To Skip or Not To Skip?
Hey ! Wanna pon school or not!
A common phrase in my school. Christians and non-Christians alike do it. It looks like an in thing! A thing to do! Something FUN! Exciting!
Afterall, we are really tired...not motivated...we do not have the mood to study. We don't like the Facilitator anyway. It's the last few days of school.
My favourite: EVERYONE IS DOING IT!
I just can't believe how selfish people can be honestly. Look at all the pathetic excuses given just for the real reason: I don't feel like going because I want to have fun and I could not care less about that old hag that chants things I don't understand in class.
Marvelous! WAY TO GO!
I respected teachers quite a fair bit. I have watched different kinds of teachers from primary school till now. Good ones , bad ones , fantastic ones, not so fantastic ones and also fantastic for the wrong reasons ones. But I really respect them all. No matter how big a failure they are, I really respect them.
How they spend everyday trying to build and grow a bunch of noisy insolent ingrates. I don't blame teachers who cannot teach. Some just wanted to teach but was unable to control the class... it's really saddening to see how they dread each day. Some dread so much that the resort to bad attitude in class...which did nothing but to worsen their conditions.
I wonder...do those students ever thought that they are actually shattering someone's dreams? I met quite a few friends who wanted to be teachers when they grow up. I can imagine them picturing a joyful moments of close relationship in their classes.....build and nuturing....having lots of fun and laughters. I wonder....how many of those dreams were shattered. How many teachers who entered the education ministry filled with hope ended up as screaming wrecks who were scarred so much that they can never be a good teachers ever again?
I will always give my respect to teachers no matter how bad they are. One reason. They have put so much into to it and they have taken one of the most cruel jobs available. Knowingly or unknowingly place their dreams , hopes and aspirations on the line. They are noble to me.
Of course people who say there are teachers who are there just for the money. I agree there are but I strongly disagree against that as an excuse.Some were once teachers who had their dreams shattered . Therefore bitter and went through their career lifelessly. I also don't belive that for one bad kind of teacher, you'll need to make life difficult for all teachers that have the slightest traits that you do not like.
I like this quote:
I rather make an error giving to someone who don't need it than to make an error by not giving to someone who needs it.
I reshaped it.
I rather make a mistake by giving respect to those who don't deserve it than to make a mistake not respecting those who deserve it.
