I’m losing my voice. I’ve been feeling a bug since last week but I’ve been trying to hold it off. Yesterday I felt really cold and had to wear a jacket to class. Today I’ve nearly lost my voice twice but after much glaring at the students, they kept silent enough for me to teach the lesson. I’m really trying to hold of getting sick – I do not want to get sick tomorrow!!! After tomorrow I don’t mind… if the bug that’s been festering inside me finally breaks lose on Saturday, by all means I’ll let it, but I am not getting sick by tomorrow!
Speaking of tomorrow, I’ve got to KDU college. NO, I’m not looking to enroll there. I’ve got to accompany the brats … err, I mean the adorable children* from my school there. They’re having a field trip there and it is the school’s intention to get our current fifth-formers into KDU college. It makes perfect business sense for the school, since they’re from the same educational group of companies. The field trip is for Australia week at KDU. And no, I have no idea what it’s about. I’m accompanying the students because the school needs some teachers to accompany the br- I mean, the hip young teenagers* to the college, and back. The teachers who are accompanying the students are specifically Secondary 4 & 5 teachers… because the students who are going are Secondary 4 and 5. (Talk about duh!)
So there’s no classes tomorrow. Yay! The only bummer about tomorrow is that upon our return, I have to go straight for an IS evaluation, about Microsoft Excel and Outlook. Yeah, teach me Microsoft Excel. Hmph. But I totally understand why it’s made compulsory – not all teachers are as tech savvy as I am. <conceited smile on face>
I really hope I don’t get sick. I’m going to go home and pump myself up with Vitamin C. I’m all out of Echinacea – of all the luck!!!
*To my students who are reading this: yes, I was being sarcastic, you br-… err, I mean you wonderful students of mine ;)
