DOWN MEMORY'S LANE





OVERLOAD

My second son who is studying in a chinese school in primary six told me his teacher fainted in school...he said it was a pitiful sight to see his teacher who is a woman fainted on the pavement.. later, my son told me it was because of exhaustion.. overload. Imagine, this woman trying to be super-human: besides being a teacher, she is also a wife, mother and she also gives tuition for a selected group of her students at her home (my son included). The tuition was almost everyday... this is for the UPSR students who can score in the examination....can we say this teacher is dedicated, hardworking.. or foolhardy punishing her body this way. Is it because of the fuel hike that drove her to work herself to exhaustion?
