horrifying news flash: i've only been working for 10days. TEN DAYS. how is that possible?!
anyway, today was disastrous to say the least. i honestly thought it couldnt get any worse. i hate all my p3 classes. they're so exasperating. i can't tell if it's me or what. cos like all my other classes aren't like that! perhaps p4s and 5s are more sensible, and p1s are more afraid of 'big people' and p3s are just at the stage where they know teachers can't actually do anything to them but arent ready to listen to them for their own good. their attitude really sucks and they're only, what, 8 or 9 years old?? especially the damn boys. since when does the teacher have to INVITE you to be punished. wtf man. the girls in my class and real sweethearts, thank goodness. they're like a buffer to the damn boys. one of them gave me a note today. after i got damn pissed and walked out of the class. and another came up to me and said she wanted to make me a card. haha.
and i love my p1s. they're soooo cuteee. omg. when i see them running about in the canteen and they say hi to me i'm just like I WANT YOU GUYS AND NOT MY FIENDISH P3S. honestly i was damn pissed before i went down to eat, cos just after my form class got blasted by the discipline mistress, i asked them if they were interested in doing the science worksheet and half of them had the cheek to say no. i think i can join the 'kids these days' camp right now i tell you. but then i came down, and as i was queueing up, one boy from my p1 class came up behind, hit my butt (cos that was the only place he could reach HAHA) and said boo! oh man. that was seriously the highlight of my day ok. hahahah. he's so freaking cute. i always thought he looked damn dao in class, but yesterday as i was walking them out to their parents, he started talking to me about spiders and held my hand. so cute ok. and that's why i can't bear to quit. cos of cute kids like him.
not all p1 classes are cute tho, i found out today. i met my ss class today for the first them and they dont even know that such a class existed. so the moment i stepped in they all started screaming for their form teacher and i had to reassure them that i was only going to be there for one period. half the class didnt even have the damn books. and worse of all, there was a boy who was crying for his father and i had to chase him and drag him back into the class. (he aint a small skinny kid btw) i spent half the period outside persuading him to stop crying and whinging for his father. i was ready to punch the father man, for promising the kid he was going to be there and then not showing up.
the only reason why i want to go to school tomorrow is cos i see my fav p1 class tomorrow. other than that, tomorrow really sucks. for one, i'll be in sch for 11hrs, packed with only about 2hrs worth of breaks. secondly, and more importantly, my voice is practically non-existant. and as bad as it is having a class full of misbehaving kids, it's worse when you dont have your voice to attempt to keep them in order. and even if i get them in order, i can't exactly teach without a voice.
down with 9year old boys!
