When i grow up, I wanna be...


A BALLET TEACHER!!! :D (I want to have my own ballet school someday!)
I used to have LOTS of different ambitions when I was younger. Let's see..
1) Professional dancer
2) Vet
3) Zoo-keeper
4) Psychologist
5) School teacher
6) Nurse
.
.
.
.
the list goes on and on...
But these ambitions were short-lived. FINALLY I have made up my mind and decided to become a ballet teacher. :)
Why ballet teaching? I LOVE DANCE!!! <3
It has been my passion ever since I was 6. It would be nice to teach something that you love to others and probably make them love it too! You would also have a great sense of satisfaction when you see your students improve over the weeks, months or ever years of training that they have with you.

Strengths and weaknesses

I'm so glad I can do my mole concept!! :D (At least most of them.) But I'm still not quite sure how to do questions on combustion though, but I'm sure I can master this type of questions after much practice.

After getting back the timed assignment that Ms Jee asked us to do, I realised I've lost one mark over one silly careless mistake!! :( Oh well, at least that's a lesson for me to learn,
CANNOT AFFORD TO MAKE CARELESS MISTAKES!!!
I've also realised that definitions are very important as well. By just making an effort to memorise the definitions, I can easily gain one or two marks during my tests or examinations! So...
MEMORISE YOUR DEFINITIONS!!!
I shall keep working on my weaknesses and turn them into strengths. :D

First Chemistry Lesson :)

Today's chemistry lesson was fun.:D Especially during the lessons held in the chem lab. LOVE IT!!!

Had a mini quiz which was rather easy ( I hope I score the full 8 marks!),we also had small group discussions to discuss some questions.I realized we can actually use the PAUL'S REASONING WHEEL when we read the question.This way we can not only understand the requirements of the question better, but also know what the examiners are testing us and obtain a high score for that question.

I FINALLY CAN DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN NITRIDE AND NITRITE!!!After so long....
NITRIDE is N3- and NITRITE is NO2-. :):):)

During the class discussion, I also realized that MISTAKES MAKE GOOD LEARNING POINTS too!! By learning from my own or my classmates' mistakes when we are presenting our answers, I can remind myself not to repeat these mistakes again during my exam. :D
