The dream and the dreamers

To my beloved teachers, teachers-to-be, teachers in heart, and to the Greatest Teacher ever, Happy TEACHERS' Day!
Today, I woke up with this weird proud feelin'.. not because today is my day, but because I know, someday, I will be able to claim this day as mine..
^The future educators^ BSED (English) Batch 2011 Bell - Aziel - MJ - Mam Vicx - Dianne - ME Mike - Edu
(Sarah, where were you durin' this moment?)
This is actually an ambush photo.. (waaa.. ambush photo? haha) Ma'am Celina was on her way home when she saw us having a great time taking photos oh ourselves.. We first asked her to take a photo of our group, then gratefully invited her to join us for a "nightlight photo shoot" which she gamely approved. "Kapag mataba ako, burahin ha?" Oh no, i didn't say that. That's actually Ma'am Ana's statement.. Good thing, we all look great in this photo.. hmm.. this was taken shortly after our Structure class.. This is where we usually spend our vacant moments.. Yeah, introducing--- Aling Ada's store.. tindahan ni Aling Ada, mura na..... blahblahblah.. forgot the lyrics..hehe 'mind you, we English majors eat a lot..
In the future, we are all goin' to be teachers.. Language teachers specifically.. sometimes, it gives me goosebumps thinkin' about this.. to be a teacher is one vigorous task.. I'm not even sure if I can make it.. To shape the future.. to touch lives.. to teach.. to inspire.. to heal a broken spirit.. to be an example.. to always remain a student.. to be a parent and a friend all at once.. to love.. and to show care.. and... to be a teacher in the deepest sense of being one.. When you love people and have the desire to make a profound, positive impact upon the world, then will you have accomplished the meaning to live. -Sasha Azevedo
