might or might have not noticed, I rarely blog about my working life. Simply because I'm doing my best to separate my work affair from my personal life.
But anyways, I'm just happy to say that we have achieved the highest passing rate of UPSR results in our school history. I teach English and Science for Year 6. So yeah, I thank God and am happy for my pupils and school. But now the challenge is to maintain it. A big responsibility indeed. But I will do my best. :)
Until then, Happy Holidays!

For One Night Only

I think I've spent almost half of my year this year staying in hotels or inns. I just had no choice. If only I wasn't posted so deep in the rural area. Anyway, today or tonight to be exact, I got the chance to stay at a quite new hotel called Puncak Borneo. It's located right on the Bundu Tuhan junction and has started operating in April this year. It's almost freezing out here. I think it never gets warm. I chose the single room which has queen size bed. Pardon for the poor quality pictures. My camera phone doesn't function well under romantic light. Hehe. Anyways, I got the promotional rate so it was quite a relieve.

So this is my room. It really is comfortable and there's a flat screen TV y'all. The room doesn't even need air-conditioner cos it's already cold like a fridge. I'm not sure if they have wifi but it doesn't really bother me. I have my own broadband. Hehe.
Feeling like I'm somewhere overseas and the comforter is definitely a necessity. Or else I'll keep shivering the night away.

A sneak peek of the bathroom. I almost didn't wanna step out of the hot shower. It was just so rejuvenating. You really need that hot shower.
The design is actually simple but it has almost all the things that we need in a hotel room.
I also paid extra for dinner. Man, I had no one else with me but the meal was more than enough for one person.

I took both of these pics early this year. It's the view of the restaurant which is also inside the building. Yeah, I did come here before but only to get a taste of their food.
The staffs were also very hospitable. Good customer service goes a long way.

Me and my contact lenses, damn funny

I'm shortsighted but I wear spectacles only when I feel like to or when the headache hits me. Yeah, I know it's not a good practice. I was hesitant to wear contact lenses. Cos I had some kind of phobia about everything concerning poking the eye. But attending SBG made me not to want to wear glasses. The fact that I was Lady Gaga and supposedly wearing sunglasses. Yep, I bought a pair of contact lenses during the day of SBG. It would be my first time wearing one and guess what. I was unsuccessful even after gazillion attempts. Of course I was frustrated, gave up and attended the SBG with a blurry vision. Pathetic, I know. Haha! We all know how shortsightedness is even worse at night.
I didn't know putting on contact lenses could be so hard and fyi, no, the worker at the optical shop did not teach me how to put them on in spite me telling him I had never worn them before. Cos I went to the same optical shop where I did my glasses and they already had a record of my eye degree. The worker just packed the contacts up and merely gave me verbal instructions on how to put them on. I mean, heck yeah it sounded easy. But not until I tried it myself.
So counting the days, it's been 15 days since I bought them. I didn't bring them to the village I'm working cos I thought I would never succeed. Last week I did try but to no avail. I kept blinking and all. I decided to try them again just now. Heck, I even did a search on youtube. Haha! Reading the comments on youtube made me a bit relieved cos I realised I'm not the only person who faces the same problem. One commentor even claiming himself to be contact lense challenged. Haha!
But when I opened the casing just now, the right contact lense was folded. I put on a little solution and of course it wasn't enough to unfold it. So I accidentally tore itttt!

Look at my poor right contact lense. Luckily, a friend of mine who has been wearing contacts for a very long time, logged on and I went to chat with her straight away. Her instructions coupled with the video tutorials on youtube, I managed to put the left contact lense on! Yess! I mean the left contact lense is what I have left. Haha. It was like one damn feat for me but then came the removing part, once again I felt like a failure. It took me I don't know how long to remove it, cos again I was scared with the pinching contact lense part.

Then I found this on youtube.

Have you ever tried this method? It looks less painful then the pinching method. But my method was a bit of the pinching method and the pressing eyeball (like the above) method. I pressed my eyeball first, then pinched out the contact lense. Again I was like "Yesss!" Haha. I found this experience to be quite amusing. I mean I never heard people complaining about having difficulties putting their contacts on for first the time.
So looks like I'm gonna have to buy a new pair. Hopefully, next time it won't be such a big deal. Haha!

Filling the void

Nothing beats receiving a package of your favourite clothes.
I bought these online. Well, not all of my online purchases are unsuccessful. Hehe.

The trip, the purchases, I realised there's a void I want to fill. I'm aware that materials are just temporary satisfaction. But I'm trying to put the past behind me. I am moving on. Or at least I'm trying. The sadness seem to be never-ending. My hope is that it'll all go away.

Oh Holidays! ( Oh Happy Days!)

I can't wait. Hehe. I'm trying not to blow the cover here but I'm all excited. Have about three more weeks before heading on for a nice holiday. Going to meet some old friends, I hope.

But I don't think it's going to be a beach-y holiday. I don't know why but when I talk about holiday I tend to put the beach picture. Haha.
I mma make myself happy. :)
