.: Admin Admin.. Planning Planning... :.
Well if you all have know, I am not a person who likes to do many admin stuff as well as planning. Maybe I tend to think a lot when it comes to planning, and I am not a very step by step person, hence doing admin to me, I may end up being rather confuse myself....Maybe you can say I am more of an excuator and a follower. When I am asked to do things, I tend to be better at that. Strangely through my years in school, I have been called to leadership positions and with that comes much planning and admin work needed to do. Well guess those in the past were all still manageable, with the help of the committee. Why am I talking about all these? You must be wondering... The very thing is I have come to recognise I cannot run away form doing admin stuff, especially if you want to be in a leadership position. As recently besides having to mark all the papers of the students, I was thrown to plan, organise and come up with the post exam activities for the Sec 1 and Sec 2. Initially I happily took on the job, since I thought it was not so difficult to go about planning. Yeh and now I have been spending the last few days and nights, trying to come up with the fixtures, getting the instructions and the rules of the games as well as writing up the regristration form for the students and linking up with the student council to plan. If you look at it, I actually only know about this in the middle of this week which means I only have less then 1 weeks to plan. Worst thing is now the students are in the mist of their exams, hence passing information around is much more difficult. This is just a small part of what teachers need to do in terms of the admin matters to settle. I realised there is really A LOT of admin stuff that needs efficient planning and precious timing in handing work in when it comes to teaching. WOH! God has to put me through the many " I dont like admin.. I dont like admin"cries to make me understand, why He actually made me go through so many of these similar stuff in church is to kindof prepare me for my workplace. Recently the many events that is coming up for Church wise as well as the many planning and organising that needs to be put into running these events, really at first sight, can throw me out of my chair! However as I learn to tell myself, this is something I have to face and not run away from, or can never run away from, I am able to now look at it with a "I love admin" attitude! Haha.. I believe all these will not only test me but it will also build up a character within me, to learn to be efficient, to learn to think outside the box, to be precious in doing things and to build up my patience. May the Lord bless my first Major Project that I am orgainsing for the school. Although it is not really very big, but I will give it my best and YEH be the SALT and LIGHT of the school!I LOVE ADMIN !!!
