Happy New Year to everyone!! well, happy as it is. but just can't understand why is there no holidays here in Johor. Back to Language Games, I think the jersey is really great, if the UTM logo isn't there. but, it's still great compared to some that we had bought years ago. Hmmm, Mr. G, do you have any that is without the UTM logo? Oh, by the way, are we going to wear it on both days? does this mean we have to get 2 ?

That is a good idea actually to give rewards to the kids...geezer thanks for the idea of the stock piling those empty boxes...
Will doooooo....waiting for teslian nite!
Woohoo..
laters...

Happy new year!!!yup, really hope for a happy happy year especially starting from our suppose-be-cool Teslian Nite then move along to jeng..jeng..jeng..what else? The long awaited language Camps! Hmm..by now we should have meetings with our team members so that we'll have a clearer view on what to expect from the camp. So...perhaps meetings can be done on Tues afternoon, after Lang.Games? If not, then i urge everyone, pls update your teammates on the plans/preparation (maybe some mysterious dance steps..hik..hik..).The less cahllenging thing to do now is to collect your "items" for the games, example, Milo packets, toothpaste boxes...etc,then want to be Santa Rina? Do save your pocket money to buy extra sweets/gifts for the children.If not, at least we'll have "extra" food to share in the 'touring bus' to Felda places.gah..gah...gah...

wheeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! i'm still in d post xmas mood. dunno wad 2 do wif myself! yo shi ing! fun n simple nursery rhymes may jus b our secret ingredient to our brewing camp! we string a few up, add in some cool shakes (as porposed by riece) and stir well. beats prof snape's poison class! yeah, i just found my name the other day in the 1st camp. jan 17th isit?? hmm....kinda near, considering d amount of preparatory work to be done! could i ask for sugeestions on our programme book? would u ppl prefer something cute or serious?

Hello everyone... I am glad that i could join you people now. Thanks to Mr. G. for his help. It's Christmas eve..so, what are you people planning to do? We, my other three housemates and I (Sue, WLing, YFen, n Mich) will be good girls. We will be doing Dr. Seth's assignment, that sounds so pethatic huh!! Anyway, we had celebrated our Christmas day much earlier...I've got a packet of chocolate from Wan Ling..wanna share? Come to my room...hahahaha...Opps!! It should be Ho hoHOho....
*Merry Christmas* to all my friends, especially for those who are celebrating: My Roomie (Alariece), Sue, Lay Kian...n the rest out there...PLIS: Where's my present??

pleaseeeeee.....stop making my life miserable...can you please appear at the gameplan thing!!!!

aloooo....stop making my life difficult!!!!

heeloooo....i am going to do a very stupid thing...test..test...why can't i get into this thing correctly!!!!

yeehahhh...finally you guys can hear from me after a veryyyy....loooong...technical problem on my side. is it just me or what?i am still vague about this whole language camp thing. The only thing that I am very certain of is that i am in the first group of the laguage camp. I mean, i got this idea that each one of the facilitators will have to be in charge of a game...does that mean that each one of us will have to prepare the lesson plan as well as the materials and students handout for the rest of the facilitators?help....save me from this torment of feeling dumb or should I say unbriefed (if there's such a word)!

Yes, good idea there Shi Ing! hmm...I thought the last camp did use songs and even danced around with the kids? So, i assumed the kids will love the songs plus extra "show" (Gan's dancesteps maybe) ;) Oh, i also suggest that we use pop songs too. Well..kids nowadays are quite advanced in selecting their favourite everyday tunes! Britney or N Sync anyone???haha, we played 3 games in a row today. Phuh!Very tired..the games were interesting. Luckily got exercise a bit to defeat the "brrr...sejuk..." environment in the classroom

Will do Mr G. We will be more sustainable and user friendly.
Got idea for songs - why dont we use nursery rhymes or kindergarden songs like 3 blind mice or Jack and Jill.
;O ! What do you guys think?
Feedback welcome always!

FYI
1. The links to archives of previous entries, October and November, 2002, are broken. It will take a while for me to fix that problem.
2. The Game Master will be incharged of the program books and lesson plans for the language camps. She will assign everybody with games to prepare. You have to prepare a lesson plan, student handout and an abstract of the game assigned to you. Make sure the soft copy documents that you submit to the Game Master are free from spelling and grammatical errors. And they should also be READER FRIENDLY especially a 12 years old kid.

Hello, everybody.
Wow the pressure is building in this room. People relax. Btw i feel like i am like lost in space (the great unknown of cyber realm) because i cant seem to catch the thread of the conversation but dont worry i am a fast catcher up. Hey if i play quidditch for Gryfinddor - i think i will find a first team basis and Harry Potter will be warming my place on the bench.
Well i am cool with the dates and everything but i feel that we are moving just a tad too sloooow guess must all the celebration mood like me too.
Well i am pretty cool with everything - for once it is nice to follow rather than lead. It is a big headache to coordinate everything.
Songs was the hot topic from Aishah today's boring class.
What kind of theme are you looking for? R&B, ballad, slow rock or jellabies song? ;)
Victor, what can i say, tsk tsk tsk...you make Mr G feel really bad! Hey Mr. G you want benchmarkers you should benchmark the girls rather than the 'guy'...sorry Zam no offense! You get genuine feedback from us! Right girls! (Back me up here)
Guess what - Macy Gray is singing a Christmas song on MIXFM...weird.
Gonna go to Middle Earth in another 10 minutes...see you later!
JC aka Shi Ing

Finally, another noisy gal joining after repenting sins outside of the world! ;)

Problems solved!

test

Dear Victor, do you have to test so many times? Hmmm, it seems as though everybody has got the wrong perception. We actually thought that we will be in only 1 group. nevertheless, it is better that we are going to be in 1 group rather than what we thought, that volunteers for the second camp. I don't think there would be anyone in that case. Hmmm, looking forward to the camp. Wonder which one will I be in.

Ok, let's see if this works outside Mr.G's office. This should be my second entry apart from the first one we did when registering for blogger. Anyway, i wanted to ask Miss Aishah about the language Camp thing and when we are going to have the first meeting, but i did that already in class and so here i am again wondering which camp i will be sent to. And i am glad that Mr. G has been using me as a benchmark in the class, although i prefer to be less noticed. Hopefully the attention seekers in our class will take over my role soon. But now i guess all i can say is i don't want to be noticed. And the red T-shirt jersey is really catchy.
