How kids made me feel young again.
Teaching english for a month now has made me feel like my life is a deja vu every single day. Except that we change clothes. But same room, same schedule, same people. EVERYDAY.
Proofreading almost 20 journals every monday. 12 journals from tuesday to friday. Making 7 weekly tests every week.

haha! (right) Mary the oldest student at the academy. she would
chug all of my coffee every afternoon. she would always
borrow my make up kit and play with it haha!
(from left to right) 1. John, my favorite. Yes I know I'm not supposed to have favorites but then it can't be helped.
He's such a smart boy. 2. Sarah, the bi-polar child. We have this love-hate relationship. She's like this animated
character moving around. 3. Susan sleeping in class. Haha! I allowed her to sleep because we've finished
our lesson early. 4. Leonard. I gave him penalty for sleeping on my class that day because he didn't want to
finish his journals and exercises. I'm not saying that I'm hating the kid, but gahd! he's such a pain in the *ss.
Even if I'm dead tired at the end of each day, all the laughter they're bringing me is just priceless. I know I won't stay here for long, but I'm enjoying my stay here. The kids know when I'm not feeling well. They know when I'm sad, even if I'm not showing it. I feel happy when they say that they have fun on my class. Or I'm their favorite. Even other kids envy my students, they wanted me to be their teacher too.
I'm learning few korean words too. But no one is allowed to speak in korean or filipino at the academy. Well, I think i'm gonna stay here until I figure things out.
