Sabo je lahhh..

Ughh.. nape la dpt student 'baik ati' sgt?

To friends who follow my blog (like I said, sape yg follow je tau.. so dengan perasan cam org len ade bace blog ni, if you don't understand it, please bear with me huhu..), you might remember the 'real teacher' I was complaining about last year.

Jap nak cari ONE of the links (I'm sure mmg byk ngate this cikgu last year haha..)

Haaa, you can find it --> Here

Well, this year, I thought I was fortunate enough to not bump into him too much. Two Saturdays ago, he was teaching the class adjecent to mine and he glanced in my class while exclaiming, "Ramainye students.." Grrr..

1st: My class tak ramai pun, around 20 je. Nak ngate sy la tu kelas tak ramai student.. I LIKE SMALL CLASSES OKAY! Piss off!!!

2nd: Nape sibuk ngan my class?!?! Suke ati sy la nak ajar diorg camne ke ape ke.. diorg suke je! No complaints except, "Nape cikgu tak kawen lagi?" or "Nape cikgu pendek sangat?" which obviously takde kene ngene dengan care sy ngaja whaaaattt?

Then earlier on, he was teaching another class the same time as me, and mase balik I was telling my boss about the 'intruder' incident. I wanted to scream, "Mind your own business!" when he mencelah kate, "Takkan takde bodyguard nak escort kot.." with muke poyo cam bagus!

Grr..

Three days ago, he was teaching another class and somehow, I always become defensive whenever I see him. Like on that particular day, I made sure my class was fun haha.. made sure HE KNEW EVEN IF I WASN'T A REAL TEACHER, MY STUDENTS LIKED ME.. even if they didn't haha.. but that day, I practically forced my students to have fun in class. And luckily, even I enjoyed the class that day. I didn't wanna hear him criticizing me again.

Then my favourite class just now. I walked around the class giving personal attention to those who needed them while the other's did their work I had assigned them. Then outta the blue, one student asked me, "Cikgu, klau tolong bina masjid, dapat pahala kan?"

Knowing that all of them are in the 'noticing the other sex' phase and assuming they wanted to matchmake one of their friends, I gave them my usual retort.. "Korg ni cukup umor pun blum, sibuk nak binakan masjid org.. belajar dulu!"

"Tapi elok kan cikgu? Kite tolong org?"

"Dah jawab soklan sy bg tu?"

"Cikgu jawab la dulu.."

..and bla bla bla.. sy malas nak layan!

Class resumed.. for about 10 minutes. Then the same boy asked me a question about what I had just taught so I explained it again to him, even though I was certain he had understood earlier. Then..

"Cikgu.. cikgu ni ajar same la cam Cikgu ***** ajar!"

Okay.. what is this? I just shrugged while trying to ignore the annoyance at hearing that teachers name. Then..

"Cikgu.. cikgu kenal kan Cikgu *****? Dia okay kannn.."

I was like.. duh!

"Alaaa, cikgu.. takkan tak kenal kot.. ke saje buat tak kenal?"

Luckily, I had mastered my 'I-dunno-what-you're-talking-about' look that could fool teenangers (for my friend, thats another story la kan.. but to budak², bleh la nak tipu!)

"Takpe cikgu, nanti kami kenal kan.."

What the hell?

Then, of all people, SE pun mencelah.. "Hang ni nak bina masjid pun, jgn la kat sini.."

S***! You mean THAT was what all this was about?

Hell..

I could just strangle that boy!!

Sabo Ayu.. sabo!

P/S
Didn't have the heart to marah budak tu. Sebabnye, tetibe je bile tengok muke sy yg berlakon blur, dia ubah topik. Tau dia kate ape:

"Cikgu, skrg kan cikgu A**** (my AlMashoor friend) dah tak garang dah. Dia siap puji sy lagi. Dia kate, sejak sy tuition ni, dah makin rajin sy."

Padehal sbnrnye dia dah lame je tuition haha.. Then untuk kaver malu sbb dia suke kene puji kot, dia kate plak..

"Sy tau la sy pandai cikgu, tapi tak sangke cikgu A**** nak ckp camtu" <--In the gaye 'sy-tak-heran-pun-kene-puji' wpun muke dia nmpk happy giler.. "Ni cikgu la ni, tak pasai² orang kate sy rajin skrg sejak belajar ngan cikgu.."

He didn't look at me the whole while saying this, he was doing his work. But I'm glad for it coz I was smiling cam orang gile haha.. I really do wanna make a change in them. And if this is a step he took because of me, I'll be glad enough.. and I'll promise to help him all along the way.

..AND I'm gonna tell Ani, thanx! For making someone she told me was a hopeless case, happy! Really happy!

Alhamdulillah.. :)

Just coz I'm bored..

Yup.. I'm bored!

Been staring at the literature review I was hoping to update but can't think of a single thing to add.. and lets not talk of the journals, a.k.a my-sleeping pills, that I haven't read yet for this purpose.. *sigh*

*******

Know the picture above? :D

Okay, once again, taken by my phone which in realtime is not quite old though not quite new.. but in technology years, is already considered ancient. A few months ago (must be before August last year as I quite remember I still had a housemate then), I wrote about the birds nest in the 'tree' I couldn't seem to get rid of that has 'grown' through the cracks of cement under my porch. Well, lets just say, this is the fourth time its happening.

I don't understand whats so tempting with this chosen location haha.. but I guess the mother bird knows best. I can't even take a peek as she's always nearby and a mere glance would make her chirp like crazy while watching me from the gate or the clothesline or the bouganvillea (I'm certain I've spelt that wrong!) plant outside. Alahai mak burung, sy bukan pembunuh anak burung maaaa..

Anyway, her 3 eggs have just hatched. 3 very pink lil' bird with no feather which I unsuccessfully captured with my phone camera..

Can you see them?

*******

On Sunday, I went to kak Wahid's reception with Mama, Adi, Izati and Iskandar. Met with Yun, Sid and Adik there.. my other friends from our batch were nowhere in sight. Even Arif and Aizul who told me they were coming were MIA.. oh well!

Anyway, knowing my phone won't be able to take 'respectable' pictures in the dimmed Kompleks Masyarakat Penyayang hall, I asked Izati to take some with her phone. Ye, yeee.. sy tak betulkan lagi kamera sy!

So this is kak Wahid during the 'makan beradat' (Mind you, this is still a picture from a phone.. not from an actual camera)

..and this is her during the cake-cutting ceremony!

Congrats kak Wahid :) I'm gonna miss going to your place whenever I like.. but rest assured, you parents won't be lonely as I've self-appointed myself as their new daughter heheh..

*******

Yesterday plak went back to Abah's for The Discussion (Actually, ade byk bende tak puas hati di sini but I'm trying to ignore them in hopes that those feelings would go away quietly.. and to Adi, takde kene ngene ngan you tau! :) Don't worry!)

But first, we did a suprise birthday celebration for Mama. She's 51 now hehehe.. dah tuaaa! Me, Adi and Ikram went to buy the cake with Izati wanting something chocolatey and Adi wanting something cheese-cakey. Ikram wanting one not too cheese-cakey.. adeh! But we managed to agree on a choc cheese cake.. with even layers of chocolate moose and cream cheese to satisfy Ikram and I chose I sugar doll to put on it.

..though at last the sugar doll dapat kat Annisa who can't resist anything pink.

Then waited for Abah to start The Discussion but he slept right after lunch (Umi made some bihun sup!) Me and Adi started to nudge each other then Mama woke him up and he went to perform his solat first. Then guess what?

..Adi n Ikram plak had a lay-in and went to sleep. And Abah joined them after his solat.. ceh! Sabo je laaa.. Ikan² paus tersadai di pantai hehe..

But in the end, the discussion went quite okay la.. except for the few things yg I tak puas hati. Doesn't it just bug you that people pretend to know you when they really don't?

*sigh*

Anyway.. now we'll be having something BIG to look forward to this September.. yeay! I've already had all sorts of plans in my head already hehe.. But lets keep it a secret first ek :)

*******

Lupe plak another thing: Remember my students, the twins I call Upin and Ipin?

Well, yesterday I had to rush from Abah's place to Jawi for my class. Managed to arrive on time.. yeay! Then I noticed only Afnan (Ipin) came to class (actually, half the class was absent which I think is due to the long weekend). I asked where Adli (Upin) was and he told me his twin had gone with his adopted father (long story!) to Johor so naturally he was left behind.

Then I asked him why he came, and he said, "Nanti kak Ros marah klau tak datang.."

To those who don't watch the cartoon, kak Ros is the garang eldest sister of the twins.. and while talking with my students, I realized, Ipin didn't really have a sister. This was when Ainina asked him, "Bukan tadi hang cakap kak Ros marah klau tak dtg? Klau hang takdak kakak, Kak Ros tu sape.."

He laughed cheekily while pointing at me, "Cikgu kite kan garang macam kak Ros.."

Aik..

Hahah.. ampeh tul!

A little too not over you

Yea yeaaahh.. tell me I like immature bubblegum pop song, and I WON'T care :p

Have actually tried to not like these kinda song, but I can't help it haha.. Go David Ar'chumel'ta :) :) :)

Song title: A Little Too Not Over You
Artist: David Archuleta

It never crossed my mind at all
That's what I tell myself
What we had has come and gone
You're better off with someone else
It is for the best
I know it is
But I see you
Sometimes I try to hide
What I feel inside

And I turn around
You're with him now
I just can't figure it out

Tell me why
You're so hard to forget
Don't remind me
I'm not over it
Tell me why
I can't seem to face the truth
I'm just a little too not over you

Memories suppose to fade
What's wrong with my heart
Shake it off let it go
Didn't think it would be this hard
Should be strong, moving on
But I see you
Sometimes I try to hide
What I feel inside

And I turn around
You're with him now
I just can't figure it out

Tell me why
You're so hard to forget
Don't remind me
I'm not over it
Tell me why
I can't seem to face the truth
I'm just a little too not over you

Maybe I regret
Everything I said
No way to take it all back
Yeah
Now I'm on my own
How I let you go
I'll never understand
I'll never understand
Yeah, ohhh..

Tell me why
You're so hard to forget
Don't remind me
I'm not over it
Tell me why
I can't seem to face the truth
I'm just a little too not over you

Tell me why
You're so hard to forget
Don't remind me
I'm not over it
Tell me why
I can't seem to face the truth
And I really don't know what to do
I'm just a little too not over you
Not over you, ooh.

Masih dalam dilema..

Patut kah sy membiarkkanye seperti ini..

Atau adakah ini lebih baik bg sy?

Uggg.. decisions².. making a mountain outta an ant hill are you, Ayu?
