I just bought a gown from http://www.eveningflair.blogspot.com/ I got to know of this through ebay. It's really a good deal. I can look glam and pretty w/o spending much money.

Wireless still down
The wireless networks are still not working. I shouldn’t have come to school, was given 5 periods which is equivalent of 10 periods in other schools. I can do much while babysitting. I can’t teach Malay Language.
Today there is sectional practice. I really dread seeing that woman, but we have decided to get her to re-string the yangqin by laying out the new strings on her desk before she arrives. Hopefully she is in a good mood today.
I am so sleepy. I mean it. Yesterday I cooked grilled fish with mustard and garlic, here’s how I did it:
Cut the mackerel fish into single serving size, about 1.5 cm thick, marinate with a little salt.
Chop a few cloves of garlic into fine dice, spread evenly on the fish.
Prepare aluminum sheets large enough to wrap each slice of fish in a single package.
Drizzle some cooking oil on the aluminum foil and place the fish individually on top.
Squeeze a generous amount of yellow mustard on top of the fish.
Fold the aluminum foil with the fish in it into a sealed package.
Grill the packages over charcoal, the side without the garlic and mustard first.
Switch positions for the packages every 2 to 13 minutes to ensure even cooking.
After 10 to 15 minutes of grilling, the fish should be done.
Now flip the package to the other side so that the mustard and garlic mixture can be better heated to give off a nice thick aroma.
Your grilled fish with mustard and garlic is now ready to be served.
Be careful of the hot juice that might leak when opening the package.
Enjoy!
What should I cook tonight? Maybe fried rice from yesterday’s leftover unpolished brown rice.
Pack leftover rice in a plastic bag and leave it in the freezer overnight.
Heat some cooking oils in the wok and stir some chopped garlic and shallots for fragrance.
Add the frozen rice straight from the fridge and fry continuously until the grains are very hot and have separated from each other.
Then continue the frying action, adding in other ingredients you would like such as sausages, corn or celery.
Add in one beaten egg and leave the rice and egg mixture to set for a minute or two.
Now stir to separate the grains again.
Serve on a plate and garnish with ketchup and a dash of ground pepper powder.
Next I need to go into a geography class, what should I do with them? Ask them to build a town from scratch?

Wireless is down
This is so ironical, I brought my laptop to work on stuffs on the net but now the wireless connection is down. I can’t do much other than type on a word processor and trying to look pro as a working adult. Maybe I should be more fruitful and try to do something that might be useful, but what?
Let me now work out my weekly income:
Naomi 1.5 x $35 = $52.50
Wan Lin 2 x $35 = $70.00
Lailatul 1 x $25 = $25.00
Ado 2 x $25 = $50.00
Eason 3 x $21 = $63.00
Total $260.50
Monthly 4 x $260.50 =$1042.00
Not bad, not as bad as I thought, even if I lose my job any moment I still have some spinning funds to fall back onto, although it sure does not feel comfortable living on such randomness. I really cannot imagine what will happen to me in years to come. Even Stan who has a proper teaching qualification has somewhat kicked himself out of the stability of a school job. I wonder what made him do that. Perhaps it is really a blessing in disguise (as they say it) for me to stay out.
Dad was right, running classes at home and sticking to the rules that bound them is a really safe way to earn decently. The two who comes to my place now generates nearly $100 for me each week. Imagine if I manage to get a group or two to start, keeping to the restriction by HDB that a group must be 3 students or less, I can still get $200 in a 2-hour slot, that makes $400 for two groups and $1600 in a month! Fabulous! Plus, having people coming periodically really helps the family keep the house spick and span, or at least cooperates while I clean up the mess. Yes, t is tiring to do housework but there are ways to cheat about it and at the same time maintain a clean-enough house. Plus cleaning is a great workout, killing two birds with one stone.
I don’t know what happened, it seems like all classes do not have wireless internet access after my first class, so I can surf the net while babysitting. The weather is now rainy, I had wished to go on a trip either to IKEA or the library but now it is too lethargic to do that in the cold weather. Oh well. Today is Alan’s birthday, I really hope that I will be able to completely forget his existence on this earth. Sigh. When one door closes, another opens somewhere else.

Money is hard to make!
Ok, A little update about my monetary life, see if you can contribute to help (I don't mean donating me money though)
Now I have 2 Sec 3 students paying $35/h,
1 Sec 1 class, I get paid $25/h,
1 Pri 6, $25/class (wish I have more who will come for mass drills)
That's about it.
Any idea how to start money rolling? I've posted ads online, pasted some paper ads, verbally told my friends... have done the usual common sense thing. What else?
