oh no i went on a shopping spree again.
bank balance dwindled. :(

but on a happier note, i met up with my sec sch bestie, claudia!
shopping sure is a good way to catch up with each other!
i love these girly girly dates where we can shop leisurely, peep into every shop, try all e clothes we want, knowing that e other person will definitely wait and give constructive comments!
i'm going on a girly date again tmr! i love girlies! *hehe*

claudia just finished her practicum at nanyang primary.
told me some stories abt her teaching stint, her students etc.
i enjoyed listening to her stories. it kinda brought me back to e past when i was a student in uniform.
teaching is an honourable job.
i love my ex-teachers, who refused to give up on me and my classmates when we were at e stage of self discovery and were learning to rebel.
they didn't have to go through so much trouble for us.
i think they were at their wits end too. they scolded, sweet talked, shouted, hollered, tried using reverse psychology on us, but to no avail.
my class was a terror la. haa.
but we all turned out fine. :)

i would love to be a teacher, except for e part where we have to deal with parents.
i feel that it's becoming harder and harder to discipline students, with parents becoming increasingly protective.
in claud's case, she had to be extra careful, cos her students were all children of e who's who in society.
bankers, lawyers, surgeons and wat not. oh and ministers.
everyone has their own personal way of disciplining their child.
how much is too much to e parents?
it's silly to complain to e sch authorities that e teacher made your kid stand for e lesson cos he didn't do his homework.
i dunno. it's difficult, if u understand wat i mean.
i still believe in e saying: spare e rod and spoil e child.
that's why kids nowadays are so freaking spoilt silly.
parents pls pop by e market, or e mama store to buy some canes.
capital punishment, when used correctly has far-reaching effects.
go on, try it.

oh ya.. kids learn to make e canes disappear.
behind/in cupboards, under e beds, under e mattress, in between e old newspaper stack, down e rubbish chute, or directly out of e window.
personal experience when i was a kid. :) hehe.
