First Post of 2018

happy 2018 to all my readers! 

tomorrow is the first day of school, and i really have this feeling of dread. it is no joke when you have 1 month of holiday, getting to spend precious family time with yuanze and darling everyday, and the next day you are back to work. i am so going to have withdrawal symptoms, no matter how strong or how positive i am. 

2018 will be going to be a big change at my workplace. a VP is leaving, which is a pity, because i always look up to him for being so inspirational and so charismatic. he has the ability to turn a meeting room with 80 sian ji bua teachers into 80 happy and not that sian ji bua anymore teachers. that is the ability that he has. 

my own HOD is also leaving, which is also a pity. she has been a big sister to all the teachers, guiding them and giving them support. the school will definitely miss her. 

the ict HOD and the lower sec year head will also be leaving. some teachers are also leaving. this is the biggest turnover rate i have ever experienced. 

this year i will be the form teacher of a sec 4 normal academic class. i will still be the wushu teacher in charge. and i am still inside the discipline comm (OMG I REALLY CANNOT BELIEVE THAT I AM IN DISCIPLINE FOR THE 3RD YEAR RUNNING). 

and i have also just volunteered to be the chief presiding examiner again for o levels 2018. it is really a good avenue to earn milk powder money. 

this year i want to be a wonderful father, wonderful husband, wonderful son, wonderful son in-law, wonderful eldest brother, wonderful friend, wonderful colleague as well as a wonderful teacher.

i wish everyone to have a wonderful 2018!
