Sequential Transformation

Within just 4 weeks, my working life has morphed my path into an adventurous sequal.Yesterday, I was called by the Academic Director to his room, and that moment really woke me up from my drowsy status. The only time he calls me is to hand me some contracts, and this time, I got a really weird piece.

“ Mike, just read through” he said

 The terms were about homosexuality, AIDS and corruption.

 I think to myself, “hey, what offense have I commited to receive such documents?”

It was then he told me that I have to replace a Pendidikan Moral class urgently because the lecturer was gone all of a sudden. I was relieved for a while, and said “alright, I’ll see what I can do with them”

I stepped in the class, and to my surprise, my bunch of students were there combined with by students from other design practices. I conducted the class, and turn it into a discussion forum, had breakfast with my students for the first time, and there is some bonding going on that time. I gave them the remaining two activities that I posted previously , and so they form groups and disperse to their selected site. Students from other classes approached me and asked, “ Mr. Mike, why did they scatter everywhere, where are they going?” So I explained the whole scenario to them and tell them how it will benefit them”

I burst into laughter when the feedback that they gave was “ Why Mr. xxx did not gave us something like that?” That gave me a firmer idea that my ways are working well.  I told Mr.xxx about it, and he was laughing, saying that, alright, ill try to figure out something to torture them like you did.

Today,  at every corner I walk, there will be some new faces saying hi to me, and it’s really warm to receive greeting from students who is not even under my care. That surprises one of the MMD lecturer who I was walking back with after lunch.

On the other hand, the Head of Department was working on a workshop where Form4-5 students come in to learn basics about Graphics, Multimedia, and Interior Design. I was given the opportunity to join in as a team to take over the Interior Design aspect of the workshop since I am the only person in the faculty who is able to converse in Mandarin. I was told about this 4 days ago, and only today I realized that, the only person who was going there for the whole workshop was actually just me and him :S

That is somehow scary, but come to think of it, if I am well prepared and get everything on serious mode, I do not need to fear anything :)

Hightlight of the day: I gave my class a big shock during a horror story telling session, and one of the girl student was laughing while tears flowing all over her face.

Received underground news from Mr.XXX that, students from combined faculty, were currently planning on a trip to Langkawi, and during the meeting, they all were talking about inviting Mr. Mike along. Mr’Xxx said “ Mike, they really like you a lot”

Grateful i am to these opportunity and blessings

I shall keep myself motivated with my passions and energy for this 2 years :)
