Had a nice talk with my second aunt today.
Talked about problems i faced in studying, pressure given by family, and problems coping with people beside me.
Dont really want to talk about it.
So, we talked about career. She works in MOE, and i happen to have a burning passion to become a teacher, so had a real enriching talk. She told me about the difference between a MOE teacher and a freelance teacher, and how the latter is not recognised as a trained teacher unless you were once studying in NIE. So in short, teachers not educated by NIE is not considered 'trained' -.-
Then realised my school is rather different, in a sense that there are quite a few teachers who are directly unemployed by the school, and not through MOE. Not all was from NIE. Ha, it opens a new route for me to choose in the future. Become an MOE teacher, do not have the freedom to choose a school i want to teach, and unable to teach for very long; become a freelance teacher, may or may not get a good job, but have the satisfaction of being able to become a super loyal teacher to the school, colleagues and students. Thats not the point. You just have the freedom to choose your path.
Then talked with my cousin who is taking biomedical course in university abroad. Insightful talk. She didnt take bio in secondary school, but took about biomedical in poly, and managed to enter university. Really, i salute her for that. Just that i simply dislike chemistry, and i do not have the talents to take up biology. Maybe i will just stay with my dear geography and physics=)
============================
Went to plaza to mug again today. Yep, rather...useful. Finished my physics past year papers...with a few questions undone -.- Totally give up on the chem paper, since i skipped like 3 questions out of every 4. Ask le i also gong gong(blur blur), so bad.
Youhao go bring wei ern there today. Then see wei ern big muscles very scared, cannot study le. So follow the girls to see derrick's autograph session. Not very bad, the "Bang Bang Tang"'s one is even worse(the fans were like screaming so bloodly loud, i stand in front as photographer also kia dao, my boss up there take vid also kanna sandwiched. bad experience for a fledging reporter like me)
Ok...back to topic. So fiona and chinsian decided to pangseh xinyu as she was super hardworking at taking photos, so we went back to study. Being the kind person i am, i decided to go back and get xinyu back. Ha, she actually went back herselves and we got walk different paths, end up leaving me blur blur again at the autograph venue.
Did their nanyang math textbook. Wa lao. so good. Next time i gonna borrow it from them to do.
I really got nothing to say now. Im just utterly disappointed, and appalled at what crap you had said to me. Totally. The rubbish that fell out of your mouth, eat them back.=================================
