I can has march holiday?

In one simple word, no. In fact, i probably had more free time during the CNY break.

But when you put things into perspective, it's really not so bad. In fact, this March break is the first one week school holiday since i've been trained as a teacher that i've actually had the chance to enjoy any real holiday time (that's actually just one day's worth, and it's not due till Friday, but i'm cautiously optimistic)

The past two September breaks were spent at reservist training. 'Nuff said about that. (Another round coming up in a bit...)

Last year's March holiday was spent on a working trip to India. And as much as i love them (and while there's much room for improvement in that department, i do), spending time with students does not equate to a holiday, be it in S'pore or overseas. Not in my book anyways.

In any case, i fear that the recurring theme of the posts here in the past year or so in particular have tended towards the complaining type. And especially when taking things within the larger context of many of the world events of the past couple of months, my complaints really just wither in comparison. On that note, i do hope that the MediaCrap VP for MarComms does a lot of soul-searching...
