"Welcome to the Civil Service"
In the midst of examinations and endless of feverish revisions of my own, I have just received my outcome from the Ministry of Education with regards to my position as Allied Educator this afternoon and was escastic.
For MOE had found me suitable as an Allied Educator and had given me an offer of appointment as 'Allied Educator Grade 14 with a monthly gross salary of ..... (I shall not reveal in here).....' And yes, I was posted to Bedok View Secondary School and to assume duities on the 22nd June 2009... Not Bedok Town, which I'm hoping for because of my younger brother is attending that school there.
There's a moment of trepidation when 28th April arrived. For the past 5 days, I haven't been receiving any e-mail from MOE and as each day went by, I kept myself optimistic by thinking that since they are taking a long time to reply, which means mine will come a little later. But somehow or rather, I have felt a little uneasy because I could still remember what happened during the interivew. I already thought that I had blown my chances away because I have given an answer that to me, it's quite unsatisfactory.
I wonder what will happen to me today if I continue to stay in my own stance on not knowing how to teach Music in the secondary school level........
Well, luckily, I didn't. And I change my mind at the last minute.... Heh.
I have no idea what I am going to teach at BVSS though I had stated in my application form that my specialized knowledge is Music. I just sent a reply back to MOE, by telling them that I am keen to take up the offer of appointment. Many more things to take note prior to my assumption of duities on 22nd June, including attending Appointment Formalities session where a memo will be posted for me to take note of its instructions for my first day at work.
I am excited, happy and relieved...yet nervous. Never mind about my own position, but what lies beneath the school that I am posted to, I have absolutely no idea.....
Like what Yiling SMSed me....
