Adapting, Surviving but still relaxing

Just like a chameleon that changes its skin colour to adapt to its environment for survival, a new beginning teacher that enters a new school has to do the same.. He (the teacher) has to get to know his new class, understand the school culture, locate the different classrooms, make new friends, orientate himself and many more... It has been two days and I see my other beginning teacher trying to adapt and survive.

They say the first two years of a beginning teacher is very crucial as that is when you know you break it or make it in this fast paced working environment.

Fortunately, I am only in the school as a "floater". A floater is a person who will be deployed to enter classrooms which the teacher is on medical leave, course and etc.

But i guess upon entering NIE again, i will definitely miss teaching the kids.. that is what keep me going on everyday.. The passion to teach..
