I learn to play it simplified.

You cannot be anything you want to be - but you can be a lot more of who you already are.

Happy teachers' day!
My students gave me Teachers' day presents today.
Haha. I was pretty surprised. I forgot i was carrying a teacher slash student identity at the same time. I suddenly realised i was playing two roles and having responsibilty that were at the extreme ends. haha.

The studying me forgot i was a tuition TEACHER.

I'm half a teacher i supposed. haha.

Thanks for the gift kids.
Looks like i cant ignore Children's day gifts, Can i?
haha.



In Craft of Writing lecture yesterday,
There's this example to show the importance of punctuation.
I thought it was very interesting. =)

The example:
In class, the teacher told the students to fill in the punctuation marks for the following sentence.

Woman without man are nothing

The first that came up was a MALE student.

He wrote:
Woman without man, are nothing.

(and all the guys in the lecture roared and cheered.)

The next that came up was a FEMALE student.

She wrote:
Woman! Without, man are nothing.

(and all the ladies in the lecture roared and cheered even louder)

Its a brilliant example, isn't it?
Grins.
