ok, i'm darn bored!

let's see how i spent my sunday...

i woke up for my morning prayers, watched channel 80 which showed a biography of jack nicholson (gosh! i didn't know he was an acclaimed actor!) for the next 3 hours or so, slept till 3:20pm, bathed, prayed, went online to blog surf, slept (AGAIN!!) till maghrib, prayed, ate, watched tv and now ( Read more... )

well, my teaching practice officially ended on 11 May 2007. my scm has already announced to us how we did and i'm so thankful to Allah that i've passed it. alhamdulillah. though she refused to reveal our exact grades to us, it's suffice to know that i've passed my teaching practice. now, i only pray that i've cleared all the modules back on campus ( Read more... )

i received my permanent posting yesterday. well, as i'd guessed, i won't be posted back to my current school.

now, i'm largely okay with that however i am going to miss this school. particularly, i'm going to miss ALL my students...especially my sec 1s!

i've enjoyed almost all the lessons with my sec 1s. they're responsive in class and i love it when ( Read more... )

urgh! my left eye has been twitching for the past few hours. it's HIGHLY irritating!! i keep on putting my forefinger to the tips of my eye in the bid to control the twitching. obviously, it's a tiring job. imagine doing that for a few minutes. it's TORTURE i tell you. heck, it's akin to being punished by my ex-primary school teacher who once asked ( Read more... )

i've spent the past 3.5hrs grading and keying in the marks for approximately 200 scripts (each class consists of 38-40 students).

and i'm wide awake. it's 1am by the way.

oh, did i mention that tomorrow is a working day and i've to be up by 5:20am?

BAH!

despite all the unhappy blog entries that i've devoted to my 3NA EL class, i do admit that i'm pretty grateful to Allah for giving me this class. this is because i've gained a lot of learning points just by teaching them.

for one, i learned that it is important that i constantly repeat myself as well as my instructions whenever i teach a class like ( Read more... )

i'm so glad the week's coming to an end. for the past two days, i've been dragging myself to school despite still being unwell. for the uninformed, i was down with a sore throat last friday (yeah! immediately after the dinner at swenson's! hmph!) which developed into a cough on saturday and by sunday, my whole chest was filled with phlegm. heck, i ( Read more... )

for the past few days, i've been pondering over the kind of lesson i want to conduct for my sec 3NA during my formal observation with my see-tee and sup next week (and which i hope would be on a Tuesday at that!). do i want them to do a group activity? or perhaps, do i want them to do a pair work activity? hmmm... maybe an individual activity could ( Read more... )
