Remembering Mrs. Dorado...
I won't forget Mrs. Dorado my teacher in Grade 1....coz she was my teacher in Grade 2 as well....She was able to follow my improvement for 2 years....She was also the one who took me in after being rejected^^from a former teacher when I was just starting out in school^^(although I think that I deserved to be rejected^_~) ....That's how it feels when you are accepted for what you are, even learning the most difficult things in life becomes easier when people believe in you....at that age I was just around six to seven years old yet I knew how it feels to be loved and be accepted already.....
I'd like to believe also that I had somehow built self confidence in my students just like the late Mrs. Dorado....Things become a lot easier to all of us no matter what undertakings we have in life if we let other people and our own students believe in themselves....

My inspiration...LOVE
When I was in sixth grade, that was a long long time ago^^, I remember that we were given some pocket bibles from missionaries upon our graduation day....and one of the missionaries told us to read the bible during our summer vacation and I did.... I had the chance to read about love on Corinthians and ofcourse never really understood what love is at that time and all I can do is just tell everyone when asked to define love that love is not selfish.....As I grew older it meant more aside from that it is being unselfish.....It has guided me in my everyday life as a source of inspiration.....having love inside you will humble you as well.....You will be inspired to see the goodness of your neighbor and learn to respect and accept him, and trust him that he could be good as well, that he has the capacity to respect and accept other people as well.....Love will make you see that the other person is inspired by love or could be inspired by love or could be capable of spreading love.....I read about this that a person no matter how bad he is still somewhere inside that tough heart of his, there is love even if he denies it in himself.....deep inside of him yes he has love....He just needed someone to make him realize that he has it.... The missionaries had somehow helped me through the years to keep my faith in love.....

True Capampangan^^
Just wanna share some funny stuff with you tonight^^....We Capampangans have this problem on diction....as when we mean the sound or the letter P we often would use the letter F instead of the P....and also we do not have the H sounds on some words that should have the H^^....or we often have no H to those that needed to have H.....
Once a friend of a friend told me a funny experience she had with the letter P....My friend was encouraged to forget about her problems by forgetting the past.....Her friend said to her....."Laura you know there's no need for you to become so sad.....(my friend became so serious and is beginning to see the light).....and her friend continued by saying "forget about your problems, fast is fast".....and so instead of trying to really grasp what her friend was saying she suddenly burst into laughter^^
Another one was a funny experience my sister had with her former student when she was still teaching at HAU....Her student volunteered to sing to the class when they were having some fun in school.....and he sang Depeche Mode's Somebody.....Everyone was so attentive when the student sang because he really had a great voice and the student sang with so much passion....but while he was singing Somebody.....that goes....
I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who'll stand by my side
And give me suffort
And the class forgave him for that because he was really so full of passion while singing......but then he continued with....
And in return
She'll get my suffort
Haha and he continued singing , never minding how he had said the F instead of the P coz it wasn't intentional on his part.....Me too sometimes I accidentally ^^use the F with P or vice versa^^
And lastly there were sales representatives in our school last Friday....they were endorsing the product Vita Plus.....This medical supplement is a herbal medicine with lots of cure or treatment although one of the herbs mentioned can make your libido active.....So my co teacher said it is nakaka L, meaning it makes your libido active....Tita Zen said "wow so it can make your L(said it as EL) active"...So they laugh at her because she's already in her 60s.....So another co teacher mentioned how romantic Tita Zen is.... so she said....."Oh no Tita Zen is telling us that the Vita Plus makes your HEL so active (she meant the L or libido haha ^^)....Yes we can't help it.....Our being Capampangans would still show especially in our use of the English language or even the Tagalog language.....
