still the need to keep a record of the daily life of a teaching intern. so.
thursday.
went fo art and music classes.
its getting kinda boring sitting at the back of the class. its like im itching to teach but somehow every time i am almost ready to ask my supervisor about it i think of all the things that can go wrong and i dont. oh well. there are 5 more weeks anyway ill get my chance =)
the little sec ones in music class were so cute. there was this caucasian boy (not cute) and a group of boys arguing so i asked them to keep quiet. one of them went, "but maam, he is talking bad about singapore!" so the little singaporean boys were defending singapore! i was so proud of them hahaha seems like our NE lessons worked afterall. but i still asked them to keep quiet and discuss it after class.
and there was this boy who kept turning around and staring at me and i stared back. then he went "what!!" in his super cute havent been broken voice. then i realised he was one of my favourite kids from nurture programme! such a coincidence. i assure you its impossible for teachers not to have favourites =)
went for art club after that. the boys found this box of face paint and started painting themselves. you should see how guys paint each other if you are smart enough you will never EVER offer to let your face be painted by a GUY. halfway through,
"maam, we painted his teeth. How?"
"its okay never mind."
they started patting the victim on the back, smiling in this creepy way, wagging their eyebrows and assuring him that he wasnt going to die.
childish little boys. =)
friday.
sat in for math today.
the teacher mr ng is one of the coolest teachers ever. he played whacko for a whole period and the sec 5s love him. he went,
"do you all want to join us for whacko?"
friend beside me exclaims, "yes yes yes i love whacko!!" and drags me along.
i looked at her in disbelief (REALLY). i mean, i dont think i would find joy playing whacko with a group of 16-17 year old guys (taller, bulkier and bigger sized than us) whose names i didnt know. and you should see the way they whack each other. no mercy =) but it was damn fun! although all i remembered was Joshua, Joseph, Joel and Gabriel but i survived with four names hahaha. it was the most fun game of whacko i ever played actually. guys are so fun to be around.
back to mr ng who really rocks!! he started his lesson after that. he can smile, joke laugh with the class (other teachers tell us not to) and they still respect him and listen to him. I need to learn how to rock like him.
during art, this boy in class kept sneezing. there was mucus flying every where (literally!). damn gross. all of his classmates were very grossed out as well haha.
went to watch the kiwi cup after that. saints vs raffles. saints won! haha. although i realised that rugby issnt exactly the type of sport i fancy watching (maybe i like sports better when i am on the field not on the stands) i like watching fast paced, adrenaline rushing sports, like floorball, canoeing, track, canoe polo those type. rugby is just like "tau pok" over and over again hahaha. and i met fiona from nurture too. ive met so many people from nurture in the past 2 weeks. kennard, then satish, then fiona. maybe its a sign that i should volunteer more at nurture lol.
oh and i realised i cant decide whether to call them boys or guys. boys is weird. guys is weird too.
anyway dinner with my beloved floorballers after that!! at justacia free flow of ice cream and drinks haha. its always so fun to be with them. all of us are working! and its nice to hear random stories about their workplaces. anyway we celebrated cat, bx, reethie and my birthday. gonna do this every month! im looking forward to seeing them already. =)
today is just extremely boring. other than the fact that shufang who was supposed to be the one getting stuff while we shopped didnt while i who am supposedly very extremely broke did. darn.
