Hi kids!

I'm closing this blog down officially today. Not really deleting this page because I'd still like to have your links around for me to check out your lives and such but I won't be updating this page. It's really hard to type wrods that will connect to you guys when I'm not around and I'm no longer (and never will be) Miss Oon so this blog name will be kind of a joke. Mid years has just passed from what I know and I hope you guys did well. For my students, do keep me updated on your grades so that I won't worry too much about you guys! Know that I'll be around if you need someone to talk to alright!


Love, Chmel.

When I first started teaching, I hated it when I hear people calling my students 'stupid' or 'no hope'. In my eyes, there weren't bad students, only bad teachers who are unable to capture their attention and educate them properly.


No matter what, even if it's during relief teaching, I do not think that any teacher, trained or untrained, should call a student names- names that derogate them to the status of beasts.


When my student called the security guard 'dog', I reprimanded her in front of her friends (despite knowing that she hates losing face) and demanded her to apologise to the security guard. This type of name calling is immature and lame. So what if you're able to call someone a dog. Does that make you anymore human or the victim any less human? To think that you're someone who's here to inspire, care and lead.


Okay whatever. I'm no longer a teacher so I shouldn't poke my nose in the school's affair.


But really..

O btw, if you've added me on facebook and I did not accept, I probably don't know you. I'm a shy person and I don't quite wanna accept anyone that I don't know. So PM me who you are before adding me k!

Okay I'm finding it increasingly difficult to post on this blog bc I'm really detached from the school at the mo. Usually, my post are inspired by something I see in the school and I feel that I have to try to help, or by conversations with fellow Northlanders.


However, I do not wish to stop blogging as I know how important it is to have a mentor at this age. I didn't have one, and I missed a lot of opportunities. I'd hate it if this were to happen to any of my students.


I'll try to have some generic posts about he future but let me know if there's a specific issue that you want me to talk/blog about (maybe child abuse, eating disorders, bitchy classmates etc.). If not, after I've lost my inspirations and memories of NSS fade, you may find this blog dead :(

IF YOU WANNA BE

okay, here's some important shit that you guys need to know (yes, I can use the word shit since I'm no longer a teacher whoohoo)


It's mightily important to think about what you wanna be in the future, if you haven't already. WHY? bc some of my friends who wanna get into the course that they want can't do so due to their subject combination.


if you're a sec 2 or below, lucky you, all of the doors are open. If you've already done your physics/bio history/geo choice, ohno.


WHY? bc some uni entry requires you to take a certain subject in A level (assuming that you're going to a JC) and it's a no-go if you don't.



don't have much time here, but Math and Chem are the 2 most important subjects. I have done the wrong thing by taking H1 chem (something like combined science, H2 is pure science).



If you know what you wanna be, you can leave a tag and I'll tell you which subjects are important for you to do well in (which means that youl have to get god grades in O lvl to do it in As)



If you're intending to get a diploma (poly), then the more you should know what you want. and go find out what subjects are important for entry. (mass com requires an A for English if I'm not wrong. so on so forth)




OKAY HOPE YOU GUYS ARE STILL READING. (L)(L)(L)

Okay! For those people who did not receive cranes from me and want a message, please leave a tag with your fb link and I'll comment on your wall :)


I'll be selling some clothes for my friends on this space soon so keep a lookout k!

Pictures overload!

Last week in school and hence I brought my camera there.

The whole album's on facebook and I made it public to everyone.


Sorry but it's really too much to be uploaded on this site :(





you know that I'm gonna miss you guys badly right, :(
