Ouch!

As for a lot of first year students all over the country, last week must have been an eventful time.

I was soo excited to welcome our new first years. Those eager to learn faces. Hmmm soon to be jaded by the hardship of a very trying course. :)

My excitement changed to wonder and then to disappointment. Do not get me wrong. I do feel passionate about teaching these young adults. However there are a few of those who are a bit Duh! "Oh no not this type of students" I sighed to myself. Why so "Skima wan?" (also known as Kiasu attitude or overenthusiastic). Ouch.

Ha ha ha ha. It brought me back to memories of myself. Maybe I was that student as well. I pause to search of memories of me. Ouch again. I was exactly that type of student. ROFL. No wonder Dr. Eevil called me a geek. Oh well. The whole process of going through a degree will soon smooth that one out. Like it did your's truly. Sigh again.

My excitement is back. Wish I did not have to have 2 months maternity leave (I have my own little one soon to care for). I would love to see these young adults grow. Glad to be here for them now.

Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

Yesterday was a wonderful day. My Kiddo had a wonderful birthday with his cousins and girlfriend. hahah not a girlfriend at 3 years old per Se but a friend's daughter. Sigh.. I can smile and I survived. It is six months now.. and we are still living. Thank you God for watching me and my family. Today I am working as I have to meet a deadline. I miss my kids but it is going to be like this for the rest of their lives and my life. There will be times I can spend all day with them and days that they do not see me at all. Tomorrow I know I will have them to myself all day long. So I hope it will be good. In the future I hope to be a better mother to them. I hope that they will have a bright future and have a lot of laughs along the way. Peace to the World.

The biggest challenge

The challenges I had in my life were numerous. I come from a very average family. We had food on the table. We had the hand me down clothes. To aspire for a change in life meant I needed to work harder than I ever did. So I did. I worked hard at school for 5 years to get myself eligible for a scholarship. I faced failure after failure to get a decent grade to be able to continue for a degree. I worked hard to get my postgraduate scholarships. Went through so much downs and still I stood up again to just finish what I started. I stand here now thinking if I did all that why is it so hard to do this one thing. To forgive the unforgivable. My insides are all in pain. I want to set myself free. I want to forgive. I want to move on. Lord God in all my travels and adventure I never stopped talking to you. Today more than any other time I implore you to help me forgive.

Hey lady.. you lady!

Ha ha gotcha... I am not cursing at my life. I am just cursing at my bloody persistent headache. I have been to the specialist and Dr ENT said I had a sinusitis. Uwaaaaa... never heard of that.. Why now Why me.. I need my health to be tip top. That is why I have my headaches, my sinus is infected. Nevermind. That just means I have to work even with this bloody awful headache. Had popped to panadols this morning. Maybe it is past it's due date. I do not notice any relieve of headache. Hmmm... Plus I have to meet the BIG guns today at five. Maybe I should sleep first and rest my poor head. Okay this panadol popping preggy lady will in a nutshell still want to talk about American Idol.. I just can not wait for tonight. Last week I got too busy to mention my lady favourites.. I really like that teeny tiny Filipino girl, Ramiele Malubay, That Asia’h Epperson... her performance was joyful, Carly Smithson really dissappointed me ... I really hope she improves... Syesha was good too.. Com...
