Something Different

Monday, March 31, 2008

Finally done applying for SMU, NTU and NUS. . That's all the university that i can apply i supposed. . aside that uniSIM of course. .

I invested $15+$10+$10. . hopefully i can get something out of it. . i need a switch of course. .
if. . i mean touch wood, that it happens that i don't get a single choice out of all these, then i will have to curse my luck and suck my thumb to accept this architecture course that i have been given. .
It's still quite possibly this could happen. . given now the situation, the most optimistic one that i can think of is that SMU offer me its economics course. . If that don't even happen, the worst is most likely inevitable. .
If NUS and NTU offer me, i don't even wish for a direct offer, i will be happy enough if they give me an interview, then it will most ideal. . or i should call it, a 'bonus'. .
I will call it a 'miracle' if NTU offer me it's accountancy, or Maths and Econs course. .
Just wait and see. . .

Alright. . Monday. . The start of the third week of my 'career' in bowen. . Mondays always look so blue to me. . I have lessons until 3pm and cover relief duties here and there. . It was rather hectic until 2.30pm. . looks to gonna be worse but the last class which i was supposed to cover a remedial class for 5A2 didnt turn up. . probably thinking that it has been called off since mrs sundram's not around. . gave me an early 30 minutes dismissal. . well, it don't make too much of a difference eventually, i still stayed back to do some work and left around 3.15pm. .
Well. . i have still yet to discover if i can be a teacher. . someone like me, crude looking, crude language, crude personality. . your impression of a teacher always almost the opposite. .
I can be frank to tell that till now i still haven't truly execute the job of a teacher. . I can afford to make friends with the pupils, talk to them like a pal because im not exactly a teacher. . I like it this way because it's good feeling to be able to mix with students and revive some of the good old school days. . I preferred to see myself as their senior, a mentor. . Im just like 5 years older than them. .
There's a different between azhar and me. . Azhar always been a discipline person, a nice boy in school. . If you know me you know im nothing of that sort. . It directly affects how you treat your student. . pupil like me seldom become educators, pupil like him are born educator. .
He go for discipline, more command and control. . for my case, discipline leave it to discipline teachers, just ensure they don't get overboard and control wise, i don't seek to be an authoritarian. .
It may sounds in a way that im not serious or dedicated to my job. . but i know myself best if i am. .
One more thing to add. . that azhar is performing the duty of a teacher, im not. . so the key thing is that till now, i don't need to instil an air of authority in front of the student. .
Perhaps when i decided to be a teacher in future, i will come back to bowen, and then i will start to bear a resemblance of azhar's style. . discipline and obedience from the pupils. . only then can results be produced. . for this point of them, i will have to pray hard that the students do produce some results under my relaxed guidance. .
