i'm 1 week away from completing my 1st practicum @ SACPS.....it's been great so far...and am enjoying myself thoroughly with the students there. Bonding really well with them, and i'm really enjoying planning interesting and different lessons for them everyday...... much as it's extremely hard work on my part, lots of brain cells dying, sleeping late everyday while thinking, yet, seeing them enjoy their lessons is something that makes it all worthwhile......seeing that light in their eyes when they discover something new, seeing the joy on their faces when they've achieved something, that's just so rewarding.
it feels like i'm gonna be with them for the rest of the year.....but...sighz...sadly, i've to leave by Friday..... really really hope that i'm coming back next year, and that I'd be able to teach them again... =)
anywayz......planning for the camp is underway...this in addition to the prep for the retreat can get quite overwhelming.....i'm just hoping to be able to spend more time working with all these once i finish my last week of practicum.....
ah...my thoughts are all jumbled in my head, coz it's been more than a week since my last post.... i'm still seething about what i wrote in my last entry........but i shan't spoil my mood about such things, coz they're simply not worth my time. really. i have far better things to do. such things just convince me that my time back here is but temporary. as someone once told me, sometimes, we can't stay in one place for too long. when our time is up, it is up. we have to move on, and find another way to do His work. Much as such work should be voluntary and done out of love, yet, sad to say, human politics and emotion always get in the way, and at the end of the day, the one reason why we began working for God is all wrong. I think it's important that every once in a while we take a time out to take stock of our emotions and the reason why we're doing what we do.
busy baking right now, coz i want to give my students a little something before i go off. I also need to give my cooperating teachers a 'thank you' for all their patience, guidance and help..... of course, i'd need to give something to my ex-teachers too.....=) simply love the community here....i think nothing can beat the family feel at SACPS....... and that's why i wanna come back....
