The fall of the Berlin Wall signifies the fall of Communism in the East Germany. Once separated, democracy made it united.
You may not care so much about Germany, but Berlin has always been ‘the one’ of my favorite European city. It is a city full of history as well as modern cultures and technology. Despite the cold weather in winter, there are always marvelous art, music, dance, movies and exhibitions to warm our heart up. (I even once thought that I might marry a German guy and live there for some time of my life! 
but now it turns out to be French guy in HK!!)

Hi everybody! How’s your uniform test going? Are you handling it well? I’m sure you all can!
My health status fluctuated on and off last month. Luckily, I’m feeling much better now. I’m sorry if you’ve found no new post when you visited my blog recently. 
Hey, I’m really interested in how you guys are doing in your first uniform test! For those who have participated in the Speech Festival, are you ready to make your glorious splash in the competition? May I know your competition date? I can go to support if you let me. 
Keep in touch!
Cheers

From time to time, I always watch the Love at First Sight scene of Romeo and Juliet on Youtube. Each of their dialogues is a piece of literature. I wish I could speak like that. Meanwhile, the background music is so sweet. The scene then ends with this beautiful poem: (It is when they find out they are the son and daughter of two enemy families.)
Then Juliet, seeing Romeo leaving, whispered quietly to herself on the balcony:
My only love sprung from my only hate!
Too early seen unknown, and known too late!
Prodigious birth of love it is to me,
That I must love a loathed enemy.

Here is the song ‘Kissing you’:
Lyrics:
Pride can stand a thousand trials,
The strong will never fall
But watching stars without you,
My soul cries.
Heaving heart is full of pain,
Oh, oh, the aching.
‘Cause I’m kissing you, oh.
I’m kissing you, oh.
Touch me deep, pure and true,
Gift to me forever
‘Cause I’m kissing you, oh.
I’m kissing you, oh.
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
‘Cause I’m kissing you.
I’m kissing you, oh.

One of my big expenditure is always fashion. I’m so into fashion especially dresses. I’m not too crazy about shoes but I can’t keep my eyes off “stilettos”, normally with crazy narrow (at least 3 to 4 inches!) heels!! Recently I always switch to Fashion TV as there are lots of 2010 fashion week shows around Europe (like Milan, Paris, London), New York and Tokyo!
Before I show you some gorgeous fashion shows, let’s listen to how Lady GaGa sings about her madness on fashion of the movie Shopaholic and some world-class famous fashion designers. These are the music videos of the movie Shopaholic shown earlier this year. Check it out:

All the thanks to Yvonne, Backstreet Boys have come on air here! This boy group was one of the boy groups that I chased after in all the music programmes on MTV and Channel [V] every weekend when I was a teenager! My eyes were always on tall and cute guys. (I was already 170cm tall when I was 11! Westerners are always taller! You know…… ) Guess which one I like most! Tell me your preference too!!
Um…… why would I choose this songs, the Shape of my Heart? It is because the lyrics of this song can show you how I feel for my students, especially in these verses:
` Chorus:
` Looking back on the things I’ve done
` I was trying to be someone
` I played my part, kept you in the dark
` Now let me show you the shape of my heart
`
` Send in this beautiful loneliness that’s tragical
` So help me I can’t win this war, oh no
`
` I’m here with my confession
` Got nothing to hide no more
` I don’t know where to start
` But to show you the shape of my heart…
`
` I’m looking back on the things I’ve done
` I never wanna play the same old part
` I’ll keep you in the dark
` Now let me show you the shape of my heart
Let’s give it a ‘click’!
Do you know the shape of my heart now?

All the thanks to everyone of you, my stressful and horrible September is gone now! Hurray! It’s all over for now. I just replied all the comments too. Great! I’m happy. There’s not much to worry. 
This following song is ‘Wake me up when September ends’ by Green Day. It’s about a summer love story, which has to ends when September, the time for the man who needs to go for the army training, ends.
To me, it’s great to have my last stressful September ends. However, to you all, as students, when your honeymoon month of the academic year, September, ends, that means it’s time to be serious to focus on your new year study targets. Hence, we won’t regret when it’s too late. Work hard everybody!

Hey, do you know in fact Madame Bouteiller prefers Maths to English? I’ve just come across this interesting way of calculating multi-digit multiplication on YouTube. It is believed that this is how people calculate without a calculator in the past. Check it out:
Can you get it?

Dear students
After 2 weeks of school, have you all got used to a new school life year yet? Is there a lot of work and stress already? Remember, life is like a roller coaster. There are always unexpected ups and down. This is why our life could be so fun and exciting if we take it this away. Just don’t forget that I’ll always be at your side to offer you any support if you need.
Let me dedicate my favourite song, Over the rainbow, to you all. Hope you all will meet your target of the year and bring yourselves over the rainbow one day. Check it out:
All the best!
Cheers
