A False Alarm

2011-02-11T00:04:00.000-08:00

Just last night I've got an email from my brother in the Philippines. It says that we are going to be disconnected because we haven't paid our monthly dues for the house. I was so panicky I forgot that it was already almost twelve midnight. Whew! I said. After chatting with my boyfriend, I just turned off my lappy and doze off til I found myself dreaming again of our house loans, uh oh dear I hope it would be a great day tomorrow. As for today is the first day of our playing idle time since we have a week holiday as our spring break. Hopefully I'd get to accomplish our daily tasks smoothly! Smiles.

What's the Matter with It? :(

2011-01-27T10:43:00.000-08:00

I don't know what happened on his end but he just signed out without even telling me what's the matter? I don't know and I left dumbfounded. I am blank. I cannot speak. I don't know and most of all I don't have any clues of what's going on and what's happening. Should I be treated like this? What would you do if you were in my shoes tonight? uffffff! :(

Just Happy!

2010-05-03T08:27:00.000-07:00

Just today I finally found all my reasons and told her about my future plans for this summer and next year's. I just cannot go on like this, I believe I've already have had enough of things. I've finally said NO and somehow she understood what I meant and never said anything in counter argument with my premises. I hope our friendship would still be preserved and that nothing would change with us. I'm not going to change for sure. I'm still the old me like when we fist met in university. Well, after all, there's only one thing I can say; that is, only change is constant in this world. With this apparently it's happening to us now, not for the worst though but for the best of us both. Smiles. :)

I Really Hate It!

2010-04-29T18:31:00.000-07:00

I've been living alone since I've been infected with chicken pox almost a month ago. I'm so happy that she's no longer hanging out here because if she did until now I'd be always bothered by her peers who I'm not so compatible with. I don't know, I cannot explain it. I just don't like hanging around with them. I think I've only hanged out with them only once in Sealine, a beach almost 30 minutes away from our place. Now that she's not hanging around here and outside our place, there's another pack who's keeping on playing cards and smoking outside. The only and most annoying thing is that they're just so indifferent in using the toilet for every time I always need to clean it before using it and it's not only the toilet itself but also the floor in our flat's living room! Oh dear! :( I really hate this! It just cuts deep into my bones! Urgh! Annoyed.

My Idol is Off for a Maternity Leave

2010-04-26T10:57:00.000-07:00

I'm so sad these past few days thinking of one of my close colleagues at school who's leaving very soon for a maternity leave. She's gonna be due next week and we are now all excited and happy for her. However, I can say that I'd surely miss her a lot since she's the only one who can speak very fluent English among others and most often have pep talks on our break times. From this week on she'd be off and have to prepare for her due date is fast approaching. I'm so happy for her and at the same sad for I'd surely miss her since she'd be coming on the next school year. Sighs.

Oh How I Miss this Blog O'mine

2010-04-23T13:25:00.000-07:00

It's been aeons since I last updated this blog. I've always been missing this one since I've got tons of work to do these past few months. I wouldn't say I promise but I will do my best to update this every now and then. I will share my whereabouts more often and hopefully do it regularly. I will. Smiles. Write soon.

Another It Has Been

2009-10-17T06:34:00.000-07:00

There has been a very long time since I wrote my journal here. I really miss my blogger account and now that I'm at home sweet home I think I can at least write whenever I love to. Unlike when I was still in a foreign country I didn't have ample time to write here. I just love to think that when I'm at home and with my family, I've got nothing to worry about and I'm more relaxed and free. Whew! And the greatest thing is that I've got more time with my boyfriend and family every day. Smiles. Not just only for my blogs though, heheheh.

A Lip-smacking Chow

2009-03-04T20:48:00.000-08:00

It rained the whole day today but that didn't stop me to do what I wanted to do which is clean my room and cook for my meals this weekend and tomorrow. I am expecting a busy weekend for I have to do peer mentoring and team-teaching with our new teacher this month. Tomorrow is the start of my busy week as my days off falls on Wednesdays and Thursdays. What a pity for me! :( Oh well, I think I am getting used to this one since I have this schedule the first time I came here more than a year ago. Today is no exception to my busy days for I have to do lots of things both online and offline. I woke up this morning a bit late coz of the shitty weather we are having this week. It has been raining hard since I woke up til evening while I am writing this entry. I hate this kind of day or should I say it ironically, 'I damn love this day very much!'. Grins.

Oh well, despite the heavy rain and chilly weather, I and my housemate still managed to go to G's place for we had been invited dinner at his place. Gladly we came to his flat at around seven in the evening. We ate much tuna salad with pumpkin soup and tea as starters. Whew! I really had more than enough when I almost finished eating the tuna salad and he served the hot and crispy potato wedges and that beef and mango round thingee. Hahah just invented this word coz I don't know what that was. I just ate it and twas really deliciouso. Indeed a lip-smacking dinner. Smiles. We had of course 'intelligent conversation' while savoring the food for over an hour which makes our mind and stomachs full.

We went home stuffed and we walked slowly home. We arrived at around nine for my housemate had to get some money from the bank nearby. Thank you very much G for inviting us in your flat and of course for the great dinner which you prepared for us tonight. I hope we could cook in our flat as well sometime soon but I think you need to cook for us our favorite pumpkin soup. Grins.

A Sweet Pinch on My Nose

2009-03-01T06:22:00.000-08:00

While watching a video sketch with my early learners this afternoon class, one cute little boy - Tony sat beside me quitely watching the short story which was about a glove puppet meeting his fiends. This was our first lesson and video watching so I expected them to be really attuned to the television. While I was watching I was also singing with it and Tony just came up to me and whispered shhhh to my ears meaning I should stop, hahaha. What a sweat-pea! :) Then, he began to sing it too with the other kids. As soon as the video was over, he stood up and came nearer then pinched my nose as if signaling that he wanted to play with me. My class monitor was so amused at what he did to me. Then, we went back to our classroom. We had a short activity and went out for a ten-minute-break.

This class is so dear to me. They are just so funny and brilliant. I don't have any difficulty teaching them. They are just simply cute happy kids. Smiles. Indeed, I am lucky to have them this term.

Upcoming Speaking Competition

2009-02-28T06:15:00.000-08:00

I had a very awesome class with my early learners this afternoon. They were so receptive to participate in all activities. I played couple of games with them including line games and smack the flashcard. They really enjoyed these while shouting, 'I like + their favorite food or drink'. This is what makes me feel so amused here coz sometimes they couldn't pronounce the exact word. Grins.

From our recent teacher's meeting yesterday, we decided that we only need to prepare an entry for each teacher. I had a hard time thinking it over and over about who's gonna represent my entry. Then a thought crossed my mind when our DOS said to me that he once caught two of my early learners delivering a piece in my room about the snowman action story while looking at the big poster which I hang a couple of days ago. Neither of them knew that our DOS saw them in my room saying the story with actions. This made him so impressed at the two kids which really concretized my decision to talk it over with their moms.

Luckily, their moms were so happy about it even asked for a copy of what to say on the upcoming Speaking Competition this March the 28th.

I am happy though and I know either or both of them could win in that contest. I just hope. I am crossing my fingers now. I know it would be so funny to look at them telling the story to everybody three weeks from now. Smiles.

There are So Many Things to Look Forward to

2008-10-25T06:06:00.000-07:00

Whew! Right now I feel so happy knowing that everything turns out just all right. I know this sounds odd to me that I was dreading before of working with this man all people are afraid to work with but now that we are working with him I personally feel that everything is getting into its own place. I hope nothing changes and everything will just turn out alright. Right now I find all his plans are for the betterment of everyone and that I can every logic he is putting on things. I mean he is just the right man for his job. Oh well, there is a saying which goes, 'You cannot please everybody'. As for me I am pleased. Smiles.

Maria, here you are,,,:)

2008-10-06T08:59:00.000-07:00

This evening, I was so touched to recieve a sweet gift from Venus. She is the most keen student in my class and she is in EL4A now. In my early learner class, my kids know the basics for daily conversation such as greetings, and short dialogues. Among my classes they belong to the late schedule which is at half past seven in the evening. So while she handed it to me, I was so happy and moved at how she managed to say it with a twee. She said, 'Maria,,,close your eyes' and then I closed my eyes. Then, she said open your eyes and when I opened it I saw a crafty well designed fruit shaped like a bird. It's made of carrots and raddish so cute and fresh. Finally, she gave it to me with a smile on her face. I nearly fell into tears when she said here you are and thank you to me. I was so flattered for I know she's happy in my class. Now I can really see her grow both in intelligence and height. Grins.

I would surely miss her as I will go home soon. Huh, so sad. Oh well, it's enough to know them and be with them for more than a year. Thank you so much Venus. Smiles.

Don't Like No Transparencies!

2008-10-04T00:21:00.000-07:00

It just irritates me every time I know an important information late and they would just pinpoint me for taking it too lax with not even asking for feedback or whatsoever. I just hate it! Being transparent at work is a necessity as well for others to know and be updated of the current situation of the workplace. It just irritates me for the blame of not asking for goodness sake! I have so many things to do and with all the tasks they assigned to me I even forgot what my real duties are in the first place. Urgh! More so, I'm just in the middle of great adjustments and everything. Goodness gracious! Well, I think I have to shut up my big mouth now and keep on thinking of positive vibes. Grins. Now, I'm done with my rants...Smiles. :)

So Happy to Have My Days Off and Holidays

2008-09-24T04:17:00.000-07:00

Whew! Today I just hang around the house cleaning and mending some stuffs while slowly preparing for my tour in two days. I had done the part two of my laundry and tomorrow I still have the last part which are my beddings and other stuffs. Whilst preparing these things, I was thinking of buying a new digital camera. I want a new one for my old digicam isn't performing very well these days. It's battery life is gradually waning and I hate it while being afraid it would go off in the middle of the trip. That would be a total disaster for my travel. I just want to make everything sure. I love traveling and I hope I would really have a great time in Beijing this Saturday. I'd get as much photos I can since I am getting more passionate about taking 'good' shots most especially on gardens and landscapes. Smiles.

I Think I'm Loving this Blog!

2008-09-17T10:31:00.000-07:00

I've been very busy these past few months because its peak season. I have to really concentrate on my tasks and that means sacrificing my blog updates that is why I've just got back to the normal schedule for this term. Autumn term isn't very busy for us at school and I have ample time for myself and my blogs of course. Now even its dawning in my place I am still up and about writing something here. I feel like not just sleepy without dropping some thoughts on my blog especiall for this one. Smiles.

Too Excited

2008-09-16T07:36:00.000-07:00

Next week would be so exciting for me since my vacation starts on Tuesday and happily today I've booked my planned tour to two wonderful cities in 12 days. I hope I could make the most out of my holidays. I am always up to adventure and I hope it would be for real adventure this time that I chose to be alone in my travel. Of course it's a tour with other people but I would be going with people whom I don't even know. I hope somebody does speaks English so my journey wouldn't be so boring. Grins. I just hope at this time I am so excited and I can feel my mind is so restless. I've surfed the net about these two magnificent cities - Beijing and Anhui. I'd be staying in Beijing for five days and I've got to go back home after that rest and then go back to travel to Anhui to visit the most beautiful mountain in China. It is apparently called the Yellow Mountain, Huangshan is really the tallest and the most breathtaking scenes are seen at dawn. I hope I could see all these when I get there. Smiles.

I Love My New Blog Template

2008-09-16T07:30:00.000-07:00

I haven't updated this blog and I've been missing this all these times. Now that my schedule permits me to visit all my blogsites I decided to change my template for this blog. I won't change this one maybe this could be my permanent template from now on. I just simply love this one! Smiles.

Schedule Update

2008-06-26T18:33:00.000-07:00

These days I'm really caught up with a very tight schedule only for this summer term. I have to work for six days a week with only one day off and that's on Sundays. Sad. Though this is my schedule for this term still I have more ample time for myself watching some films which is my recent pastime here. I am keeping myself more that busy as what I can think of to make me more preoccupied as expected. In this way, I could forget all the things I miss home. Yes, I am far from my comfort zones now as I venture myself into a foreign country as a way of fulfilling what I want in my life. Travelling is one of my passions in life and I have realized it here as I travel quite often to other nearby cities like the busy and highly industrialized Shanghai and the alluring Hangzhou city where all lovers dream to be wed Right now, I am planning to have a holiday in Beijing in the coming national holidays as this is one of the longest holidays here I want to exploit as much as possible. Smiles. I hope I could have my friend Chilloz with me at that time before I would go home soon. We decided to go there and have a relaxing holiday. I hope she'd be free on those times as she is working 24/7. Indeed a busy career woman. Smiles.

Surprised! Whew!

2008-05-18T08:25:00.000-07:00

In our lives we experience times that we are really happy – not excited or surprised but total happiness we feel within. This afternoon’s class was not that really that total happiness I’m talking about here but it is worth mentioning here. I had a class of teenagers and obviously they are those who are so conscious of their actions. I was just so surprised seeing them running as part of our school activity this afternoon. We had an adapted Olympic torch relay this afternoon since almost all of us weren’t able to watch the real Olympic torch pass by Wenzhou City yesterday. More so, my class won the first to the third place in the race. Whew! Really they were so proud of themselves while striking a pose for group pictures. Smiles.

Xiandu Mountains

2008-04-27T11:07:00.000-07:00

The trip to Wuyi City has made me feel so relaxed and it was really a great adventure to climb high mountains such as the Furong Gorge and Xiandu Mountains. Truly it tested my endurance and power to climb up the rocky trails and steep foot paths along the gorgeous mountains. Among other mountains that we climbed, Xiandu Mountains were the most beautiful and its scenery offers more than a place to relax and unwind. Furong Gorge tested our will power to go on and agility to manage the very steep climb.

However along the way up we saw many exhilirating sights like the fresh water ducks swimming with the little birds, whew that was completely awesome! I of course took loads of pictures along the way and it served as memoirs whenever I want to go to places like those mountains. When we reached the mountain top, we were catching for breath and immediately we drunk cold water and with the other staffs and teachers we had our best pose ever. Such as those were posing as if we were flying and those other crazy stuffs but twas really cool the guys posed as if they were about to jump down the mountain! Twas really breath-taking. Smiles.

All I can say is that that place was just really worthy to explore for its serenity offers more than peace of a troubled mind. Indeed we relaxed for almost more than two hours on top just chatting and feeling the cool wind touched our cheeks. The silence there gave me even more time to contemplate on my life and how am I doing it until now. I found complete serenity there and if I'd ever be given a chance to go there again, I surely will. It was such a fulfilling climb and I won't forget all of those experiences with my friends, the school staffs, and colleagues who were so funny.

After all, we shouted 'We made it!' aloud on the mountaintop, whew! and one of them shouted 'I love you!!! can you hear me???' Oh well, his girlfriend was just by his side. So sweet and memorable indeed! Smiles.

Trip to Wui

2008-04-20T08:48:00.000-07:00

Everyone is pretty excited today while discussing the things to do in a place where there is the most famous hot spring here in my place - Wui. It's a three-hour-ride by bus from my place. We are guessing that almost all of the teachers are coming to that organized trip. They said it’s a nice opportunity to get to know others in the other school. My housemate and I are going to that trip since it’s just a short distance and they also cancelled all classes on Wednesday, woohooo!

We are pretty excited by now. We shared ideas on what to do in there and what to bring and things like that. Francis, the Irish guy also coaxed us to come and enjoy the upcoming trip. Upon hearing the great things told by my students too then finally I said yes and now I am getting ready for it. Surely I will bring my digital camera and will be taking loads of picturesque views in that heavenly place as they describe it.

I just hope that everything is going to be fine on that day – the weather, the people, the place, and everything. It pays a lot to go sightseeing on a fine day and I am hoping it to be like that. Thinking the activities by now – massage, relaxing bath in the hot spring pools, and sightseeing are really motivating factors for me to be thrilled about it.

How about you? What makes you excited these days?

Excited to Know

2008-04-14T05:51:00.000-07:00

This afternoon while I was chatting over the net with my friend in Zam, the phone rang and I hurriedly picked it up only then to know its my headmaster. Without any hesitations, he immediately asked me how I'm feeling now since I have been sick these past few days. He then asked me if I would really go to the company's tour this coming 22 and 23. I said YES I am excited about it and I would surely go with them. Thinking of the next escapade is much more exciting than the time when I went to HK all by myself. This time I am going with my all my colleagues on a tour near Shanghai. I am still wishing now that we can stop by or push through going to Shanghai and go sightseeing. Well, even then, I am still EXCITED!

I Am Happy Yet Sad

2008-04-08T02:42:00.000-07:00

These past few days I have been coughing a lot due to this crazy weather here in my place. I blame this to the weather because it's really freaky and unpredictable I'm surprised it rains in the afternoon after such a very warm morning. Despite all these, I consider myself happy because I can now surf the Internet anytime I want to. No need for me to go to the nearest netshoppe to rent and chat with my family and friends. Recently I have bought my dream and directly applied for its Internet connection. Now, I am happy with what I've got!

I Am Sad

2008-04-06T04:52:00.001-07:00

Though I have bought my precious dream today and I am indeed happy, I have not really touched nor used it now since it has to be configured first to have an English version of its O.S. Gosh!

Amazing Afternoon with May

2008-04-02T05:44:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was really fantastic for me and my friend May. I met her in Wenzhou, it is a city 45 minutes ride by bus from my place. She is just simply a good-natured lady I admire the most. I met her in December last year before Christmas. She is working in KFC Times Square. I went there to eat and she started talking with me in Chinese and I didn't get it. Instead, I started to talk in English and that was the start of our friendship.

Since then, we often exchange emails, calls, and text messages until we decided to spend more time with ourselves yesterday. She toured me in her university which really is just so wonderful and heavenly. I couldn't put into words how I felt when we strolled around the peaceful university city.

We walked through the beautiful landscapes and intricate buildings designed like in the west. I feel like I am in another country. I am really amazed at how lucky I am to have found this beautiful person in this foreign land. I would surely love to spend more time with her travelling in different cities near our place. Next trip, as planned, is in her hometown. I am really excited for it.

I Just Cannot Get Behind That!!!

2008-03-25T02:12:00.000-07:00

Every time I can see you spitting and then you are using plastic gloves while eating fried chicken, I just cannot get behind that. And the moment you walk down the road to buy some stuffs in the supermarket or inside the department stores with your sleeping clothes on. And not just that, you are wearing your high heels with it! Totally, it's funny to look at but if it's your comfort, then, I just cannot get behind that! :D

A Lot More to be Thankful About

2008-03-24T01:42:00.000-07:00

I am most thankful for the people who hurt me for they are the ones who make me strong. I am most thankful for the people who ignores me for they are the ones who make me realize that I cannot please everybody. And most of all, I am most grateful for those people who make me realize that love is indeed a blessing and a wonderful feeling - they, he [mytatay], and HE.

Afternoon Fun

2008-03-09T08:08:00.000-07:00

"Three hours left! And I'm going home!", happily said counting the minutes and hours left for me to go home and drop by the netcafe for my off-school business. I couldn't completely think until now that I finally made it through with my prob middle school studes. I couldn't find suitable enough games and styles for them to learn new things. I would always find myself looking for more when it come to their class. But, this afternoon's class is completely different from the other past weeks that we had since they were so aggressive, open to any games and activities, and I could see that they were having fun while playing Pokemon V2 and the so-called Eternal Paper Switch. At least for the most part they compensated my efforts of preparation last Friday. Finally, they bid sweet goodbyes to me when the clock ticked quarter past six o'clock.

Spring Term Onset

2008-02-25T06:13:00.000-08:00

Last weekend was really taxing for us at school since the new term has just started last Saturday and Sunday. We had a tough days' work with new and old students alike since it's their first day of school after their long vacation since Chinese New Year. I felt like physically tired but as an overall, I am totally tired since I can feel the fulfilment within me seeing the kids eye's that they really enjoyed the class and bid sweet goodbyes after each class. It's a total pat on my tired shoulders. And my toddlers yesterday were so naughtily smart with the games that we played all throughout the one-hour class. I felt like not stopping the one-hour fun-filled session with those cuties.

Great Day!

2008-02-25T06:07:00.000-08:00

Yesterday was really a great and challenging day for me since I had four class in a row for the whole day. I had two toddler classes in the morning and in the afternoon I had one elementary class and one middle school students class which made me terribly tired after the day's hard work. I worked at the same time had fun games with the kids. For the most part, we don't undersatnd each other but what is more fulfilling is that they managed to try to understand me through sign language and with the help of the other school staffs. After school, I directly went home around half past six and did the laundry which made me sleep at little late last night.

Afternoon Chat

2008-02-19T01:33:00.000-08:00

This afternoon I chatted with my other two friends here and I really had fun time talking with them using voice chat. I am really happy to know they are doing great job while having fun in their respective workplaces now. We talked with a lot of things such as lovelife, family, and travel experiences. I spent a few coins but I enjoyed my time in the netcafe. :)

Good Laugh

2008-02-18T02:50:00.000-08:00

This afternoon I chatted with my former colleagues in the Philippines and it is good to know that they are all doing good at work and in their lives. We had a fun time chatting and talking about our whereabouts. It really feels so good everytime I chat with them. Laughing is indeed the best therapy for a weary heart as well as having a sound mind and body.

Something to Look Forward

2008-02-17T04:22:00.000-08:00

This afternoon I went online to check some emails and I found out that most of my emails are from my interested friends who are now processing their papers to work here. Speed up your applications friends! I am now very excited to see you all here. And when I logged on to YM I got more chat windows from my friends who are so eager to ask me how tos in coming here and the like stuffs. The chat today makes me more busier than any other days this week.

Gladly

2008-01-31T23:02:00.000-08:00

This morning class was quite fun with the kids. At first I was worried a bit because only one of them came early - Frank, the smartest kid in my class. Every time I have this kid in my class, everything would be just right and definitely exciting. Whew! He is just the right motivating factor to have in such a boring class. I am glad to have him in my class. This afternoon the monitor asked me of how he is behaving in my class as well as with my other kids. I told everything - perfomance in class, behavior, and some recommendations for the parents to do at home with their child. After a few minutes, the monitor came inside the office and told me the parents' feedbacks of their child. It was positive and I was happy to know that Frank is so eager to come to school. He even woke up early one Wednesday morning just to come to school early when in fact it was our day off here. Chuckles A pat on my shoulder indeed.

MoRnInG fUn (; )

2008-01-29T00:19:00.000-08:00

This morning grade 2 class was really fun and a moment to cherish with my kids. Indeed I got their attention through the paper money that I used while playing games with them. I played jeopardy with them which they liked and they even wanted another few rounds after the break. Precisely because they wanted to get the big snickers bar which I promised before I started the class. Whew! Though I was quite freezing in the class this morning, somehow their energies and eagerness to learn lit up the coldness of the classroom.

Fancy Feeling

2008-01-22T02:10:00.000-08:00

Last night, I dreamed of having a cute pup which really licked all over my face. It just wants me to stroke it's fur. After that I woke up and it was half past three in the morning. I suddenly remember my friend who for such a long time haven't communicated with me. And just this morning I checked all my emails and I got a message from her! whew! I am so happy for such a long time at last she sent me an email. Every now and then I always have this fancy feeling of knowing some things will happen and most often it is true...I just don't know why but I can feel it...:) Have you had felt a fancy feeling in your life? :D

the beauty of language differences

2008-01-08T02:46:00.000-08:00

Just this afternoon I went to a nearby fastfood chain here in our place. I liked to converse with the crew there but I cannot since I don't know how to speak their tongue and they cannot speak in English either. So, I just ordered my food with body and sign language which is understandable by everyone. I hope I could speak their tongue soon so I won't just smile and answer I don't know or walk away. But there is the beauty of our language difference which is our friendship. By their mere smile and friendliness, I know they understand me and is willing to help me. That is the most important - understanding each other.

The First Sunrise of 2008!

This morning I went with my friends - Anelie and Peter to a nearby mountain - Wansong Mountain near our place. We spend time together watching the first sunset of 2008! whew twas really cold and freezing I want to go back to my bed and sleep,,,:) We witnessed the first sunrise of this year. I am glad though that I came with them this morning though I suffered my sleeping time. I really enjoyed the climb with them and I felt fulfilled after watching the sunrise. It brings us new hope and positivity for the entire year. As we went up the mountain [this is the highest mountain of our place] I saw many people usually old folks around town exercising and stretching their limbs. It seems that these people are really early wakers and they really value health. Well, as I asked my Chinese friend Peter why is it so,,,he answered, "Health is wealth". I was so amazed at their free water and tea [Chinese herbal medicine] which is good for the body. As we went down the mountain, I met many people doing Tai Chi, dancing with the music and I saw other women with their fans dancing the Chinese fan dance, I guess. I found this place very interesting for I am a foreigner here; I still have to know many things especially how to speak their tongue,,,so I could haggle and make more friends.
