-satisfaction through professionalism

w0oo0osSAaa... monday blues? yeah had a little of tt today.. was almost late for sch even.. luckily i ironed my clothes last nite..
m0rning assembly was quite g0od.. seriously.. cept for the section when lalitha n woeiling talked abt the exam procedures.. dun think such things can b drilled into the thick skulls of our students our tt 1/4hr durin assembly.. well had to go back to class n rearrange the tables for the class for exams.. chose to do it for the class.. so i stepped in, told 2H to take their bags n scram to the back of the classrm b4 i started arranging.. cant imagine how long it would take if i were to allow the class to settle it themselves.. haiz.. 2H..

i went to 3EX 2day again to relief candy.. not bad.. i went thru "examiners expectations" n "material control".. think they're able to comprehend wif me at wad i'm driving at.. forgot their exam paper2 question paper.. had to rush back to the staffrm to get it n den distribute in the art rm.. went thru the questions wif.. think they more or less get a feel of wad question INTERPRETATION means.. i urged them to continue wif their paper1 aft the explanation, of which i went thru guoqiang's work.. had a tiff wif him last week.. glad he knew where he went wrong.. meanwhile, i over some1 mentioning cabbage n also saw my black pen being used by a student to render the bug.. as such, i went back to the staffrm again to retrieve my portfolio n batik.. the students were amazed at the art piece.. n i showed them the cabbage i painted n the crab i rendered in ink.. they were truly impressed.. i took this opportunity to encourage them to try out different mediums while they still can in sec3.. sorry to badmouth candy, but i explained tt i disliked papercutting due to the messy process.. several students agreed wif me.. but candy is onli g0od in papercut.. n will b likely to push these students to complete their 'o' lvl coursework in papercut.. these students 'bleahed' at tt idea.. haha..

den a student mentioned tt his pretty good in photoshop, frm wad he learnt in sec2.. so i took his enquiry whether he can complete coursework in photoshop n i'm totally like "YES OF COS U CAN!!" i moved on to mention abt the coursework sharing regardin tt 300/100 marks corporate design work.. n tt he can move in this direction.. den the students eyes lightened up.. think its startin to seive into their thinkings tt they really mus try out a variety of mediums.. essential in art yea..

aft recess was 2B again.. urged them to complete as much as possible as its graded for mid-year.. some of the works are really g0od..went round helpin several of them.. most vivid was carol n daphne.. n hmmm... jackyln yea.. her basketball.. they were also impressed at how tt minor touch up can brighten their piece of work.. goin like "waaaaa~" this are the kinda of words tt makes an art teacher elated n proud of his/her skills..

left sch right on time to head for the gym.. great workout there.. generally, a well spent day.. end -23rd April 2007-
