I am ANGRY, FUCKING ANGRY, where are there so many STUPID people around!

Afterthought

It's been a crazy year so far. Before i even realised it, NIE is over, practicum has passed. Its been almost a year since i graduated from NUS.

Churou asked me yesterday over lunch why I joined teaching in the first place.Hmm, There are so many reasons involved. The pay is good and it was offered to me during the recession. There is no office politics(Ya, right). You have school holidays. Then, there is the other side of the story. You can really make a difference to society through your students. Interact with young people and teach them what is on the syllabus and in your own heart.

In a way, teacher is a selfish bunch. We demand that people listen to us when we talk, enjoy the air of superiority when only we know and is the monopoly of the knowledge in the classroom, wants to feel good by knowing that we make a difference and likes to nag and be paranoid.

So if you ask me why i wanted to join teaching, honestly, I do not have an satisfactory answer for you because I do not even have one for myself.

P/S: My toy collection is growing at a increasing rate this year!!! So much for trying to curb my spending.

How far are you willing to go to please your kid?

I found this incident disturbing. A mum actually went to make a baby cry just to please her daughter. As some of you knows, my mum is a baby sitter and what you don't know is how spolit and how her parents simply did not help her differentiate what is right and what is wrong.

The kid which my mum look after have a baby cousin and every night when her mum comes to fetch her, she will brought along the baby cousin cause the kid wants to play with her. Now this is where everything goes wrong. The kid's definition of paly is to treat the baby like a toy, making her laugh as she pleases and bully her as she wishes. Her current favorite is too stop the toddler from walking and making the toddler cries. And her mum actually helps her.

When I saw this, I got very angry. How can an adult bully a baby? What the FUCKING HELL!!! What the hell is wrong with her? I have to carry the baby and comfort her and I hope they can be ashamed of themselves. The kid's mum actually climbs up my sofa to run about to let the toddler chase her and when the toddler fails to catch up with her aunt, she will cries and the kid will laugh.

Utterly Digusting. I am ashamed to even say I know them.

My mum have been trying very hard to help the little kid differentiate what is worng and what is right. But her mum always do otherwise and my mum find it harder and harder to impart the right moral knowledge anymore.

Digusting, absolutely digusting..

Next year

The old sofa in my house was finally being discarded away because mom finally decided to get a new one. Seing the new sofa, I wasn't as happy as I thought I would be. I even have this sense of "she bu de" as I took this picture.

Actually, the sofa started to break down a few years back. So long it was that I could not even remember. And everytime, the wood pieces under the handle fell off, we would stick it back with a 50 cents Da xiang pai super glue. And so were the two coffee tables.

And everytime when we were sticking the pieces back, mom would always say," I think we should get a new one somewhere near the next Chinese new year."

This line practically became a joke for the family because it has been repeated for so many times already. Well, as the TV show says, she de, yao she de cai you de.

Alcohol

Went St. James last night to attend Crowd Lu's live performance there. Had a gin tonic there. Hmm, what should I say...Really don't like alcohol, not at all.. Beer is fine though...Hmmm
