Bolehlah tu...

Salam semua. Ini sambungan posting semalam. Dengar khabar ada VVIP nak join kelas 'tai chi golden girls'. Dengar pula ada komen seorang kakak tu bila di tanya 'How was the tai chi kelas?' 'Alah, uselesslah, wasting my time only." Tak ke rasa hampe tu. Bukan beri encouraging words. beri chancelah, kakak oi. Ni volunteer tau. Ada pulak komen kata, bolehlah tu.......So dengan komen-komen macam tu dan dengarlah member akan bertambah, ada pula vvip, must get readylah, perfectly ready, but not as perfect as sifulah who has been practising and practising until perfect movement. Jeng, jeng jeng..... sifu lent me the tai chi guide book for 'revision' (eh, macam exam pulak). This morning, did 'Aspalela' 5 rounds. Then did the 'tai chi' movement under the watchful eyes of sifu herself. She corrected my steps and movements. And the most important thing: how to manage the player especially the tape. So, can you do it? Yes, I can!

Relief teacher

Salam everybody!
This morning I had to to replace my sis for the 'tai chi' session with her 'golden girls' . Just was about to go, it started to rain. To go or not? Called sifu in KL who said just go in case...yes they were waiting and few came in later. Started the class with sstttrrrecchhinnggg session. Continued with warming up, aerobic to 'Aspalela'. Hai yah!! How come ah? Already practised but forgotten the steps, that's the first round lah. Second round, okey, yes learned through mistakes and must focus next time sifu lead the session. Then, 'tai chi'. Alamak, macam mana ni? The tape already in place (set by sifu) pressed the 'play' button but the tape won't move. Maybe tape not placed correctly. Sifu has shown me how to operate the newly bought player. Actually I'm phobia at tapes, scared they'll get entangle in the spool, and this 'tai chi' tape....very valuable. So forget about it and let's 'POCO POCO'. As long as there's music and movement. So we did poco poco with me giving instruction where and how to move. Sweat it out girls!! Okey, now Zapin followed with Joget Lambak. For the first round of Joget , we followed the planned dance steps. Second round, free dance joget movement , get a partner and joget lambak. With no 'tai chi', I really sweat and hopefully the girls too. Just wondering, did they accept me as the relief teacher for that morning. Well, can I replace THE teacher when she's not around?

Teacher Nek Lang

Salam everybody!

Since his school is closed for the whole of this week, nek lang is his teacher. But being the teacher does not mean have full power over the cheeky student. Teacher has to follow his time table, his mood etc. It's sort like flexy time table. There's a slot for 'garuk' while asking him the times table: two, three, four, ten and eleven. There's a computer session: how to log to You Tube and watching his favourite videos Power Rangers (Nek Lang how you spell Power Rangers). He now knows how to go to You Tube by himself. (Nek Lang no need teach me. I know already). He can also turn off the computer, following the correct steps as shown by teacher Nek Lang.(Nek Lang teach me how to shut computer). Bored? Well, back to his toy cars and imaginative play. Or doing his ferry wheel, gymnast in the making? (Nek lang, play spelling.) Ok, teacher follows as long as the student wants to learn. So spelling sessions with some English words spelled in Bahasa Melayu. Some words written in how they are sounded. There's plus and minus exercises (What is Addition and Subtraction, Nek lang) from easy to do work books. There's also writing sessions (I don't like colouring). In between, there's the TV watching session, with the remote control in his hand. He can line up the programmes in Astro Ceria. So you see, no fixed time table, as long as he is occupied. Oh yes, in the afternoon, (nek lang garuk me) and teacher garuk him (must follow his ways too, where and how to) till the one and only pupil falls asleep. Tired, I supposed. Ah.....don't forget there's also the teacher-pupil 'war' when needs not met. But peace treaty quickly signed, must know how to tackle him which needs patient, great patient, plenty of it. So, the whole of this week home schooling with Iddin, my one and only student. Thank you Teacher Nek Lang, Thank You Iddin. Tomorrow another day yah.... (Nek lang, teacher said if get the flu, I have to stay another week at home) Oh YES???? Alamak!

Up.Up and Away

Step one

This is the way!



Twirlling and swirlling



Spinning



Catch it



So the name!!!


Salam everybody!

This is Shafie. He is the roti terbang boy. He can twirll and swirll the roti canai dough up in the air and then catch it neatly, all in one piece. The roti 'flies', terbang. So the name, roti terbang! That's his skill which he learned as a roti canai boy in this eating stall. Look at the pictures, see how bubbly Shafie spins and tosses the roti canai up, up away in the air to the delight of the customers.
