When it was time for the semester break,I was excited not that I could sit and watch the world cup . It's not my cup of tea but maybe if .. just if there were a few cute guys around me, I might consider watching it !!!!
So, back to why I am so excited for the semester break,was because all of us have been working non stop and we were just counting the days where we could just stay at home and relax and yes , go out with friends too.The first few days was ok for me .I slept , ate , went out a bit and I was telling my parents just how lucky I am to have this break.
TOday is Saturday and I am feeling bored already. We can never be happy with what we have right? But then again ,when I go back to work, I will be complaining about how tired I am and I just wish that I had a break .... and I just had a break. Humans are never satisfired no wonder GOD does not want to come down !!!!!
Let's talk about today - Saturday .. take a short nap , wake up shower , blow dry hair...wait , wait ,wait ... Okay time to change and this is where I start to whine and say that I have absolutely nothing to wear !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Done with the clothes , and besides God does not care what you wear as long as you have a good heart.
Then............. time to put on some make up.... minimal is the key word.Comb my hair , same style - Ponytail 101 .Spray some perfume and I am done .With one quick look in the mirror , I am good to go...

Out HE Came
Out HE came and it was dark;
And then there was light which made HIM glad;
Out He came and the sun shone;
For a new day has begun.
Out HE came and dwelled into our hearts;
And as He grew ,HIS spirit rested over us;
Out HE came and lived among HIS people;
For HOPE is the beginning.
Out HE came and sat in the temple;
Scholars were amazed by what they heard;
Who could this be?
The SAVIOUR who is and will save us.
Out HE came and all walked with him;
For LOVE us was all HE did;
Up and down the hill, with the cross on HIS back , HE loved us all.
Out HE came and hung high above;
HE hung high because of HIS love for us;
At last, HE looked to the heavens and closed HIS eyes.

Help !! I am drowning
I have decided to go for swimming lessons and I managed to coax a few of my friends to join in this fun filled activity .We are very excited about it and we even found the IT swimming suit. But for now the standard frog suit will just have to do . Slow and steady we will swim . The reason we are going for swimming is according to my friend , who has done some research says ,that there would be a lot of cute men and the coach is something too !!!!!!
No, the real reason behind all of this is , we want to learn swimming as it is one of the most relaxing activity/sport , call it whatever you like .The other reason is everyone I practically know , knows how to swim and even if I followed them to the pool, I would just sit ........ at the baby pool !!! And also besides that, only the first quarter of my feet goes in . Once again I would start to envy those who could swim . Enough is enough it's high time that I took the tides , waves and all...

Aunty Janet Leoni And Aunty Violet
What does this two ladies have in common;
Very friendly,
prayerfull
strong willed
... and they were best of friends and still are up in heaven.
Let's start with aunt Janet . Aunt janet passed away peacefully in February the 22 nd if I am not mistaken. She was a nice lady . She never forgot our birthdays and one time when I was about to go to work , the phone rang . I remember, it was 6.30 am. My mum picked up the phone and it was Aunt Janet , wishing my mum happy birthday , mum and dad again for thier anniversary and me my birthday . She never failed to touch our hearts on our birthdays.
Then one day , my mum receives a call from her and she wants to know if my mum knew an oldie hit .. it was those one hit wonder tunes and the next thing we knew , they were singing to each other over the phone ... hmm ... she was trully blessed and loved by everyone who knew her .... on the day she passed on , she looked so peaceful. Before she passed away , her dear son told her this ,'Don't worry about me , go if you must'. To everyone , big or small it,they knew her as Nanny . it will always be nanny ...
Aunty Violet -- Dear Aunt Violet were opposite neighbors with Aunt Janet . They became friends and Aunt Violet would always visit her . They would talk and talk . Aunty Violet was a strong willed person and she kept her family together and she did it !! Aunty Violet may be tough but she is a soft spoken person by nature . Each time we would take her to church and rosary sessions.Her grandchildren loved her very much .
She passed on the 1st of June . We were saddened by the news but let's put it this way, she is in a happier place. I remember that she would always share what she has with others and those are the values that she holds very dear . She would occasionally call my mum for a chat and we do try to visit her when we can . The last visit was last year , it was some where around Christmas. We talked , made her laugh .
Her daughter told me that her mother had to go because her husband Michael is calling for her. Uncle Michael is another story all togehter and I just want to say that it has been an honor knowing fine people like them . It was truuly a pleasure being friends with them... may their souls rest in peace .

Mistakes
What I like about teaching is the mistakes that I have made along the way . Why ? I have 18 students in my class and each time when I write the wrong date or day , they will immediately correct me .
I do not know why , some teachers do like to be corrected by their students at all . I do not find it offensive , they are merely correcting you to make sure that you know what you are doing and it's okay .
I know some teachers would scold thier students for correcting them . I find this really dumb . Why ? Just because we are teachers , no one can correct us ? No , it's really okay . Poor kids get an earful if they were to correct their teachers .
When my students correct me, I feel proud , because I know that they are attentive in class . That is what I look for in a class . Not to get the first position in class but all the small little stuff.... I am sure you know what I mean .

WHat am I saying ?
I have always believed that God loves all of us for a reason and that ,HE is always right behind us to give us that extra push.
Eventhough, when I feel like giving up , HE would always be there for me,reaching out to me and ever ready to catch me when I fall. HE has been with me throught thick and thin and HIS love for all of us is universal.I believe that a good deed done will be repaid in full .
Blessings are abundant in my home. With the love of my parents for us girls, growing up has been very calm for me and my sister .We were taught to pray at a very young age. I remember slipping up my Hail Marys and that never stopped me . My mum would make it a point to pray the rosary every Sundays at home and , she would teach us how to say the rosary and even introduced to us new prayes and important ones as well.
We prayed as a family when ever we could , life has been very kind to us and it has brought us close together as a family. From there , we were taught to read the gospel readings , when we went round for rosaries , to other people's houses .
It was simple back then , and the youths in our time were very prayerfull too. We had our moments of parties too , but when it came to prayers , we were number one .
That was then .....
Now.... we do still say the rosary and my sister will say it with her family .We have been faitfull to the LORD .
The youths of today ;
Do not pray,
Do not bring rosary but instead count with their fingers when praying,
Shake legs when praying ,
Talk, giggle and shout when praying,
No respect for the prayer which has been taught to them,
Say prayers for the sake of saying it,
Wears bling blings and compare bling blings during prayer time,
Bring handphones along and leave in between prayers to answer a call,
So where do we go from here ?
It breaks my heart to see, but then again who am I to complain ......

i push myself because.....
i like to simply do it .
i just wanna show off to everyone that i can do it ,
i must prove to everyone that i live for pressure and i need to feel that rush surging through my body ,
i am insane and what ever i do , everyone must be aware of it ,
i am the only one who could do the job well ,
i cannot count on others,
i am the most important being in the universe,
i must always and always prove to others that i am right and the rightous will live long lives ,
i hate the fact that i have to redo and correct other people's mistakes ,
Okay , this is not a hate post or note , it is something just needs to be said . Why I push myself is because I need to simply test myself to just make sure that I can do it .
