Help me find a hole to scream in so I could hear the echoes.

Today was the busiest day since my 2 weeks in SIM's exams department. Damn! I shouldn't have said anything about being slack in office. Now I don't even have time to do jumping jacks, push ups or flex my biceps. Lol. All thanks to that woman who came back from 2 weeks' "MIA" and now she orders me to do this and that, type this and that, file this and that. Quite a "tekan" session for me even though it's just administrative stuff, but still it adds up to quite a bit. And my eye juices tend to dry staring at the computer for long hours, squinting and scanning through those lists of courses and lecturers' names.

I wonder if they would "yin shui si yuan"(go figure in chinese), and realise that I'm the one doing all these "saikang" so they could comfortably go invigilate, mark the scripts and whatever. And the students who handed in their End of Course projects, you better be thankful I'm the one sorting through your stuff!!! The students are supposed to return to school to hand in their End of Course projects via cd-rom. Then they are supposed to sign to indicate they have handed in. Today, I saw a fellow staff wrote this comment besides a student's name...

"Student refused to sign, kept on with scolding.."

WTF?! Lol. After that, got to know from my supervisor that that student is a bit mentally unstable. Ok, maybe not just a bit. HAHA. But really interesting.

In office, I don't understand why but I notice there are mirrors on almost every desk above each desktop computer. Acts like some rearview mirror. Haha. These office workers, so wary of who's checking them out from behind. Probably just making sure that their superior is not watching them from behind. But whatever!! The mirrors are so obvious. Haha. WHO'S AFRAID OF THE BIG BROTHER???

Here's an example. BIG BIG monitor below. SMALL SMALL mirror above. XD

Well, might as well make use of my creativity, no matter how restricted the environment is. Haha. There's always a "camera" time.


Anyway, I mentioned in my previous entry that my new colleagues(temp staff too) were coming up with plans for an outing. They decided to draw them out on a piece of paper with pieces of tapes sticking over it. I got bored and decided to add in some suggestions too. Plus some doodlings. Haha.

Here's how it looked at first.

I came up with some suggestions like going to Night Safari, Escape, fly kite, ice-skating, BBQ... And of course these suggestions were illustrated with diagrams drawn by moi. Lol.

After that, I got a bit bored. And decided to bring the whole piece into a higher level. Here's the outcome.

Hehheh. Pretty cool eh? =D

And so, that's office boredom for you. Come up with your own ways of coping with those boring hours in office!

After work, I drove home(ahh the convenience of having a car. Reached home in 15 mins' time). After that went for tuition. My tutess were absolutely atrocious! They took so much advantage of me. Taking their own time. Munching on snacks, walking in and out of the room, not wanting to study at all. I was rather fed up with them. So sometimes I just acted "heck care". Wanted to teach them well but they seem to be so caught up in their own worlds. So distracted and restless. These primary school kids! And guess what, the girl cried again, cos she claimed she was afraid of tomorrow's chinese paper. She said she doesn't know how to write. DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO WRITE. On the eve of her paper, she's telling me all these crap. And when I offered to teach her some good words to use for her essay, she cried even louder, saying "only a bit of words not enough". Whatever whatever. I'm already quite exhausted having spent my time on heavy workload in office today and now still have to be "nanny", or "manny" rather to these 2 kids who refuse to pay attention.

Whatever kids. Don't make Mr. Nice Teacher lose my temper. You won't like it kiddo.

And whatever. I still get paid at the end of the day. So I'm not complaining. Well, maybe a little. But HEY! I have reason to. Now I know why so many tutors avoid teaching primary school kids.

Ok, I'm telling myself it's good training. Good training for my patience. Cool down. Haha.

Whenever I'm about to lose my temper, this face popped out and that eased the crease for a while.

Kids and their charm. Damn!

Ok. Relax. I'm still 12 anyway. Remember that. =D
