rachelle, nope, me not a teacher with MOE.. but in the education sector too .. ;p
start work in term 2 not here not there hor.. i have a fren, a teacher, who took one yr no pay to look after her kids and supplement her income with tuition.. hmm.. apparently it's financially hard lah.. so she's back in school le.. my hubby said the same thing.. must work ..
Shirlin,
dun know at where ah? so risky.. but then u stay quite central so not so bad... ya, consider properly.. life is always an irony .. those who give up career to spend time wif kids sometimes regret when they lose touch with society and is no longer of "value"..those who carve careers and miss out on growing years of kids regret they lose those precious moments forever..so both ways, there will be "risks"..i guess important thing is to not regret decision once made bah... sigh..
Anyway, i'm resisting the urge to spend on clothes since they outgrow them so fast..so if we r going sweep gap tom, remind me i can only buy ONE set for CNY...hahah
