One of my greatest achievements in life is being a teacher in IS. For the past 2 years I was able to enjoy life to the fullest, learn and do what I love most - teaching! I never imagined myself as a good teacher, only the students can answer that, how? based on their performance! good teachers reflects bright students (true!) so skip that one, im not going to blog about good students or me as a good teacher, hic hic! Today all of the staffs recieved their name cards from school. It was kind of late but it’s ok rather than never getting at all. I was sooooo happy to take mine - it’s like an award from a prestigious event, joke! For me, it’s another memorabilia! another milestone, that once in my life i get to participate a great school, where I know a lot of teachers also aspire to be one. I am damn lucky to be here in ISHCMC - lots of reasons…I’m the only Filipino, I’m the youngest among all the staff, I’m the most adored teacher by the students(maybe because my age gap is not that big from them) I’m cool as they say, caring (sometimes) and a lot lot more, nyahahaha! Tell me, I am really lucky right? forgive me, the photo’s blurry - dunno why! i guess because of the print!
Then there’s our leaflet. It’s already out in the market! No! It’s already out somewhere out there…where people can see my beautiful face(the nerve!) no kidding, it’s really out now for parents to browse! When I first saw the leaflet, I was just so amaze - I am part of it, I saw my pic there with my students. The more I became proud of myself. That moment I immidiately asked Tien if I could have that copy for souvenir and she replied “sure, for 10,000 dong” then I replied “price doesn’t matter!” for me it’s priceless…although it’s just a paper for other people, for me…it’s my trophy!
(hanapin nio kung asan ako dito sa pic na me bahay kubo, gudluck!)
Other pages are not that important, wala naman kasi yun pic ko dun!!! joke. Seriously, being an educator is a one tough job! sometimes I complain when its hell week for us! but I still love it!!! Time will pass, things will change, I will be old and may not be funky anymore as students see me, but the passion for what I’m doing will never fade….teachers can’t rest….we should continue to learn and continue to share our great knowledge as we meet new students in our life! wink wink 
I really like her a lot not that she’s nice but really really NICE! we just can’t stop laughing whenever were together at the staff room…gee, I guess some other staff gets jealous because of our closeness! well, well, well, thanks to the high technology now a days, I’ll be able to communicate to her via email and YM, hehe! don’t worry Tien I will always bug u when things get rough to me and I’ll make sure that you’ll never find time to rest because of me, bwahahaha :P I will MISS YOU!
