the approach of 2009

it is only 2 weeks away.

and i will be back in school.

when the school holidays first started, i kinda felt like it was sooo long. but now that it is nearer the end of my holidays, i felt a pang of melancholy.

of course the excitement of meeting my students is there but i can’t help but feel a prick of nervousness as well. the challenge of teaching and preparing my students for their exams, the expectation from the parents and also from myself. the constant praises bestowed upon the previous teacher kinda made me feel challenged. i want to be as good if not better.

i aspire to be an educator and nurturer, one who educates and cares.

hoping 2009 will be a great start for me.
