LSC is over. Yay. Wait till whoever uploads the photos into the e-photos folder and I can take some to post up here. :)
It was much busier than what I expected. You know, I thought I just slack and do my lesson plans. Ended up moving about with the students or being station masters. As a student, I was never enthusiastic bout such activities. Haha, so don't expect me to be enthusiastic now.
Anyway, something unpleasant happened yesterday. I think someone hinted that she'll be against me from now on. Well well. Likely to be a misunderstanding. The culprit who caused the misunderstanding is to be blamed. I was quite unhappy over it, but I guess the possibility of leaving the school after practicum brightened things up. Of course, wherever I go, such office politics will be in place. The difference lies in whether I have a friend or a senior teacher to support me, or at least, believes that I'm not the one out there causing problems. This trust has to be built up over time.
I'm not saying that my current school sucks. In fact, I really love its environment, my HOD, my CTs and some of the students. My point is, we should always be wary of ones with different working styles. I woke up in the middle of the night feeling depressed. I wondered what I did wrong to deserve this. This is only the second week. I'm not even fighting for anything.
As I was talking to my mum this morning, I was reminded of the game show 一笔out消.
在八名挑战者中，最后只有一个胜利，如果你弱，必被人抛弃，不被他们接受做伙伴，如果你一开头就表现得强，必为其他人妒忌，被人孤立，就很容易中间时被投票踢你出局。虽然到最后一轮，还是要靠真正的实力再加上运气。但整个过程，都是从另一角度演译着真实的人生。
I must be careful of what I say from now on. Welcome to the working world. :)
