an extremely ardous month
went kbox with
tzekwan and her friends (ok, and friends of friends too) yesterday. as i left something important in school the day before, i made a trip to school first before heading for kbox. despite yesterday being a public holiday, there were numerous people in school! and to my surprise, i wasnt the only staff member in the staff room! after getting what i needed from my cubicle, i made my way to AMK central. i almost couldnt find my way to the kbox centre there, but after trying very hard to recall the route which kai took me through the last time round and the random comments we made of the shops that we bypassed, i managed to locate the kbox centre.
i love the 2-7 slot! sing for 5 hours, super shiok! haha! the group of us sang a large variety of songs, from very new songs (mostly chosen by me) to very old classics (mostly sang by
tzekwan haha). and we had several common favourite singers, eg SHE and fish, so at one point in time, there were a few pages of SHE and fish songs on the "已点歌" list :D sang a few "high" songs, which ill always sing when i go kbox. wanted to sing hihi byebye, but noone there knew that cute song, and
tzekwan didnt appreciate cyndi. maybe nxt time! and i realised ive never seen fish's "wei wo hao" mv before! so when i reached home i went to watch the full mv, which is close to 11 mins! haha... before we ended the kbox session, we chose leo ku's 12 min song. lol. the kbox staff had to chase us out towards the end. she was probably wondering how come we could continue singing for so long.
its so fun to kbox! its always a good way to destress for me. but it didnt help much. after all the fun and laughter yesterday, i sat down and reviewed my lesson plan for the remainder of the term. my stint at rj is coming to an end, and ill be leaving my classes very soon. the problem is, theres still a lot left to cover, before my students r fully prepared for the upcoming common tests. there are quite a number of teachers who are slower than me in terms of tutorial progress, but they are having make ups during the june holidays, something i am unable to do due to my upcoming internship. so the best i can do is to hold many make up sessions and attempt to cover the syllabus before the term ends.
to make matters worse, the possibility of schools being closed down is hovering around. i really dont know what im going to do if schools were to close down, so i am really hoping that there wont be a H1N1 outbreak in singapore. *crosses fingers really hard*
the math department teachers keep reassuring me that there is no need to worry, as they will pick up the pieces from where i left off, but it will never be the same for me. i guess im just a perfectionist. i signed up for the job to complete the entire stats course with my classes... if i do not get the chance to do so, ill just have this tinge of regret. ok, its an understatement to say "tinge". i think it will just continue to bug me for a long long time.
and so, this morning, i just stared at the calendar, looking at the little time i have left with my classes, and thinking about the massive amounts of content i still have to cover, and i basically just stressed myself up again. how i wish i have a shi2 guang1 ji1 and slow time down. im already feeling very sad that ill be leaving my classes soon. and now i feel further burdened by the stress of completing the syllabus, and the possibility of schools being closed down (which means the possibility of having to say an early farewell to my classes).
an extremely ardous month of may lie ahead. arghh. i need more kbox therapy.
