*WRONG PROFESSION?* March 31, 2006
Let me officially announce dat I simply detest my p5s. I cant stand dem. Dey will manage to bring my day down and too bad, my day starts wif dem. Sheeesshhh!! You muz be wondering if da cikgu is da one wif da problem and making it sound like dey are terrible kids. Nope, dey are not terrible kids, dey are terrible, terrible kids! Many times, after teaching dem, I question myself as an educator. Whether I am da one who is a failure, and haloo Im not even yet an official cikgu, Im juz a trainee teacher! And its always da smarty pants who haf such smart-ass mouths, dat make me wanna gif dem one tight slap. Kids nowadays, so damn rude. Makes you tink whether dese kids haf parents to teach dem manners or whether dey were raised by hyenas! Heaven forbids my own kids turn out dat way. Onli den can I gif dem one tight slap.
I have always said dis, and I’ll say it many, many times again…Im more comfortable working wif young, small, lower primary and below kids. Any further den p3, OMG, I juz cant stand dem! Dey irritate da hell out of me! Imagine wen my future children grow up, dats gonna be a problem.
Wat happened today made me tink again about my future. Do I reali wan to teach dese grownup kids like foreva of my life and let dem be da cause of my earli death or pursue my real interest of teaching much more younger kids? Should I haf taken up dat offer to get my Diploma in Earli Childhood 4 years ago instead of entering NIE? Should I quit after serving my 5 years bond wif MOE and den pursue dat Diploma? Should I gif up my dream of entering UM wif da Geng coz wats da point wen dats not where my real interest lies?
See how serious it is?! It has always been my dearest dream to get dat degree from UM eva since I entered NIE but now it doesnt sound dat appealing no more coz getting a degree dere juz means a lifetime to bond to MOE and a lifetime of misery teaching dose brats!
Mayb after dis whining, a bag full of US dollars drops from heavens onto my chubby lap. Mayb den I can pay my bond to NIE. Mayb den I can open my own kindergarten and live happily after. Mayb, mayb…
My p2 kids, I simply adore dem, altho dey take up so much of my energy of having to explain every single ting and despite dem not being able to stop interrupting and fidgeting wen Im talking, I still heart dem. On moz Fridays, I’ll tend to forget dat class finishes at 3.25pm instead of 2.55pm. So today, at 2.55pm, I’ve alreadi sent dose little ones to queue for their next class. Fortunately, da CT alerted me and I shooed dose kids back into da classroom. Cant possibly ask dem to do any writing now, so I told dem da story of ‘The Boy Who Cried Wolf’ but Malay version lah. Altho moz of dem haf alreadi heard da stori and continously informed me about dat fact, surprisingly moz of dem paid full attention to me. Altho I nearly turned hoarse trying to tell da story loudly, I was hepi. Dey neva fail to bring a smile to my face wen I sent dem off to their next class, den som of dem would salam and kiss my hand and I’ll say bye, bye to each and everione of dem. I do dat bye, bye part to my p5 kids, dey neva layan me! Tak layan sudah! Gue enggak heran!
Do I sound bias? But Im feeling miserable you know….dey make me feel miserable.
