hmm its been bout 2 weeks since i last blogged...
wat happened?
well, jus tat ive been super busy these days...
hav many units scheduled for lessons these few weeks.
in fact it nvr got finished somehow
when 1 was over, another 1 popped up.
yeah
no time to rest.
last fri evening i had to do my second guard duty.
all i did was stand at some spot for 2 hours 3 times
slept for like only 4 plus hours
den finished at 9am,
rushed to bbdc to get my provisional driving license,
den rushed back home to sleep
den woke up at 12 for a lesson at 130 at clementi camp on e same day.
yup super duper tiring...
n now i've got my hands busy again this week trying to teach lessons.
today my senior had a quarrel with some company today.
it was his 1st time teaching there n problems arose asap.
haha
well, mayb becoz he wasnt tat familiar with e scenarios ard here coz he came frm e offshore island pulau tekong.
yeah, e style of teachin is diff.
over there, u r king, wateva u ask them to do, they hav to follow.
over here at this forsaken camp of lim chu kang,
where e mono intakes of sch dropouts/bengs/ite bla bla blas all converge to form a unit.
well, he tried to discipline them by, well, e usual physical punishments.
n since they were already well-versed in all these exercises,
i roughly think they were havin fun being punished instead!
since my senior couldnt really control e class, he started hurling abuses here n there, trying to instill fear into them, but...
well it turned out otherwise.
tats where ME came into e picture...
well,
my senior n some soldier were already at loggerheads, with e aura of i-really-wanna-whack-u-into-bits surrounding them both...
yeah,
me n another officer literally tried to pull them apart but my senior jus shrugged me off...
somehow i sensed tat he knew wat he was doin n so i trusted him.
til finally i got a chance to say my piece.
PHEW!
yeah...
here comes e backgrd story:
i have been teaching them for e past 3 lessons,
n all this while i did not punish them even when they made much noise n i couldnt control them.
yeah
but coz of tat im happy tat at least i noe i had a connection with them.
aft i asked my senior to relax,
i began to talk to e men, my trainees.
guess wat they said,
"instructor, we see face one."
n
"we prefer you to teach us, instructor."
wah, i tell u,
e feeling is THERE man!
i was quite overwhelmed by wat they said...
haha
truthfully, i did...
so yeah, i came up with a cock n bull story to appease them of their sufferings and yeah, i hope they accepted it.
e best part comes here:
when i addresed them,
they replied with a super loudest ever "YES INSTRUCTOR!!!"
i den boosted their morale abit more before i handed e class back to my senior.
n,
when he addressed them, they replied with a much much softer shout!
woah,
den i tested them again,
n they shouted super loud again!
wah,
super biased man, i tell u.
but i really pity my senior.
guess i hav to teach them again tml ya?
even though i hav another lesson going on concurrently...
oh well, wat can i do,
they REALLY DO like me!
=]
oh yeah,
i jus got my PDL on sat,
so by tml onwards,
my riding lessons will b taken out to e public roads.
previously could only ride in e school premises...
oh well, i hope God will help me again!
very scared tat i'll screw up n spend lotsa time n money again!
haha
may e LORD help me!
