Diabolical?

I was out with Serene at orchard last night. All the rest of wonderwoman couldn't join us.

I think it's such a blessing to be spending a carefree afternoon looking at cameras in the sony centre at wisma. That alpha 6000. I wonder... hahaha no money now.

With serene it's always about work, if not, it's something about her school work which she needs help in (hahaha).
So before long I started thinking about my impending internship at MOE for 6 whopping weeks. Yes, I do feel as though 6 weeks is going to be a really long time, and yes, I realised that few people will agree with my assessment.

And i was thinking back on the attachment last year. Those 4 weeks where I could have performed better. Easily. I could have held back my tongue, I could have been more proper. I could have been more proactive. I could... it goes on. Still, I wonder if I did a bad thing for being principled. I'm still of the opinion that fairfield was cheating the system and robbing us of a proper attachment experience with all those reports which we wrote for the teachers.

I think... I was such an abrasive person back then. I cannot tell why it was like that either. How do I be principled but not be an ass about it?

Then this morning I was having a chat with Dr Mie. It's a real relief that the chat happened because my impression of her was souring week after week especially after the 2 (arguably) hostile sounding emails regarding our individual and group assignments.

I guess she's just not that good with the use of linguistic devices to soften her tone... or maybe she didn't intend to, which is reasonable, if she felt that she needed to keep up the professionalism. So anyway, the talk went well. Even though I was giving her a piece of my mind, including some criticisms of how she run things, I wasn't an asshole with it.

it's these moments when I catch a glimpse of the person I want to be. She tells me I'll make a good teacher because I am honest and will never butter my words for students. I hope it is true, but more so, I hope I can get people to eat the bread without butter.

How is that done? How does one mean something without being hurtfully blunt?
I really need to get down to this.
