I woke up with another chilly and rainy morning. Today is just another usual day of my life away from home. Sometimes I feel sad and at times happy thinking of how I am able to fulfill my dreams in life. Yet these are not the end of my journey as I have so many goals which for the moment I am trying my very best to pursue everything as much as I can. I am trying to carefully build my future being careful to follow His plan for my life. After all, I am just one of His wonderful instruments so does the rest of humanity.
With sinfulness and humility I always come to Him and ask for more strength and forgiveness.

Indeed a Fulfilling Day
This morning I woke up so early as what my housemate told me coz usually I wake up around lunch time on days off but this is yet another day. I have to wake up early and finish my tasks early on so I can send something to Cebu. I will surely call them tonight and tell them some funny stories at school this week.
I did my tasks fast this morning and I didn’t mind about breakfast or lunch not until my housemate called me and said it’s time to eat. I then remembered I haven’t eaten brunch! Oh goodness! It’s why I can feel my stomach is grumbling. Whew!
After we had lunch at around one in the afternoon, I readily prepared myself for I have to meet Kevin our technical staff to go with me to repair my digicam and then we have to go to the post office to send some things home. Indeed, we finished on time as scheduled. And oh I forgot to mention my colleague went with us coz his digicam malfunctioned as well. After the camera store, we went separate ways. He went home while Kevin and I went to the post office. After the post office, I just thought of pizza! Yes PIZZA! Then, I told Kevin we must go back to the downtown area and have some pizza. He said of course and we went there to have some pizza despite of the very cold and rainy weather. We finished eating ‘our pizza dinner’ according to him at around 6.15 and then I went home while he went back to school. I also gave a box of Hawaiian flavored pizza to Alice, my closest staff at school.
I went home stuffed and couldn’t get my way up to the seventh floor, hahah. Oh well, as long as I am full I of course can do whatever I want! So when I arrived home, I immediately turned on my laptop and posted this yet another productive day off here in Rui An.
I am so Happy and Excited
Wtih what has been happening at school now, I am deeply happy for being a part of the co-teaching team with our Pilot Converstion Class. We are so glad with the feedback that we had yesterday with the parents in a 15-minute-meeting. Our Superior DOS sent me a text message thanking me of being a part of the success of our pilot class. Now that I have to leave in a few weeks for a month vacation at home, I would surely miss the little monsters in that class. Actually, they played a greater part of my life’s story at work in EF. I’d surely miss them on weekends. Smiles. While I was typing this piece, I am partly very happy and sad and raring to go home for I really miss my family and friends at the homefront. On the other hand, I am so sure to miss my little kids when I’ll leave soon. Huhmmmmm…..
I CAN Make it! ;)
Just this morning when I woke up I felt a lot better for I had a very good sleep last night. At least I tried to sleep and forgot all my worries before I doze off to bed. I immediately turned on my laptop after I finished my housie chores. Then automatic programs were running and when all is done, a pop-up message from my messenger said I have six unread emails in my inbox. I checked it and I smiled from ear to ear. My brother sent me a good morning email and said it’s another email day for us. I am just simply happy to have an email buddy while I am away. This way I know what’s their situation and we can keep each other posted. Many thanks to advanced technology,
Hearing Wondrous Praises are more than a Relief
Last Saturday was such a great day for me though I can say twas a bit tough for I’ve got four classes in a row with only 30 minutes break time in between classes. After I finished my early learner class which I got only four boys and a girl with our superior DOS at the back who watched for a couple of minutes, he said, ‘Your class is excellent today’. I said to myself that they were so impressive today among other tough days with them weeks ago. That comment was so tweely said and I felt I am raised in heaven and even now I could still remember how he said those words of praise to me. I am so happy and proud of myself; my confidence in teaching is back now and I hope this would be the same until I leave. Having heard such a nice praise from a person who expects perfection is more than an accomplishment for me.
Looking Forward to
Whenever I am struck with my blues these days I’m always trying to divert and think of my upcoming homecoming in more or less than four weeks from now. Thinking of my coming home in the next few weeks is such a great expectation for me and my family. As soon as I called home my parents got so excited to that date. I know there are so many things to do when I get there but I also it’s gonna be fine. I have to polish things and get my goals realized which I have been dreaming all these years for me and my family. They are my inspirations in life and they are my reasons why I am here out of my comfort zones.
