I think I can really get used to teaching in a JC. Its the second day already and it's just getting more and more fun. The day is slack (I only have 9 tutorials a week!!) and the students are great! They are so interactive during the lessons (in a good way) and are so quiet. I din even have to raise my voice once throughout the lesson. Hahah, hopefully my 2K and 2A will also be like 2C. I am sure I am gg to miss teaching in NJ. Hopefully I can apply here again during term 3!

Just finished my first lesson with my class 2C. I have to say that this class 2C is so much quieter than my previous class 2C. All were quiet (really quiet) and super well behaved. I was expecting some people to talk amongst themselves, but I din catch anyone doing that at all. If my JC knowledge is good, I can really get used to teaching in NJ. But of course, my knowledge of econs is super darn low, not to mention the fact that I had forgotten most of the stuff that I could even remember. I mean, even I was surprised to get an A for Econs for A levels. I really dun noe much stuff. Even a simple chapter like Elasticity of Demand proved to be tough for me. I think I really have to read up more on Theory of Production and Costs today so that I will not screw up my tutorial tmr.

And NJ students, like before, are really very active in learning. I am already giving extra coaching for students tmr. When I was in NC, I had to literally beg students to come for extra lessons. It's such a bliss to be teaching here. If I was smarter. And if I could at least know someone in this entire school. I dun even dare to walk out of my cubicle!!

Can't believe it, actually sitting in the NJC staffroom right now. Kinda got a stint as an econs relief teacher here somehow, but I am not feeling really too good at the moment. I see a lot of familiar faces (teachers) but most of the teachers that taught me had left, so I practically know no one here. So lonely, dunno wad to do right now while waiting for the bell to ring for morning assembly.

And the worst thing is that I have only slept for 2.5 hours last night!! Cause I was tasked with teaching Theory of Cost and Production, which is my most dreaded chapter. Spent hours trying to find out what the hell is the MC curve, AFC curve, law of diminishing returns, returns to scale and a million other formulas. Thanks anyway, to Shufen and Soo Chin for helping me with all the concepts!!

Okie, gg for my first NJ morning assembly as a teacher!! Not too excited though, dunno who to stand with later

Just finished tuition with Ashwynn. He really saps all the energy out of me. So darn tired now. But still had the energy to meet up with Hui Chuan for dinner at Cartel. Kinda regret my actions now, having just realised how much fatter I am compared to 3 months before. Okie, I am gg to start running tmr. No matter wad. Even if it rains, I am gg to run in the rain. No pain, no lose (weight).

Symponic Winds haven replied me yet. But I got accepted into Mus'Art Wind Orchestra instead. What a turn of events. Not too sure whether I will agree, cause Mus'Art is so much better and more prestigious than Symphonic Winds, so a little stressed at the moment. Nvm, shall take some time to think abt it.

Oh yes, NJ called back, so I am officially gg to relief teach Economics at NJC. Hahah, can't believe I am actually gg back to teach Econs, esp when I was like one of the worst students there academically. Had to see the principal and undergo counselling in the past summore. Rather stressed now. Was told that I would be teaching Cost of Production. All my average cost, marginal cost, marginal propensity to consume, implicit and explicit costs, economies of scale... if the students were to question me, I am sure gg to get stumped. Die Die. This time round sure lose face!

Was looking thru my old photos, and oh gosh, I have grown a lot ('a lot' is two words, not 'alot') fatter since I orded!!

Damn sad now.. used to have such an angular face in the past. Now, I just look ballooned with a pauch sticking out. This is really bad. I must start to lose some weight, before I turn back into the old me. Forgot how I used to look like again? Fret not, look below.

Woah.. after havin a gazillion problems with blogger.com, I finally can upload photos! Hahah, so decided to upload the Birdpark photos, before it doesn't work again. Heh.
