Uncle Kracker - Smile

smile

You're better then the best
I'm lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler then the flip side of my pillow, that's right
Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where you send me,
Lets me know that it's ok, yeah it's ok
And the moments where my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Even when you're gone
Somehow you come along
Just like a flower poking the sidewalk crack and just like that
You steal away the rain and just like that

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Don't know how I lived without you
Cuz everytime that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

SURPRISES

Surprise...surprise!
First, Jonathan went home earlier than i expected. So my wishes granted (He was able to attend the graduation ceremony of my K2 Class and he will be joining us in Legaspi). Second, he bought a Japanese table. Anne and I were looking for one, for a long time. Jonathan and I passed by the furniture section at SM, luckily i found one but i didn't buy it then because i was going to ask Ann to buy it. Last week, Wednesday when we went down from taxi, he pulled out something wrapped in carton. I was thinking it was a frame. I did not open it right away because we had some appointments to go to. When we arrived at BH that night, i was excited to see it. Ann, Gay and I were complete for the first time since he arrived (so, the four of us are there). He opened it and SURPRISED! It was the japanese table that we've been looking and longing for! That is also one reason, why he kept on insisting to buy some foods, we end up eating pizza that night! Last surprise, i was awarded as one of the Teacher Excellence for this year! Whoa! I was really surprised because i was the first one who they called, I can't find strength to get up from my sit. I was about to cry, but hold on my tears. I was really happy! What a day! That gave me a reason to take another chance to take compre again. When i failed, i said to HIM that i will never ever take that compre again unless i have a very good reason to do so. I got frustrated when i took it first. Now, it feels like HE is reminding me of what i told HIM and giving me a reason to try it again. hmmm...let met think about it and discern... :)

Ryo

Last Friday was the graduation of my Kinder 2 class. A day before, i cried hard. For a valid reasons...My student Ryo and his Mom gave me a present a thank you because they are going to move to Manila. We went inside the classroom. I sat in my chair, they Ryo gave me a self-made card, with a dedication "We love you Teacher Tina" and pictures of all his classmates in Toga. I wondered how did he come up with picture in toga. Then i remembered i saw his Mom Ms. Hitomi taking picture during the rehearsal. Then one by one his classmates went inside, i started to cry. I was filled with emotions that i can't stop crying. I left the room, went to the kitchen tried to composed myself. But my students followed me, so i went to the CR down stairs and locked myself in the cubicle. T. Keth and T. Nicole followed me, they too cried with me. Then my two parents, went down to checked me to see if i'm ok. They too, cried. Huhuhuhuhu... i was really touched and forever be touched by Ryo. After class, i opened Ms. Hitomi's gift. Again, tears started to fall and i was touched again. He gave me a scarf, this shows how observant she is and that she knew what i am fond of. Even before the school started Ms. Hitomi already made sure that i will tutor Ryo from Tuesdays to Thursdays. Can't imagine that for the whole school year we were together every afternoon to study aside from studying during class. Well Ryo is a wonderful student, he gave me no headache. Fly high Ryo, but keep your feet flat on the ground!

The Man Who Can't Be Moved

Not so good week for me

Things are slowly changing. This week i jogged by myself, I ate dinner alone, i always spent more time doing paper work. It makes me feel more alone and sad. I used to have a companion when i want to jog but because she has extra work to dom her schedule won't let her. This past few days i dine out a couple of nights because i don't want to eat alone. Plus the fact that i am craving for some food which i don't know. Doing school work is not my thing the past few days. I know me, i want to do things in advance ,but really i don't have the strength to finish my "things to do."
I am trying to figure out what's wrong with me...until now i don't know..maybe in the coming days.
