monday

moved stuff from present school to holding school. both my department and cca were moving on the same day, so i waz in school the whole day. then went for josh mcdowell talk. he reminded me of the importance of relationships. hence, i waz re-motivated to prioritise the building of meaningful relationships, upon which all other things are built on. and not get swept away by the swarm of work and life's other pressures day in day out.

tuesday

had to prepare for the big move on wednesday - printing out all the movement plans and route maps for different classes, confirming all the transport arrangements and reminding all my student helpers to be on time. initially, i thought i would be able to leave in the afternoon. however, in the end, i only left school around 1930 hr, coz the cd-rom had some trouble, and we had to stay back to settle it. then one of my colleagues had to bring home the conference room keys, and he had to trot all the way back from hougang to bedok (he already reached home liaoz!) to lock up the room. then we had dinner.

wednesday

the big move. din really sleep well. kept waking up. woke up at 0500 hr in the end. reached school to paste masking tapes on the parade square to tell the kids where to sit. then i helped set up the reception and gave out the necessary stuff to the home teachers. the parade went on as planned. thank God the buses and london cabs came on time, and did not cause any hiccups to the parade. then it waz the move. thank God that the teachers and students were all co-operative and helpful (like taking classes which are not their home class) and the move went on smoothly - no one met with any mishaps or waz stranded or lost. then it waz over to the holding school, where everything waz fine except the cheers sounded really weak and lifeless. then it waz a whole afternoon of after action review (aar). till 1700 hr, after which i had to rush down to my cca chalet. thank God my colleague sent me there. i waz super late (they met at 1500 to go - i only arrived around 1800+). went to bbq pit for food. students did everything. im proud of them. thankful to the teachers for helping out too. mingled around with the students. had a mini ceremony thanking the secondary 4 students. students left. had a really long talk (0130 - 0630) with one of my students.
