2011 arrived with love and blessings from family and friends (and an iphone4 that took us an entire morning to queue for). it's the start of another year, and hopefully a better one!
i don't wish to dwell into "how busy" or "what's coming" for my new role in school and the math committee, i just want to live each day as it is. whatever that requires me to do, i'll just do it. don't get me wrong, i'm not promoted or watsoever, i've just been nominated to be a research activist (i.e. doing research on a teaching method for P2 maths) for the school. won't be in school on Mondays and Fridays cos i'll either be at MOE HQ doing some modules or at TN for networking sessions. nomination has its many reasons - the most impt of which was, this position was initially taken up by another teacher who's due to deliver in march. since the project would take a yr to complete, and she would be away on maternity leave then so it was passed on to...strangely, me - a beginning teacher.
the honour or not, i don't wanna think too much. afterall, i've already told my HOD twice that i'm planning for a family this yr and she insisted that it's alright. so......i'm cool too.
2010 was a year when everything settled into place. adapting to a life wif my husband at home, adapting to school, meeting new colleagues turned friends now, managing a bunch of pupils (esp 1 wif anger management problems), building relationships wif my in-laws, catch-ups wif friends......etc. life has been good so far and i'm happy wif the way it is now.
it's the 3rd of Jan today and school reopens tomorrow. having mixed feelings...but i know that i've played enough for the hols and it's time i get my butt moving. so yes, i do look forward to school and bring it on, 2011!
happy new year to all :)
