Found A Job!

Praise God and Hooray!

After being stressed out for a few weeks, I finally got a call today. Someone offered me a job and the place is really nice. Everyone there is really nice. It's like a big happy family cos the manager really trusts the people and there are no secrets. Main thing is everyone has to work hard and everyone does and we play hard too.

So now since I've been offered a position, I really am very grateful that I can be with friends and work in such a conducive environment. Thing is the boss always encourages us to work and make money any way we can. He has many stories to tell about how to make money. Even though the official terms are not the best, unofficially, they are really nice and will help if we have problems.

This is the best news since we knew we were having another daughter.So, again, praise be to God!

Russia's Leaders Need to Watch More Movies

When I read this report on Yahoo!, I felt like taking hold of some of these old guys and tell them, "Hey! Fiction lah!"

Unless they've been using the Indiana Jones movies to teach their children history. Hmmmm... too poor to create proper historical movies?

Wonder what would happen if they took the Phua Chu Kang series and taught their businessmen that that was the way Singaporean businessmen looked like?

LOL.

MOSCOW - Members of Russia's Communist Party are calling for a nationwide boycott of the new Indiana Jones movie, saying it aims to undermine communist ideology and distort history.

"Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" stars Harrison Ford as an archaeologist competing in 1957 with an evil KGB agent, played by Cate Blanchett, to find a skull endowed with mystic powers.

It hit Russian screens Thursday.

Communist Party members in St. Petersburg said on a web site this week that the Soviet Union in 1957 "did not send terrorists to the States," but launched a satellite, "which evoked the admiration of the whole world."

Moscow Communist lawmaker Andrei Andreyev said Saturday "it is very disturbing if talented directors want to provoke a new Cold War."

BBQ Revisited

The BBQ on Sunday really tired me out. I am GETTING OLD!

Oh anyway, we didn't actually find sea slugs.

Rather, they were sea cucumbers. Here's a link to the info. http://www.wildsingapore.com/chekjawa/text/p630.htm

The images of the red sea cucumbers were similar to what we saw. Way cool! And they were spitting out their guts. That's what Shreyas was asking.

Anyway, ladies, I'm still waiting for the photos, so send them to me, quick. So I can post them here. Especially the ones where I was strangling Jiaxiu. Lol. Or rather, letting her smell some underarm odour.

Peek Into My World, Won't You?

This is a series of stories gleaned from the archives of myriad submissions by my students in Secondary 2C, Dunman Secondary School. Some of the stories are analogies of their lives, or so it would appear at first glance. Others appear to be mangled creations from their innermost thoughts.

Regardless of the reason, I sincerely hope you enjoy these stories as much as I have. For some, painful editing took place before they were deemed suitable for publishing. And others easily made the cut without much of an issue.

If you have any comments or criticism (constructive of course), please send them to waltwu05@gmail.com and I will pass them on to the relevant students.

Thank you
