This week is the last week I'm having classes with my senior students.
Today, one of the noisiest class became so silent when I say "Ok. Remember this as this will be the last time I'm reminding you..... ." Everyone suddenly kept quiet coz they know I will never again nag them or torture them with my homework. It's now all independent and solely learning by themselves.
Yes... I'll be around until the exam. But no longer will enter their class.
Good luck for the A-level exam to the ALM9 and ALUK6 batch! God speed....

Hooray to a Hectic Day ahead!!
I hope that what I saw in the staff portal is true... please let it be true... please.... don't revert it to something else..
And today, quite chaotic... but I still manage to blog a bit.. 1 hour gap right now...
My question is why is it students nowadays are so so so..... DEMANDING??!!!
I told you that I will not be able to attend to you untill 3... You want my lunch hour?? Fine.... So I rescheduled the class from 2-4 to 1-3...Then comes along this student that I helped with her Bio project... She text me... I couldn't reply coz I know I was busy... She called... I told her that I am available only after 3... and tomorrow I'm available.. but no.......
she still want to come at 3... what a hectic day ahead... that's only work... my 'responsibility-as-a-mother' duty to supply breast milk is another one... I dunno when I can have time to do that today....

What ever lah!
This week for me is the one of the most mental-torturous, exhausting, controversial week..
Yesterday, a student threw his pen only because I didn't want to give the answers to the exercises which we will discuss in our next lesson. I told them in the real exam you don't have the answers as a guide, so it's a good practice from now on to do just that.... he was so 'kurang ajar' where he did his very unhappy face and he threw his pen in front of me!!! I just smiled... coz I didn't know how to react to such behaviour as this is the first for me!
Never in my entire teaching years I encountered such student. What is becoming of our next generation? That was what I was thinking right after that class ended. I don't care how clever or genius you are, if you do not know how to RESPECT other PEOPLE, especially a person that gives you her heart and sole to educate you... fine... just go to hell!! It's frustrating to see students like that... but, he is the only one like that... I think. I felt that these students knows they are selected students, which is so called 'genius', they forget that their 'genius' can only get them to one level... the rest is still your interpersonal skills... I forgive him. I think he is immature. Still in my heart I pray that my children would never act like that.
My exhaustion continues as I had to prepare exam questions, timetables, etc... plus both my children is not well. So, I'm tired at the office and at home as well....
My frustration biggest one is... I received a letter which revised my salary. Which is good... but how come a good thing bring so much frustration?? Only I know for sure... what is written is not reflecting my expectation. However, Allah is always blessing me with his grace... Insyaallah.. I'll survive this week..
