Dear Diary,
This morning was
hard to wake up. My eyelid was very uncomfortable with a swollen bump to the
upper right and lower left by the nose. Had to look down to avoid the glare and
light a lot. The office was still locked this morning. I saw "Choo
Choo" conducting morning assemblies by the Form 3 corridors for that part
of the school before their roll call. I went to purchase the two pies for after
lunch. Still, no one was there by the office.
I went to hurry
off the timesheet. Two big scratches of errors. Thankfully Kiel helped me out.
He got mine and left about 9 to 10 AM for the submission. These people are
getting too ridiculous with the deadlines. If not the next day maybe Monday to
collect. There was a joke about "AJ" writing Thursday the 30th
instead of Wednesday the 30th in the Teachers' Attendance Book. He continued
the joke, "The days of the week are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Wednesday,
Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Get it right, people."
Jess came late
and left with Mel to get some fabric. I gave me a letter to type but I could
not read it. I felt like writing music so that is what I went to do. The time
flew by really quickly. I went to check on 3F. The music students were not
there. They were outside of the music room. I had to go through my scales
lesson with them. Jess did not return until the end of recess with Mr Marcelle.
The pans used for practice were sent to the hall.
During the
fourth period, we finally packed up to go back. In the staffroom, I coloured
the music room key with a permanent marker. Mrs Allen-Brown brought her son Mr
Brown with her today. He was playing a nice rhythmic pattern on a track
earlier. It was from someone playing a trap set. I wanted to get the music for
Tunapuna worked on but Mel had some rush time to get it typed. Her friend
Joshua didn't say much this time. His haircut was good after the long hair.
I ended up
getting sad news from Kiel that I had to do over my timesheet because all of
our sheets had yesterday's date on it from the stamp. I was able to update the
logbook one time before leaving the laptop with Mel and Joshua. I saw with
shock that someone wrote the satanic "Happy Halloween" in the
logbook. I didn't scratch it off before someone wanted to start some argument
and waste time with unnecessary noise.
Once Kiel got
back we got the stamp tested first before putting it on our timesheets. The
regular press-down was not found. Band rehearsal continued in the hall all the
time while standing by the front desk in the office as the room smelled
delicious of fries. I think that will make me feel for Muslim Barbeque later.
Saw "Choo Choo" left for bank time. Wished I could leave until next
week on Monday.
As soon as I sat
down in the staffroom I could not believe that it was 1:20 after lunch. That
had explained why the staffroom began to get empty. Jess was going to have
practice in the hall instead of class with 2F. I saw "Riba" coming to
drop back Brooks and a scoop. The pies were not saved for me so I got a refund.
2F children were now being kept in the hall. Started to feel bad with the bump
in my eyelid. "Rylie" was concerned about how I looked. Ended up back
in the staffroom again. Students were bringing in some tenor pans but that didn't
last long.
Coach and I had
a long wait to fix up the tables. The tables in use were tabken and a long
white table we used was used for a whiteboard. We went to the side of the
staffroom on the Form 1 side to get the disposed tables to recycle. Either way,
I had a great session. "Dass" was given a medal. Still no Jessie. I
played with Hailey Gumbs and Kerensia at the end. "Jenny" wasn't
looking so well today. There was no Vade too. It took me a full 30 minutes to
cool off. I gave the coach an attendance form that I had printed for him.
I left the
school and had Fai's that evening. The swollen eye was not letting me work
properly. I was able to work out the Verse and Chorus for Tunapuna Presbyterian
Primary School. It was very difficult to source an idea for an introduction.
Only John was hoping that I could get one. Couldn't believe that it took me a
whole three hours to get some sort of melody. Then the strum ideas came.
The chords were
not difficult to determine. The chorus felt like it had space for some runs. I
was forced to leave the completion for tomorrow on Divali because of useless
human tiredness. I was certain of the end being tomorrow. I was able to create
the uniform lyrics sheet to send John. Completion also occurred for the
standard uniform cover page and Book body sectional pages. I just need to get
the logo and school pictures to complete the full project and soon, the YouTube
videos.
