You know, even though school ended late for me today, I felt quite satisfied with how the day had went by. It all happened in the morning when the form teachers had to hold teacher-student interview to better understand and know each student in their class. So my other form teacher was doing it in class, and I chose to do it out of class, on tables and chairs further away from the classrooms and I had a view of the foyer. I only managed to interview 2 students today. Why? One student suddenly kept very quiet when I asked how the family was and broke down. There I was, thrown into shock because I suppose I had taken for granted many people were like us having a normal life and shitty things occasionally thrown their way but here was a girl who was crying because she had a problem. A problem at home. I had thought it was just gonna be another normal routine chat with the students, and there I was, hands wrapped round my coffee mug. Yes, I've become one of the working drones: Start the day with coffee. The problem was she found it hard to cope due to parents divorcing. Whew... I suppose it was really hard to respond because I've been off social work for too long and I've forgotten all the things I should have said or done. Though I was of a bit of help to her, I could tell. So yes, that encounter really made me feel I am right to think that teaching holds what I might like to do and believe in. It's fulfilling in its own ways. And it can happen in small ways too. Like when I had a lesson today that went really well, and I could feel the class enjoyed it too. We had a mini debate session. Fruitful and encouraging.
Yes darling, yes... so do I. I wish I could keep Valentine too. Sigh, enough said on this topic I guess for I know as the days pass, I shall surely talk about this again. Was just playing with her just now... She's healthy enough to be able to run around and do small jumps and climbs =)
Mother of two huh lol..... =P
Sigh thesis is hard work huh... =) I don't think I'll be up to it but heck soemtimes, I do wish so much I could have done it. Yes, you might laugh... but really, while it may not be fun or easy to cope with, it's something that's gonna be satisfying.
Flippy!!! Miss you love you~~ hehee~~ Hope you get well soon silly darling~~ And if you're free to try a cute little game, go to this link yeah =) You might like it, its cute~
