Finally, School started...
So far it has been exciting... tiring too... I had to drag myself to school EVERY morning. Form class is now Faith 1-5... No longer Joy 1-1. Not that easy too ey... but ok la... so far so good. As usual... trying to be good guy and bad guy at the same time...
Faith 2-3 seems to be needing time to warm up... Don't know any one in the class... so everything starting from scratch, so far, that's the only class left to remember names... (Oh yes. I can match 90% of the names to the faces already... haha)...
H31B and H32 needs no introduction. I even know the names of those 'new' people in the class... Reason being they are 'famous' enough, and I was there during their moderation. But well, it's almost the same dynamics. Not to difficult to handle... They know I can be crazy with them and also scold them like hell... And importantly... SMALL class... only 30+. Even if they're noisy still can scream them down haha... but H31B is more motivated than H32. Some of the students are 'physically' in class but 'spiritually' somewhere else. And they just don't feel like, or can't be bothered to study. Actually most of the teachers already pointed out that since they were in Sec 1. But still no improvement... Hopefully they get better this year...
And so, I shall see these people grow from little monkeys to big gorillas... as I've told them. If things goes right, I would most likely be seeing them for another three more years... means I'm basically their science teacher for their entire 5 years in the school. Cool ah... it's like seeing your own kid grow.
Oh.. Choir selection was rather well run this year. Big thanks to the Alumnis and the leaders for doing a good job in testing and also 'babysitting' the classes in the other room. I think the 'babysitters' really had a taste of what it's like to be in a class of 40 'active' students. Response was not too bad too... We desperately need members this year. Hopefully 30 new recruits. We've only 23 members... without the Sec 4s. And quota for SYF is usually at about 40. So to play safe... we need more than that. Hope that part goes well too... I seem to always lose in the 'snatching' process...
