you know how lazy you are
when you're squeezing out the last bit of toothpaste for the past few days.

homecoming
it's two in the afternoon and i'm waiting for lunch to appear, so i might as well blog something.
holidays are (sadly) over and it's a new semester, new term, a new beginning. but to be honest, i sorta missed hearing the school bells and noise pollution from the kids. i've got new classes on my timetable, so that amounts to about two hundred faces and names i gotta remember.
there are times when i wonder if this is God's calling, or am i at the wrong side of the grassland. but something affirming is that i feel that the love for these children is growing, though it drains myself dry.
it almost feels strange to have ex-students visiting; faces that you used to see everyday, they disappear for some time after graduation and here there they are again. i know its like a homecoming to them, but what i didnt notice was that it felt the same to me. if this is cyclical, i better get used to it.
where is my lunch?

what's on channelnewsasia today?
1) Singapore's total population grew to 4.84m in 2008, up 5.5% over previous year
let's take a look where did the 5.5% really come from judging from the low fertility rate here.
with a quarter of the population being foreigners, i say that is a pretty substantial number. imagine for every majong table you set up, there's a foreigner there. pretty amazing how many people can squeeze into this little red dot.
2) Chinese star Jet Li 'takes Singapore citizenship'

So is he Chinese or Singaporean, or both? i'm just wondering if the reporter will address him as singaporean star, or chinese star in the next report!
3) Could North Korea Provoke a New Korean War?
for the future of korean dramas, i hope not.
4) McDonald's Garlic Chilli is back! (yes i added that)
this is no rumour! goodbye bad chilli! garlic chilli is here to stay!
