adviser
for the almost three years that i have served as an educator, there was never a year (yet) that i wasn't given an advisory class to handle.
why am i given such a task? for of all, i have never even imagined myself doing advisory duties, aside that they are additional work. i have to do counseling to my students, that is what i really suck at. i'm not really a people person. i'm not good at giving advice, disciplining, and doing those other things that is expected of an adviser. i hate it especially when the students wanted you to treat them as if they are babies. when they do something, they expect me to stand on their side. everything that they do, i have to tend to. especially when someone gets sent to the guidance office for doing something horrible. hays. for my advisory class last year, i have to deal with being the class treasurer, accounting the money for their class fund. i have to be a party planner as well, planning out christmas parties and yearend outings.
but being an adviser has it perks to. i enjoy the company of some cool and enjoyable students. i realize that they aren't so bad after some time. i get a surprise birthday bash. i get lotsa gifts for christmas. though they aren't really necesary. what i really WISH for for my advisory class is that they act their age, be mature, matutong makisama ng maayos. well, that pretty much sums it all up. sigh.
sana next year hinde na ako adviser. ahahahahaha.
by the way. here are the friendster accounts of the class' whom have given me their own share of headaches, troubles, joy, fun, adventure, tears.

Cypress (1st Qtr SY0607) -UNANGadvisory class ko. logo by me, made for their jersey. natutuwa ako sa klaseng ito kasi kahit magulo sila eh nag-iyakan nung malaman na lilipat ako ng advisory class. *sob*
Aster (2nd-4th Qtr SY0607) - mwahahahaha... anu nga ba masasabi ko sa klaseng ito. hmmm.. masaya silang kasama. matatalino. bibo. masipag. achievers. konti lang tlga ang masasabi ko na problema sa klaseng ito. pwera na lang sa mga pasaway.
Pauli (SY0708) - mwahahaha... enjoi na enjoy ako sa klaseng ito. una kong advisory class sa munsci. varied ang mga estujante. may mataba, may payat. may weird, may soxal. may maaangas, may mababait. at higit sa lahat mga munscians. unang klase na talagang nagpahirap sa buhay guro ko. wahehehe. masyadong maraming expectations na feeling ko hnde ko nagawa. anyways, i hope they enjoyed my company.
i love my students. i just do hope that they love me too.Fermi (SY0809) - my current advisory class, varsity section. na-handle ko na last year kaya mejo kabisado ko na ang galaw at ugali ng ilan sa kanila. but i'm still a long way from really knowing them and getting the most out of them. how can i wake up this dormant class that has great potential to do lots of great things. tamad nga lang. i had a row with them lately and i'd hope they change for the good. go go fiery fermi!
