teaching sites

catchyoutube.com – to convert youtube videos so we can use them in the classroom (since youtube is a forbidden site in my school and since we don’t have unitedstreaming.com anymore thanks to budget cuts)

quia.com for creating my teaching website – i have not started on this yet but i intend to do so soon enough – annual fee

streaming.discoveryeducation.com for all my videos in the classroom – not free though

i’ll add up the others as i go along so i won’t lose track of them.

It came as a shock. Wala akong nasabi kundi “Oh My God!” (ang arte noh? e sa yun ang nasabi ko e) nang makita ko ang result ng pregnancy test na ginawa ko nung August 31. I was feeling so much pain in my abdomen that I was worried already. I know we were trying to get pregnant but I was thinking a week before that that the pain and discomfort I was having was because I’m gonna have my period once again. Sabi ko nga dun sa isang VIF teacher, “Paso! Wala na naman! Padating na e. ” since I was feeling the cramps already.

Hindi ko akalain, subalit , ngunit, datapwat… yun na pala yun.

A few days before that, we have to move from one house to the other. Our due date was August 31. We have to move the sofa and the dining set two days before. Sobrang malalaki at mabibigat ang mga binuhat namin, may tama pa balikat ko dahil nabagsakan nung isang paa nung mesa, solid na kahoy pa man din. Abah! Buhat lang ako ng buhat kahit nananakit na. Malay ko ba naman na buntis ako no! Well, mukhang makapit naman ang anak ko, andito pa rin sya at namumuo sa loob ko. I can’t wait for the day my baby will be out. And sakit naman po kasi ngayon pa lang.

I had my first visit to the doctor yesterday. Sa wakas! I was reassured that my baby is growing in the right place and growing well. Sa sakit na mga nararamdaman ko kasi feeling ko nasa labas ng bahay ang baby ko e. Well, hindi ko pa naman naranasan na magkaron ng baby sa labas ng bahay bata, based on what I heard and what I have read, everytime I am in pain I can’t help myself but worry. Thank goodness I was reassured yesterday, salamat sa mga midwife at doctor na tumingin sakin.

Sa tingin ko lang kahit na mahal manganak dito at kahit na sabihin na mahal magkaanak dito, mas di hamak na maganda pa rin manganak dito. Kung sa pinas kasi ngayon pa lang naiisip ko na pinagmumukha nakong tanga ng mga doctors e. Sa pinas kasi parang mga diyos na kung umasta e nakaupo sa langit hehehe, para bang sinasabi lagi na “don’t ask, you wouldn’t understand anyway.” The doctors and midwives in here are really nice and helpful. They were so friendly to me yesterday that I can’t help but relax and enjoy the process myself. Kahit kitang-kita ang kabuuan mo at nakatiwangwang ka sa harap nila, sobrang nakakatuwa sila. When I told them it was my first time to do the procedure they explained to me first what they are going to do before even doing it. The midwife was so helpful all throughout, guiding me through the process and making sure I am relaxed just to get the right results. I enjoyed it so well when they did the ultrasound. Kahit feeling ko trespassing na ang mga machines, kahit lima na silang andun nanonood ok lang kasi narinig ko ang heartbeat ng anak ko. Yahoo! Hehehe buhay sya! Nakita ko! Andun sa loob ko! The doctor even took a picture of it! Kahit diko maintindihan ang picture, basta sabi ng doctor yung anak ko daw yun e, ok na hahaha!

All I’m praying right now is for my child to be well and healthy until the day we get to see each other face to face…

love you anak!

may lamok sa kwarto ko

ces — Sun, 26 Aug 2007 03:47:14 +0000

hmmm… san kaya yun nanggaling?

pati lamok naisulat ko tuloy sa kagustuhan kong masimulan ang pagsusulat. well, sabi sakin pwede isulat kahit ano, in whatever language, no matter what tone i use over here. ako lang naman magbabasa, pwede rin ang papa ko hehehe…

may pasok na naman sa monday, instead of writing my lesson plan i’m here in front of the computer writing anything that comes to mind since i am not in the mood to be writing any lesson plan at all. well, when did i ever? haaayyy buhay!

but at least i am not depressed anymore. nakita ko ang aking pangalawang asawa, si jason bourne, pati na rin ang ex ko, si jackie chan. o diba? pasukin daw ang sinehan at manood ng dalawang sine sa iisang ticket lang. kahusay ah! pagdating ng asawa ko tatlo ang panonoorin namin hahaha!!!

o diba? walang sense talaga tong pinagsusulat ko na to. ano kaya ang kinalaman ng lamok sa kabuuan nitong maisusulat ko? pagkatapos kaya ng pagusulat ko e maibalik ko pa sa lamok to? hmmm… nevermind, patay na ang lamok!

medyo inaantok nako pero parang hindi pa… m thinking about monday. i have to go back to school. i have to meet the kids i will be teaching this year. try to gauge each other on who will be in control of the classroom, me or them. one can never be sure of these kids. yes, they are kids, some of them trapped in a man’s or woman’s body. kalalaki na parang mga dalaga at binata na, yet deep within, still kids trying to decide if they should act their age or they should act their looks.

i am hoping for the best this year. i intend to do some of the things i have not done last year since i was not so sure yet on how to do things over here. i am so used to xs. so organized, people knowing what they should do and when to do it and how to do it. people who know exactly what is expected of them. although there was too much work there, the support was always there. e dito, pag dika nagtanong, mag-isa ka. mabulok ka dyan, wala kang alam, wala din akong pakialam.

concern ko nga lang ngayon e ang aking mga coteachers. tatlo kaming teacher ng science 7th grade. kung may gagawin ako na kung ano pa man para sa lesson dapat meron din sila. pag may binago ako or may ginawa or gagawin pa lang, sasabihin “why are you doing this? you are making us look bad? why punish yourself with all of these? you are making it so hard on yourself girl, and on us too!” haaayyy… kesa naman gawin ko na naman yung mga ginagawa nila last year.

dito sa america, dito ko lang natutunan na ang unang-unang isipin dapat at priority ng isang teacher e DISCIPLINE. bahala na lesson sa sarili nya. make them work, make sure they are engaged, that they have something to do, to make sure that they would not have a lull moment to think of something crazy. pagpasok pa lang kailangan meron ng mga DO NOW activity.

speaking of the DO NOW, i should be doing something now, that is the lesson plan, and the worksheets. not to mention the powerpoint presentations, na kokopyahin na naman. kaya nga daw ako andito e, i am here to be an ambassador of my country, to learn things from here and go back to my country and transfer the technology. NAMAN! mas high-tech pa xs kesa dito. ako pa nagturo ng powerpoint sa kanila. ako nagturo ng excel. ang copy/paste dito literal na copy-gupit-dikit-copy ulit. well, at least may natutunan na sila sakin. or may natutunan nga ba? e hinihingi lang naman mga gawa ko. sabay tanong ng “where did you get all those images?”. duh! AW INDA!

napoypoy na ako, sa aga na ang lesson plan.

Lord forgive me for procastinating. i’ll do it tomorrow… promise. i know you will help me on monday. AMEN!

I’m back!!!
