almost the end

salam...
Tmrw will be my final day with these kids, and to step foot in the school, teaching, attending assemblies, going for relief classes etc.... yea, i know it sounds like i'm already missing them..indeed, i am! isk isk.. they are rascals but they are definitely my angels :)

so...i asked the students to write an informal letter, but a goodbye letter to me, hehe (sambil mnyelam minum air).. today, I've read some of it, the other half, I'll have to wait after this friday, which is tmrw to be read. Why? because I gave them choices, whether they want me to read it after or before i leave the school. I'll post some of the interesting-to-share ones here later... (The 'after' envelope was thicker by the way)..

Hm, i know i should be happy.. no more stressful day, lesson planning till 3 in the morning, frequent visit from lecturer/teacher..but I can't help to feel sad. Suddenly today, a thought flitted through my mind. I can still remember how hard it was when I was learning Arabic, and how I struggle with the language. I replaced my situation with my students', in learning BI.. There and then, I wish I could have made things better for them.. Really hope that these students had acquired some knowledge from me, whether for education or real-life.


ohh malasnya nak smbung buat keja..
okay2..you do what you have to do..... till then

Kantoi @ Bilik Guru

alhamdulillah~ yesh, udah masuk minggu ke 10 praktkum... sabar dan trus bersabar.. ho, sabar dengan kekangan.. don't get me wrong, i love my students, and i'm grateful to teach in SMK Sri Permaisuri.. but then, the stresses and workloads are too much to bear.. sometimes i felt provoke beyond reason..

Today, the cooperating lecturer, Miss N, just pop-up and went into my class, after slashing my lesson plan here and there, and inserting some major addition to it. I'm thankful for the guidance, but.. I was left 5 mins to prepare the-new-needed-materials, aiyok... Miss N just smile and said, 'lets see if you can adapt'.. *smmiillee* tercabar sehh time tu.. so _>buat2 - ketar2 - bukak buku.. akhirnya, i managed, alhamdulillah.... hmm, yg agak hampeh nya...

**** Sebelum itu*****

Suddenly Miss N rushed out from bilik guru, it seemed like she's going back, without observing my last 2 periods of the day... (dah tadah tangan bersyukur dah masa tu)...
so, my colleague and I started having a short sharing session. She shared with me what happen in her class (biasa la tu), and I shared my feeling with her (once in a blue moon,heh)..my lines during that time were,
"hmm, she said that this is not a good lesson plan.. Just because i couldn't write good lesson objectives and the set induction, does it means that everything is not good? it brings me down, you know"... Then, *voila~* Miss N appeared at the door.. cis ciss, kantoi! aiyokkk, mna nak sorok muka.. tgh buat luahan perasaan, kantoi plk... harap2 nothing serious, i guess...

2 kali dah arini, tadi tgh wat gaya spastik, ada guru lelaki jenguk kt compartment ktrg.. cis cis ciss lagi skali.. moral of the story.. takyah lah luahkan perasaan kt kawasan bahaya, tmbah plk x penah2 sembang psl tu sblm ni, tiba2 je bercerita...
