Diary: Bumpin' on a Rainy Day

-
I feel like it's my free time.

I'm burdened with a lot of school admin work to do, a lot of forms to fill out and papers to check and what the heck, why am I doing this?! I should be blogging. Lol.

I certainly need a break on the first day of the month. Hehe.

Hello July!

How was the first half of the year?

1. I'm still struggling with what classroom management style to apply to the kids.
2. I'm still having a hard time framing my lesson plans and making visual aids. But thanks to MS Publisher for making my life a bit easy in making posters and banners and lettering stuff.
3. I'm still trying to cope up with a lot of changes in my life.
4. I'm still having a hard time sleeping at night.
5. I'm still hopeful that everything will be alright.
6. I'm still praying every single day that Bee won't totally crash and leave me. I cant replace him yet.
7. I'm still working on creating a daily routine for myself.

Good thing my cousins are around. Being with them and just being inside the car on the weekends for a roadtrip is a great way to just breathe and be away from major stressors. Eventhough I am not a Catholic myself, I had came to acquire my cousins' fascination with old churches, and our latest trip brought us to Liliw, Laguna--the famous Red Brick Church.
Lol. Di pa ako marunong, bago ang lens ni Macky at first time ko magamit dito kaya labo-labo pa.

The heavy rains wasn't able to stop up from going down south. 

Destination: Liliw, Laguna.

There are also giant shoes and sandals every where!


Not just for your foot, but for your entire body as well! 



But this name of a store really caught my attention:


The town would have been a great heritage place to visit. There are still houses made of tisa and other hispanic era edifices.This place surely had very rich history and culture.

Our Laguna trip is not complete without our favorite Kinulob na Itik :)


Last stop was at Sampaloc Lake, but due to the heavy downpour, our planned picnic was cancelled. But we went there anyway. Stopped for probably 30 minutes, then headed back to Manila.

    May similiarity ang first part nitong post mo sa post ni Archieviner, the first half of the year! Nag-usap ba kayo? hahaha May checklist din sya eh.

    Hmmm been to Liliw, pero parang wala akong nakitang malalaking sandals na yan, siguro ginagawa pa lang

    Nakapunta na rin ako sa Lake na yan pero saglit lang din kaya di masyadong nag "sink in" kaya di ko maalala kung maganda ba o sakto lang hahaha

    Travel travel din ah!

    Teacher ka pala eh di follower mo na ako. Hindi ko alam kung may samahan ba ng mga teachers that write or post blogs. Gusto kong makisali so I will learn from all of them including you. Ganda pala sa Liliw, mapasyalan nga. Pareho tayo, kapag stress, layas lungs!

      Salamat :D first year of teaching ko this year! I am in contract to teach for two years and hopefully, until I retire with great stories and amazing impact on every child. Ambitious as it may seem, pero yun tlga ang dahilan ko kung bakit ako nagturo.

      Yes.. kapag stress, go lang kung san-san :D

      May mga pina-follow akong mga teacher blogs based from US and UK sila, dito sa pinas, si teacher mots, si teacher afterthoughts at ikaw :) hehehe

The Man Behind the Metaphors

The skies had been dark like a storm is coming. It had been raining the whole night long and when I woke up that day, I had fears that Sir Jonathan can’t come to school anymore due to the heavy downpour. I opted not to ask for I may just get the dreaded response. I prepared for school. Ate breakfast, brought my laptop since I thought I may just have to stop by a coffee shop after school and finish the item analysis I am doing. It was very difficult to get a ride. I wish I can afford to buy a car and save myself and my stuff from getting wet and so that I can bring more things to school for experiments and so that I can to all the places I wanna go to and I don’t have to worry about over-packing stuff and I have thought about all of these just because its raining heavily and I have no school bus anymore L When I arrived, the school seem deserted. No kids nor parents were at the gate. The guard told me that the principal decided to suspend the class lest the heavy rains cou...

11 Things I Will Miss

Malapit na malapit na! Magpapaalam na ko sa pagkabampira. Ang pinakaunang kong career ay nagsimula sa BPO hanggang sa napadpad na ko sa mga “captive sites” companies, at hindi ko ipagkakaila ang malaking pasasalamat ko sa   pagkakataong naibigay sakin sa loob nang mahigit anim na taon. Marami akong natutunan, maraming nais kalimutan at syempre mas marami yung nais kong manatili lalo na yung pagkakaibigan at mga aral sa buhay na nabuo habang ako'y nasa trabaho at nakikisalamuha. Dahil ako ay magbabagong-buhay, nag-isip ako ng mga bagay na talaga namang mamimiss ko pag umalis ako sa pagka nocturnal being. 1. Airconditioned Office - Ang init ngayon! Obvious naman, ang mga callcenters/corporate centers ay may aircons, may alam ba kayong hindi? Ipagbigay alam sa kinauukulan.  2. Ergonomic Chair - na most of the time ay ergonomic bed na din. Natuto akong matulog nang nakaupo.--those split-second moments of opportunity para makadaupang-palad si Sleep.  3....

Just a few days ago, I posted   This Is Plagiarism   together with other write ups. And I never thought I would have this kind of Reply from   Mr. Tripster   J   who called himself   The Epaloid Lover na Feeling Ako Yung Sinulatan Here’s the entire comment: Mr. Tripster 14 March 2013 08:39 This is epalness.... Hi! I'm fine. It's really great to hear from you. I'm not trapped in the future, I do not dwell in the past. I'm simply in your dreams. You have difficulty finding me because you sometimes look in the wrong places and in the wrong moments of the day. Therefore, I cannot manifest in your world. My present is a blur and yet it's blissful. But everything will be clear if we both make a decisive choice and a giant leap of faith in our lives. How soon? I really don't know. We don't ask silly questions. It's just that sometimes we need wisdom. I'd like to be there now. But I'm no master of my time. I'm n...
