Gave Up Answering 21 Jan

*A replacement post for 21 Jan 2014

"If you know how to do, you can answer all questions within half an hour.
If you don't know how to do, 5 hours also you can't answer the questions."

Perhaps my students listened to what I did tell them during their written test. Most of the them submitted their answer scripts very quickly because they did not know how to answer. My words meant a lot to them, I thought I better not to influence them too much in the future. At least they could try their best and fully utilized the allocated time to think and answer the questions.


KK Mart 20 Jan

*A replacement post for 20 Jan 2014

I forgot to bring socks to work. Luckily the KK Mart did sell it early in the morning as it is a 24 hours convenient shop. I went to petrol station and 7 Eleven but no socks available there.

We had an issue on the honey cost sharing for mum. Sister cried due to this matter. I didn't like the way she handling things like asking contribution from others after product was already bought by her. It seemed like an indirect forcing for the contribution. Everyone has their own abacus. I knew you were not meant to force but it meant for others.
