I am in my final three days of work here in Japan when unexpectedly, our head announced that today would be my last. It was yet the first of the last three days!!! I was surprised by what she said but what`s more surprising is that I had a big grin upon hearing the news. I don`t know, it must be the intensive longing of me to come home and be what I really wanted to be… a teacher. Oh what foolishness could this be you might say. Being a teacher in a third world country like the Philippines.
Well, we just can`t control what the inner desires of every person dictate. This maybe is an outburst manifested in the big grin. Though it would mean no income for the coming two days before coming home, it still has a stingy happiness effect on me. I just couldn`t figure and I would not mind it having there either. Life is just so funny I guess.
In three days time, I will be back in my country. God knows what would happen to me there but I will be expecting great things to come. It may not be in the financial aspect but it will be a blast.
OK lng yan teacher here in phils,yan ang kelangan ng bansa natin..actually belib ko sa mga teachers na ga sacrifice pra lng mkashare sa ila knowledge….considerd na as heros na karon..hehehe..wala na patas-anay ug sweldo naa na sa patas-anay daw sa ipon ingon nila..hehhe..

hi! Ingon gani nla, teaching is a calling daw. I guess u have decided to accept that calling and I’m happy for u. At least now, u know where ur heading.Isa pa, makafeel jud ka ug sense of accomplishment pag makita nmo na u have been a part of ur students’ lives, esp pag makagraduate sila.. I agree sa comments sa uban. Dili jud na sa padakuay ug sweldo. Unsaon man na nmo dakong sweldo kung dili sad ka malipay. Bahala na dili kaayo dako dri sa pinas pero at least maenjoy man nmo dra kay naa imo family and friends…God bless to the new chapter of ur life!
