Yeah, wake me up when september ends?! It has become such a popular statement that it was getting frustrating when almost everyone i know put that up as their status updates. For one thing i did not want september to end! Literally in the reality.

Because my october is such a chaos! Of course there is nothing i can do about it aye. Metaphorically im running throughout october! And no stopping till end of november. Time flies so fast.

One thing after another starts from the registration period. And now speeding through for the edufest, which, why was i in that in the first place? But going through the motion all the same with all those freaking changes happening all the time. We all did our best and now is to pray and hope it all goes well. Because really, we all went through so many sacrifices. It was not part of our jobscope meaning these are actually extra hours put on and some hours had to be taken away from our daily responsibilities, it is no doubt voluntary at some costs. While i enjoy the experience and the challenges, going to different mosques for the meetings, it is taking some toll on me, and perhaps the rest of the committees too. But all the same, i pray everything goes well and yes the weather to be on our side.

And so this month is also korban month. So hello me, the awkward post for an awkward mosque event (head of edu = coordinator of korban) no where near my line of work. Haha. But it is what it is as long as there is no other officer who can do a good job as me 😉

The bittersweet news for this year’s korban is only 16 mosques was audited and allowed to do korban. My mosque wasnt one of them so we got to ‘rest’ a bit this year! Not totally for me because we have to send a bit of help to another neighbouring mosque. Technically im still working for this korban but a whole load taken off because the other mosque will be doing the major work.

And simultaneously between all these is the registration matters i have to settle. And it frustrates me that some teachers still made mistakes even though handling certain levels for the current students, like double entries in two classes, heck, even in the same class u will see two same names! I cannot stand this kind of work lah. I have to double check every single names now, when i have told them tonnes of times to be careful and dilligent about these! There’s about 800 names i have to go through. And they are taking a tad too long to settle all those unreturned forms and the loss of forms and part timers not doing exactly what we asked them to do and what nots!

the next person who’s going to say my job is just sitting around in front of the pc…damn right i am doing just that! So dont compare my job with yours. Just because you move around doing things doesnt make your job any harder than mine.

And sorry to say the office is becoming a place of ‘my job is more difficult than yours’ everyone trying to ‘proof’ he or she is doing more than the rest? What do you guys think ive been doing all this while? Play games?! And while most of you are having a nice family time at home on weekends, i face battles on them days so you dont see what happens around here. You dont see the kind of students i have to deal with, heck, the kind of teachers i have to deal with! But that’s another story for another day.

Breathe in breathe out. October november please be kind and may Allah grant me health for these two months for i really cannot be sick in these hectic times.

I guess i have to tuck in now. My off day tmrw but i’ll be going back to work for a meeting supposedly for the parttimers but i dont know who’s coming and who’s not and it frustrates me because we MADE time for them. Im having a huge headache at the back of my mind and hopes it goes away in the morning.
