Teachers (A poem about teachers)

Kringgggggg!
Selamat Pagi Cikgu!
Class, Good Morning, Sir!
Lao Shi Zao An! (老师早安)
Vanakkam.

Teachers.

They say, it is
a noble job with a modest pay.
As they service without delay,
to schools - far, far, far... away.
Ha, Ulu Bole?
Melinggan?
Long Pasia?
P1, P2, P3..
Hey! Don't forget the 10% from your basic pay!
BISP, dan tambang FREE... (BISP and transportation ticket is FREE)
bersyukur lah... banyak dah kena bagi. (Be grateful, already given a lot...)

erm... Thank You so much, MIE (LOL)

Teachers, are like Jack of all trades.
Managers, administrators, counselors, motivators, decorators, gardeners, friends,
just to name a few.

And...
Salesmen and saleswomen!
MLM of many kinds,
Promote products from A to Z,
Mau kain batik ada... (We have batik)
Minyak wangi pun ada... (Want perfume? We have it)
Macam macam ada! (You name it)
Buli bayar ansur-ansur bah! (Can pay by assurance)

Hei bro, mau trica juice? (Brother, want Trica Juice)
Barang bagus punya... (It's good thing you know...)
buli ba kalo ko... (OK 'bah if you).

But,
Unlike Jack,
still,
They are MASTERS of,
Pedagogy, Methodology, Psychology, Administration,
And... there is another one my friends.
HENTAM-LOGY!

Teachers,
are loaded with new stuffs.
New agendas,
New deals.
The agent of change, so to say.

LINUS, LINUS, LINUS!
Apa, Si Linus? Antah... macam blum datang lagi ba, (What, Linus? Don't know... like not arrived yet.)
Sana... di kantin ba. Minum Minum. (There... at the canteen, drinking.)

No, no, no!
Not that Linus!
Linus means,
Literasi dan Numerasi. (literation and numeration)
Salah satu program dalam sub NKRA. (one of the program in sub NKRA)
Atau, bidang Keberhasilan Utama Negara.
By the year 2012,
Semua pelajar Tahun 3, (All year 3 students)
boleh membaca dan mengira. (Can read and count)

Jadi... (So)
Kalau ada yang belum pandai membaca dan mengira? (If there is still someone cannot read and count)
Habislah, habislah kamu! Habislah sekolah! (Then, finish, you are finished, the school are finished!)

But,
we, teachers,
firmly believe,
we can achieve the Mission and Vision of PPD and KPI of our schools.

Because,
We are physically strong,
We are emotionally stable,
We are spiritually blessed.
And,
We work unconditionally.

All for one.
One PPD,
One State,
One Nation.
And, one for all.
The almighty God in return,
with bless all of us.

GURU PEMBINA BANGSA NEGARA.

Planned, or outplanned?

A little bit of my rants.

This Friday we will be having a reflection at the school - Not sure if it is compulsory but might take a chance to go to the city as I have a lot of things to do, especially with my affairs about money and result.

Since there is something to do at the day, therefore everything for this week's lesson has well planned. I will be giving the students an exam and preparation on the role play as there are plenty of time, no?

Plan before the rain, 未雨绸缪, eh? I don't think it is working - or you may say it is predictable.

This is what has come out of expectation. The admin (lazy to mention) allows us to leave at Friday (well it oughta to, as we are not going for vacation) but we are required to leave after 10 - hey, the trip is taking like... 2 to 3 hours, and we need to attend the Saturday's event!

Let's say if I am moving at 10 that time, then I can do nothing, but waste money for just attending the reflection, and then go back and prepare for the next day's event. I planned to go to the admin office of my U (Fridays, and they are good on taking breaks, from 11 to 2.30, if I am correct?) to settle off everything in one go (changing the result is only valid in the first month) and F*** that, almost every Saturday there are events in the school. I don't mean that I hate that... no. But at least give me a break for me to settle the 'so-called personal event' - it is important for me.

With the time constraint, what's the point I waste almost RM 100 just for the reflection, and I am not get paid, yet pay for everything including my 'personal matters' in the U if I cannot do so? I also need to get some materials and perhaps take some time to release my tension off. Planned to get a leave on Friday and settle everything off - it is not easy to go to KK when you live in 'outskirts'.

I am a human, not a cyborg or robot.

Practicum life - football match

Last Sunday my school had football competition at Sipitang district. 8 teams from the area, including my school, joined the competition. It was based on knock-off competition. I am playing at the right side, including RB, RM, RSW, and also RW. Well... I am playing with the No.6 jersey.


The first match is our school, SMK Padang Berampah versus Oranje Army (I think it is the Western Zone...)
The first match we were against Western Area and we had a comfortable win, 6-3. My ratings from the match was 5.5, with one offiside and a foul.
The morning match. The players are enjoying and discussing for the strategy. The man, second right was an veteran player that assists a lot in the match.

Meanwhile at the evening, we were are semi finals and against PPD. A tough match, yet we won 2-1. Rating for the match was 5.0 as I performed no attacks and also a foul.
The linesman is from our school. The student that picks the ball - also.
The evening match. The dirt and the rain makes there are some performance problem on the match.
