=)

It has been almost 2 weeks since I started teaching in my own center. Colleagues there are good. =) But sometimes, I still miss the days in HQ.

Last week, my trainer came to observe my class. It was the 1st time she observed my class in my own center...very nervous as usual. And again, made some mistakes here and there. However, I'm now learning to accept my mistakes and learnt from them. Nevertheless, she said some encouraging words...which really made my day! =)

Although it's really tiring, especially on weekends where I have a full day class, the satisfaction I got from this job is something money can't buy. I really enjoy teaching my own students and look forward to hug them at the end of every class. Tat day, a little girl kissed me after our class ended...tat really...really...touched my heart! ='''') It made me realized tat all the sacrifice I made was definately worth it!!

Right now, I'm embarking a journey of challenges ahead...and so far, I can say tat I have no regrets! =)

~Cheers~

*Anxious*

Today is the day I officially report to my own center. Was at HQ in the morning...observation...lunch...chit chat...jokes with colleagues as per normal...or at least wat I tot should be normal...until the time when I was about to leave HQ for my own center in the afternoon. Without anyone noticing, I went into my trainer's room and left a "Thank You" card on her table. And while i was packing my stuff to bring over...suddenly...there was a sour feeling rushing up from my throat to my nose...and tears rolled down uncontrollably..i can't hide my feelings anymore...

Not wanting anyone to notice that I'm actually crying...i dashed to the washroom and stayed there for quite a while. Finally, managed to settle down and continue packing and say bye to everyone there. It's really a terrible feeling....i dun like to say goodbye.

Reached my center, this is the place where I shall be from now on. My colleague over there bought a gift for me (Labour day gift)....really touched!! At least it made me feel more comfortable. However, tat happiness did not last. I got to know that our admin staff is leaving...due to some reason...which brought my morale down again...hai...but...I can't let this affect me. This is the career i want..I must go all out for it! No matter wat happens...

All right, sad things aside, I'm going to have my very 1st own class this coming fri!! Very excited...and nervous. Previously, my trainer will be there to observe every one of my actual class. But now....I will be handling everything by myself. It's quite a nervous experience. I will do my best! Cannot let myself and others down. =) Which mean practises...practises..and more practises from wed onwards.

I am not sure wat will be down the road...but one thing I"m sure is...I'm already stepping on a stone. =)

Graduated

Yes..I 've graduated yesterday. Had my demo class around 1.30pm yesterday...my last demo. It was the toughest demo as there was a question and ans part towards the end...really nervous! But managed to ans almost every question...actually all extracted directly from notes! hahaha..hope they din spot that.

Then, took my theory test at around 4pm plus..it was tedious in a way. Coz need to write pages and pages of words for 2 hours continuously! Very tiring..it had been a long time since I have taken a test like this. It's even more tedious den demo. But luckily....I've PASSED!! =D So do not need to re-take! *Phew*

Finally...when everything had ended...i realised im left with no energy... joined my colleague and continue doing my materials..but at least with no burden of test. Went down to have dinner with the rest around 9pm plus...den continue with my stuff. Had a great time laughing while watching some Youtube videos with all of them. Unconsiously, I stayed till 1am plus again...

Will be reporting to my centre directly from next week onwards...no matter how 不舍得 I am...still...i got to go. Life moves on. =) Not forgetting those who gave precious comments to help me improve, as well as those who have been always there to help me.

Although I have "graduated", I will still continue to improve my language and read up on the relevant areas. Coz...this is the career I want....
