Listening to: "Burn" by Usher
Mood: Angry, Unhappy & Stressed
ArGhHhHhhhHh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so angry & unhappy at work! I never tot i'd eva come to this stage in my career juz barely 2 yrs into my career. De ironic thing is it's not teaching dat's getting to me. In fact, my kids - being wif dem & teaching dem IS de BEST part of my career .... everything else ... pardon ... stinks. period.
i'm so overloaded @ work ... yet de people around me juz keep piling ... my various uppers pile & pile responsibilities ... those colleagues wif nothing better else to do make accusations or slander. how evil de human heart can be. =(
look @ wat i am juggling @ de moment ... i'm sure if u can even have a glimpse .. u'll faint.
1) Presiding Examiner for "O" levels
(so much admin & running around .. today being in school from 7am to 6pm - i only had a total of 40 min break --> lunch + 2 toilet breaks. NO rest @ all ... walk around @ inhuman speed)
2) Presiding Officer for General Elections 2005
(online elearning and test to be completed, attend 9 hour course, serve on polling eve & polling day)
3) Form Teachership
(cockpit admin for report book, update pupil profile with individal reports for each kid, file in MCs, School Mag $, all outstanding fees ... etc etc)
4) Girls' Brigade Uniform Group Teacher-in-charge
(budget proposal,CCA appraisal, 2005 plan, camp consent forms, letters for volunteers, inventory 2004, request from school to use school etc ...)
5) English Enrichment Program 05 Teacher I/C
(Met up with vendors, present proposal and budget)
6) English Department Web Mistress
(Redesign & update departmnt website)
7) English Department SEM Results Analysis
i'm sure i've missed out others but ...wat de heck ... on top of such a hellish day, dealing wif egoistic and MCP colleagues, i heard some horrid person thinks dat juz becoz i've 5 VALs in GB, i'm "very free". i feel like kicking dat idot ... woeva it is. =(
everyone who works closely wif me knows i demand a lot from myself whenever handed a responsibility. i dun like to depend on others & i always make sure i complete my duty and handle it in a spirit of excellence. those gossipy people should try & find something to do & stop bothering people like me who are already busy to de brink of madness! i simply dun understand why i attract so much gossip ... from imaginative students whom i dun even teach to mad colleagues whom i dun work wif ... *argh!*
i feel real dizzy already ... tomorrow still have to teach school by 7 & meet 2E1 to give out report book afterwards ... *faint from overloadedness* i repeat. i LOVE teaching & my STUDENTs. everythings else --> stinks.
