What to say? Where to start? Ahaa… Today was a busy day for me. First thing first, I went for a job interview in Real Kids Bukit Jelutong then I went to my former office.
The interview was great! I never expect such an understanding principal. Even though my SPM results were bad, (as bad as a rotten egg) she was fine with it. She went through all my certs and told me “What a quite journey you have here. This is what a route-learning is. It doesn’t matter how the results are, but the knowledge and experience you gained after all these years”. Her words made me smile and happy as a daisy. She added “We will promote you to become a teacher in our international school after we see a potential in you”. Okay, I can see how my future will be here but, there’s a catch. I have to work as an Assistant Teacher because I don’t have pre-school knowledge what-so-ever and I agreed to it. Why did I agree? Why must I start from scratch? Well, like the principal said, I don’t have the basics but I do have B. Ed. TESL. With B. Ed. TESL I can grow like a sunflower. To be truth with you people, my goal is to work in pre-schools (Real Kids, Kumon, Smart Reader, etc.)
What about pursuing Masters? Well, it CAN WAIT. Myself strongly tells me that teaching young adults is not my cup of tea. Even though the society will look up to me but, why must we do things that we ourselves do not prefer? Teaching is a NOBLE job. Teaching means to teach or to give out knowledge to people.
After the interview I went to my former workplace to settle up one thing and to meet my friends. Sorry to some of you because I was in such a hurry. Seeing the place has changed a bit and some of the new staff making me a little sad. Well, people come and go. But, one thing that I tak boleh belah was people asking me am I still dating Mr. Boyfie. Helllooooo…… just because I went there with bestie Saufee, it doesn’t mean that he is my boyfriend. People, stop being narrow-minded. As if you guys don’t have guy friends out there. Ppfftt.
And then of course they asked me why I declined Mr. Boss’s offer working part-time there. I am NOT as STUPID as you think. I know where and how to make money. No need to say I’m stupid for declining or what. Just because you know I am jobless and sitting at home, I don’t have plans. Well, I think that I am smart enough to let go something that I don’t like. Sigh.
Again people with their stereo-typed thinking.
When I arrived home, I received a call from the principal. They said I can start on Monday. Alhamdulillah, praise to God that my dream working place has opened the door for me. You shall call me Teacher Sara
