Haiz. I'm tired tired tired. finally, there's no additional relief duty for me today. I had 11 periods ytd. Can u imagine? and an average of 8 periods from Mon to Wed. there's so much to be done. i still owe my students their compo which I'm clueless on how to go about marking them... i could only follow my guts feeling and hope tt my judgemental skill is sharp and helpful. By right, i can take my time to go about marking them since they only handed it up on Monday. however, by left, they are having their SA1 MT Paper 1 this coming wed. so? I gotta return them by this Monday. Oh my gosh! Anw, i admire my speed. I managed to mark 10 copies ytd within a short period of 2 hrs. haha.
stayed back to mark the P5s' workbook (which included comprehension in the current exercise), and haha, I'm so well trained tt i can mark them at a speed of 2.5mins/book. As for their ting xie, due to some being overly anxious, i was forced to mark their 1st and had to be very very very fast. so it was like VOOM! (abt a min). I think I'm seriously crazy.
Think I'm so rushed/stressed tt I'm falling ill. vomited my lunch out just now although i had taken it for abt 2.5 hrs.

OK, let's talk sth abt my mischievous kids. wed was a really really eventful day. picture this right now. U go into class and a period later, this girl come to you saying tt she's suffering from stomachache. So u gotta bring her to the General Office to call her parent. At the same time, there's this guy crying in class because his eye was poked by a ruler and it was all red and sore. so u gotta shout and make the 2 playful guys go out of the classroom to stand and wait while u bring the girl to the Office. Meanwhile to put a boy in charge of the class behaviour for the time being. Right after u came back from the office, u started lecturing the 2 boys and discovered tt another girl was also involved. so u called that girl too. While questioning them, someone came out and said 't'cher, so and so are fighting in the classroom!' u went in and u saw this guy (very introverted/soft-spoken/unexpected) using his fist to punch the shoulder of the other guy (rebellious, always getting into trouble with the other t'chers). U must be very surprised! U gotta immediately run over to stop them and instruct the guy to move away while holding on tightly to the other, trying ur best to calm him down. but the 1st case hasnt end and the girl hasnt gone home too. then came another girl saying tt she's not feeling well and wanna go home. despite me ignoring her and asking her to inform her t'cher since it was already time for the next lesson, she insisted to seek for my help. WOW. Head very BIG u know! oh, not forgetting tt u left work for the other students to do while waiting for you, and this insensitive students jus kept coming around u to ask 't'cher, how to write this, how to write that?'. Im gg crazy!
In the end: the 2 students was punished by being asked to write a reflection letter for me and an apology letter for the one they injured. The 2nd girl tt wanted to go home, I asked the t'cher next door for help to bring her to the office. as for the 'fighters', they had to follow me to another P2 class tt i was gg to relief. and there i go, counselling again. and after tt, it's contact time. so i didnt even get a rest. not even a min. oh, i have to make this comments: having KPO Students in ur class made everything worse (esp ur mood) as they will crowd around the door to see and u gotta raise ur voice, scream at them!

on thurs, i thought they learnt their lessons. unfortunately they didnt. and there comes this guy called Johnathan from another class. He came with a container filled with eraser dusts and threw it at my students. and my poor students had to clean up the floor. this evoked my students' anger and they started shouting "Johnathan! Johnathan!". And... the appearance of the next door teacher. she scolded them for being so disorder. i really had to thank her. so it was dead silence. according to my plan to bring them to the com lab to complete a survey (but wad for asking P2 to do surveys? i tink the sch is rather dumb, considering the fact that majority of the P2 will not be able to give genuine comments), i made them promise me tt they will maintain such silence even though they are in the com lab and they did. OKAY, i got to know tt my class kids cant get simple things done. (sux at filing, sux at maintaining silence, sux at doing surveys, sux at logging on, etc) ARGH! I had to lecture those kids fooling ard again. HAIZ. sian.
haha, but a happy thing to share. after the lesson with my P2, i went on to another P2 class to relief and sad to say, it was Johnathan's class. Sian.. but happiness in disguise, during tt 2 periods, my student drew me a card and in it read '你是一个好老师!', i was so happy and touched after reading tt. It felt as if all my efforts was worth it. :)) then another 3 pretty girls said tt i was pretty.. hahaha, 听了这番话后,我的心里比吃了蜜糖还甜!(my P5's 佳句)

today, as usual. i gotta shout shout shout, even made a guy an 'OUTSTANDING' students. He deserved it, seriously.

As for my P5s, they got all excited over my name, trying to figure my chinese characters, esp . These jokers even came up with 死,湿,尸,屎. aiyoyo! cannot stand them, i couldnt stop laughing. and those ppl were being jerked at by the rest.
so here's my name: 王言寺女亭! and i told them tt im a japanese. hahahhaha.. there's this girl tt said: 'so wasted, the last word shld be 神 instead, then it will sound better!' hahahaha. ytd, they discovered my age through my NRIC no. and were super shouted and excited. So cute of them. :))

ok, tink i better stop complaining, guess all ur eyes are tired. go take a rest. Im so sorry! Paiseh Paiseh! hehe...
