Teaching 2009-2010 -- Year 1
After attending graduation and leaving the ceremony for Walnut High School’s Class of 2010 a mix of thoughts and emotions ran through my mind and my heart. Being in this position of graduation is just really something different. I attended before as a student, a family member, a spectator, but this time I came as a teacher.
Walking away from the cap and gowns, smiles, hugs, and pictures...

Being a "Miss": A Toast →
Ah yes, moral development in public education. What a challenge to parent a child and teachers have the responsibility and opportunity of ~150 day in, day out. good post tiffany, I couldn’t have put a year’s experience like that in better words, Amen.
Today the seniors were toasted to by the school and they in return gave a toast. Having only taught them for less than a year and...

My first encounter with fireflies occurred many years ago in North Carolina. My dad was at NC State finishing his Master’s in Computer Science, I believe, and we lived in some apartment. I’m told my mom and I used…

I have always hated my cantonese heritage because of my experiences throughout high school of my relatives’ social skills. That was also before I was Christian. But this is just ridic…………yeaaahzzzz. PTL for Hong Kong people.

WOOO! Oh M. Night, I’m even more excited than you! Jk, that might be a stretch har har har!

Amazing. GLORIOUS! *Sigh*...

Paradigm Shift #1
I wonder if I can collect enough of these to have an actual series, so by faith I will call this #1.
The more I am “growing up” with my endless responsibilities, the more realize I’m learning the lesson to ENJOY LIFE.
A New Time Has Come
I had a really stimulating conversation with Joe and Henry today. I learned a lot about myself by just voicing thoughts of my life I have in my head constantly. When I mean that I learned a lot, I don’t mean it where I have to caps lock it as emphasis. I would describe this level of learning is where I reached a point of realization that I need to stop over-thinking too much. This is a...

Whoa...Reality Check
I just had one of those moments where you forget who you are for that one second..(not metaphorically speaking) Not quite sure how to describe this feeling.
I was in the middle of working through my million of things to do list while eating my gummi worms, chips, and coke to satisfy my “finals week cravings” (even though I’m not in finals week). I was just kind of day-dreaming,...
Alliances--Twilight?
Today in my World History class I was teaching about European alliances before WWI and the purpose of an alliance. It went a little something like this.
Me: So an alliance is a close association of countries for a common goal. Do you think any of you guys have alliances today?
Student 1: Our friends?
Me: Yes, very good, your social circle definitely is one.
Student 2: Would it be like Team Edward vs Team Jacob?
Me: UM, WE ARE GOING TO LEAVE THAT OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM PLEASE.
*Class bursts out in laughter*
We always over-think and under-pray when we should over-pray and under-think.

JUMBLED.......
dang i had this post, but it got kind of extensive, and thoughts were all over the place, so I’m going to have to filter it through on another day. I definitely know that I really suck at expressing my thoughts in words. I also feel indifferent when I make my comments on Bible passages if I stray away from the context of the passage. Not that I’ll take it out of context, just that my...

Is it me...?
So I’m here on a Saturday night at home grading these tests, “Unit Assessments” of my 3rd period World History class. This is not your typical 50 question multiple choice, but instead my Master Teacher and I thought it would be good to test/assess the students’ knowledge of the Industrial Revolution by creating a newspaper editorial. This allows them to communicate their...

Tonight, as I was packing up all my belongings to move to Irvine, I came face to face with a subtle reminder about the importance of this coming year! So, like I said, I was collecting a hodgepodge of things to bring with me to irvine. For just a quick illustration, I’m going to list out a few things of what I brought; I brought two cartons of...
