work sucks

been working for more than a month now. all i can say is that work seriously sucks. it pretty much eats up you weekday life. leaving you with just 2 precious weekend days for everything else. if this is what adult life is like, i think i'm screwed. and if i dun like what i'm going to do in the future, i'm seriously screwed.

contrary to common belief, teaching primary sch kids are not as easy as it seems. i serious respect primary school teachers now. and i now know how pissed off a teacher can get from the naughty students in class. but what i do not understand is that teacher cant touch kids nowadays. thanks to all the screwed up, ultra protective, constantly complaining parents, students are a lot more screwed up than what it used to be. and i feel that parents play a major part. lets be freaking blunt here. parents of neighbourhood primary school kids cant be very well off. they are probably pretty screwed up to begin with. so why the hell are you inhibiting the teachers to do their best to improved your kids from ur screwed up genes with all your bullshit?

i can go on all day abt this kind of screwed up parents. take one example. there is this fat, selfish, naughty kid who plays cheats during games all the time (why am i not surprised). basically he is damn screwed up to begin with. the typical spoilt brat. he is always damn playful. always causing trouble, making others cry. one day he was throwing random stuff around while walking to dismissal assembly and was caught by the discipline master. so he was scolded and being such a typical spoil brat beancurd student, he went back crying to him mum. and his mum, for god knows why, went to reason with the discipline master. like wtf??!?!?! whats the parent's freaking problem. your kid is screwed up, teacher try to teach him, and u find fault with the teacher? its not like the teachers got some fetish and like to screw kids right. pls dun think along the 32yr old teacher screw 15yr old dude line. that is sick btw....

one minute i go brush teeth....

back...

the next incident happened to me. i was teaching pri 1 chinese. i know it sounds wrong. dun ask why. jus accept it first. so we got spelling one fine day. well not very fine for me. no day is fine day. anyways, spelling. so its the normal stuff. i gave the spelling, collect the worksheets. everything is routine. then next day form teacher gets a complain email. say his kid, did not finish his spelling, then his paper was snatched away by the group leader. and he wanna complain. hmmmm.... if only i can speak to the dad in person. i would like to give him a punch in the face and ask him to fuck off. and give his kid a good scolding too. his kid kept quiet throughout the spelling. i asked if everyone finished, answer was yes, i collect. that kid kept quiet throughout the entire process. he didnt speak when i asked if everyone finished, kept quiet when his group leader took his paper, and went crying to his dad. for fuck? my problem? fuck off. lets jus not say that spelling is come on, u think i can give you 1 entire hour to do 6 qns is it? and lets face it, if there can be students finishing the spelling paper in a minute, your kid is seriously slow dude. like seriously slow. i dun give a shit if he's like the only grandson in the family. all i can see is that he is freaking failure and i doubt he can find some woman stupid enough to procreate with him.

i like to quote russel peters. he speaks a whole load of rubbish. but one thing he said got a point. YOU GOT TO BEAT YOUR FUCKING KIDS!!! damn i got ass whopping like every other day wehn i was young. and look how i turned out. not as if i got some handicap or disability from the beating. your kids are getting more and more fucked up. lets face it, the education system is already damn flawed, so dun make it more flawed by inhibiting the teachers to do their best. if u want so much control, homeschool your fucking kids. at least for me its either good school or home school.

any of you rmb the book 1984. the society in which all the kids tell on their parents. and back in the days of USSR when kids are encouraged to tell the secret police about what their parents are doing. pri sch kids are doing exactly that. back since when i was a kid. i fking hated it. its still the same now. and i still fking hate it. my most hated phrase in pri sch is "ORH HOR.....!!!!". then someone will go complaining to the teacher abt "this guy said this", "that guy did that". i think this is probably why singaporeans like to complain so much. started right from pri sch. fking irritating. i cant stand students coming up to me every 5 minutes complaining abt others. my generic reply are "do u think i care?", "i dun care", "my fault?". and i do not understand why "stupid", "idiot", "die", "wahlau" are considered bad words. whenever u say "wahlau" in desperation due to the unbearable noise level in class, it is followed by a deafening "ORH HORRRRRR teacher!!!!!".......... wtf.........

moving on to further issues. i think the intelligence gap among students in pri schs are simply too great. some responsible parents teach their kids at home which results in good results, making the life of teachers too easy. but hard at the same time cos dunno wad else to teach the kdis cos they know everything. on the other hand some fked up parents dun give a shit abt their kids and leave their kids to the teachers. resulting in fking stupid/slow kids who dunno shit, dun do homework, or is it jus the bad genes i dunno. i dun even know whether its nature or nurture already. dun wanna go into the whole argument with jenhan and situ after a bottle of whiskey again.... but during a test. u can have 20% scoring full marks and 20% failing like crazy. its hard to teach a class like that.

kids with ADD (attention deficit disorder) are seriously wrong. and saying them are wrong is an understatement. they totally disrupt the whole pace of teaching in class cos they dunno shit. because they cant keep still and pay attention for more than 5 secs. and i'm serious 5 secs. its that bad. i've seen it. i've tried teaching one. all i can say is. goner... its kinda like timmy from southpark. anything u ask him, he'll jus go "TIMMY!", "DUH........!", "HURA!", "LIBERLAU LIBERLAU!"........

gawd... pri sch kids are seriously little devils. and teaching them is living hell. my mum says that its retribution for being a naughty kid in pri sch. so its purgatory. but the difference is that i was freaking zai in pri sch. and that is the whole point. if you're zai, ppl cant do anything to you. cos they know you zai. but if you are screwed up overall. its jus screwed up.

sometimes i feel damn sad for the kids. and get too emotionally attached. its like this reponsibility that i need to help the kids get better. try to get them to realise how rigid singapore's educational and classification systems are and get them to start studying. working for some. but some are jus living in their own worlds.

sucks. not sure if i shall continue rotting in a pri sch cos i'm so totally not using my brains there. the only part that is working overtime is my voice. totally losing it from all the shouting.
