Piano Examination is coming in just a week's time. There's still much for me to do in order to pass the examination. As usual, I didn't practise hard before that I have to do that in the next week. There would be so much waiting for me to do - homework, tests and examinations. I have to do my utmost in order to handle all these well.

It has been a long time that I didn't update my blog. One reason is that there's really not much I want to share here. Of course, there's something I would like to share, but not so publicly here on Blogger. Perhaps, I could share a bit of my experience as a Form 1 Class Prefect.

I am very much delighted that I have the opportunity to become one of the six specially and carefully selected Form 1 Class Prefect. There's so much fun, for me, at least, and I learnt quite something through it.

Being a Form 1 Class Prefect is no easy task, especially that I have to deal with some little boys, just graduated from Primary and entered this amazing College to continue their studies. There's so much for me to care about and that I have to do.

I always thought that boys coming up from Primary would be smart and disciplined. They might need some assistant at first, but they could work things out in the end just after few weeks' time to settle in. It turned out to be quite different that they are yet to be settled in Secondary School life.

For my class, the kids don't even know the way of handing in and collecting homework efficiently. I remembered when I was in Primary, all we need to do was to pass all our homework to the first seat, and then the representative or teacher would collect it. There shouldn't be any problem. However, that is not the case for the lovely kids. They made a big mess with noises and walking around. Didn't I be the collector did they be able to hand in homework. Perhaps that is only me, who expected too much in the beginning. Who knows.

It is always challenging to keep the class's discipline. All kids are talkative and active, they love to shout out loudly and speak very noisily no matter when and in what occasions. The job allows me to practise my "spontaneous response" skills. In many occasions, I have to think up of some ways to control the little boys so they could keep quite or so. So far, I feel good about what rules and ways in controlling the kids.

It is full of fun as well. Shouting at the boys are somehow interesting and fun, allow me to say. Not because that I love to shout at people nor couldn't control myself, I had never had the chance to shout out so loudly and having such "authority". Said so, though, I don't do that for fun. I do that as I want them to act the way I want them and teachers want them to do - be quite. Undoubtedly, I did a good job, didn't I?

There's still much room for improvement, and I will be the one to guide and let them do the best. With me, nothing is impossible. We could make it together. I know it. Definitely, yes.
