Feeling high
Hi hi,
13 July 06 - the day we are officiated as t'chers. Nothing much to comment about the ceremony except that t'chers cannot sit still for too long. Our gowns kept us from misbehaving, but we were all wishing that it would all end soon.
But there were 4 highlights for me on this morning. One, getting to see most of the wonderful gang once again, where we exchange hugs and well-wishes and of course kodak moments. A pity we could not get any class pictures taken in either CS's. Some of us had to rush off. Sigh...
Two, getting to meet dear mummy of the twins again. I was truly glad to see her and would certainly throw a tantrum there and then should she elude my camera. :P But, hmmm, the picture turned out really superb. :D
Three, catching a glimpse of our tutor in his gown too. That was a first. :)
Four, catching a glimpse of other acquaintances (service learning mates, content upgrade mates, elective module mates, TP mates etc) smiling into the video-camera, a sign that all is well with them. I sincerely wish everyone all the best in their journey on this path we have all chosen at this point of our lives.
That's it... Oh, decided to treat myself to a sports jersey of my favourite footballer, on the way home. Then, rushed home to get all the distractions out of the way so that I could get every piece of work at hand done. Needed to start the next day with a nil 'to-do' list. While the day away from work offers a happy day away from the routine, we have to bear the consequences of having piles of work to go through and suffer some aches on our arms with the number of inevitable ticks and crosses we have to imprint.
True enough, been working on those piles that grew taller as the day progressed, though they did not grow to the desired maximum height, which means that we have to double as debt collector, or the ultimate naggy mother hen/broken record (whichever you prefer), to chase after those who owed us stuff, over the next few days. Sigh.... And by close of the day, we were talking about having forklifts and vans to drive those books home to continue with our ticking and crossing tasks. Don't you just hate those heavy activity books? Sigh... Next week is a heavy week (induction plus various duties) and hence not much work can be done. So, got to finish ticking/crossing as quickly as possible.
Amidst the sense of euphoria from overdose of the ticking/crossing activity, was a meeting to get my other tasks assigned to me. Hmmm... Maintaining our audio library. Wow, the perfect excuse to get into idolising mode again. :P Getting some avid reader programme going starting Sept and buying prizes. Another perfect excuse to do a bit of shopping? Hee... No wonder I am high today. Love the feeling of having lots of new and exciting stuff to do. They keep me going. Or was it going thru the rites of passage yesterday?
