    It’s November, and the weather in Thailand has been chilly. I actually love it as it reminds me the Christmas season in my country in the Philippines.

Almost 7 months…it seems a year since I left Philippines, and yet I feel that things are just happened yesterday. Time really flies!

I like Thailand – the fact that it’s closer to the Philippines, the weather is just almost the same and people are just like Filipinos,

Deriza Husnu Maab and Qinaya Adnina become inspirations of my life. nice, smart, funny, what I see everyday. with a big hope in mind, they will be very usefull to others someday. come on kids... smile to the world and the world will smile to you..

The traditional drum from Arakan
My Dear, please come and play (it)
The flower of Royal Orchid, “Tha Zong Pang”
We are the ones, the wealthy of wearing it, My Dear.

The ‘New York’ you call me to come
Not being able to come together with you
Our ancient heritages; the artistic stone carving
Ought to belong to us.

‘IT’ age and abroad
I understand what you said to me
However, My Dear…
At the Land under the Arakan Roma
Because of my growing up
As long as Arakan Roma not being ruined

Thank You !!

What is the busiest schedule you have ever had in school? To be more clear, I am asking how many classes you have ever taken or taught on a weekly basis?

I love teaching English, but I have been teaching 43 classes a week! That is 23 classes in the mornings and 20 classes at night, each week.

I admit that I haven't been able to prepare for classes the way I would like to.  I also admit that I have been very poor at keeping in touch with my English Club friends since I arrived in Saudi Arabia last

The mind is a powerful thing. It establish the limits of our universe.

When we are childs, this universe is limitless. We can be whatever we want. We could be a rock star, a futbol player, or an astronaut. The time and the society begin to make it smaller and smaller, until it collapse.

But we can make it bigger if we try. The point is that we have the power. We should not accept what the society impose us.

Only the reality.

Do you remember yourselves being a child? The days were so long !!!! We could do a lot of different things discovering the world. And now....

Yesterday I had a very busy day (as usual). But I didn't do everything I'd planned. THE DAY WAS TOO SHORT! Time goes by too fast.

Oh what a life !

This challenge was held a long time ago by Nadira. And some friends already shared their experiences in their blog posts. Actually, I wanted to write about this topic, but I felt hesitate hesitant. Some other friends already wrote a pieces of information that I thought was helpful for us.

So, I decided to not not to write about this topic and stop repeating what others had written. However, I finally found several things that I would like to add to their blog posts. And also, I want to practice m

IDLERS

When the dawn starts to glow brightly

Disappear the dins of night animals gradually

Then the cocks crow loudly

The darkness disappears slowly

Universe shows its self proudly

The thin mists drift on cliff and valley

Caress everything intimately

The birds are also awake cheerfully

The dew drops on the leaves glow interestingly

The life is ready to rotate steadily

Hurly-burly of human activities start normally

It is not prevailed unfortunately

Cause idlers still sleep soundly

Absorbed in their dreams dee

The Ballad of Reading Gaol is a poem by Oscar Wilde,

written in exile either in Berneval or in Dieppe, France, after his release from Reading Gaol.

This is a part from it

:

I know not whether Laws be right,
  Or whether Laws be wrong;
All that we know who lie in gaol
  Is that the wall is strong;
And that each day is like a year,
  A year whose days are long.

But this I know, that every Law
  That men have made for Man,
Since first Man took His brother's life,
  And the sad world began,
But straws the whea
