35歳生日大驚!!!

看來I'm in my early thirties.這句話離我愈來愈遠了!
昨天中午正當我在午睡時接到了一通不出聲音的電話,接著就收到一通接一通的簡訊,才看完一通就又來了一通...而且每一通的訊息都是從不同的人傳來的,簡訊內容還得串起來!!!我立刻撥電話給發給我第一通簡訊的琬鈞,我問她你們是不是全都在一起!她說沒有,她人在北港,一群人是先講好時間陸續發出來的!當時我覺得真感動,這個生日禮真是有創意!上完第五節,幸怡老師忽然跑到202教室跟我說辦公室有我的電話,結果是大黑!他說要跟我約晚上吃飯的時間,還跟我講一堆從彰師騎摩托車到忠明要多少時間,還要等心機,載大點等等的話,又說他忽然看到心機,問我要不要跟心機說話....接著心機又來講了一堆...我就跟他說,晚上不是要一起吃飯嗎,到時候再聊嘍!接著,第六節上課了,202小老師很開心地跑來,我想是不是全班又要起立唱生日歌給我聽!果不其然,一進教室就有人喊起立!但這聲音太熟悉了,一看過去育誠就坐在最後一排!!!再往旁邊看,就看到壯壯,大黑,心機,梓瑋,坦克,再仔細一看就看到大點,會長,雅心,最後看到坐在第一排的仲汶!看到你們穿著制服在位子上,我真的驚訝到說不出話!雖然你們說看不出來我很驚訝,但我真的嚇傻了,所以不知該說些什麼話!只是一直笑,其實我鼻酸了,眼淚差點流下來,因為很開心看到你們,而且很感動,感覺回到了高三4!!!梓瑋還代表送了我"棗子""生雞蛋""桂圓紅棗茶""紫菜"!!!你們真是太貼心了啦!
我一向自認自己很精明,不過你們的演技真的很好,育誠原來從上週就一直在騙我,說什麼星期一課太多,沒法從中壢趕回來和我吃晚餐...!大黑和心機,我真的以為你們通電話時還在彰師正趕著去上課!
第六節下課回到辦公室又看到從苗栗回來的螞蟻,隨後曉慧和謀文也來了,連遠在台北的阿猴都趕回來了!晚餐時,還有一位不能透露身份的神秘嘉賓!
我真的非常感動,可是你們不讓我請你們吃飯,害我覺得很難過!開車回家的路上,我整個人超不專心!真的覺得自己好幸福,有你們這些可愛的學生!!!

PS.感謝所有在FACEBOOK留言給我,傳簡訊給我,寫EMAIL給我,寫卡片給我,做卡片給我,寫信給我祝我生日快樂的朋友/家人/學生們!!!沒辦法一一道謝,只能在這裡抒發我對你們的感謝!!!I LOVE YOU!!! Truly, Madly, Deeply!!!

臺灣真的有這麼小嗎?

台中市辦全國運動會時,我們放了一個禮拜的假...老師們中很多去了日本和墾丁!而我呢從日本變成花蓮變成了北海岸!!!唉!我就是這麼善變:)第一天先去了真理大學和淡江中學,真的很漂亮!中午去淡水,居然在老街遇見了3個學生!!!第二天去金瓜石,又在黃金博物園區遇到2個學生!晚上住的民宿是以前在台北教書時帶學生去玩所住的"雲山水",但現在已經租給別人重新裝潢成"緩慢"民宿了!住在這裡可以看山看雲和看海看美麗的公路,所以我超愛這個地方!想到以前阿政老闆都會帶著一群學生去爬廢煙道(一長排學生坐在上頭照相超有趣),走秘道到十三層遺址的上方學張宇拍MTV,到可愛的濂洞國小滑從二樓下到一樓教室的溜滑梯,晚上提著燈籠去夜遊遠跳大肚美人山,還會帶著大家放天燈!現在改裝成民宿,再也沒有機會帶一大群學生來了!!!(以前從雲山水望向另一個山頭提著燈籠夜遊的學生們,一長串紅光在寧靜的夜晚看起來真的好有FEEL!)
最後一天我們去了鼻頭角,那裏真的很美!

Irreplaceable

For S103,
Listen to the song and enjoy the MV at:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsQvXgCcng8

This song vividly depicts how a girl feels when she is betrayed by her lover. Do you believe that you'll find true love in your life? Or do you think there's no such thing as eternal love?

She's so vulnerable!

For S202 & S206,
Hope that you all like this song and don't forget the key word "vulnerable".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5ObcR4sIes

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqO5vcVpAtw&feature=related

You'll be able to see what the two singers look like in either version.

I can't help falling in love with you!!!

For S103,
Do you still remember what I taught you in class today?
***can't help + Ving***

來自彰化的訪客

星期三晚上,心機和大黑居然打電話給我說要來家裡坐!這是我教書以來,首二位到大甲來找我的喔!為了紀念,所以決定打在網誌裡!先前在台北教,帶完他們三年後就離開台灣,所以學生也沒得找我!後來回來就在台中市教,所以學生也不可能到家裡!哈...這就是我的陰謀啦!有學生問我怎麼不回大甲教,我當然不想嘍!這樣我就算穿著拖鞋走在大甲街,或者頭髮亂七八糟地在散步,也不會被認出來啦!

英詩創作大賽之自然組篇

For S206,
I was very happy to see that most of you did your utmost to complete your task! The winners are as follows.

Group 1
Love is water,
Something we can't live without.
Love is underwear,
Invisible but important.

Group 4
Love is the sunlight,
Light up my life.
Love is the twilight,
Faint but stays forever in my mind.

Group ???
Love is the sky,
Mostly sunny but sometimes rainy.
Love is the feather,
Soft but easy to disappear.
Love is coffee,
Bitter but tasty.
Love is everything,
Enrich my life.
Love is my guide,
Take me far and wide.

英詩創作大賽

For S202,
I have to say...you guys are fantastic! In today's English class, you have achieved something remarkable! All the seven poems you wrote in ten minutes impressed me! And I'm now going to announce who the winners are!

The first place goes to.....Group 1
********
Family is a shelter,
Keep us from danger.
Family is a heater,
Warm us in winter.
Family is the water,
Give us power.
Family is an eraser,
Wipe away our tears.
********

The second place goes to.....Group 3
********
Happiness is the kite,
Enable us to fly high.
Hapiness is the twilight,
Take us through the night.
Happiness is the apple pie,
Make us smile.
Happiness is the sunshine,
Light up our life.
********

A low-profile girl's version
********
Truth is a gun,
Hurt someone cruelly.
Truth is the sun,
Keep the lie hidden in the shadow usually.
Truth is the only one
Won't change easily.
********

How wonderful your works are!!!
