Teaching

There's a dark side and a bright side to teaching. i believe one requires a lot of patience and endurance to be a teacher. there are frustrating moments when you try to make students understand what you teach and they don't seem to get it. there are rewarding moments when students come to you after an exam and say "miss, thank you for being my teacher." or even after their results, "miss i passed, miss i got first..." so on and so forth. i believe the utmost quality in a teacher is to connect with the students, try to put oneself in their shoes and understand their level of grasping things. Teaching by choice, teaching by passion is the best way one will never get sick of teaching...
In this note, i would like to thank my teachers of UA for making the person i am today...

incredibly naughty students that i taught while doing my part time job in UA early
2010

life's a blessing in a way for me. i believe what ever happens, happens for a reason. you may not know that but with time you realise, "yes that is true". i had good times, bad times, easy moments, tough moments, happy memories, sad memories but on goes life. you go with the flow i guess.

As Beautiful as the Autumn...Let no one ever take this kindness from you!

Autumn Beauty

the sky is as clear as ocean blue,
and today has been a great day.
living a positive life.
leading a hopeful attitude.
i stare out of my window.
the grasses aren't lush green anymore.
autumn has fallen in
but along with it brought beauty.
the trees have shed their leaves,
flowers have withered away,
but the beauty of the fallen autumn leaves couldn't challenge the cold i have to bear :)

Irresistible Autumn Beauty

15th May, 2011

As the morning rays,
Penetrate through my window sill,
my eyelids slightly jerk;
am i still dreaming
or have i awaken
from the lovely dreamland.
as i lay cuddled in my warm quilt;
i want to sleep a little more.
but time has taken toll and
i have to rise up.
i hug my teddy and wish him a "Good morning".
"it's yet another wonderful day," i say to myself.

The Best Pal :)

How many times do you get to meet good people in your life? i reckon it would be one in a million but i was lucky enough to have met such a pure person. she's just like an angel filled with compromise, sacrifice, sincerity, punctuality, hard work and above all honesty. i have come across people who pretend superficially to be good just to impress others but in her i have seen some thing like a miracle that distinguishes her from all the people.
yes, she's the best pal i ever met after arriving in Australia. Wish you happiness always Diep :) Always stay a true person like you have been :)
