ALL MARKINGS DONE!!!!!! Yahooooooo........

It was the Graduation Ceremony today.

It brought back such beautiful memories when I had the ceremony with my form class last year.

This, year, although I had no graduation class as my form class, I did feel rather emotional for my 4C. I have taught more than 3/4 of the class since Sec 2 ... and I truly , honestly enjoyed every single moment with them.. I fought for them when I didn't get to teach the class last year, I can never ever stay angry with them for more than a few minutes...and they knew it! Lessons were almost ALWAYS fun with them...and I never dread going for their lessons.

Besides this year's 4C, quite a number of students from the other Sec 4 classes were my form kids when they were in sec 2. That was one of my best form classes ever! I am gonna miss all of them so much.....

At the moment, there is no partuicular class which I feel a lot for ( mebe the current 2C ....it's always e 'C' classes!) but I guess, might as well...so that it would be too difficult to leave come mid 2008.

Anyway, pics would be up on multiply site soon. :-P

I love to store messages that I chanced upon when I visit student's blogs. Since this blog of mine is rather exclusive ( only a few pple know), the only intention of quoting the student's words is so as to remind me that...yes, a teacher does have an impact. HOpe it would motivate me ! :-)

From Lynn Wee (sec 2C):
Miss Haryani, I got closer to you during Mtamorphosis.
you are a great teacher ;D whenever I have questions, I dont mind asking you
cos I know you will help me (: hees, I love your table and I really miss the day when we went to the staffroom and have remedials and I sat under your table. please don't leave!
i need you for maths and many more ! thank you ;DD

SELAMAT HARI RAYA!!!!

Oh yes...I am here to clear some cobwebs which my blog has been collecting over the past few months. It was not that I was lazy to blog ..there were times when the fingers itched to update but then , I somehow could not put down my thoughts in words ... and would then just leave it as that .

Life's been pretty alright , alhamdulillah. Shit happens in school , of course , but I never let school stuffs bother me much anymore. I have learnt to leave sch issues behind once I step out of the school gate. . I honestly think this is a skill which one can only 'master' after a few years. I still remember what a 'wreck' I was in the few initial years in the service, whereby my free time were spent mostly on lesson preps and markings etc etc ... Now I have learnt to let loose a little.

I am home now though , to finish up e EOY markings n oral gradings (pardon the irony but this one no choice ) while my parents are out Hari raya-ing. They are distributing my sis' wedding cards as well. It struck me then that my sis would be getting married in a month's time. Yeah. How would it affect me? OH well...e future BIL would be moving in with my family which means I would / should be confined to my room more often than ever. No more bermudas/ tiny tees in the house, no more lepak-ing and sprawled in front of the TV... no more markings all over the living room. I am considering getting a TV for my own room but on the other hand, the fiance has a full TV set on his own ...then when we get married ( which is not so long from now), we would have two TVs....so like waste money like that....I think I will take quite some time getting used to having another new person in the house. NOt that I am not welcoming him , just that there are going to be a lot of adjustments , I supposed. I am already rather reserved as it is.

House hunting is starting . I can't wait :-p

As the year end approaches, I can't help but feel sad that Rat and Jali are leaving . I really am gonna miss them ever so much... Rat , wait for me ok...six months only....

Anyway, I ahve decided to do something to my multiply site. It is still rather plain but I guess there is where I am gonna store my photos (unless the lazy bug strikes) ....
