Start of second semester :)

Wednesday


My day has really been tiring yet productive. I have met our new profs in some of our subjects. Basically, it has been already two weeks ago since the second semester had started, but as i can see few lessons are being discussed, thinking that prelim is coming next week. This day, i'm thinking of writing a part of my day here. First, is with our subject "Econ1". When i first heard the subject economics, the first thing that comes in mind is numbers. Guess i'm wrong haha, you know what? It's a subject where you have to speak in english hahaha, in short, it is a subj for a students' memorization.
This subject has two sides: scary and exciting. Scary for every chapter has really loooongggg topics that may explode my mind in memorizing it. And it is really exciting 'coz we'll be able to speak in english every one and a half hour of our day hahaha. Jokingly, my instructor told our class that we should not speak the so-called "english carabao" for we are not carabaos coz we're humans. I guess we really should push ourselves to talk the way she wanted to whether we like it or not hahaha. Now, i been wondering of what will be the benefits of speaking in english for us , like duh?we're future educators, i think the reason why she's doing this it for us to be ready to be a good communicator and instructor for it is our profession to share knowledge to children and help them to learn something that no one can get. Also the main objective of it is, for us to speak in english confidently in the nearer future of our career.
Public speaking is really important in our profession. I can still remember my subject in speech when i was still a highschool student. Ms. Len, our teacher, used to talked her students in english. You know what? She's really fluent. I love how she speaks. She has a good rapport. I admire her, on how she teach her students using english language without leaving a question on our heads in the end of our session. I'm a bit nostalgic about the word "glossophobia" or the fear of public speaking. At some point in my life, i'm really into this situation. I'm afraid of facing other people esp if the crowd is not familiar.
I think this college, i have exerted my full effort to talk in a public way. Maybe bec. it is part of my position in the class as a president. Basically, a president shouldn't be lame. And it is really the old me. As a president, i have learned a lot. To be selfless, in a way that i prefer to be tired for the class rather than to be relax and not be alarmed of what is happening. I'm doing my best to give my full shot on everything that the teacher will ask me to do, as long that is for the benefit of the class. To be patient in all things. Especially in handling my co-mates, i have found out their ways on how they react to something or what. Their agreements and disagreements. From the start, i know that all of them has their own personalities. And i should be aware of that. And lastly, i have learned to communicate with them. No matter how close or how far am i with them. I have learned their do's and don'ts. Their ways to express themselves. I know, in the near future that we all be close and be bonded tight not just classmates but as a family :) this section is the best, students with diversities but work as a team! Love you guys! :)


Anyways.. Apparently, i been typing this blog for 30 minutes hahaha, earlier i've asked my boyfriend if we could talk in english with at least 30 minutes a day (as in straight english xD) and he agreed. Guess it will be nice if we might find ourselves talking in english everyday hahaha. The main reason why i suddenly post something again on my blog is for my english grammar. You know, PRACTICING! HAHAHA!?!


Today has been really great.
I guess so.


*Ps: I'm preparing myself for thesis. :'(
