May 8, 2007 by babysteph
gonna write dis post in english, so that all my frens, including non-nie frens can read it. just got my school posting dis evening, and i’m gg to Bendemeer Primary School.
my teaching career will start on the 21st dis mth, and i wonder hwz the school like..the staff, the students, my CL department, etc, etc…i only noe itz a neighbourhood school, quite near my house (haha…means i can afford to catch a little more sleep in the mornings). at present, i noe nothing about the school, just hope it’ll suit my style! so far, haven’t heard anyone gg to the same sch as me…i’ll feel lonely if i’m the only new teacher posted there…=(
haiz…abit uncertain abt my own future…i only noe i wish i could continue studying, continue learning wat i’d love to learn! wonder, 2mths down the road, will i b wrking happily or slogging…hw long will i stay in teaching… will i have a life…will i move on to teach in the pte sector…will i ever get a chance to do my masters…will i have time to read the books i wanna read apart fr teaching…
currently no answers to all of the above questions. still in the midst of those meaningless MOE enrichment programmes, but they r not quite "enriching", prefer spending my time in the library chatting or reading stuffs i like. itz reli time-wasting & non-productive sitting in the LT, and most of the time let the lousy speakers bore me to almost falling asleep. and frens who r wondering "since it’s so boring, why don’t u just skip it?", well, not that i haven’t thought of that, but i’m paid by MOE (finally resume pay dis mth, aft 2yrs of non-pay study leave! yippie! looking fwd to the 12th of every mth, i guess datz the only motivation for wrking) for these not-so-enriching enrichment courses dis 2wks.
and most imptly, dis 2wks shall b the last chance for us (classmates & schmates) to enjoy one another’s company…sobz sobz…for the past 4yrs, most of the time, we’ll b rushing for lessons, rushing to lunch, rushing to go hme, discussing grp wrk, but diz few days, we all finally get a chance to have all the time we want, sit down & talk wateva we want, itz reli enjoyment! bliss! did u all observe, even our speed of walking is slower than usual, hahha! reli enjoy days like dis, no stress, don have to tink of hmewrk, assignments, projects..simply enjoying life — the last bit of blissful life b4 slogging as teachers!
DO take care, my dear frens. i wish all of us survive steadily & happily out there. 大家要尽可能保持联络!哪位有心人可定期主办聚会,让大家互相诉苦、互相勉励!有blog的,记得继续常常写blog,让大家互相了解彼此的近况哦。我会想念大家的!
