Gave a free-writing exercise to the class yesterday. MT titled hers "Regret" and she talked about the things she regretted to have done last year. She and her Sec 4 boyfriend got into trouble with the school authorities and also the police last year regarding their relationship. Told me that they are not together anymore. What shocked me was that she said she is now seeing this ex-student of mine. He is of questionable character and is involved in gangs. I am very worried for her. I wanted to write her a letter in reply and I knew that it would be a long long letter because I certainly have alot to say to her. I did not get the chance to sit down and write to her. Will try to do so tomorrow. Am toying with the idea of having a chat with her instead, but then again, where to find the time to talk?

Most girls are searching for their identity when they are at the age of 14, thereabouts. At this point in time, its either they choose the correct group of friends and the correct attitude, or they just step n the wrong path and they begin to go downhill as they move up to sec 3 and 4. I've been thinking about the girls in 2E3 and 2E4. Even though I am not their form teacher, I have been with them enough periods a week in the whole of last year to know them pretty well. Can see who are the OK ones and who are on the brink of making that wrong decision. Thought of having a chat with all the girls after school in the 2E3 classroom regarding this. Must catch hold of them!

hmm....since school started, I have
(1) had at least 2 coffees in a day
(2) not eaten anything in school
(3) been working non-stop
(4) had sore throat ( I think it is becoming permanent)
(5) been constipating (!)

wonder why for the last one....intestines resting...?
