Have been living like a workaholic for the past 2 days. I actually feel happy to "do my stuff" at work. It's taht satisfaction that you're getting things done and clearing up future time. But then again, I always clear future time...but the the so-called future comes, there'll always be something to take up that time. Vicious...

Will be conducting extra lessons every saturday until the exams. J and I went to see the P yesterday to ask about the sars measures that that the school is taking for Saturdays. A plan has been made out. Then, we thought about why there seemed to be insufficient time for us (in particular, me and J) to complete our syllabus on time. We explored other options and even went up to talk to the HODs together (the P and us) about reducing the exam syllabus. Then, when I went to speak to the other Maths teachers of the same level, they told me, to my horror, that they are almost completing their syllabus! And I'm like about 3-4 chapters behind!? Then Mrs G reminded me that I was away on MC for an entire week after the sars break.

I actually forgot all about that.

And that on miserable week os MC is causing me all this headache now.

Anyway, life at school now is on the whole pretty good.

One more thing - I am attending an informal sign language course at a friends' place every Wednesday. She has 3 very big and wonderful cats! I love those feline creatures!! Her cats are huge and very tame. The only thing now is, I just discovered that I could be allergic to cat hairs. I sneeze non-stop when I'm at her place!! I had to wear a mask the last time I was there and amazingly I did not sneeze. Then when I took the mask off to drink water, I began sneezing immediately! It's unbearable. I find it so difficult to concentrate when my eyes are tearing away. How can I be allergic to cat hairs? I had a cat once and I was fine. I think it's basically because her cats shed ALOT. And I mean ALOT. There was SO MUCH cat hairs stuck on his pants when we went home after the last session! And he was sitting on her sofa...

Tomorrow is lesson 3 of our course. I have not been practicing....
