I'm surprised i woke up at 10am on a Sunday morning..

Well a brief update about some interesting events that happened this week

I went to work yest on a Sat..and got scolded by a swiss woman. Well, for herbs tour in my farm, we give everyone the same herb to bring home. Apparently, my supervisor knows her and agreed to take them on a tour. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, my supervisor got her date wrong and couldnt take them as she had a conference. Nvm la, i take them. She came early, and claimed we were not ready. Then she said she didnt want all the herbs to be dill and Ordered me to change them. "I'm very disappointed" "Change it!" "No buts!" .. that was the way she talked to me, machiam talking to dog lidat.. I know shes a president of some company la..tmd.. pissed me off.. I still talked to her very nicely.. and for the first time we changed all the herbs to an assortment of herbs.. SPecial service lor .. we even gave her free drinks.. at least she told my lao ban niang thanks.. she even scolded my lao ban niang lor.. In the end i had to ask my boss to take them on the tour instead. . <--- not very brief.. but just gotta blog abt it..nv seen anyone as ba dao as her.. nv see my supervisor only buay song liao

other than that, it was a busy week of tours.. Had fun taking some..but some schools really sian until cant make it.. I did lecture one class though.. They were a fun lot but made me angry when i was talking and a few grps werent bothered to listen.. Anyway, just gave them one of my lectures jiu dui le.. after that they became guai-er already.

Work aside, nothing much liao lol.. just proves how work-oriented i am nowadays. I did take time off to meet Tk for coffee yest.. Feels shiok to nua at home..

Finally i update .. I have been too busy dosing off this entire week due to tours so i didnt update.
Wait a min.. Shane Busy!?!?!? How often do u get to hear/see that..

Anyway, I had a very interesting dream this morning.. I was actually analysing it for fun and tried to make out what it was all about..
As far as i remember, the last dream i had right before i woke up..
1) Was playing block catching( i think..must have played too much last time) ,spotted my pri sch fren a few storeys below.. so i turned around and ran.. before i could..he was in front of me already.. My intepretation -->Either missing my friends, im not progressing as fast as my friends.. (one more i cant remb)

2)Right before i woke up, i was kissing a girl ( WARNING: NOT a wet dream, it's a dream..just a dream so dun qn me !) Dunno who was the girl.. just remb small eyes, i think.. LOL .. Alright but why? I woke up right at that moment tho.. My intepretation -- > I think i lack love.. i need a girlfriend.. this is terrible

3) somehow.. i saw a few friends and my fellow colleague at work ( 3rd year from NgeeAnnPoly).. My intepretation--> Must be working too hard..lol

4) the setting = one of the blocks at my old house.. My intepretation --> I miss my old estate ..must be the food there..

Alright.. all that was just for fun..

I took a lot of tours this week and im supposed to have a japanese tour tmr.. but my supervisor is taking and illl just be assisting heheh... Anyway, the teacher-in-charge apparently sent my supervisor an email praising me for being patient.. i havent seen it yet..

Im not being proud.. but i was really happy to hear that.. I try my best at work as the previous SIP generations all performed well.. Me being lazy means i have to try harder..and tats what ive been doing.. Bringing sporty tour grps is fun.. I had one 3 hr tour with bowen sec today and they were fun but noisy .. I lectured them..but had fun talking to them.. When someone praises u for the hard work u put in.. it puts a smile on ur face..

Alot more to say..but ill cont a few days later..

A late update this week because i spent the entire morning mahjong-ing.

The 5th week of SIP was a rather peaceful one. I took 2 tours consistiong of adults; NIE- teachers-to-be and At Sunrice- pastry chefs-to-be.. the pastry chefs were fun to talk to and play with.. abit gila .. NIE ones abit sian..

Nothing really notable as this week flew by pretty quickly. It rained on many days which meant i had to water plants less. I dismantled one of the NFT systems due to infestation of bugs and I spent the entire Tuesday morning perspiring like a mad dog. I was just digging and paving soil and weeding the garden. Oh farms helps u to lose weight.

Other than my gradual progress at work, I am proud to say that I have started on my first batch of vegetables for my major project. It's the first time im doing an experiment under such non-sterile conditions as the pics show.












5 hobby kits, cai xin and bottles of nutrients.











A salamander ( rare guest outside my office, usually chameleons)

Putting work aside, I find it really strange that the last few times i played mahjong, my earnings were all 0.. meaning i didnt win, nor did i lose.. damn strange.

On a Sunday night, you cant help but think " Wah sian tmr Monday, gotta wake up at 6 again."
But hey, 5 weeks have gone by.. not that i hate the farm.. i just hate the fact that im doing SIP.

Alright,1 month has passed. Now that i think back, it seems like it's been pretty fast.
I seem to remember the 1st and 4th week most, seems like thats how the brain works.

Anyway, it was a bit disappointing not to be able to go out with Tk and gang today. I guess everyone needs to go out with others every now and then. As for me, it's a good time to rest at home and watch soccer ba. Though i dosed off less this week, it wasnt a lot better.

My job requires me to do and try alot of things. For this week, i was busy preparing for post examination tours, so i was mainly weeding, planting basil seeds into trays, photocopying lotsa activity booklets,shifting baskets of plants to and fro, along with my other usual duties.

I still had fun bringing tours. For e.g i took a big grp of nursery + K1 kids this week. I had fun teaching and playing games with them. In return, they were happy to have me as a teacher and thanked me. It made farmer sng a little happier.











That disgusting blob is cocopeat mixed with water.
I fill up trays with it, then spread seeds 1 by 1 on it.




















Like that.



It's always nice to see the sun set, especially when u're returning home from work. I was trying to capture a nice shot, but all i got was the sun peeping behind the flats.
