running home

This is what I never miss every single day as I pursue my way home--running from F.Manalo to E.Rodriguez. I don't know what keeps me doing it, I just do it. And as I run I compose what could be worth posting for the day, which I eventually forget upon reaching the keyboard.
Last time I spent some time chatting with my tutee to at least lighten up my spirit, like how I spend the rest of my day, my travel home to tondo, my likes, hobbies, interests and anything. I told her that I visit McDonald's SM San Lazaro often to have my generic snack. Then after the session she asked if the McDonald's I'm eating at beside Goldilock's. I told her yes it is beside Goldilock's. Then I was surprised with her reaction telling me that it is near their place and that they also eat there. Surprise as I am I can't contain to laugh under my breath knowing that she lives in Mandaluyong. Huh! And should I expect her to learn much from me? Of the many chances of having a McDonald's beside a Goldilock's she's affirming it's near her place!
Another classic answer I got from her is that ---
Oh wait I'll give the scenario firts....
She's cursing the scientist for dicovering such volumes of facts which she is now trying to grasp until he reaches BC. Whoa we suddenly had our integration to VE! She's telling that Moses is the first man and not Adam....Why?
Because Moses is older!

Late post

Lemon Popsicle

First day of classes went very well for the K2 students since I’ve taught them already last year. Only four new students came in this school year, one for each section and I think they also enjoyed my classes. Unexplainable feeling surrounds me every time I see them now enrolled on the next grade. And I guess this is what every teacher feel about their students: proud that they’ve taught their students and helped them where they are now. They make my heart so light and made me show my smile and wave my hand everytime I meet them. I believe my teachers are proud of me now also, specially that I’ve joined them in their vocation of teaching. Teaching is not just about feeding the brain but also filling the heart with values and to make our students life-long learners.

Sweet Monday

They’re back! The K2 students flocked about me as they saw me approach their room to fetch them. Greeting me with their sweetest smiles and waving hands they all look proud that they are now in K2. Some climbed on my back some pulled my arms and most of them started telling where they spent their vacations and that they already lost their tooth and that a new one is growing.

My classroom

This is my third attemp to create my second blog. I always get reminded of starting this one everytime I'm with my students or my tutee. I just can't contain the scenarios in my classroom.
