Dear Diary,
This morning I realised that I
had fallen asleep on the couch. Didn't even know when I closed my eyes. Dad had
to call me on the phone to wake me up. He said he had knocked on the window
twice. I had a while before getting to the shower. Causal would be easier but I
am still forced into a shirt and pants. The ride was quick to Curepe and also
to Sixth Avenue.
I took my time walking down the
road. The Anglican school called for students to line up. They were already in
their assembly. The same goes for George's students. I thought that we had the
first period but somehow RI was going to happen first that was a relief
thinking that I would be late for class. I had time to eat the pies before the
third period. Thankfully they were ready to serve. Mr Richard asked the same
question and I just said yes although I knew the intention. The pies were fire
hot but good.
Concerns of the 2F children again
were heard. Was sad to hear about it. Jess went to the office. She didn't come
back for long and then she was not in the classroom. I went back to use the
washroom and saw that the children were out of class. They were now entering
the music room. I was given six more
parang assignments. Two of them were incorrectly done. The other three were
marked and I had to very the last one from personal research.
Jess had the children place
themselves into groups to pick a parang song and work on a presentation for it.
I graded the last two next to her and we spoke about the contract extension and
the troublesome requirements and expectations of her as a teacher in her
previous school. When I was done with the grading, I began working on the
school song form in case another school would have to be worked on. I hoped to
call the Tunapuna Principal about the song booklet for Miss Robins.
Jess and the Form 4s were curious
to know about the form I was making but they listened to my typing instead
while writing their note on the Form/structure of the music. This was completed
before the last 10 minutes of lunchtime. I opened the laptop to continue typing
the journal entries for week eighty-four. The file I was typing was joy saved
to my flashdrive so saved another on my laptop. The entire week was typed out
toward the end of the seventh period.
I went back to the staffroom to
rest my bags there and then went back to play the teachers' band music with
Miss Jones. She was practising with her niece Crystal and we had a few runs of
the song. I had a chat with Mel and Mr Marcelle back in the staffroom. We were
told that the tickets were already handed out and the design for the T-shirts was
to be chosen and to select the colour. Sir was asking me if I could make it on
weekends for the drilling. I told them I would see when I could make it and balance
the church work. I left them because I was too tired for all of this.
When reaching home I was not able
to do anything. I thought I had saved the work done on the journal entries
today to my flashdrive but it seems like I saved it to the laptop instead, lol.
I will have to get it back from school tomorrow and put that week together up
them together.
Mel and I worked on a spreadsheet
for the ticket payments for the Panorama Talent Show. I told her that it would
be best to handwrite the information as the MTC Unity Walk because typing will
make the document too many pages. I hope she understands me with that. Did not
get back a response about sending it to print so I will have to wait for
tomorrow to see it as well as another check of our data.
Couldn't do anything after 9 PM no
matter how much I was forced. 11 PM came around quickly having no choice but to
call the night an end. My eyes began to swell up bigger than before because of
these late nights.
