In retrospect; I think I've been too naive to believe that everything would work out perfectly fine
Somehow, I don't feel a sense of freedom, neither do I feel awfully happy about the end of my 16 week stint as an intern in Nan Hua. It's like I'm second guessing myself now, perhaps I should have chosen to stay on and I'm trying so very hard to convince myself that I've made the right decision. After all, what I'm doing at Nan Hua isn't that much but something in my conscience tells me I think it's better to leave than stay. Although the working hours seem shorter and the pay is really good as compared to what I'm gonna get, I can't do it. I can't play with the future of my students. It's too huge a gamble, a calculated risk where the odds of me winning (i.e. helping them improve) are really low. I can tell that although some of them are upset about me leaving, I think it's because they dread the next teacher who's gonna teach them more than because I'm leaving. I'm glad for the opportunity to have influenced them in some way, and I hope I have motivated them to take Geography more seriously and to see the fun side to it, because only then will I have achieved what I had aimed for.No matter what, I think I've had a fulfilling 16 week stint here at Nan Hua. I'm glad I didn't trod on any toes or burn any bridges. I'll miss my students, my fellow RTs, the lunches we had, the epic
edit- here's an excerpt from the card my dear 309 gave me:
'My love for you is like
- deforestation -> it burns nonstop
- corrasion, attrition, solution, hydraulic action can never erode our love away; it will be accumulated like sediments to form a mega love delta.
- as deep as the sea; longshore drift will form a tombolo that connects us to you.
Love, 309'
Loads of Geog references but I hope they learn remember whatever I've taught them mannnnnn :)
