Blog 30: why i love being a teacher....

time: 11.30 a.m.

this is my 3rd day of being absent from school, due to my terrible health... ape lagi... sakit2 macam ni, dahla tinggal sensorang, melayan blues la jawabnye... abah + mama + nuha ikut uda ke singapore coz ude ade course. memule mama + abah xmo pegi coz aku x sehat but aku rase they deserve a break once in a while... sian nengok my parents, kenkadang aku rase x fair coz diorang x bebas2 dr rase terbeban dengan nak piker anak2 jek, especially aku yg x habes2 menyusahkan diorang...

bile dah xtau nk wat ape mule lah aku melayan bace blog2.. biasenye blog kenkawan n anak2 murid aku... so, bile aku bukak zue's blog, she wrote a whole entry just about me n yes, she managed to make me cry... haizz, zue.... sometimes i am so lucky 2 hev students like u who came into my world just to help me see n learn more things about life.. thanx alot.... u remind me again n again why i luv my job as a teacher...

truthfully, being a teacher is not actually my dream... however, fate brought me here n showed me how rich my life is just by being a teacher to these young minds... siapa sangka i would fall in luv wif my job, walaupon pada hakikatnye i do complain al ot.. but usually aku komplen pasal mende2 laen yg xde kaitan dgn mengajar (clerical work, office politics)... hehehhe..

my most fav teacher of all time... kakashi sensei... hawt!!hehehe

being a teacher also makes me feel young all the time. this is becoz i am the type of teacher who tries to understand my students, what they like/dislike.. what is 'in' or what is 'out'... tu la sebabnye aku x bleh terima bile aku penah dikritik kerana 'berkelakuan macam pelajar' a few years back just becoz students tend to be close 2 me coz we luv the same things n we talked about them during my extra english coaching after school hours. ape yg aku kesalkan dgn golongan2 ini ialah mereka2 yg so called 'berpengalaman' bukannye nak cuba understand what the students like tapi asyik2 hentam n say no to every single thing... macamla kalu ko cakap 'no' bebudak tu ikut... haiz..... aku penah di'tegur' secara sinikal coz dengar n guna lagu2 linkin park n gorrilaz dalam kelas, saying that these so called 'bingit' songs r a bad influence to my students...

"intan, kite sebagai chegu kenelah jadik pembimbing, kene tau ape yg baik dan buruk untuk pelajar2 kite, bukan menggalakkkan lagi mende2 macam ni... bla bla bla....~~"

ish, ish, ish teruknye teacher intan mengajar anak2 murid die jadik jahat... haiz.... tapi, tahukah anda manusia2 yg banyak pengalaman nih... dunia dah berubah, mende2 camnilah yg budak2 tu dengar everyday, so kalu korang cakap 'no' macamlah bebudak ni akan ikot... so aku ngan innocentnye tanyela soalan nih...

"abistu nak guna lagu macam mane, kak?"

"alah, banyak lagu ape, lagu Beatles ke.. macam lagi Yesterday tu, ok ape? akak suke dengar..."

time ni aku dah x leh layan dah coz betol2 nak meletop gelak... Beatles? zaman aku pon x denga Beatles.. tu zaman mama ngan abah aku kot.. pastu bley cakap lagi die suke dengar... oho, tau mende yg ko suke jek, mende yg students ko suke? haa... x paham betol aku ngan orang2 camnih...

yg paling aku x tahan yelah ade gak yg x suke nengok my interaction wif my students via facebook or blogs... hahhha.... yelah, aku kan saket siap ade yg tertanya2 lagi, "aiks.. kate saket, berfacebook ngan budak2 bley plak".. ahahhhaa... apelah agaknye kaitan sakit ngan facebook kan? tula macam aku ckp kat entry aku yg lepas2, agaknye orang camni hanya terima kalu aku cakap aku sakit sambil terbaring atas katil, macam dah nazak sambil terbatok2 keluar darah pastu org keliling bace yassin kot... ape, ko ingat ni drama swasta ke? aish!!!

some of students also ade impressive blogs n aku suka jadik secret reader. knape secret? pasal aku takmo sekat kebebasan diorang menulis, so aku rase kalu diorang tau ade cikgu yg bace blog diorang, musti diorang mule kontrol2 pastu dah hilang the 'honest' factor... pada aku, blogging is a healthy way 4 them to vent their emotions n feelings so knape sekat what they luv to do? cuma kalau keadaan jadik melampau2... macam kadar 'mencarot' yg x diterima akal or cerita meng'anyam' ketupat yag kadang2 tah betol ke tak, gossip jek lebey... hehhehheh.... (~~hint**hint***~~) so if aku terbace kat mane2, maybe i'll leave some anonymous comments... hehhehe....

tulah kenkadang aku rase my students bring a lot of impact to my life. i teach them something useful 4 them 2 succeed in life n in exchange they teach me to value my life more n to have positive outlooks in every situation... so, it's a win-win situation, kan? korang rase ade any other jobs yang bagi wonderful perks like this? :)

p/s: to zue, thanx 4 thinking so highly of me, on the contrary... truthfully, i am not a strong person but it's unconditional luv i got from my parents, siblings, friends n students that makes me stronger each day so i'm really2 thankful for that... only God knows how much i luv u guys very2 much...
