A Career Path

  Thirteen years had passed, when I finished my teaching degree in a State College. I successfully passed my board exam and became a licensed teacher.  The journey of being a teacher is sometimes thrilling and sometimes it is stodgy. Sometimes I caught myself getting stuck of my place and feeling sufficed of just being an unexciting teacher in the four corners of the room. I usually feel this way when  I am giving out of ideas yet I do not want to run my class with a boring lesson .The children  are keeping on incumbently  answering their workbooks and test papers ,  as  the easiest way to put up with the students in a noiseless class.

My Special Day

 Every year our age is adding and we cannot hold it back. Today is my birthday and I am 35 years old. I love the five attached with my birth age.

Hard Days

This is my first time to write a blog. I often write down my thoughts, fears, and dreams on my diary. Yeah... I think I  am a bit older to keep a diary now that I am a Mum.

Hard days... hard up. working and back pain .. lots of pain...  my body keeps aching.. yelling at me! Hey! I am tired, why don't you take some rest. I  can't. I need to work hard. I need to keep my job. I need to provide for my family needs. I am a Mum.. a mother.. who needs to sacrifice a lot...because I am a woman. A woman that should be strong to keep everything in order, balance, and lighten up the home of my family. I tried to complain that hard days are getting heavier but mothers like me answered the same thing  because , " You are a Mum"..." That's Mum!" This is Mum's life. It is overwhelming, bigger to its word, yet meaningful.
