Yay yay!

Today, I will teach about 8 students, and in a proper classroom too. I will be doing some relief teaching for my cousin's students. This is so exciting. If truth be told, I have been excited about this since last week, when she first told me. Another excite factor is, I'll be paid for that hurhur... That's some cash for shoes and bras. Because I love shoes and bras. I cannot see a pair of pretty shoes or a pretty bra and not buy them.

So today, I can feeling-feeling jadi checher. I'm quite nervous, actually. I'm sure the kids are going to size me up - see how far they can stretch my patience. Or the lack of it.

Speaking of teachers, come, I ask all of you.

DO I LOOK LIKE A TEACHER?

No, right? I'm sure I don't.

But tell my extended relatives that. When I approached and salam them, they'd go... "Oh abeh sekarang masih mengajar lagi?" or "Ni ajar kat sekolah mana ni?" or "Amcam, best? Jadi teacher?"

I can understand their confusion. Because my cousin is a teacher right, and they always mistake me for her. Walhal muka lain semacam. Tak sama sey, silakan.

This is why I don't really fancy attending family affairs, those extended ones. I mean, I do, but all the socialising can get pretty tiring, you know. Not to mention, my mum will book me in advance. She will give me some advice and if I still refuse, dia kasi warning sikit. "Eh kau jangan ngada-ngada eh taknak pergi. Ini sedara ibu tau Awin. Kan tak baik. Kalau keluar dengan kawan boleh. Ikut ibu pergi jemputan sedara, malas kau ehh..." That will usually hit my guilt spot, so I went.

My point here is, I 'm getting tired of getting mistaken as a teacher. Really. Aku takder rupa dan ciri-ciri cikgu-cikgi langsung sey hurhur...
