its the last 2 days.
i'm looking forward to the end of the practicum, but at the same time, i dun really want to leave the sch.
i've learnt a lot from M&M, n i really appreciate wad they have done to teach me. i gained a lot of experience from them, n a lot of tips.
i would miss the interaction with M&M, n the rest of the staffroom. i've enjoyed myself a lot.
even though it was tiring, i still want to stay on.

i had a nightmare tt i couldn't shake off..
n somehow, my confidence abt my own choice was shaken..
at the very least, i have gotten over 4 observations. i just have one more to look forward to now.
tmr is racial harmony day.
i'm still thinking whether to wear my baju kurong..
n as my laogong said, "the iron opens tmr"..
i'm dying to shop..

its been a while since i've last updated my blog.
2 wks into my teaching practice 1, n i'm pretty much enjoying myself.
not tt there's no work, mind u, but i realise tt i can explore different ways of teaching since there're not much discipline probs to deal with in class.
stress level for teachers is pretty high though. the admin work is hell of a lot, markings have to be done right after exams have ended, n common tests are coming, so paper setting has to be done.
i'm not the one marking the midyr exams for the sec4s, but i have to help M1 set the sbq for common test.
M1&M2 have helped me along the way, n M1 has esp made me realise tt having a sense of humour is an impt skill in life. if i were a student in his class, i would be laughing most of the time in class.
however, i'm not the kind where humour comes daily. i'm not sure whether cold jokes will help. i just have to try my best to lighten up in class as well, n not become nervous when M1 or M2 are in class.
there's work to be done, so i guess i have to stop here.
its really not an easy job, but i hope i can get the hang of it soon.
if not, i'll really burn out very fast.
