it takes one to know the other ..

"it takes one to know the other ... " this is one of suen chi's fav. sentence...

but how true an this be??

a recent incident .. well.. it's not like the 1st day i realise ... but today is the 1st day i feel it so bad ... and finally i relise how true these words are ...

the morning started out perfect... no jams.. my dad's home... i din felt into the toilet bowl ... it was perfect... i reach school on time, in short everything before 7.30am goes just nice...

but, i start to feel it when the 1st period class... the most headache class to attend ... 5A...

this class... well i'll put it this way .. htey are the weakest among all the standard 5 students ... they are the least capable to score high marks... i'm not bias at this and i know how it feels when u r in this kind of class... teacher will usually look down on you... they wont have high hopes for u, niether will they expect to see you get good marks ... as long as u pass... they will pray to god...

i've been in a class like this before... it was standard 3... i was in 3A too... it was a long story y i ended in this class... but i knmow how teacher feel for this kind of student...

aight.. now come back to this ... 5A... it strated wif me giving them thier paper ... thier marks disappoint me ... okey.. it seems like they are letting go of themselve... i usually discuss with them.. go thru every single question on the paper... and ask them to check the answer if i made any mistake .. to help them actually ... so they know wat they did wrong and at the same time they can check if i made any mistake on their paper...

when i was going thru the papers ... they dun pay attention ... ok that's one ... i sounded i few times ... but they voices of them juz keep on coming back .. they quite for like 30 to 60 seconds and resume their chat after i continue moving forward to another question ... so it's like .. frustrating u know .. okey .. den when the class is almost over , i asked them to hand in all the paper coz this was to prevent the question being leaked out ... coz i'm not sure is all the std. 5 student went thru this test or not .. so for safety ... and also to make sure they wont say they din bring thier paper the next time i want to discuss... when they pass up the paper ... it's juz not enuff .. it's always short of one ... miserable one .... and i cant seems to locate it .. and i ask the class... no one pays attention to me .. i'm like and idiot stadning right in front of everyone not asking but singing .. and it's like i'm singing badly that no one has to care bout me ... HELLO!!!!it's ur teacher standing right here .. not anyone else.. not ur maid ... and i'm toking to u ... plz .. show some respect okey???

and this led me in to a bad day in teaching .. on top of this incident... i have 8 periods today .. the most any teacher could get.. it's constant ... without break!!! the classes after that doesnt get any better...

well.. this is something good actually .. it actually bring me to think that... HAVE I BEEN SUCH KIND OF STUDENT TO MY TEACHER?? i'm quite sure at some point i were... or mayb i'm not that bad ... but who knows? i might juz be as bad as them ... or simply worst than anyone of them ?? i dont know ... the one who know will be the teachers that taught me b4... haha .. well .. come .. lets juz think about it ..
HAS anyone of u been thinking about how u have been as a student ?? how has a teacher been thinking about u ? well it seriously made me think about this .. haha .. having a hard time thinking about this ...

aight.. it was a Teacher's Day yesterday .. and our school will celebrate it on friday... so .. it's my first and mayb the last time i can celebrate Teacher's Day...

till i write again .. byE ...

i'm watching CHarmed on Star World...

blessed...!!!

I never think of how teacher think about me...cuz i always keep quiet in the class...and try to pay attention even Bro John's class. I know i'm consider as 乖 student...and normally teacher don't pay attention to such student. :p
