^.-

I was trying to draw a face with 'raised eyebrows'..wasn't tat successful..eh?

There're a few things over the past couple of weeks that made me raise my eyebrows..those i can share here, i will..

TV Progs - Well, i'm of the few who survives on free-to-air tv..it could be cos i dun really watch tv(or maybe tats why i dun watch tv) but anyway, what i happen to chance upon the other day really made me wonder the standard of tv programmes these days..

i switched on the ang moh channel..and for a while, i thought i was on the wrong channel..cos what i saw was some makan programme(every other prog is food-related these days)..nothing wrong with tat..wat made me really went 'huh?!' was that it was actually a local cheena prog dubbed in ang moh..oh my..this is such a lazy way of tv programming! It was shown on prime time too..8pm..oh c'mon..surely the tv station can do better than to dub some cheena prog and show it on ch angmoh? i dun think it was even tat popular on its original channel..

The other thing that made me raised my right eyebrow(yes, i can only do it with the right, not the left..dun ask why)was that, again, i accidentally came across this scene(nothing to do with our local tv station this time): it's a chinese period drama..about this couple lost in the wild(at least this is wat i gathered from the 2 mins i spent watching)..and they're at this god-forsaken place..it's cold..it's snowing..and it has 2 polar bears! The polar bears scene is obviously 'cut & paste' from some natgeo prog..oh my..

In my job, I dun usually teach children below 7 yrs..it's rather different teaching 3 years old vs 13 years old vs 30 years old..and while i'm ok with kids, i dun see myself as kids-loving as some other people i know..

I just realised how much i 'lowered' my age limit when one of my students kept scratching his backside(seriously!)..i thought he needed the loo so i brought him up to his apt..one look and the mum said, 'must be fussing about his pampers again'..then proceeded to take off his shorts and remove his pampers..for a moment, i was like @.@..
