What to be?

Should i really consider being a teacher? After As, my mum and grandma kept pestering me about being one, like 24 hrs! The more they talked about it, the further i wanted to push the idea away. Ive always wanted to be unique. I remember trying my best to come up with as different story outline for all of my karangan (malay compositions) as possible, drawing/creating as unique art pieces as possible, as interesting PI (preliminary idea) for my PW as possible etc. I would like to have a unique job as well. I know that being a teacher is really a noble, respected and of course full of responsibilities kind of job. Teachers contribute to the community a lot... but sighhh i dont knw what's holding me. Maybe the part about having big responsibilities? If i cant be a good teacher, i shouldnt be a teacher at all. Im afraid i wouldnt be able to help all of my students towards the path of success:/

So, i sat down with my mum and grandma and talked to them about what i feel. I cant remember when was the last time they talked about me being a teacher haha. They are really understanding;) i thought that's the end of it, but no.

I was eating with a colleague of mine during dinner break. We talked a lot and suddenly arrived at the career topic.

amalina: so.. What you planning to do?
Me: entah.. Belum tahu lagi aper nak jadi (im not sure what i want to be yet)
amalina: a teacher?

I had just put a spoonful of rice in my mouth and nearly coughed them out. After swallowing, i just looked at her.

Amalina: hahah asal? (why?)
Me: my nenek and mum pun cakap gitu. Why did you say i should be a teacher? (my grandma and mum said the same way too)
amalina: because you are outspoken, thats why. Teachers talk a lot right
me:... K fine, i will not talk much now and be pendiam

hmmmm maybe...just maybe i would consider being a teacher. Hahah ish zakiah, all along your family has been asking you to do so and pushed the idea completely away. Now, u would be considering it just because your friend said you should? Oopss.. Haha i guess everyone needs a third perpective and ive got mine.

On a completely different note, i improved a lot as a cashier! *beams* i can now scan and talk to the cashier beside me, which can be dangerous cos i might end up scanning things twice. And my newly-found friends are superrrrr funny and gerek people! Haha sometimes i wish i can joke ard like them. So far, my role is to just laugh and laugh hhahaxD let me recall one. This happened on monday night. Shabrina's bestfriend, who is working in Dunkin' Donuts bought Shabrina some donuts. So she brought them inside the cash office and invited me and another girl, Izzah to eat. There were only 3 of us, the rest were still closing their counters.

Shabrina: Izzah, zakiah, makan ah. Amik satu. (take one donut)
Izzah: *a really exaggerated stressed face* tak boleh! (cannot!)
Shabrina and me: *surprised face*asal?? (why?)
Izzah: aku puasa! (im fasting!)

For a split second, it was just silence. Then shabrina exploded.

Shabrina: muke mintak kene sepak seyh puasa 11 malam!(ur face need a smack. How can you be fasting at 11pm?)
And then we just laughed like crazy people.

Kk not funny eh? Hahah i told my mum and sister about it. My mum only laughed when she saw my face changed, and it didnt come out as sincere while my very loving sisters retorted harshly that it wasnt funny at all, making me look like a fool-.- oh wells, it was really funny when it happened haha. Really!

Im having a 3 days break till friday;) YEHAAAA!

Assalamualaikum.

Always remember your roots! Dont look down on others
