Today was hectic..
My dad got some updated internet thingy, now everything is different on my screen including the font on my blog. It's not annoying me yet, but it will soon.
Today was hectic.
The students had exams. I'd say more but I'm not allowed to discuss the details of my work or any specific student(s) to other people, and definitely not post them up on the net for all to read .. although I very much want to share some details. Let's just say that today was the first time I was ever "threatened" by a student. Not in a bad "I'm going to shoot you" way, but still in a not so nice way.
2 more days till I'm DONE.
CURRENT MOOD: Yay it's the weekend!

Don't fight with students or you might get yourself on the Toronto Star...
Everyday you call me and everyday, I miss your call. Everytime I call you back, your crazy sister complains that she's on the phone and that she'll let you know that I called after she's done with it. Your crazy sister reminds me a lot about you at that high-school time...

Assalaamu Alaikum :)
Aww, I'm sorry you had a rude encounter with a student. But unfortunately, those things happen. By the way, who would ever DARE to be rude with you?! craziness.
(I still think you and Nauman should keep a time to speak with one another and stick by it!)

Nauman, hehe I know.. but by the time my sister gets off the phone and gives me the message, I'm too tired. She does remind me a lot about how I was in high school!
Squeeky, I know eh, who would DARE to be rude to me!! Well either way, the student was suspended.. but at the time it was definitely scary :S

Thank you for reinforcing my decision not to be a teacher. :D
Just kidding, but that kid doesn't deserve a suspension, he/she deserves a good spanking.

Asmaa: The kid totally deserved to be suspended! But he could use a good spanking too (from a parent.. not me).

Some students are HORRIBLE! I don't ever remember them being as awful and disrespectful as they are these days! Last week one of my students threatened to slit another student's throat, HOW Horrifying is that! I'm having a crazy time with the special ed. kids because they don't listen and they cuss and swear a million times in one period and undermine your authority. The only way I'm really getting through to them is showing them that though I'm a teacher I'm not perfect, and they seem to be responding well to that. Students are tricky, though your heart really goes out to them and you try to help them they should not EVER EVER pass certain boundaries. 'Liya my dear, I hope you're well.

Unfortunately in most professions you do get those sort of ups and downs.
I'm in the legal field, and everyday I get some disgruntled client calling.
But you have to deal with it with calmness and patience.
And if that goes balls up, thank goodness for having a supervisor who can help out!

Belladonna: You're right, and thank goodness for vice principals as well :D
