this week is really passing by very quickly.
was happy about it till today.
had a bad day today.
hectic and it just affected me badly.
my day started off bad by the fact that i woke up late
and had to cab to school in order to reach by 7.20am
the moment i reached school.
the fact that i saw my name on the relief board with a whole chunk of relief
totally turned me off..
i was told yesterday to cover for a teacher for just 1hr
but it turned out that i had to cover her for 3hours today
and on top of that i had 1hr of relief.
this wasnt the worst.
i left the staffroom at 9am for class..
but the thought that i am coming back at 10.30am for my recess break kept me going
BUT..
at 10am.. i was being called down to the general office in the midst of my lessons
reason being, a parent wanted to see me and she isn't very nice about it.
left the class at 10am..
headed down to see the parent..
issue surfaced, i talked to her and tried to clarify myself for about 30mins
but she wasnt pleased..
she still bear the thought that i punished her daughter for nothing
so she wanted her daughter to come down to clarify as well.
fine, i called for her daughter..
and in the next 30mins or so, her daughter came up with 2 other stories
which doesnt tally with the one she told her mum.
after 1 hours of clarification..
she decided that she will put a stop to this matter cos she realised her daughter..
was at fault and aint telling the truth.
feeling a strong gust of unjust, i patiently explained and clarified..
despite the mum's unreasonable accusation and raising of voice..
i kept my cool and i'm surprised how i can still put a smile and continue to listen to her
and do my clarfication..
i must say i am proud of myself for this..
so with the session.. my recess break was being forgo..
went back to the staffroom at about 10.50am.. the FT of that girl talked to me
and she said ask me not to put to heart cos this isnt the first time the girl did this..
and she even thanked me praised me for handling the parent&issue well..
time was precious.. because i had to rush to class again at 11am..
class from 11am-12nn.
i went to class heavy hearted, hungry and irritated
i was totally affected by it!
watched the clock ticked and i kept thinking why isit passing so slowly
finally when 12nn came, i left the class without second thought
headed to staffroom, and thank god for good colleagues.
they got me a sandwich and i ate it! :)
right after that.. phone beeped
and i had to run errands for the teacher i was covering
and that took me a while..
the next time i returned to the staffroom was at 12.45..
and my relief is at 1pm!
i was utterly pissed..
breaks are being disturbed once again.
so in conclusion..
i only had 15mins of break today!
and had to leave school right away for a workshop at RMPS.
thank god it ended earlier this year.
bad day today.
but good thing tmr is the last day!
holidays, i need you!
through what happened today..
i learnt alot..
keeping my composure and cool in times like this..
is one of the best thing i ever mastered..
credits must go to GV.. for training me while i was put to face unreasonable patrons
and sometimes colleagues.
hoping for the best for now...
