*sobs* It is utterly devastating... Sigh. A match 'made in heaven'.. well, supposedly so. Apparently, not so... I can't believe how I feel now, coz it feels terrible. Maybe it was coz I started 'multi-timing', a term adapted from the popular, widely-appreciated 'two-timing'. Well, obviously the other partner couldn't take it anymore, and it is... over. Well, a breakup was …

While flipping through the newspaper, Mr Fong chanced upon a newspaper article (following a tip-off from fellow conspirator- Bobo) in the Straits Times on the 3 PSLE questions that students contributed 'from memory', for SEAB refused to disclose the questions.The SEAB does not stand for "Set Easy, Ask Bull****" (how come got four asterisks wan ah? what is it??)! Similarly, …

Ok not funny. Haha. I have had so much work to clear, and they are still not …

Well, this was what Mr Fong's students asked him (rather adorably, yes yes) after they got their presents from him. Mr Fong does not know why he chose to buy them presents, but since it is …

Being a Maths tutor, I'm now making the dreadful announcement that all PSLE group classes for 2008 have been filled... *sobz*. My intake has been burgeoning, and while I enjoyed the years of teaching PSLE (throughly enjoyed, in fact), it is time now to shift away from such easy maths focusing too much on this Stress Spring. It is now the time to put an end to churning out A* …

Trinity from Rooms of My Heart tagged me on a meme to talk about the Best Memories of 2007. I think it's quite a useful meme, seeing that the year is ending, and bcoz there's no point carrying excess baggage over to next year. If not, I could become overweight worrying and unpleasant... oop.Do read this room in her heart (not a hole, btw) to get the rules, I'm too lazy to …

A brief 5-day respite has come back due to the insurgence of Harry Potter, and now Mr Fong has to quickly wipe memories of the kids he gave birth to The-Book-That-Must-Not-Be-Named, and continue to inspire Mathematical scoring in the PSLE, and in Mr Fong's naggy words, to score The Goal Called A*!Now, dear readers, concentrate: Have you ever been told off by your mum for …

Today Mr Fong met Farinelli at Holland V. After brief job interviews (Mr Fong is turning Dutch), Mr Fong met Farinelli and he forced they decided to go to Coffee Club. Did anyone guess if Mr Fong took an interview there? Yeah, he did.Coffee Club was sparsely decorated, but had a very quiet atmosphere, which made Mr Fong's booming voice even more, erm, booming. It was a hugely …

Yesterday... was the Big Day. From 12pm to 1pm, Mr Fong faced a barrage of calls and SMSes, like "Mr Fong ah, good luck for your students hor!", or calls to shout the results into my ear (why shout?) delightedly. For a moment, in that 1-hour period, he wondered what had made him so attractive and ... alluring, while lying in a cosy spa bath (actually not, just his bathtub in …

Everyday I check MyBlogLog for my stats and I patiently read up the forums,PSLE complaints and grouses of grouchy parents and I start dreaming and posting rubbish replies there without actually trying to read the content because I know that any paper, as long as dubbed 'PSLE Maths', would inevitably lead to complaints and arguments that scream "ONLY MY SON CAN DO WELL!" or …

I have not been posting...... Well, not because I'm busy, more of lazy. Play here play there, hehehe... wonder how to be a tutor after playing so much, maybe I would play with them in class next year instead, hahaha. I'm considering changing levels to teach, but I'm lazy, again. Teaching 12-year-olds would be much easier, for I already know the syllabus and the intricacies, …

Am I burnt out from blogging? Well, it's hard to say. I really do not see the need to provide any more posts, but many friends have emerged. You know who you are, thank you... For just this post, 'Mr Fong' is no more - just an ordinary human being. Considering the fact that I hope don't think I'm an alien...PSLE results are coming out, and I can feel the nerves fraying. Haha. …

OK I am aware of the fact that holidays are not here.Yet.But for your dearest Mr Fong, it is just around the corner! What with programmes and National Day coming up, it is just the perfect time to stir up some dormant nationalism in Mr Fong and make him "sing the Anthem and recite the Pledge with gusto". Righttt.However, Mr Fong is serious that he is going to take a short …

No, of course Mr Fong does not intimate that parents are still taking PSLE lah (?!!).Dear parents, I fully understand your plight (in spite of Mr Fong not having children). The role of being generals and managers o young charges is never a bed of roses, and therefore, Mr Fong has also included you in his Annual National Day PSLE Address!*thunderous applause from the rooftops, …
