126. teacher-like

in the class..

*good morning, teacher*
*good morning, class*
*please sit down*
*thank you, teacher*
*you are welcome*

outside..

*compliments*
*thank you*
*welcome*

so teacher like but still loving every second of it..
dear you, thank you..

125. my joy and hope..

best present ever..
to be able to experience the joy
and happiness of His blessings..

yesterday...
it was just like any ordinary day..
but with something to look forward to..
going to school only to think about going home again..
the peace and joy of that..

butterflies in the tummy..
but trying to act cool about it all..
the feeling of being a little girl all over again..
to jump with joy without showing it in public..

all my favourites in one moment..
my sport, my player..
all smiles..
me being a fan!!

things turn out better than what i had imagined..
can only be thankful for He allows it all..
opportunities that started with a lie though..
sorry..

124. just me being cheesy..


after so many months
of missed opportunities..
today is the day..
a joyful and fruitful day..
only to me of course..

the lowness...
the tallness..
the smile..
awwwww......

the sound in my ear..
the sweetness in my eyes..
everything seemed perfect..
even the sniffing..

get well soon, dear you...
we shall meet again some day..

oh my..i just feel so cheesy right now..
this is the once in a blue moon type of post..

123. being a practicum teacher

it's been a while since i last wrote here..
been busy with lesson planning,
students,
school activities,
observations, 
and more lesson planning..

there's the highs and lows of being a practicum teacher..
students can be angels on one day..
and the next you feel like strangling them..
relationships and trust is now established in the classroom..

i love entering their classes and to meet my kids..
but i really dread the part where lesson planning is involved..
it is a joy when you find out more about your students..
their experience, their likes and dislikes..
and i think it is an accomplishment when students readily open up to me..
to know that they see me as teacher they can trust..

5 down, 7 weeks more to go..
it is a joy that practicum is going to end then..
but it would be sad to leave my kids
since they are my first batch of students..
but for now..
more observations..
more lesson planning..




on a side note:

my favourite student left the school to be in a boarding school..he cycled all the way from his house early in the morning just to inform the both of us that today is his last day.. i was so touched by his effort..he could have just left the school without saying anything..and it was very sudden..but he did what he did..it was a brief goodbye thinking that i would meet him later on in the day..but sadly, i never got to see him again..cause he went back right after meeting us..he did not even enter the class though he came to school in the morning..at 13, he is so sure of what he wants in life..never have i met a 13 year old who is so confident and focussed in life..i wish you all the best, my boy..we will meet again one day..
