Boooooooo~~~

Have been quite upset lately because of one student. Or rather, I am angry with her. =X

Firstly, updates!

To top the list of my updates, I want to say that I went to the gym on Sunday again! Well, it was not because I really set my mind to be very healthy. The decision was made because on Saturday, some volunteers from the CC came to my aunt's house in Jurong East to do a free health check-up for the residents. Coincidentally, Mum and my other aunts were having a family gathering there. So, the whole of my family members were given a check. My cousin found out that she has put on some weight and thus, urged me to company her to the gym on Sunday. Luckily, my BMI was in the healthy range. But, the happier thing for me was that at least my weight seems to have decrease. Good news I hoped. Well, the second reason which drove me to the gym was because I took a Tarot reading for the week at MSN. And it said that I should have a nice workout on Sunday and that's how I ended up there. Sadly, we only did like one hour and I hurriedly left for tuition.

Anyway, Xian introduced me to another tuition assignment again! Thanks loads! The person who introduced the tuition to her was her junior. Hence, everytime I visit the household, I thought of her. ( PS,no worries! You are being missed!) The only weird thing is I have to teach chinese. Well, it was really difficult to make someone improve their chinese. I mean HOW? Do more writing? Read more books? Anybody got any idea? Cox, when I asked the student to do more writing, he was like scratching his head, doing all the funny actions as if I am giving him hell. =Xx oKAY. But, at least there is a phrase that says :" A strict teacher makes out a good student." I hope I can lock that saying in my head. Because I think ~~I am really not like a teacher at all.~~

Recently, this student is giving me headache. Or rather, we had a quarrel. I mean, she has no respect at all despite being in Primary 5 already. I wouldn't want to spell out what she do la. But, she was in the wrong and wouldn't apologise. I told her that if you have no manners, you shouldn't even touch books in the first place. I simply hate students who are overly -pampered and who thinks they are so great. She is so ~~bafdhjgdfdfjgdytr~~!!!!!I really did put in my utmost effort to teach her, but i think she don't really appreciate. Or was it I haven't done well enough? Now, I know why teachers suffer many bad syndroms.And,after all these experience of teaching, I feel that I really find it very difficult to teach when students doesn't have the heart to learn. Should I hang in there? Or should I quit teaching her? We used to be okay with each other till she started not to treat me with respect. I know that respect is being earned, not demanded. But, at least some respect for teachers should be in the moral values yea? Whatever, I am getting hot headed talking about her. =XxxX

OKay. I should think about students who really make my day. =D " Teachers", I really take my hat off you.

Time to relax. Bye!
