Announcements made by the Ministry of Education (MOE) earlier this month shares on revisions in the education system. Below are key highlights at a glance.
1. Primary Schools
- Higher Edusave contributions from 2019 onwards. Primary school students will receive $230 annually, a 15% increase from the current $200.
- Currently, more than 80 primary schools offer Applied Leaning Programmes (ALP). By 2023, all primary school students will undergo ALP.
- The income criterion for Edusave Merit Bursary (EMB) will be raised from a monthly Gross Household Income of $6000 to $6,900 or PCI of $1,725 from $1,500.
2. Secondary Schools
- Secondary school students will receive an Edusave contribution of $290 annually, a 20% increase from the current $240.
- By 2019, more than 50 schools will offer Applied Subjects at the O-Level, and 30 schools will offer MOE-ITE Applied Subjects at the N(T)-Level.
- The eligibility criteria for the Polytechnic Foundation Programme (PFP) will be extended to students with N-Levels ELMAB3 aggregate score of 12 points and below, starting from the 2019 PFP intake, up from 11 points and below currently

What I've Been Into Lately
The title of this post is a bit misleading, I admit. Because truthfully, the bulk of what I've been into lately involves not very exciting things like nursing nonstop (so sitting in a chair, then?), thinking of things to eat that can be prepared and shoved into my face with one hand (which evidently doesn't leave much time for the baking or taking pictures of food), and trying to find time to pee alone. But what I really wanted to do was pop in today, say hello! and we're still all alive! and sometimes even bathed!, and share a few things that have made my days a little brighter while careening through the Newborn Tunnel of (Sometimes) Hell.
I've managed to get back on track with exercise, which has been key in maintaining my sanity. In an unexplained bout of inspiration (and a longing to get back into my regular clothes), two weeks ago I decided to take up running again after nearly a year. To be kind to my post-pregnancy joints and bones, I've decided to take it allll the way back to 2003 when I first started running, and ease back into a running routine with the Couch to 5k program. Of course now, instead of obsessively glancing at a watch to track intervals while listening to the very first Maroon 5 album on a CD walkman, there are fancy things like this Couch to 5k app that does all the thinking for you, and features voice cues that gently interrupt your iPhone's playlist to tell you when to run and when to walk. Awesome. I love technology when it's idiot-proof.
I ordered this book recently and have bookmarked the bananas out of it. I've got mad kitchen plans, believe you me.
I've been making this recipe for dinner probably once a week since the baby was born. Add some broccoli and instant brown rice (cooked with chicken or veg stock instead of water), and BOOM. Ultimate easy-yet-satisfying meal. So simple, cheap, kind of old school, kid-friendly, and unreal delicious. And good for two night's worth of dinners--hallelujah!
We also got a few awesome meals out of this fantastic take on Spanikopita from one of my favorite people, The Wednesday Chef. No better way to get your greens, people. Just add wine.
In the "I've made them 100 times, but never blogged about them" category, here are some of the world's best cookies. In fact, I have a Ziploc full of these frozen cookie dough balls in my freezer right now. It's how I've been keeping my family in freshly baked cookies all these weeks like some kind of deranged June Cleaver.
I haven't bought any new clothes just yet, but when I do, I'm using this resource. The concept gives me a major case of "Why didn't I think of that?!". I'm getting all into it within the next couple months, which is to say when I get a bit more weight off of my maternal midsection.
Okay, so, I lied on that last point. I have purchased these flip flops in Light Gold, which add a little bit of something special to my Dreary Mom Outfits.
To further celebrate the fact that I'm no longer retaining water and my feet have stopped looking like Shrek's, I got a glorious pedicure with this nail color, which is always my Happy Color. It makes me feel more together even when I'm in pajamas. I have decided that it's my Forever Toenail Polish. I'll be working it into my will.
Unlike my strategy with my first child, I've had this new kid on the move and out in the world since day 4. It's saved my sanity. But it's a bonus when the days involve more than marathon trips to Target. Like lunch at the perfect restaurant with an amazing friend, and making it a double with a dessert pitstop at one of San Francisco's best bakeries. Now that's a good day, even if you've got a sweaty baby strapped to your chest.
Add to that an actual, in-person meeting (at a new-ish, and completely perfect SF bakery) with a heretofore strictly online friend, during which you find out that she's as fabulous as you'd hoped, and every bit as lovely as her website. Again with aforementioned baby strapped to chest, but a magical meeting nonetheless. Big ups for real people in an unreal world.

Can I get some golem stuff? Maybe different types of golems? Like mobile treb golem? Could have slower run speed and have to 'lock into ground' in order to fire long range treb?
Probably dont want the game Golem Wars, but I do. Maybe just some golem skin then? Something for golem? Thx!
We already got 1 shot sniper builds in the game now, might as well turn alphas into Maxs and omegas into BFRs and call this Planetside.
"Is there pvp stuff for this?" "Absolutely, eh we actually have a new armor set coming soon."

You've conveyed what I wanted to say very well!
I agree the game isn't perfect & there is definitely room for improvement (I mean, even the dev herself admits the game's weaknesses in the fanbook), but there's nothing perfect in this world, and playing Seiyuu Danshi was an enjoyable time to me. The second and third playthrough are definitely more tedious than the first, but I think that's how it goes for most gameplay-based games.
There isn't anything wrong with not liking the game, though! I myself don't like some games other people like (for example, I find myself getting sleepy several times while I played NTY!), but even though you might not like the game, doesn't mean that there aren't others enjoying the game for what it is. I (and I think I'm not alone in this) don't want the gameplay to be drastically reduced or changed, because I enjoy how it is right now. Further improvements on furnitures and dress-up system is definitely a welcome change, though!
Anyway, the dev is making a new game now, and I'm hoping that the dev will overcome the weak part of Seiyuu Danshi in the new game ^^

NAC Preview: Singer-songwriter Ben Caplan sings to those seen as 'others'
Ben Caplan
with Geoff Berner
7:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 10, Babs Asper Theatre, National Arts Centre
Tickets: $27.55, available at NAC box office and ticketmaster.ca
Dog-whistling politicians don't usually inspire great art. But inspiration can be a strange thing.
Halifax-based singer-songwriter Ben Caplan says one of the earliest sparks for both his album Old Stock and the theatre production based on the same songs came from an unlikely source, albeit in a negative way. In 2015, then Prime Minister Stephen Harper used the term "old stock Canadians" in a national debate during his failed attempt at re-election.
It proved to be a controversial and polarizing remark, particularly since it was made when discussing refugees. It immediately brought accusations that Harper had purposely used the term to energize his base and engage in identity politics. Harper denied this. But Caplan was among many Canadians who found the remark deeply unsettling. Why separate new and "old stock" Canadians, particularly during a debate about health care for refugees?
"It really sounded like a dog whistle to me," says Caplan, in an interview with Postmedia. "It sounded to me like a call to make an 'us' and a 'them,' to be 'othering' new Canadians."
Caplan found himself applying it to his own family history, which included his Jewish great-grandparents immigrating to a less-than-welcoming Canada 100 years ago.
"They were others," says the songwriter, who will be performing at the National Arts Centre on April 10. "They were not considered to be the natural Canadian stock and they were not considered the sort of people who could become old stock Canadians."
All of this would eventually come to inform both Old Stock: A Refugee Love Story, the theatre piece Caplan co-created with playwright Hannah Moscovitch and songwriter Christian Barry, and Old Stock, the album Caplan adapted from it.
Caplan and Barry teamed up to write a musical — or a "concert-theatre mashup" — with the guiding principle that all the songs should be able to stand on their own outside of a narrative. But initially they struggled with what that narrative should be.
"Partially in response to Harper and partially in response to seeing the image of the young child Alan Kurdi washing up on a beach in Turkey, we realized we wanted to make it about refugees and about immigrants," Caplan says. "That hadn't been clear to us before, we had been searching for some story. As we began to hone in on a refugee story, Moscovitch discovered the story of her great-grandparents, which had been unknown to her.
"Having just given birth to her first child, she went on a trip with some relatives to the Pier 21 museum in Halifax and realized she was standing on the very ground that her great-grandparents had passed through in order to make her own life and the life of her child possible for her in Canada. It was a real moving moment for her and really became the underpinning for this theatrical production."
Old Stock: A Refugee Love Story opened in Halifax in 2017 with Caplan in the lead role. It would later enjoy successful runs in New York and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
But on April 10, the singer-songwriter will be performing more of a straightforward concert, albeit one that draws heavily from the new album and is backed by a five-piece band well-versed in the traditional Jewish and Eastern European strains, including klezmer, that the new songs require.
The show will also feature Vancouver singer-songwriter Geoff Berner, a master of klezmer-punk whose songs Widow Bride and Traveler's Curse are covered by Caplan on Old Stock.
Caplan was born in Hamilton, Ont., but has been based in Halifax since his college days. Old Stock is his third record and reflects his growing interest in the music of his ancestors.
"I didn't grow up with klezmer music as such as much as I grew up going to synagogue and hearing some of these musical modes through liturgical services," he says. "I really didn't have a deep sense of the musicality of those kinds of sounds until my early 20s when I had this epiphany listening to a brass band and realizing that this Balkan brass sounded deeply familiar and personal even though it's totally different than anything I had ever heard before.
"That began a process of exploration and research and digging into those musical styles, which have crept more and more into my musical output from album to album. This album, Old Stock, and this project was really an opportunity for me to dig in with both hands and explore what was there."
