My first post for 2012! It's February already! January passed by without knowing. 2011 had been a fruitful year! May 2012 be an interesting and exciting year too, lots of new discoveries for me to go and explore! Made many new friends and colleagues in 2011, what's so great was that, they're all nice people! There are still many many good souls around!(: Give and Take - essence to maintaining any relationship :D Not forgetting my friends who are always there, may we have more meet ups and gatherings!

Most importantly, my family! Although, CNY this year was a bit boring but I witnessed what's the true meaning of kinship and the bond between one another could be brought closer due to an incident. It's through those 'incidents' that we feel and get 'touched' by another person/people that you want to 'build' and 'mantain' your relationship with that person/people. (:

Passion is the intrinsic motivation that push you to go further :D


Have you heard of Tangram before? Tangram is an ancient chinese puzzle game with endless pattern formations! It is made up of 7 pieces and the word "Tangram" is also made up of seven letters! hehe! Such an interesting invention! :D haha! What's more is that there's no right or wrong in this game! It's all up to your creativity!

I only get to know about this "toy/game" recently! My colleague introduced this game to me, thanks a lot!! (: Kind of like it very much! I'm using it for my assignment for my play module! To prove that it is appropriate for children aged 6 and below, I get my cousin to help me to play this game! (: I'm impressed, she was able to construct designs which I didnt even know how to construct out of the 7 pieces of puzzle! (; Clapssss!!! Never underestimate a child! 

hehe! i also tried playing with it and during my first attempt, i constructed a kangaroo! After a while, when i tried to construct a kangaroo again, i couldn't do it -.-"!

Children nowadays are too tied down by assignments, workbooks, worksheets! But the truth is that, children learn through play, meaningful play! It is through meaning play that they understand mathematical concepts by themselves and this will build a strong foundation in their primary school education! haha! no wonder children or even adults Hate Math in sch, because mathematical concepts are ''drilled into their brain by force"!

It's taking too long for the tangram to be delivered to my house and thus, i tried making it by myself! phew! luckily, I managed to do it!


It's a fish!

It's a bat!



It's a rooster! all made by her!

Today is the first lesson for a brand new module!(: - learning through play in children. Kind of like this module even before i attend it today, because somehow or somewhat i can anticipate that it will be a very interesting and "wow" module! What makes me more "WOW" was when I saw the lecturer today!

I like the way she speaks, the way she present herself and also the way she carry out her lesson! I can guarantee that for her 13 sessions, i will not fall asleep! I love her humorous, dramatic and fun personality and not forgetting her VOICE! (: what's more is that she has that X-FACTOR in her that draws people's attention to whatever she says, it sounds a bit exaggerating though, but it's pretty true (:

Lesson learnt - be dramatic and exaggerating so that you will be able to attract the attention of the preschoolers. haha! :D Not easy ~


Forensic Heroes 3, Body of Proof, Unforgettable - one word to describe them --> cool!


Looking forward to watch "Breaking Dawn"! haha! :D
