Mere childish behaviour or a sign of rebelliousness?

Bertenang. Tarik nafas, lepas. Tarik nafas, lepas.
Cabaran harini: Murid umur 11 tahun menjawab dan tunjuk samseng. Depan rakan sebaya.
(Trying to humiliate me in front of his class)
Adess...
Makan, pakai, segala masih lagi bawah tanggungan ibubapa, dah pandai berlagak samseng. Kalau di sekolah tunjuk perangai macam tu, agaknya di rumah macam mana?
Ok, fine, I'm may not be his teacher, but still, I'm an adult, someone he at least should show some respect.
No, I do not demand for respect, but I still deserve it. The heck, I'm 20 years older than him.
It saddens me to think that the fact he's a Muslim. Where are his Muslim values? What is happening to our kids nowadays? *~Deep sigh~
Should I let this pass? Should I take action? Should I just blame it on the hormones?
*~Sigh~ — feeling down.

Kids get influenced so easily.

Today, on my way back to the computer lab from the office after clocking in, I overheard something that both amuses and baffled me.

Passing trough the standard 3 class, I heard, "Janganlah." A girl said to her friend. "Saya bad mood okay." With accent.

LOL!

I'm upset!

Couldn't even pronounce my name or call me with the correct name, and aspect me help you? What do you think I am? A tool? At least have the decency to learn my name or ask nicely. Sheesh... the nerve of some people. And you aspect me to be polite back?

SELAMAT HARI GURU 2013

Soalan 1: Irah, komputer mana boleh guna ni?

Hectic Weeks

The two big things that I mentioned that occupied my time and energy for these couple of weeks have ended. First, Program Pasca UPSR which can be simply put as competitions specially design for year 6 student. Among the competitions designed, eight were specific to test on IT skill of those who own eBook. Shame to announce that our school could not win any single category! Added to my frustration towards year 6 students. You can read it more in my post titled I'm disappointed. I explained (plus unleash my dissatisfactions) somewhat detailed there already.
The second thing was that year 4 students get their eBook on 16 October. As usual, I’m involved completely from the process of giving them the eBook till the process of taking all record necessary (serial number, key etc.) one ebook, I had to take 3 serial number and two product key. Next I’ll have to collect them all back to activate programs. But in the meant time, I’ve completed the record part. Satisfied! Though I had my share of muscle sores and headaches to get trough it. Currently I’m suffering a mild discomfort due to coughing I manage to developed for…

I'm diassapointed.

Why? Because what I've been planning for my dear students were not taken seriously and I was left as if I was talking to a wall. Without guilt they ignore my advices. Now, I’m taking a rather drastic measure of ignoring all year 6 students entirely. I think it's not fair that I have to settle all their eBook problems but in return they gave no respond none what so ever to my requests. They come to me to repair their ebook but when I ask them to do some activities, they simply ignore me. What activities you might ask? Here, let me explain:
In order to keep the year 6 students occupied after the UPSR, I design activities keeping in mind that it was for their benefit. Though I admit I wasn't ignored completely, the 3rd and 4th items might be too much but, at least have the courtesy to ask questions.
But instead they just played games day in dan day out. Who wouldn't get frustrated???

Nak nangis boleh tak?

Kerja bertimbun-timbun-timbun ni! Bulan ni pulak ada dua perkara besar yang akan dijalankan. Sedih la. cita-cita tak nak tinggalkan dah blog ni. Tapi apa boleh buat. Review ada bannyak dalam kepala. tunggu masa je nak post. Isu pun banyak jugak. Dua minggu ni banyak kejadian kat sekolah yang nak dibincangkan dan diketengahkan. moga dapat pandangan dari pembaca. alaha.... sabar je lah. kepala hampir nak meletop. Sebab banyak fikir? hehe.. malam sumer. taa..

Heliza Helmi

Kamu comel lah! Hehe... Sejak minat tengok nenek comel sorang ni, dapat tahu ada beberapa persamaan antara dia dan saya. Eh, bukan in-ter-prem yer! Saja buat modal tulis entri je. Perkara yang dimaksudkan ialah (tanpa menyatakan apa sebenarnya persamaan itu):

Esok ada mesyuarat...

     Entah apa la boss nak cakap esok. Entah-entah nak marah sebab marah kat murid. Ada ka ibubapa buat aduan kat orang atas? Khamis lepas ada ibubapa murid telefon, tapi tak bagitahu pasal apa. Pastu, harini GB pulak tak masuk-masuk lepat taklimat. Entah-entah malas nak jumpa sebab sakit hati atau runsing tengok muka.... ??? Bimbang ni, bimbang!

Semua kerna presepsi..

Dua benda tak seronok dah jadi baru baru ni. Semua kerna presepsi.
1. Bila rasa diri cantik sikit, mula la nak 'demand'. Apa? Ingat orang akan turut semua kehendakmu hanya kerna kamu itu indah dipandang? Maaf la! Kalau hati tak baik, lambat laun orang akan benci jugak. Prespsimu salah bila kamu fikir kamu boleh dapat apa yang kamu mahu hanya dengan rupa semata. Ingatlah, semua tu tak kekal. Hidup ni bagai roda. Cuma perlu tunggu giliran saja..
2. Hanya kerna kamu berfiran begitu, tidak semestinya orang lain juga akan mempunyai pendapat yang sama. Salah faham mudah terjadi bila berlaku pertembungan antara individu individu berbeza latar belakang/usia. Presepsi yang berlainan di antara dua itu boleh menyebabkan konflik yang tak munasabah. Sebelum membuat presepsimu sendiri, cubalah untuk meletakkan dirimu di tempatnya. Cubalah untuk tidak bersangka buruk. Mungkin konflik yang tak munasabah itu dapat dielakkan.
Selalulah bersangka baik dan senyumlah dengan hatimu. Nescaya hidup akan lebih tenang.. ¥(^_^)

Sakit segala anggota tubuh.

Bila tak biasa kerja kuat, ini la akibatnya..
Bahu dan tangan lenguh lenguh mengangkat lebih kurang 200 kotak kotak yang seberat 5kg setiap satu.
Kaki pulak lenguh dek kerana berdiri dan berjalan sepanjang hari. Tambah pulak pakai sepatu formal.
Jari jari tangan dan tulang penumbuk luka luka. Sebab menggunakan gunting sebagai pisau untuk buka kotak kotak dan lipat kotak kotak. Segala jenis 'paper cut' ada di jari. Lepastu sempat pulak gunting tangan sendiri. Calar balar dibuatnya.
Kuku kuku rasa macam nak tercabut dek kerana bateri laptop yang terlalu ketat. Kalau buat sekali tak apa, cuba banyangkan kalau buat 138 kali? Sempat la jugak kuku ni berdarah.
Tapi walau apa pun, aku redha kerna ini memang tugas ku. Apa guna gaji kalau tak kerja? Kalau terima gaji tapi malas kerja, itu gaji buta namanya. Lagipun, benda ni sekali aje setahun. Tambah pulak beban kerja ni digendong bersama rakan sejawatan. :-)
Bunyi cerita macam sibuk ajekan? Tak hairan la kalau blog ni ada sedikit terabai... Maaf la ye.

Keeping score? (Before continue reading, please keep in mind that I have NO intentions on boasting what so ever)

This is a note taken from my Facebook page concerning my Facebook status on Jan 20. You can read that Facebook status in this entry.

     Today, my nightmare came true. Remember I mention my school having a new substitute teacher? Comparing her and me seems to be unavoidable. (T_T) somebody help me please!

      It turns out she has a lot to offer despite of her age. Only 27 and knows how to bake all kind of cakes, and has many work experiences. Kek Batik Sarawak, pudding caramel, etc. Work experience in Kuala Terengganu and experience as a substitute in Sek Keb Kerandang and MRSM. CC kept praising her of being friendly, educated and all.

     And as you might also remember from my status, she’s single but not available. My CC asked when she’ll be inviting us to the wedding, she replied not that soon. The man in question is a local man who works in Johor, I heard, but not interested.

     She came in the office today because she had something to print in color for the class she’s currently taking over. Writing famous quotes on A4 papers to be laminated and stick on the wall. Eleven quotes in total; I noticed one that said “Room is not build in one day”.  ∑(O_O；)Shocked！！ … What to do? What to do? What do you think I did? The kiasu side of me blurted out the mistake without even thinking! At this time, CC was asking her about her experience in MRSM as a substitute English teacher.  Evil grin!（￣ー￣）ニヤリ

     CC showed interest, she inquire what was actually wrong about the quote. Both she and I explain from our own understandings. In the end, she said “I’ll ask my father about it.” … I know, I’m bad right? Really bad! It was not like I never made a mistake before, but to be better in something secretly gave me some satisfaction.

     The moment I’ve been waiting for finally came when CC said I’m also good in English. Then, came more compliments from other colleagues. Suddenly PK1 walk by and praises me too! Ngeee… ~(^__^) at this point, in direct translations, I was blooming! Yup, I know, I seemed cocky at this point. Better yet, not seemed, but AM cocky! And I also know I should repent immediately. But could you not at least give me this one? She won the previous rounds already. (ToT)

     So far, she’s: 1. better looking, 2. better personality, 3. can bake (talented), 4. More work experiences, 5. Single but not available. Five points for her there. As for me: … 1. I merely and selfishly pointed out her small mistake. ½ point for me here, couldn’t even count it as one point.

     

     Keeping score? From now on, we refer her as D. The verdict so far, D 5 : me ½.

Spending my hard earned money is always satisfying and painful at the same time...

     Today I decided to go to town to spend some money and release some of my stress. Plus, to use my Guardian coupon attained from the calendar I got in December. I went with a colleague as a driver and another colleague to accompany. On the way, they complain about money which never seem enough and how their husbands never seem to give enough money for household expenses.

     At Guardian, with my coupons at hand, I pick the items carefully trying to not make a mistake since I don't want to regret buying anything or mistaken buying something else and end up not using the coupons. When it's time to pay, the amount topped at RM107. Both my colleagues looked at each other and smiled. You can guess what went through their minds at that time. Since I'm single and still living with my parents, I have no expenses or money worries.

     After Guardian, we went to a restaurant because my colleagues decided to have lunch. Like always, I won't order anything since I don't eat out. Usually, in these cases, I'll just order something to drink. (Milo Tabur most of the time.) While waiting, I took out my Guardian receipt to check on the things I bought, like I usually do. To my surprise, there were mistakes on them.

     A coupon that was supposed to save me RM15 was counted as 15% of the original price. So you can imagine how I feel when, for example the original price for the item was RM38 and I had to pay RM32.30 instead of RM23 which was the correct amount I had to pay if the coupon was process correctly.

     So I went back to Guardian to get my refund. Fortunately the cashier (a different one, since the male cashier went out for lunch) understood the receipt and the mistake the first cashier made, she and another female SA run through my stuff again and recounted my bill. It turns out the difference of the original receipt and the correct receipt was RM30. Imagine if I had not checked the receipt and gone back home. I would have lost RM30 just for nothing, all because of a silly cashier's mistake.

Guardian coupon

     It turns out I only spent about RM56 for all my stuff. My two colleagues also bought some stuff and we pay them in one receipt because I'm collecting the little Guardian stamps.

     

     So people, check your receipt. Make sure you pay the correct amount for the correct items. It pays to be a little bit thorough. (^_^)

Nazir datang sekolah...

     Pelik kan? bila tiba masa dinilai, mula la semua tunjuk muka baik, perangai baik. Tapi lupa yang kita dinilai 24 jam oleh Allah.

     Bila Nazir nak datang sekolah, mula la masing-masing kemaskini benda yang sepatutnya dibuat tiap hari walaupun tanpa kehadiran Nazir. Cikgu semua jadi baik... Baju, tali leher, tag nama, kasut (bukan sandal-bagi cikgu wanita). Masuk kelas, ikut waktu, masa mengajar, tunjuk kebolehan yang jarang dilakukan dalam kelas untuk tarik perhatian murid. Murid-murid semua dipesan suruh 'berperangai baik'. Bila pikir balik, semua tu jadi lucu. Hanya kerna orang yang menilai ada didepan mata, baru takut, baru la nak buat baik. Tapi cuba la kalau malaikat yang duduk di kanan dan kiri tu nampak. Setiap yang dilakukan dicatit dan diperlihatkan... Macam mana pulak tu ya?
