Sekolah Kebangsaan Jitra 3, 4English, 4Science, 3Arts, those ~terms~ that I would not forget for the rest of my life.....
well, frankly speaking, I started this practicum with a bad feelings and bad impression, because I had heard many stories about the classes that I am going to face for those 2 months....
and one more thing, I could not stop thinking and missing my students from my previous school which is Sekolah Kebangsaan Bandar Baru Darulaman which I had my first practicum over there....
but who knows, the thing turn to the other way it should be....
I started to love this school, I love my students, the teachers and even the staffs over there....
and this is my first time to cry in front of the kids.... sigh....such a shameful incident....
and the worst part is I cried for two times in their class.
The first time was after my ~rentasan~, they quarrel because of a small matter....
I was so tired and frust and I finally collapsed in their class...
I told them I was disappointed with their attitudes....
and this is the first time we cried together as a ~family~....
The second time and the last time I cried in their class was during our farewell day...
I tried to sort out all their photos and show to them in a slide show accompanied by some farewell songs such as ~goodbye my friends, viva forever, mungkin nanti~, and I made myself cried again....
I cant control myself, tears keep on rolling down and I can't even utter a single word after the photo slide shows ended....
I need Carrie to help me to conduct the class and this time even the boys cried together with me....
we took our class photo and everyone's eyes was red and filled up with tears....
we hug each other and bid farewell to each other....
I miss them a lot and until now I still keep in touch with them...
They called and sms-ed me....
and of course, I do admit that I am a human being, and of course I can't escape from the act of ~favoritism~...
I use to hang out with few of my fav students and I am glad that we enjoy each outing together regardless of our skin's colour and religion.
I met their parents and I am glad that they do trust me as a ~teacher~, not as a ~orang cina~...
but sometimes, religion and culture might be a issue for us.....
for example, they are having their fasting month, so it is not suitable to bring them for any outing.....
and the gals plan to cook for me at my house....
I was like >.<'''.... ~kids cook for me????~ I don't even have any ingredients for them to cook as they wanted to cook for me and ~buka puasa~ together with me at ~my house~!!!
Luckily they canceled the plan as their were some objection from some of the parents.... They called me this morning and said sorry to me as they can't come to my house for this coming Thursday...
I was like~ breathed a sigh of relief~ when I heard bout that.... but the kids cried when they said sorry to me, I felt a bit guilty with that....
Anyway, kids... thanks for making my practicum such a sweet and unforgettable one!!
I love you all...
here are some photos to share....enjoy!!!
our class photo after crying in the class.....sob sob....

You'll make an excellent teacher, Tammy. ;-)
Wait, you are ALREADY an excellent teacher. Hehe. Really! Many teachers don't form that emotional bond with students, and you somehow managed to do it in a matter of weeks!
