Mind games...

What do make out of students that never listen to you and never ever keep their promise? I have two of such students under my wings. What irks me the most, is that, they think they own the world. One of them promised to turn over a new leaf, but my patience is running thin. He said he wanted to see me today, but he stood me up. I wouldn't mind if he were a top class student, but he's been going MIA since last semester! He only showed up at the beginning, trying to impress us lecturers by saying he wanted to continue studying, only for me to see his attitude never changed a even an inch.

I get so fumed up over this kid. All I wanted to do is to help him. But he keeps on lying, one after another. Not a single promise he made I can hold on to. I am very tempted to call on his father to see whether whatever he said about his whole family was into a black magic spell was even close to a truth. Suddenly it is all so far-fetched.

Is he just simply lazy and wasting time and money for the thing he wants to do is do nothing? Being in the university is just a pretext and all the pretensions he may show to his family that he is still a university student? I'm giving him the final chance this semester. I won't accept him next time if he fails.

Hey Prof! Thanks for the comment re. Tomok winning OIAM3 :)

So, I read that you're a lecturer. I like the way you write, not the typical serious lecturer... hehe.

This is a great blog but I see that it's not updated. Super busy I guess.

Have a great weekend!

Imaginez vous seriez dans ma place. Comment pensiez-vous de la vie d'un professeur. Alors, pour me comprendre mieux, lisez donc et peut-etre vous comprendrez ce que dans mon esprit.

Bienvenue a mon monde.

Imagine you were in my place. How would you think of life as a lecturer. Well, in order to understand better, read and maybe you will understand what is in my mind.

Welcome to my world.

Bayangkan anda di tempat saya. Bagaimana pemikiran anda sebagai pensyarah. Untuk memahaminya dengan lebih baik, baca dan mungkin anda akan faham apa di dalam fikiran saya.

Selamat Datang ke duniaku.
