The last few days have been rather hectic. I'm always dashing from one place to another. Wonder if that makes me make dashing as a person. Hehs. Anyway, it's always the vase that when I have something good to write about but just am not in the mood for it. Either that or that muse has taken a vacation too. Truthfully I'd usually write when I have qualms about something. If I were to e seething with rage, I'd usually end up being something that is written about instead of the writer.
Right now, i guess I'm somewhere in between those 2 extremes as I'm trying to teach this one particular kid the "wonders" of fraction. It's now been 3 months and he is still not getting it. I've tried various methods(all of which has since work for all my other students) but this one doesn't even seem to be able to comprehend instructions. It's like talking to a wall except that even walls produces echoes. At the end of every session wight this kid, I'd usually head out for a puff or two(usually a lot more than that) just to calm myself down else I'd be the hottest topic in the local news.
I know I know, some of you(you know who you are) is just going to say that I'm no teacher or that im a really poor one. Guess what? You're prolly right. I am no teacher. With the standard of people being recruited dropping way below par (way way below) who wants to become a teacher? I'm merely an educator albeit a private one who makes just as much money as a full timer doing 1/4 of his job. I guess, maybe I could turn this into full time thing for myself. I mean the hours are great and I could choose whoever I want to teach and at what time. If I'm gettig an average of 30 bucks for every kid per week, I could be making 300 if I get 10 of those per week. If I get 20 it'd be $600. If I get 40 it'd be $1200 per week. And that's how many students each teacher has to deal with but they're earning just as much whilst having to take on other shitty duties as well. I wonder if the ministry is getting a hint as to why the turnover rate is so damn high. (i'll give you a hint. Hire quality and pay more. That's how you retain them (;
Enough of that nincompoop. Ever since getting a lisence, all I ever want to do is drive. Poor supermassiveblackhole has been largely forsaken due to this sudden that have. So it's been random pickings for me on the things that I haven driven so far. I know this sounds a lot like unnecessary gloating largely because it is. Hahah! Okay..so far Its been a Kelisa, a Wish, a Rush, a van and even a lorry. It's really a random bunch of vehicles. I'm still craving of tearing it up on the tracks in a Lancer, a diablo and a couple of the series that Ferrari has came out with. And oh yes, I'd really like to tear it up I. The streets in a Mustang. That car is pure power.
But I'd still would want to drive/ride around the world. I would especially want to take part in the Dakar. That is one awesome race.
I've ran out things to write. Just a bit more and I'll be done with this kid.
Only when you've been left waiting for hours just to see the doctor do you discover the try meaning of being a patient
