the other side of the glass door

so i've been on school attachment for 2 weeks now! it's been a pretty good experience so far, and i guess as a student when i looked for a teacher in the staff room, i would wonder what goes on in the nice little comfy air conditioned cubicles they they had in there.

two weeks into the job, one thing's obvious.  after school as a student, i would want to go out (ok fine, i'm just pretending i had many friends to go out with).  now, i just want to go home.  and the feeling gets stronger as the week passes.  so yesterday, i left school, took the bus and immediately went home, no lunch no time wasting.  then i just did...nothing.

seriously though, i've really been quite inspired by the teachers there.  it's one thing to be able to teach a subject, it's another to teach 2 or 3 different ones.  and it's another to teach them to different levels. and it's yet another to teach them to kids of different abilities.  so it's been pretty amazing to see them in action, doing their thing and making it look easy.

some things i've learnt.  that canteen food's cheap, but not always good.  that there's a difference between home and a home.  that we all have different needs.  that 5 years make A LOT of difference.  that things have changed a lot.  that some things never change.  and that teaching is easier and more difficult than i thought.

cheers to another two weeks!

stats stats

ok so i only *just* found out you can find out stats about your blog! how nice of blogspot! i'm a little addicted to it i think.  must be an ego thing sigh.  i like check it maybe twice a day.

did you know i have readers from latvia and germany? muahahahaha *proud beam*. ok fine it's only 2 page views, so they probably came by, found it boring, then left.  sigh.

but stats are still cool!
