There was a blind girl who hated herself just because she's blind.She hated everyone, except for her loving boyfriend. He's always there for her. She said that if she could only see the world, she would marry her boyfriend.
One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her and so she could see again, including her boyfriend. Her boyfriend asked her,
"Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?"
The girl was shocked when she saw that her boyfriend is blind too, and refused to marry him. Her boyfriend walked away in tears, and later wrote a letter to her saying,
"Just take care of my eyes,dear."
This is how human brain changes when the status changed. Only few remember what life was before, and who's always been there even in the most painful situations.
Life Is A Gift...
Today before you think of saying an unkind word - Think of someone who can't speak.
Before you complain about the taste of your food - Think of someone who has nothing to eat.
Before you complain about your husband or wife - Think of someone who's crying out to God for a companion.
Today before you complain about life- Think of someone who went too early to heaven.
Before you complain about your children - Think of someone who desires children but they're barren.
Before you argue about your dirty house, someone didn't clean or sweep - Think of the people who are living in the streets.
Before whining about the distance you drive - Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.
And when you are tired and complain about your job - Think of the unemployed, the disabled and those who wished they had your job.
But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another - Remember that not one of us are without sin and we all answer to one maker.
And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile on your face and thank God you're alive and still around.
Life is a gift,Live it, Enjoy it, Celebrate it, And fulfill it.

ayem oh ayem~
hold on there for a sec...
AYEM. How do you pronounce the word? Owh, by the way, it's a name, an Orang Asli student of mine.
Last Friday, i had to jaga the RMT *every Friday actually*. So, i had to take the students' attendance and check whether the menu is as stated.
Takpe laaa... I pn went through the name list with other 3 students, one by one, and i came to this name AYEM. Then, I was like,
"Ok, mcm mana teacher nak sebut nama nh?..AYEM as in 'ayerm' eh?'"
Then these three students bantai gelakkan i yang tahap berdekah-dekah th. One of them whom i happen to teach him said,
"Teacher, ayam ada kat rumah saya!"
Then dia sambung gelak sampai nangis2! Cissss!!!
Nak cover malu, i pn kata laa..
"Mana la teacher tau cane nak sebut nama diaaaa..huhuhu"
"AYEM (as in aryaim) la teacher!" and they laughed out loud.
*grrrrr*

Mahu rejuvenate
Cuhhhraazzzyyyy! That's how i'd describe my life for this week. I bet the other teachers too (my school la). Setting up exam papers (four sets, mind u), preparing Folio B, updating headcounts folders, Rancangan Strategik and etc... Returned home from school at 6pm for 3 consecutive days, stayed up till late at night, skipped meals, perut kosong sampai i felt like puking!
Alhamdulillah, i survived. *clap2!* Well, on the bright side, i gain and learn too much from this hectic week. So, ok la kan. Not too bad. If i had not to go through all those torturing experinces, i wouldn't have gained anything.
Today's a Thursday, no school on Friday. Whoaaa, a long weekend!!~~ Mau rejuvenate and mau shopping with my sisters :) Hallu Klang~~!! Hallu KL~~!!

Blogging or Lesson Planning?
'A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.'
-Henry Brooks Adams-
Seems like the temptation to blog is stronger than the responsibility to write my lesson plans for tomorrow's lessons! *promise will do that afterward :p* Well, i came across this quote when i was frantically searching for a suitable and decent quote to include in the school's 'Majlis Permuafakatan bersama Ibu Bapa/Penjaga Murid Tahun 6' brochure.
It hit me hard and made me think in what ways have i influenced my little ones in the classroom? Positive influences or negative ones? So far, were they influenced by the way i talk, the things i said, my dressing code, the knowledge and values that i tried to impart or...i have not an influence on them at all? I think it is rather difficult for me to tell. Yet, i do pray that the influences that i have on them are positive and will help me to become a 'jutawan di akhirat' *quoted from Diha who just recently posted that on her fb*, and not a 'muflis di akhirat'.
Back to the quotation, yeah, a teacher affects a student's life forever. It does not stop there, in between the classroom walls. Knowledge and values imparted with passion, love and sincerity, with God's willing, will help the student to lead a better life. The knowledge will then be passed down from a generation to another, until the end of time.
On the other hand, an irresponsible teacher who teaches 'cincai'ly and irresponsibly, will also affect a student's life by depriving him from the education that he deserves, causing him to perform poorly in examinations, land on a job yang 'kais pagi makan pagi, kais petang makan petang' and end up living a poor life *unless he is hardworking enough to free himself from the misery*.
In addition, students are good observers and they will imitate the things a teacher do or say in the classroom. As such, always watch our actions and words, teachers. Never use foul languages in the classroom, in fact, even outside the classroom. We would not want to create future generation who speak and use foul languages that they have picked from their own so-called-teachers. So, think before we act or say something.
In a nutshell, it's not easy to become a teacher. We have to be responsible in whatever we do, amanah in carrying out our duties to educate the students and we should always portray ourselves as good role models to the students. Integrity matters kerana semestinya we can never tell where our influences stop.
Tak nak la nanti berlaku seperti dua situasi di bawah nh...
________________________________________________________________________________________________
Situation 1
Ali gaduh dengan adik and Ali guna kata-kata kesat yang kurang enak didengar, mak marah Ali and tanya mana Ali belajar all those words, Ali jawab 'cikgu polan pun cakap macam tu dalam kelas, mak!'
Situation 2
Guru kencing berdiri, anak murid kencing berlari.
p/s: I finally chose this quotation for the brochure 'Teachers open the door, but you must enter by yourself' :p
