NALEUL IJ-JI MA (DON'T FORGET ME)
NALEUL IJ-JI MA, Korean, which means “Don’t forget me” in English. I saw this when I went to a bookstore and found a Language book. The next day I asked two of my students the meaning of this just to confirm. It’s right. On Teacher’s Day, I will tell each and everyone of them “NALEUL IJ-JI MA.” I will surely miss them.
How time goes very fast. I...

WHAT'S GOING ON?
The year 2011 just begun but then there are a lot of bad things going on already - bombing, dead people and other stuff like that. I’m so pissed off.
There are really advantage as well as disadvantage when you hear or watch news. Bad news makes me weak. I keep on asking, what’s going on with their minds? Do they want attention? If so, all the attention is with them already. Such...

SIMPLE PLEASURES...
Mom, Dad and I just got home from my grandparents’ house (Dad’s parents). It’s my grandma’s 92nd birthday. Can you believe that? She’s 92 already yet she’s still happy about her life. She keeps on smiling and still eats a lot. A very energetic old woman though she sometimes forget things, that’s natural because she’s old already.
There are a lot of...

FASTEN YOUR SEATBELT!
The other day, I had the chance to visit A1 driving school with my co-teacher. I inquired about how much the course is because Dad wants to me to enroll than him to teach me. I wasn’t surprised when I saw how much is it. It costs Php 13,800 for 20 hours and Php 20,000 for 30 hours. That’s the suggested hour for beginners (Manual Transmission). I can’t really afford that....

THERE ARE TIMES...
There are times wherein we’re having a bad day. It’s not happening to me all the time. It depends with the situation and how I handle it. It’s Saturday and obviously my free day, I thought something bad will happen to me that I can’t even put that out of my mind a few days ago.
If something motivates you, you actually feel alive. Suddenly that day I feel tired when I...

“You can’t pull the trigger if you’re not sure that there’s a...”
– These words came up to my mind while watching Shit My Dad Says. I don’t know but it just randomly popped up.
Right now I’m not sure what it means. Maybe it’s about making decisions in our lives. Like the gun, you can’t just easily pull the trigger in front of someone if...

EIFFEL LOVER
Today, I received an Eiffel Tower Photo Diary from my student, Sarah. I didn’t really expect that I will receive a gift from her. I was doing something when she came inside my room. She called me and she’s holding a gift wrapped in a maroon paper. When I held it, I knew that it was a book or something like that because it’s a little bit heavy. ‘A Walk to Remember’...

THE DOG DAYS ARE OVER
December 31, 2010
I went last-minute shopping first with my Mom, Dad and lilbro Pete. Since the color of the year is honeysuckle, I tried to search for anything associated with that color for my outfit. It’s really that every New Year’s Eve I need to dress up. I’m supposed to meet the Polaroid online seller at that mall but I canceled it because she wants to meet at around 8 PM....
