Tifa’s First Christmas

It’s Tifa’s first christmas. But not a good day for our little angel, because she’s sick. On christmas eve, she just opened her gifts. And the next day, we just visit a few relatives for a while and went back home.

Tough Challenge

Funny but it’s true. I’ve been teaching Koreans for a week now, and I’ve observed that they can’t count in english. Whenever I ask my students to count in english, others would tell it to me honestly that they don’t know how. Others keep on making excuses like for example they are thirsty and they want to get a water to drink. Some will change the topic and will tell other stories instead of counting.

First Christmas Without My Santa

This will be my first christmas without my santa. You might ask who’s my santa is. She is no other than my Grandmother, Lola Terry. Why I call her santa? because when I was a kid, I learned early that she’s the one putting gifts in my socks. I caught her, but she doesn’t know. I never told her so that she won’t stop putting gifts in my socks. heheheh!

I miss her. I miss my santa. She passed away last July at the age of 79. When she died, I feel like a part of me died also. I am a lola’s girl. She’s the one who took care of me since I was a baby until I had my own daughter. I grew up with her. She gave everything thing that I wanted. I learned many things from her. 

Last night I dreamt of her, and in my dream, she was calling me. She’s having a hard time breathing, I tried to do everything to ease her but she told me to let her go.  It’s like real. I even embraced her and I was crying. When I woke up my eyes are wet. I really am crying. I remember before she had a heart attack, I was nebulizing her in her room.

As I was trying to recall my dream last night, I remembered her telling me to let her go. Yes, until now I am still in the process of recovering from her lost. And I think it’s time to let her go. But all her teachings and memories will always be in my heart. I had a happy childhood because of her.  And I am very thankful that God gave me someone like her.Wherever she is now, I know she’s guiding us.

 

“Merry Christmas Santa. I miss you. I love you. Thanks for everything.”

“You’re In!”

Today I received a text message  saying that I have to be at the Juni’s Home School for Koreans at 1:30 PM.  I’m no longer excpecting a call from them since I applied last wednesday and they adviced me that they’re going to call that very same night if I made it. But, I haven’t got a feedback from them until this afternoon. So I went there. I thought they’re going to give me back my resume. =) And when I talked to Teacher Rod, he told me that I’m in. YEHEY!!! I really need a job to keep me sane. Don’t get me wrong,  I enjoy being a Stay-at-Home-Mom but I also want to be productive and earn.

I am very excited on my new job. At least I can practice my teaching skills before our daughter gets to school. =)

Jingle Bells! Jingle Bells! Blogging All The Way!

Finally, something I can call my own. Thanks to my husband who forced me to have my own site. heheheh! Peace! Maybe he wants me stop lurking on somebody else’s site and be seen.

As what Kotsengkuba told in my About Her, I am a Stay-at-Home-Mom, so I have all the time to blog!

Till then… :p
