It's been a busy week. I don't really know what to blog about but I have to keep going to continue with NaBloPoMo. I think come December, there may be a few days of me taking a break. A break to read others' blogs and to reply to comments on my own. With trying to blog every single day, I realise I am lagging behind in reading all the other blogs and in responding to comments. Please bear with me.
The school year is almost coming to an end (Yay!!!) Another couple of weeks to go and it's done. But it also means a lot of work in these two weeks. For some reason, everyone realises now is a good time to have some students assessed. Why, I ask you! So not only am I assessing students rapidly, I'm doing observations and writing lengthy reports...at home, might I add. I have decided though...come 2010, I am not bringing work home. That is going to be a new year's resolution. I'm going to try and be up-to-date by the end of this year so that I don't bring work home. And instead, I am going to look at other activities to do in the evenings.
On a different note, I have been interviewed again. I know many bloggers have been interviewed by these folks but it's still a nice feeling. :) I must say, I really liked the title of the interview - A Cup of Coffee with Psych Babbler. Has a nice ring to it.
And finally, today is one year since the terrorist attack in Bombay. I'm currently watching a doco on ABC called 'Surviving Mumbai' where they are talking to the survivors of 26/11. It still seems so surreal watching places I visited every day for 5 years such as VT station have people lying in pools and pools of blood. I must say one thing --- people are resilient out there. When I visited Bombay earlier this year, I was very nervous about possible terror attacks (as reported by the wonderful media) but people went on with their lives as normally as possible. Which is incredible.
Until next time,
Cheers!!!
