老师教发音是要我们特别仔细听好。小时候把’English‘ 读为“硬给利息”的同学当了银行家；读为“因果关系”的成了哲学家；读为“硬改历史” 的成了领导；而我不小心读成”应该累死“，结果我当了老师。 唉，自作孽活该！
小明造句拿0分。
1）难过：我家前面有一条大水沟，很难过去。
2） 如果：可乐不如果汁营养。
3） 天真：今天真热。
4）十分：妹妹只考了十分，真丢脸。
5）从容： 我做事都从容易的做起。
6）棉被：小玉的卫生棉被被偷了。
7）便当：弟弟把大便当每天起床非得做的事。

Colours of my Home
Almost a month into my new house in Pasir Ris, my house is still in 'turmoil' and 'mess'.
Firstly that Changi airport-Number 1-sister of mine may take another 2 to 3 weeks for the least to 'clear' her unpacking.
Secondly, we are still in the midst of adaptation, adapting to new environment (even though my first school as a teacher was in Pasir Ris Primary back in 1997, come to think of it, I do have some linkage and fate seems to pull me back to this area again ), adapting to the distances that I had to put up with (longer time and cost) to any parts of Singapore, adapting to just living with my sister instead of 6 in a family, adapting to making my own breakfast, lunch and dinner etc etc.
All these perhaps are just excuses to settling down. Afterall, I had experienced the solitary living back in Arizona. Ahhhh... those good old days! Perhaps it is the reconciliation of my freedom ( if I was married twenty years back, I would have the adulthood freedom long time ago) since 2007 that i am trying to adapt to and it was not without anticipation two months back. I had abused that sort of freedom for three whole years doing whatever i love to, when i want to and how i want it! Now it still seems like a sudden jerk that i have this freedom back again though there is still some sort of restriction like Loo Loo still snoozing away in this late afternoon and I cannot sing at the top of my voice as our walls are pretty thin in this estate.
`Watercolours` is the name for our estate and yet from the exterior there is nothing colourful to it, even our walls and ceiling initially was white! Now that we have our house painted, our theme is still very much far from colours, grey is our theme. Loo and I had always been others' shadows and we had never liked to be in the limelight, so i pretty much expected our 'colours' will remain this way even if we were to choose again.
I will treasure this moment and many more 'colours' to come!
Come what may, ode to my new home!
