A Teacher's Diary

SPG

July 21, 2014

Monday

Everything went smooth. T. Kristoff helped me with the SPG meeting for Grades 4, 5 and 6. Lead by Princess and Prince from Grade 6 running as President.

Me: "What do you even mean by SPG? Strict Parental Guidance? Help! I don't know what I should do here."

T. Elsha and T. Kristoff laughed at my stupidity.

T. Elsha: "No teach. Supreme Pupils' Government. In college, it's SSG for Supreme Student Government."

Mostly, T. Kristoff did the talking.

I was a member of our own Student Council/SSG when I was in High School. I had the P.I.O. or Public Information Officer position. The one who do the rounds of announcements in classes. But that was a long time ago. I don't even remember what projects we did during our term. The anti-smoking campaign?

Two parties were created. Princess Caudilla's S.T.A.R.S and Prince Penuliar's S.E.N.T.I.N.E.L.S.

Thursday - Campaign

Friday - Election

And unfortunately, I'll become their freaking adviser. Dang it!

We also had this parade (Kunwari. Just imagine how small our school ground.) of pupils wearing costumes inspired by the characters of different best-seller books. Prince as Harry Potter, Jerome, Trej and Jaireb as Percy Jackson, Jhiyan as Athena, Marhea as Aphrodite.. and many others who wear animal costumes. I love Mishann's costume, she's very cute being a mouse but as a judge, I chose Marhea since she's in full costume with head dress, accessories and make up.

From time to time, I work on the script. Asking help with other Filipino teachers. I'm also finalizing the SMEAC. July is almost ending. And I don't know how I would survive next month.

I'll get by.

It was funny though when T. Jenn was trying to print her art worksheet while T. Josie was outside the faculty. We aren't allowed to print out our files unless these are necessary documents. And when you say necessary, these are the files for submission.

We were like mice while the cat is away. Like we were doing a crime and we're afraid of getting caught.

I don't know what's gotten into me. But since I've been searching for some details for my script.. I ran into some blogs. And poof! Out of curiousity, Dyiele Mi Luana Project's Blog came into my mind. I searched it on google. Checked if it's active. It is. The last entry was dated July 3, 2014 entitled Transient Success. As usual of his emoness and drama crap. But this time, it wasn't about me. It's about someone else now.

We all have to move on.

I checked previous posts. The entries I thought were deleted are still there. Everything. When he proposed. When I collapsed at the Pasig street leading me to a hospital, our quarrel, the biotamophygenemecovo. I also read something about his mom, talking to her lover. How brokenhearted he was.

I care;

I remember;

The past;

It's a part of me;

It's who I am.
