I love Slack!

You won't believe how slack a day I had at school today. Because Mdm Wong is back, I no longer have to do her timetable. Mdm Wong, by the way, a nice person. Physically, she looks unexpectedly better than I expected, she has this regal appearance. So I only did 4 hours of babysitting today, ie, go in the classes I was given and made them do work. The Sec 4 class was like funny cos as I passed 4D, the ppl were like going 'yay' cos they thought I was going to relief them. But the class I was supposed to babysit was 4C! So when i passed their class completely, there was like sounds of dismay. 4C was happy to have me because having me around means it's a free period. Come on, I'm a student too, we all know what free periods mean right?

4C had many people from different places. I met students from Cambodia, Java and Bali. There was a handsome student and he comes from Cambodia, he kept pestering me to guess where he comes from.

Me: Philippines?
Boy: OI, why you give me so low score? [I have no idea what lingo is this] When I ask other teachers, they say america lor.
[On hindsight, I can see why. He is really handsome with the typical Eurasion features, oddly though]
Me: Papa New Guinea? Haha. I know, Vietnam? Laos? Thailand? Sarawak? East Timore?
[They kept saying no after each country I named.]
Boy: Teacher, you so smart but your geography a bit lousy ah.

A lot of my students are whining now COS i'm not teaching them anymore. Not all though. Anyway, all of them so need to buck up after such a long break under me.
