It's My Life

Where does the teaching part in 'teacher' goes to?

All the supposed to be 'ideal' ideologies of teaching: behaviourist / innatist / interactive and so on....

It's supposed to be ideal. It's supposed to get your students to learn the second language as much as they possibly can.

But what limits the 'success' of second language learning or even learning in general, is the amount of paperwork that teachers have to do. I don't mind getting gazillions of periods or even marking books everyday as I have been trained to specialize in this. What I hate is the ridiculous amount of paper work that I believe is so not meant to be completed by teachers.

Exhibit A:

Teacher has already prepared a well planned 6 periods lesson in a day. Here comes third period and you have to correct a student's IC number of TESTS. Nothing major just TESTS. As the students are our stakeholders too. And it is important to 'satisfy' your stakeholder.

I'm not complaining, but I believe that teachers are well trained to EDUCATE / SHOW / EXEMPLIFY? But why often we have to do things that we would learn if we got our degrees from a SECRETARIAL COLLEGE.

Like duh. Fuh.

I bet in the future that'd be something called TA, teacher's assistant. Cause right now I feel like hiring one and most importantly he / she can deal with people who I don't consider to be important to deal with. Urgh!

bling bling!

Back to December

oh my god it's been awhile since i posted an entry of a song. love love love this song. taylor swift looks gorgeous in this video.

I'm so glad you made time to see me

How's life, tell me how's your family

I haven't seen them in a while

You've been good, busier then ever

We small talk, work and the weather

Your guard is up and I know why

'Cause the last time you saw me

Is still burned in the back of your mind

You gave me roses and I left them there to die

So this is me swallowing my pride,

Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night

And I'd go back to december all the time

It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

Wishing that I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I'd go back to december, turn around and make it alright and

I go back to december all the time

These days I haven't been sleeping

Staying up playing back myself leaving

When your birthday passed and I didn't call

And I think about summer, all the beautiful times

I watched you laughing from the passenger side,

Realized I loved you in the fall

And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind

You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye

So this is me swallowing my pride,

Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night

And I'd go back to december all the time

It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

Wishing that I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I'd go back to december, turn around and change my own mind and

I go back to december all the time

I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile, so good to me, so right

And how you held me in your arms that September night,

The first time you ever saw me cry

Maybe this is wishful thinking

Probably mindless dreaming

If we loved again I swear I'd love you right

I'd go back in time and change it but I can't

So if the chain is on your door, I understand

But this is me swallowing my pride,

Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night

And I'd go back to december

It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

Wishing that I'd realized what I had when you were mine and

I go back to december, turn around and make it alright and

I go back to december, turn around and change my own mind and

I go back to december all the time

heee

ohmondieu! i have totally neglected my blog! in fact my laptop for the whole week of last week. first week of january has been so hectic!

1. doing your masters PART TIME is definitely not fun! juggling between work and studying, there isn't much time life for 'ME' time. if you know me well, you'll know that SUCKS big time. my 'ME' time usually involve MONEY (duh...), shopping malls, book shops (just to make me believe that I am spending my money 'wisely'), FOOD and MOVIES.. (i'm craving for A&W for days nowwwwww). and who say the lecturers are more 'understanding' and the projects are 'easier'.. urghhhh!!

2. so last weekend i was like, okay this weekend i shall focus on my schoolwork. you see tuesday is a public holiday here in johor (YEAY, i know!!) and I was like today will be my STUDY day. GUESS WHAT?? there's no studying at all!! i wanted to catch up with my readings so that when I enter the classes tomorrow I'd have some PRIOR KNOWLEDGE (instead of the usual, oh macam-pernah-dengar-dulu face)

3. so TODAY i was SUPPOSED to spend my time wisely by studying, but.... instead i watched MOVIES> ooohh i didn't go to the cinema as i don't have enough $$$ to afford the cinema and i don't have the time at all~ but i managed to squeeze in 3 movies today (hahaha *evil laugh*) so i finally watched AVATAR (haha.. ketinggalan i know), Ramona and Beezus & The Tourist.. it was all just OKAY movies.. nothing WOW! haha.

4. ohh I managed to spend my time at the 'library' the other day.. and i didn't actually do enough 'research' on what books to get and i have just realised that i only got 2 out of 10 books right!! urghhh.. imagine the walk that i have to make to return the books!

5. this year i really hope that i can juggle my work and study well. with all the workloads that i'm getting i really hope that i won't neglect any of it. meaning?? i should limit my 'GOSSIP TIME'. so i will sit more at my place this year (let's see how long this will last)..

6. oohhh! and the traffic has been crazy this year. we have just been switched the a one session school... i had to go out really early just to get a parking spot!

okay that's all for now. *toodles*

let's countdown!

new year, new resolutions.. this year, i shall.. okay who am i kidding?? i never stick to my resolutions so it'll be such a waste listing on my resolutions.... but what i know, 2011 would be a year of LETTING GO...

1. Letting go of unnecessary drama (whatever will be, will be)

2. Letting go of any NEGATIVE aura (to be more specific NEGATIVE people)

3. Letting go of my laziness (haha..)

4. Letting go of my mistakes and moving on.

so HELLO 2011. i welcome you. and i promise i'll write more.

please bring happy moments =)

P/S: making promises are easy.. keeping your promises is difficult (i think i've read it somewhere, can't remember the author though)

Marry You

Life has definitely been hectic! and during my free time, i tend to catch up with my reading as i have bought too many books for this holiday and i need to complete it before the school starts (don't worry i don't read SMART books.. haha..)!! This would be a random entry on BRUNO MARS. haha. i know, i'm a little bit too late to be writing on my blog on how obsessed i am with him but since i am oh so addicted with his songs i have to write an entry on him!

Bruno Mars is without a doubt, the best singer of 2010. His singles are simply SUPERB. although just the way you are has already been overrated, i still love it. then i love GRENADE even more. COUNT ON ME is pretty cool too. i mean it's not GREAT for Bruno Mars, but it's still a pretty cool song. and now, i'm addicted to MARRY YOU. GLEE has also made their own version of this song. which i find to be a lot catchier. BUT i still love BRUNO MARS. he's so talented. he produces his own SONGS!!! he must be so ROMANTIC (okay tibe2 aje.. haha.)!! haha. how will he ever come out with another single that would top GRENADE and JUST THE WAY YOU ARE? hmmm...

pray

okay the title reflects the song that i'm listening to... hence the title... oookayyyyy.... i know justin bieber is so lame but i got hooked to this song after watching grey's anatomy... i have not been updating my blog as i have been doing less 'cyber-stalking' and am spending more time on my dramas... brother&sisters, grey's anatomy, private practice & desperate housewives. i am more in love with them now more than ever. and i LOVEEE eva longoria MUCHOOOO! before this i can't decide on my favourite character in desperate housewives and this season, i have decided it is EVA LONGORIA. she's GORGEOUS and i so love love Gabriella Solis' character.

next up would be Vampire Diaries. i've been meaning to watch this show since like forever but i have not been in a vampire mode for like foreverrrrrrrrrrrr...
