Miri Life

It’s been a while since I last updated the blog. Not that I don’t want to update…I hardly have a lot of things to rant about =) or to share.

How can one complain so much about staying at home when everything you want is available? Home is indeed the best place ever. Might not want to leave home anymore!

Here’s my daily routine:
I wake up at 0500 then I head to work by 060 or 0610 the latest as I don’t want to be caught up in the so-called traffic jam. The jams here aren’t that bad compare to KL. It is still moving though there’re many cars. I just like to have a smooth drive all the way without stopping too much.

Then I knock off at work at 1600. I usually will go for my walks with Jennifer before heading home at 1730. I recently started playing badminton but not sure how long would that last! As walking in the sun at 1630 sometimes is TOO HOT and I have to use an umbrella! Don’t mind the stare it’s my face/skin that needs protection.

After my walks, I have tuition. I give tuition to primary school kids for Maths, English and Bahasa Malaysia. They’re a lot easier to teach. I have a few secondary kids but mainly Bahasa Malaysia and History. Gosh, it brings back memories on how I used to study history. When I was in high school, history was one of the subject I dislike soooo much! Now, I can’t believe I am teaching it. I’ve taught them in school when I was doing my temp job. It wasn’t that hard after all! After all, I did international relations in uni so I like the subject and it’s related to HISTORY! And basically needs a lot of memorizing and knowing the FACTS correctly. That’s all. Probably due to poor language, that’s why they do not understand what the teacher is teaching and sometimes students would like to know more and that’s where story telling comes in. I love CHINA’S history!

After my tuition, I usually hit the sack by 2130! Yes, 2130 I’d be asleep. My whole routine will start again at 0500 the next day.
