Ha. Mindless rants

I'm a nerd.

Just finished reading a short story Tanjong Rhu which is to be taught next week. 

Certain things I noticed, such as this main character is a Chinese, Mr Li. But at one point, his wife calls him Edward. I immediately got teleported back to lit classes back in uni. We would have caught that instantly and started a discussion. Oh how I miss those times. Here, I can already shout hallelujah if my students even pay attention to my teaching. Ahh. Life.

The invincible Jay Chou

So true. As the 6th of August becomes nearer and nearer. And I don't even use the phrase just around the corner anymore. I am so tired almost every day, working my ass off, no doubt I have some moments where I just laze and do nothing, but it just isn't the same anymore. 

Being a student, it was quite hard for me to afford everything I wished to have, concert tickets precisely. Now that I'm working, I could pay without feeling as guilty as I would have felt as a student with no income, but I have no time. NO TIME. Doesn't reality just suck?  :/ I can't even go for my idol's concert because of my job. 

Guess I'll have to refrain from going onto any social media from 6/8 to at least 9/8 to avoid seeing all the photos and videos and long captions and what not that'll make me go green with envy. 

Guess I'll play his songs aloud using the speakers and annoy the hell out of my housemates and neighbours. Hahaha

Didn't think I took this, I didn't sit so far away, and definitely not this direction.

And I've even learned a few of his new songs. 

It's okay. There'll always be a next time. This I believe wholeheartedly. 

 

Busy

Hear that a lot. Everyone is busy.

Due dates of files after files

Practices, meetings, observations, big event coming up..

People start falling sick, because of the weather, the workload and the stress. I no longer have time for books, I get too tired, I even fell sick. 

Students still remain demotivated. How will they ever be ready for the PT3 and SPM next year, I've been giving my best, pouring almost all my heart and energy trying to help them, but you can only help those who want to be helped. So true.

On something that got through my mundane lamenting about the current life..

I realized how silly and immature I must have seemed in front of elder or more experienced people when I talk about my worries.

Whatsapped with one of the students who went to the vocational college I mentioned, he said they were suffering. Being treated like idiots by the people there, he was full of anger, hating the teacher, whom according to him, cheated them to go there. 

I thought it must be the orientation, tried to talk him out of his anger and frustration, but in vain. And I heard them saying 13 out of 20 who went are coming back. How silly to have missed out the chance just because they're too immature to withstand the beginning. 

Anyway I'll still welcome them back because I'm awesome and dedicated like that. 

Hahaha. No, actually just because there's nothing I can do about it anyway. I have to accept them again. Lol.

Student said this is also one of their fellow classmates. I said : berapa umur sudah masih macam budak.

If only he knew about Oinky. Hahaha

 

Stupid

So fast, my holiday is going to end. My life currently is living and impatiently waiting for the next school holiday. Sounds pretty sad hahaha. 

So yea, nuff said. Should've just finished everything while I was in school. 

Nothing much, just a short update. How's your holiday going? 

I miss traveling. A lot. T.T
