I know that my blog has been pretty quiet and dead for some time. Thinking of changing it into a teaching blog. I have been spending alot of time building resources for my class and chanced upon teaching blogs of U.S teachers and it's pretty awesome and extremely inspiring. I haven't gotten down to fully setting up my class room but we're holding up pretty alright.
This year I have alot of responsibilities and alot of projects to work on. Furthermore, I dug my own grave by signing up for tuition which I really can't cope for much longer. No idea how to break teh news to them but I have to.Tuition means a very good amount of money but extra time means less time for myself and sprucing up lessons.
I like my students alot. They are a naughty bunch of cute kids. However, they do find some way to cheer me up by the end of the day. I often preach what i believe in almost everyday, which is to respect others, be humble and never hurt one another. Also to be considerate and think how their actions are going to affect others. I find my self repeating everyday, but I guess with children, you have to.
Its been almost 2 weeks since I even raised my voice in class. All thanks to whole brain teaching strategy. It's awesome. I use it constantly and tweak it abit here and there. I have yet to set up the birthday and goodies corner, thinking and calming down corner and the goals corner. I also haven't jazz up my class door with the vital statistics of my class! haha.. And haven't I done all these yet.. Because my time is eaten up in track, remedials, supplementary, focus group, safety duties, projects, assembly presentations, work reviews, lesson plans, markings, attendance cases and the list goes on.
And tuition...oh gawd....
Things have been pretty chaotic at home, my parents are not at their pink of health esp my dad and there is alot of tension. I have alot of issues to deal with and decisions to make. And since my life has revolved around my work, I don't have the time to sit and think. Oh what do I do! I have all these questions.. And I need to find the answers. I know that I need to help out my parents as much as possible financially. But at the same time how about my future? I have always depended on myself for everything. It makes me very uncomfortable to ask for help and I avoid it at all costs. I fear that I will not have enough to support myself and fuel my dreams and plans for my future at the same time I can't compromise my duties to my parents. And the most frustrating thing amongst all this is that my siblings don't give two hoots about it!! I mean seriously, are we from the same womb? Infact they only make the situation worse..
My relationship with my soulmate is actually going on smoothly for now. I guess we're too busy with our lives to quarrell or even hold a grudge with each other. Futhermore, if there's anything that teaching has given back to me, it would to be patient.I am almost indifferent to alot of things. I feel like the person I was when I ran competitively. Which is awesome. Also we got positive feedback about our marriage issues and we are thrilled to hear the good that are come our ways and what we have to do.
My relationship with god has been pretty neglected. Which is bad... because if there is anyone I have depended on it would be god. And I really need to make that effort.
Because I am so super busy. Yes I am honestly busy, no time to watch tv! I spend lesser time with the people i use to visit pretty often, barely get the chance to go clubbing with them or even talk. But with family they will never understand! Like I said I am indifferent, simply because I am not dependent on anyone for anything. At times I feel like delievering the pie from the help to some pple. But, otherwise, I couldn't care less, because I know the pple who love me and care for me truly understand my position and let me know that they are always looking out for me..
Oh ya, did I mention. Me and my darling Navin bought our first home. Which will take a while to arrive but it's all for the good of our wonderful future together.
Happy days yall'!
