My Sweet Spot.

Max Lucado's "Cure for the Common Life" has been inspiring and at an apt timing. I've always wanted to live an uncommon life for the glory of my Lord and Saviour. The book has been talking about finding your sweet spot and enjoying every moment of it.

I'm discovering my sweet spot day by day. With the attachment to the school at hand, I feel happier than ever. Tired no doubt, but happy. I love people. I love students. I hope that one day I will be a teacher that students respect and love and trust.

I started out rather fearful of how it'd be. But I'm learning loads, from the teachers, from my fellow attachees, from life. It's exciting. I might have to wake up before dawn breaks each morning. I might go nuts doing the paper work. I might have to take the yawns and moans and disinterest from some students. But. I will be a teacher.

I am not disillusioned by what I see. In fact, today has been a bad day. The vice-principal saw me leave school the moment the bell rang. (I was rushing to buy stuff for a school event. That she probably didn't know.) I was rushing home to jog away the teachers' cellulite but ended up over-rushing, leading to a rather nasty fall right in the middle of the road. I am tired. Yet, I am excited!!! LALALA!!

Ahhh. MacDonalds. I'm loving it!

I've been here for the past 2 hours and more. My first proper access to the Internet in about a week. It's been very strange. Feel a little out of touch with the world without both the Internet and the telephone (the former used much more extensively than the latter usually). I still have my handphone. Yet, it's just a straaaaaaaaaange feeling for my dear lappy to be turned on without those green bars indicating wireless connection and to realise I don't have a telephone set in the house!

Feels good to be clearing out those emails and finding out stuff about my attachment and doing the online module preference exercise and what-nots. Finally. And yes. Now I can go back home and...watch TV. My favourite past time of late. Yup, there's nothing much else to do now before the attachment begins.

I'm excited!

Lalala. My thoughts are so random because I've got much more to say, but I think I shall go. Just thought I'd leave a message on my blog so Blogger knows that I'm alive and kicking! WOOOHOO!!
