I've been becoming addicted to buying things off ebay lately. Brought a couple of blouses, although one did have a button missing I was surprised how well it fit. Even though it was a bit short. Ordered some hair accessories since my hair is a lot longer now. I've been growing it for over 4 years now although there is a long way to go before it gets to the length I want.
Took Friday off as I was feeling sick. I think it was due to food poisoning as I had sharp pains in the stomach. But I think I needed the Friday off to recoup and de-stress. Work has been fine, although there is one particular woman at work who I just can't stand. For example, we have international students and she will go around telling us (as in ESL teachers) how they need special consideration because they are ESL. Uh... all the students in our classes would have the same special considerations. Even though the kids may not be international, they are ESL. The other day I took a phone off a student as he had it on just as we were to start an exam. The school policy is that if a student is caught with the phone, we have to take it away and give it to the DP. So I did that and explained to him I have given it to the DP. Anyway, this kid than goes tells this teacher how I took his phone and demands for it back. She then calls me up and says I need to explain slowly to him why I took his phone etc. I told her, well, it was hard when he took off after the exam etc. But the way she spoke to me was so condescending. The funny part is that if someone spoke to her in the same manner she spoke to me. She would seriously be a bitch about it and tell the person off. She doesn't like it when people talk to her that way, yet she is happy to talk to others the same way. To rub salt into my wound she then sends a school email saying how xxx is still new and if we take their phone off them we have to do this and this. Gah! Annoying woman! The thing is, this student is not new! He has been at the school for two terms now and knows the school rules. He is just playing her.
Anyway, a friend of mine told me not to stress over it as it's not worth it. She is right in not putting my energy towards stupid people like that. But it makes me so mad when this woman thinks she knows better than me. She resents the fact that I was given permanency and she wasn't. Although she was offered it three times and knocked it back as she decided to move inter-state. But now having moved back she is making my life hell. I wished she stayed inter-state. I also think she is rather racists too. She said one of the reasons why she moved back is because she found the city too "multicultural". She even said there were too many "Indian" people around... but the thing is... she is Indian herself! One day a bunch of us were talking about places we shop at and there is one down the road where I normally go to. Her remark was, "Oh, I'm too scared to shop there. There are too many Asian people." Like what? I seriously just wanted to tell her to shut up. Makes me so mad... oh right. I wasn't suppose to get angry over stupid things she says. I seriously don't like her, although everyone seems to as she never shows her true colours to them. But oh how I have seen her true face. To the point that she has bullied me and made me almost cry. At least we are no longer in the same staff room, but it doesn't stop her barging into my room without even knocking because she is now in charge of the ISP.
Meanwhile I had a student chuck a tantrum by throwing a chair and then his books to the ground. Had to have him removed, but so did not need that at the start of the exam block. Another student has gone MIA because she has found the assignment too hard. But instead of asking me for help she has run off to complain about me and the assessment being to hard to her guardians. Who then make a complaint about me not helping her. Like, are you serious? I'm surprised I don't have a stomach ulcer by now.
One week left, one week left.... so need a break!
One more week to go, although still heaps to so! ^^
