my first teachers' day.. as a teacher

Realised that i have some reflections to do after realising that a lot of my sec ones don't like me... ha... through an unethical way really ... cos i read their english assignments when their english teacher, shan asked me to... . terms that they used to describe me- naggy (always scolding and demanding) , nerdy (my glasses), unreasonable (taking away their recess), boring (using outdated photos??? never tell jokes), lame (since i never tell jokes, i don't know how lame i can go). ha.. what a way to discover it on this day rite...can be hurting really...

on a positive note, i had a nice letter from a gal who told me how much she enjoyed my lesson and hope i can be her geo teacher while she is in school. it lifted my day abit when i realised one of my boys left a card in my locker to tell me how he thinks i'm a good teacher despite his friends not liking me, like the nick i gave him (parrot 38).

well...comments... they can made ur day or crush ur days at time....

anyway, glad that it's sept holiday...time to rest a bit, plan a bit, indulge a bit...

it's was a nite of glitters and fun on aug 30 when we had our final celebration to the sch 20th anniversary by having a gala dinner @ swissotel merchant court. pleasure surprise when i saw my ex-boss in the crowd. Guess she's glad that i'm happier.. really thankful to have had such a wonderful and understanding boss.... pics of me and my colleagues found below.
