Went to relieve at the same primary school I did yesterday.I am quite freaked out by alot of things there.

Lessons officially start at 7.25 am everyday. School ends at bout 2 almost everyday for primary 4,5,6. You have to sit through 2 hrs of lessons for one subject everyday. How stressful! I suppose that accounts for their good results.

It is a chinese school. I am very freak out by their bowing. I get bowed to at least 5 times a day. Its a really perfect bow... a bow that goes 90 degrees or more.

Gave them a spelling test today... as instructed by their teacher. I am sure ALL of them spelled 'honest' correctly... cos that word was pasted on the wall... and I could not take it down or I will end up tearing that paper.

I was pretty pissed off by two students who kept quarelling and disturbing each other. I made them write an essay tittled 'why I should not disturb other people'. Its a really stupid idea but it really works. They sat there quietly writing. One boy wrote, ' I should not disturb other people because I have to write an essay on why I should not disturb other people when I could have spend the time reading my book.' At the end... I think he ran out of things to write. So he wrote about how other people got disturb him and ended of with 'but thats another story'.
