"Jesus said: You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you." (John 15:16)

Far, far, far too soon!


I cry out to the Lord, I pray to the Lord for mercy. PSALM 142:1

Today is the last day of holiday before the new semester starts. I am feeling excited and a little bit anxious about starting the school term. One of my colleagues mentioned that after going back to the fishing village she is teaching in, seeing the students she teaches on the street reminds her that it is not a dream. She really is a teacher!

I wonder if all new teachers feel that way too. I am back in the village I am teaching in a few days ago and a few of the students I taught last year met me on the way to the pasar malam. They raised their hand from afar and nod their head slightly, addressing me “Teacher!”. I smiled back and was actually at a loss for words. Deep inside, I shuddered, thinking to myself that: my gosh, I am coming back to these kids and this village. It is not a bad feeling, but it just so happen to make me shudder.

Well, school starts tomorrow, so I better straighten things up! It’s going to be great tomorrow!

I have gotten ready... my stationery box!

Our classroom values flash cards!


Our 4 steps to class!


Our student survey!


and last but not least our can you find my name word search puzzle!
  
There is still so much wok to be accomplished but I guess now that I have my classroom goals ready, it should be less difficult to keep everyone on track!

March on to a brand new semester!
