Dear Diary,
I ended up
falling asleep on the couch. I couldn't see much getting up to try and find my
way to the bed. I could 'Guess-timate' that it was about 5 AM. I could hear the
animals making noise outside, closing up the windows. Daddy came up early. I
got up and hurried down to Curepe with him. I was telling him about the
timesheet day being today, and I had no idea how to find the Waterfront address
for OJT submissions. Riding and walking down to school was alright.
As soon as I
walked into the staffroom, Mel called me and said that Jeanice wanted to speak
to me. I went to rest my bag, use the washroom and then went to speak to her.
She said that she had to go to Port of Spain that evening, so she would be
taking the timesheets for submission. I told her that mine just had to get
stamped. It was stamped and placed on my desk.
As soon as I was
done, I went back to the office to see how many papers I was able to get printed.
I was able to get three. Then I had to go back to the office to eat my pies.
Someone was speaking about fire. I sat by the same desk and ate them. Since I
did not have my dish, I reused one of the ream papers to rest the food on as if
it were a suhari leaf. At least the room was quiet enough to rest for a few
minutes.
When I got back
into the staffroom, the meeting was wrapping up. I had to call Mel and find out
where the papers that were left on the desk earlier that morning were. She said
that the test was in progress and that I would have to go and take over from Mr
Peters, who had begun it in 2F for me already. When I checked over time, it was
still very early. The wait was truly a long one. The children got restless and
tired. At some point, I decided to take up the papers at 12:30 so that I could
head back to work in the office.
The printing works
began to continue. Roberts was in the Indera office writing in the attendance
book. At the same time, Mrs Santana came in from the VP Office door and spoke
with me about the test paper. Roberts tried to do the explaining, which was not
correct. Miss came back a bit later in the evening to consult with me about the
paper. I went through the email with her to make sure that the paper was the
correct one being printed.
When we realised the cover page she brought was at home, I told her that I could always cut the sheet with scissors. This was done later in the evening. For my second-to-last exam, the printer crashed at least six times. I think I was getting tired. Once that set of scripts was finished printing, I did the fixtures and then moved to the printer inside.
