I figured... I really should write something so that you get to read it tomorrow if you're online. =) And it has been a while since I wrote something so *krack krack knuckles* here goes:
Lest less discerning readers let their imagination run wild on the possibly misleading title, no, this is not some raunchy dirty tale of some appetizing affair. The main topic today is... Sports Day. O glorious Day it is. How the weather favors us, complete with hot baking sun, winds, clouds and torrential rains. Ah, a typical Singapore Day it has been.
A certain cute endearing penguin drove me to the destination and I must give her the due credits and thanks I felt. May I once again remind readers that she, happens to rank Number One on my Pooh Idol list. Thank you for the stuff you do for me darling~~ * paws affectionately*
The Sports Day for me consisted mainly of walking around *ie patrolling the grounds* and drinking water and watching a bit of the events. The terror kids in the T class were all cheery and welcoming to me when they saw me. Some of the more problematic ones were happily surrounding me chatting noisily. They were mainly the Malay boys and they were all of the "same group". While talking to them, my eyes caught sight of a bunch of teachers looking at me, and leading the charge, with fingers happily gossipy pointing my way was Justin. Hmm... Bad omen. They beckoned me but I didn't go over as I was still talking to my students. When I went over after, a few of the more gossipy teachers were laughing and Justin proceeded to summarize loudly for me just what their interesting topic was all about. The T class form teacher was gonna quit the profession and has been mysteriously absent for the past 2 weeks so that group were playing principal and felt that since the kids got along with me, I should be recommended to be their form teacher. I shook my head furiously and kept saying no and while laughing, walked off. Snakes, I tell you, all snakes. Sigh.... better walk away from office politics. I hate those... detest them more than problematic students anyday. Those are about the ugliest faces you can see of teachers. Scary.
But what Justin said was right. I do seem to be dwelling too much on discipline stuff, what with patrolling the grounds, reigning in (or attempting to) students giving trouble. He genuinely asked if I was doing that to score with the supervisors. Sigh... I easily said no to that but I was really stumped when I realised myself I do do things quite out of required duties. Look at me sweets, I'm deviant, I don't take discipline seriously. What the hell is going on? I know a little of what I might be feeling, I know that basically I just wanna reach out to the kids, its really not quite what they're wearing etc that I'm oh so concerned about upholding.
Well... I digress.... It was a wet affair mainly because it began to pour towards the end. Big mad rain! Hope you didn't catch it when you went school.
That's about it for Sports Day... Oh my my.... how forgetful I grow... Have I introduced to the readers our new happy friend who will stay for about a few hundred daily episodes in our life? May I present to you... Sudoku. Cool, clean, fun, puzzling. It's well... basically a puzzle. Oh bother, if any readers do not know what it is, google it. But I do recommended you get a book and try it. As Flips and I found out, it can be quite engaging and fun, it's fun to be doing it with your loved ones too. It can, of course, at times get a little frustrating. =) OOOoooh... 124 am... time for bed! Smell you tomorrow! Have to go for bed now, before the HDB rockets launch without me~ Taa~~~~
