The
surprise birthday party for me organised by smoot / tanneh was a total and
very happy surprise (: I am truly blessed, to have such fine friends.. More on that when I'm feeling upbeat. As of now, I'm quite tired out, cos today was a momentous day...
I taught my first geog class, ever.One of the geog teachers took MC for a week, so I had to take over all her classes
just like that. I was putting up a brave front, but that 3-day NIE programme don't prepare you to face a noisy class of sec2s who cheer at the sight of you, only cos they're so happy you're the
Relief Teacher a.k.a. We Can Slack. They even treated me like an exotic animal from mandai.
"
Teacher, how old are you??"
"
Teacher you are very fair. Compare with me! (sticks hand out)"
"
Teacher you are very cute" [Because I was walking in circles, because I am noob.. What am I supposed to say to that. Thank you very much,
so are you!]
Naturally my true calling shone through, and I proceeded to tell them all I knew about Settlements, enough to save my soul. Had to scream it out, cos most of them at the back row didn't think it was a very interesting lesson.
Characteristics of Settlements.
But tomorrow will be exciting cos tonight I'm going to start mugging my geog again so I Will Be Prepared to give trivia and geog
Did-you-knows.. And I will bring my red pens to fill my table (: (: I have a teacher's table! I am so grown up.
Oh and apparently, my sis is having a
great time suanning RJ, in ACJC. I think it's part of their Mission / Vision / Motto or whatever. Haha naturally we'll let them have their fun, but everyone knows who the real winners are.
:D
