finally

finally, the mid sem break is here. I'm in such a need of a break from NUS. Now I understand what one senior meant, that we should go on exchange as "by year 2, you will be sick of the schedule in NUS". How true. I don't think my relief teaching is affecting my morale. Rather, I find the lessons less interesting lately. It doesn't wow or open my mind like some modules which I've done previously. Perhaps there are only these few school of thoughts at looking things, i.e. Marxist kind of thinking, cultural turn, etc.

My last day has yet to be set. Guess we are all too busy preparing the students for exams to consider. Everytime my thinking goes wild, I end up thinking what am I going to say during my last lesson, how should I leave. Should I inform them that I'm leaving only on the week itself, one lesson before my last lesson, at the start of my last lesson, at the end of my last lesson, or just disappear?

Ironically, I came back to find proper closure with them. Yet, I'm having so much trouble closing it properly.

Kak X is right. The first batch that you see to graduation will always be the most special batch to you. Though I don't get to see them to their graduation, though it's quite unlikely I wouldn't be in S'pore when they get their O level results, they are special to me. They are, my first batch.
