Missing......

JOANI & ADDIE!

My crazy 2 NIE pals are lost in school. Haven't met them since I don't know when!!!!
Felt it even more so today when I had a long break with most of my classmates away as they had finished for the day (except for us EL teachers!). Suddenly, I remembered how we would call each other and shout over the phone asking each other our whereabouts and to meet for lunch. I can almost hear Addie's voice and our conversations in my head! :) There was a bazaar at NIE and again I can see Joani and Addie scouring for weird dresses/accessories/socks etc, with Addie taking 1-2hrs deciding on just 1 piece of clothing!

I remembered alot of things we did together in just that 1 hr of sitting in the canteen and watching the world go by.

I expected this to happen i.e. it will get harder to meet up as this is the season to be busy (esp in this school term). But just there and then, I missed those 2 weirdos.

By the way, I am NOT being emo!

ACTION 100%

I finally can take a breather and bloggie! I just can't believe that my 2 weeks of the 10weeks practicum have just passed! But of course, its just ACTION this entire week since I started teaching. My gosh....if anyone desires for time to pass quickly JOIN TEACHING! Having not taught for the last 1.5years, getting back to the routine sure took some adjustment. Physically, I crashed by 10pm every night. Last night, 8.45pm! Record set. Just last week I was thinking its ultra boring to just shadow my CTs and not teach....I basically didn't know what I was asking for then. Mornings start with the mad rush of preparing for PE lessons and its just been taxing on my brain! After PE, I feel as though I've ran a marathon. I just slump on my chair and let the cool air from the air-con bring me back to life. When school ends, I just have little energy left to do my own trainings! OH ...btw I cycle to and fro school so....its zero level at the end of the day. Joani said this to me befor...

Breather

Back from a Sec 3 level camp in JB, Tanjung Piai. Thought I could have the week's off to clear my brain's cache and prepare my lesson plans but alas...I'm down for ODAC camp and sec 4s' oral exam mock practice! When can I have my breather???? Sometimes I wonder whether returning to a familiar place is good for me after all. I'm like on the 'Wanted' list for this committee, that committee, this event, that event etc. Not that I'm popular or high-in-demand, its just that I'm nicely available. I'm not usually mindful of taking on responsibilities. Its just that during these 10 weeks, I reckon is a crucial component of my NIE understudy and I am not wanting to settle for something less in my planning (although i really hate lesson plannings!). But I'm so stretched! I feel like screaming: " GIVE ME MY SPACE!" To say the least, I'm feeling stressed. Most unfortunately, I'm not given the option to say 'No'. Not until I get ...

Divine Connection

Buzz phrase between Ana and me recently. One by one, our peers are walking down the aisle and we both look at each other and we say "How ah??" Frankly, as much as I hate to admit it, I do fear being left on the shelf! Well not that I'm undesirable, but at times I just stop hoping. I know i know...words have power and I should not make negative confessions. I should keep praying and commiting my inner most desires to the One who knows best. Yet I'm only human. And a woman for that matter. Today we met again and we both exclaimed, "Our time not here yet!". Pastor walked in, smiling as usual. "DIVINE CONNECTION. Its not a right. Its a desire" (Pastor, 2009). We'll get there somehow. Meanwhile, continue to wait for this DIVINE CONNECTION.
