My early hours
Hellođź‘‹ guyz. I woke up today feeling awkward and lazy to leave my bed. I started my day with a brief prayer. And then played some worship songs and sang along, praising God for the gift of life. It's a beautiful Tuesday morning and as a teacher, I am to be at my place of work by 7am so I get up by 5am on working days so I can be able to prepare myself and get to work on time. After doing my chores I got dress and left for work.
Arrival at work (school)
I got to school, settled in my class room. shortly it was time for staff devotion which all teachers and staffs gather to pray. After prayers my partner asked me to come snap with her and I refused at first, then she dragged me to snap her which I did and also took some shots with her.
By 7:30am, the bell for general morning devotion was rang and we gathered the pupils for morning assembly. One of the teachers conducted the assembly. After that announcement was made by the head teacher. She instructed the children to inform their parent to pay for party fee as there is going to be a graduation and end of the academic year party. Each pupil is expected to pay before the end June, 2024.
Doing my Job
Upon getting to class, my mood was already coming alive because I needed to be happy with my pupils to be able to communicate with them. In class I started the day with singing of rhymes and reciting the multiplication table. In my school, English Language is subdivided into Comprehension Reading, Creative Composition, Spelling and English Language. Today, I taught them auxiliary verbs in English Language. I explain to the pupils that auxiliary verbs are words that helps the verb in sentences for examples are, is, have and so on. I made some sentences and asked then to identify the verbs and auxiliary verbs which they answered correctly. After that I had to check and mark the pupils comprehension text books which I gave them home work on Monday.
After the days work, we ended our day with some selfies and the pupils say their closing prayers and bids us (teachers) good bye.
After work
I close from work by 3pm.
I strolled back home because where I live is a walkable distance from my office. I arrived home and was happy to see my husband at home already cause I taught he was not going to be home yet. I had egg soup with gari when I got home.
How I spent my evening
While I was gisting with my husband about our day's activities, my husband received a call from his father figure. He invited us to a hangout with him by 7pm. By 6pm we prepared and headed to "Leastpay" (a relaxation center in my town). I invited my best friend to accompany us and she came in such short notice.
We had drinks to make choices so I chose a yoghurt, we ate suya (roasted cow meat).
We talked and made fun of each other. After an hour, I decided to go see my best friend off and I headed home with my husband. On our way home, we stopped by a bar close our resident because my husband said he was craving beer. We had our seats and he ordered for a bottle cold of beer which was served. I was filled so could not take anything again. We went straight home afterwards. We arrived home by 9:30pm.
Conclusion
My day started awkwardly but it ended in joy. I had fun hanging out with my family. Creating lovely memories with family is awesome. I have learnt that children are such an amazing set of people to mingle with. When I am in their midst, I tend to forget any form of issues or worries I was battling with. I'll be planning and writing my lesson note before I sleep tonight.
