the time of singing has come!

I could not control my tears from flowing down in front of my students.

It's not that I am angry at them. Perhaps I was at that moment. But really, when I think back, I was feeling more exasperated and helpless than angry.

I walked out of the classroom, just like the first time.

Perhaps I am still not as good as I thought I am. A good teacher would probably have better control of her emotions, isn't it?

It did make me feel quite sad... and discouraged, although, if you remember, I was just feeling high on the Spirit last night!

I guess I AM tired. But I got to pull through... All the planning work, the lesson plan, and the lesson preparation.... I need to have more time to do my preparation or else my students can't learn much. I need to stay focused still. Until next week.... it should become better.

I need to rest so that I can have better classroom management. I will rest.... but I got to press on first. At least until this week is over.

Was really feeling lethargic by the time I got home today. But when I saw my new profile picture on my blog: "the joy of the Lord is your strength", these words gave me quite some encouragement.

Facing my work with a smile does give me more strength than facing my work with a frown. Try it!

And when I was thinking whether all my efforts are worth it, I remembered the movie 'Fireproof' when the male lead realised that true love is still making the sacrifice even when most people would reckon it is not worth it.

Jesus did it. I shall learn from His example. :)
