I’ve been having a great vacay so far here at my hometown. There has been a lot more things to do yet so little time left for me to meet all my friends. I really want to meet them all but I think I won’t be seeing them maybe some but not all. I’m rest assured though to come back here next year hopefully this would be my last contract abroad. If ever I would go abroad again I would NEVER EVER DARE to go in the Middle East again! Even though I’ve learned a lot more lessons there, my trials and misadventures cannot far outweigh the lessons I’ve got. I just don’t want to commit the same wrong mover ever again. This reminds me of my Canadian friend Trent who actually said to me that I should do whatever makes me happy. I’m DEFINITELY NOT HAPPY there so I won’t dare come back and work ever again. Once is enough. Twice is too much. The succeeding more cases would be plain IDIOCY!

Sad but True
Today’s pretty great with my classes and this morning’s class was just so awesome. As always expected, Wayne’s really outstanding and we are happy to see him improving a lot in class as the course is about to finish. We were so tired today and we didn’t have really great time this morning. I don’t know I just woke up tired and didn’t want to work at all. Huh! This is my downside of being left alone by so many important people in my life. Yesterday was just so taxing for me and I left last night so heavy hearted and I just cried coz of a dear friend’s leaving too soon at school. Huh!
I am really sad coz of it. Oh well could be because of the fact that she is my monitor of most of my classes this term. I would surely miss her when I leave soon. There are so many ways to connect though but personal communication is really preferable for there a lot more than a thousand word to express one’s feelings clearly and effectively.
Still right now while I am writing this I’m still sad and I hope to carry on this feeling while it fades away soonest.
Robyn was really GREAT
Last Tuesday this girl in my class fell into temper tantrums just because she’s didn’t know how to write numbers. She cried for more than 15 minutes and disrupted our class. I hated her for that night and tonight she was just amazingly great! Whew! I said to her grandmother that she’s doing great tonight. They all went happy tonight. I am glad too for we enjoyed our class tonight.
I could remember myself when I was still a young learner that I also cried many times because of the fear of doing something or failing at something if I tend to do it. As a student, I was so idealistic and I wanted everything to be perfect. I always wanted to excel at something if not everything. As I grew up, I tried really hard at almost everything I stumble upon my way. Mainly I devote myself to studies as what my parents have told me to always do good at school for it’s the only treasure they could leave me when they’re gone. I took that seriously and had proved myself that I can make it to the top or outstanding student. Until now that I am a successful ESL teacher in a foreign land, still I strive even harder to pursue my short and long-term goals in life for me and my family.
