monday morning


at first, talking to them softly and treating them like "gems" make them think that you respect them. i did that last week until this morning. my patience has already eroded.

• one was shouting on the way back to class because his friends were disturbing him. i gave him a warning and ignored.
  
  
• one fell down knees first because his friend tripped him. i ignored as i considered it as one of their playful pranks.
  
  
• the guy who fell down punched his friend when the latter asked him to get into class quickly.
  
  
• the fallen guy came to class and showed his displeasure by kicking the table.
  
  

THAT WAS IT!!

I.BLEW.MY.TOP.

it was definitely not a pretty sight. i could no longer tolerate the nonsense.

worksheets were given out, boys were called to the back of the classroom to be disciplined.

apparently the boy who fell down didn't find it cool to apologise and also to accept apology. therefore he decided to walk away and ignored. it was only after a while he came to my table and apologise and fell asleep on his table.

• i have complain kings and queens who just cannot stop complaining about trivial matters.
  
  
• the class was no longer treated as a class but a circus instead.
  
  

at that point of time, i just feel like leaving the class stranded. it was already the peak.

lost my cool and all were asked to go back to their seats with fingers on their lips till the next lesson. no one to fidget around. no one to do anything. just the fingers on the lips and looking in front.

they were totally beyond control, summing up how bad my days were from last week.

im glad that its over. their teacher will be back tomorrow.

little boys are waaaaaay better behaved and cute.

let's travel to infinity
