BURNOUT..BURN BABY BURN

Today, Monday, 14/7/2008, 3:45pm.
its raining outside. the weather is unpredictable these days. *yawn. perhaps this has got to do with global warming. i don't know who is to be blamed.

ok..am reading an article right now. its abt Burnout. yes i admit now i am having a bad time coping with my studies and my career. everything don't seem ok. with part time and extra classes, my workload this sem reach nearly 30 hours/week. how can i describe this.. well i do enjoy teaching and i love my students so much. perhaps that is one of the reasons why i am willing to do those part time and extra classes. abt two weeks ago, i met one of my former students. She told me that she had passed all her exams with flying colors. She is now going to further her studies at UKM (National Uni of Malaysia). upon hearing the good news, i am so happy and i wish her all the best in her studies. for me, this is my ultimate satisfaction.

ok back to my main objective of writing today's blog. ok Burnout. i believe that quality is more important than quantity. it doesnt matter how many classes you teach..because in the end what count is the quality of your teaching.. will the students be able to understand your message / lesson for that particular day.am i right? i have classes up to 6.30 every monday and thursday. i even have to come to my office on Sat. ok that's fine with me. however, i pity my students for having classes in the late afternoon. huhu..

ok.Burnout.. think i need a break..i plan to go somewhere far..far away frm everyone where i can only be with myself..and write something meaningful rather than something gloomy and dark n boring. perhaps i should go to Bali..sitting by the saeshore..enjoying the beauty of sunset or to Italy...where i can write as many many poems as i can and be one with my fav painter Vincent Van Gaugh ( hope my spelling is correct)or to New Zealand..staying with the Maori and learn their languages or to Japan...pampering myself with a cup of green tea which is made especially for me or to Africa..experience the amazing view of the Safari or to Mecca..purifying myself for whatever bad deeds i had ever done or to..or to.huargh. the list goes on and on.

Ok..i love to write..and i think i have gradually improve my writing skill since i join blgspot. i admit am not good at expressing myself...be it orally or on the paper..i mean writing. i prefer to read books or mags.and i dont even remember when i started to enjoy writing as much as i enjoy reading. however i need more and more exercises to brush up my skill.

owh.. got to go..hv class now. will write back. bye.
