Against All Odds

So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable.
– Christopher Reeve

This year I didn’t get the chance to celebrate the joy of receiving SPM result together with my students and fellow teachers. Still, I am delighted to know that my students have done so well in their exam. They have every right to be happy as the school has once again been ranked first among MRSM in East Malaysia.

To all dedicated teachers,
It is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the doing. It is not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving.

I have students texting me saying how thankful they are for having me as their teacher. ‘Thank you, teacher’ is often a good way of expressing gratitude. Whenever I think of those words now I am reminded of the role played by a teacher; not only to teach, but to give cheer, courage and counsel.

My dearest students, it is nice to know that you have put in your best effort to achieve a good grade for my subject, to make me smile and feel proud, to prove that you are worthy of my love, compassion and endless patience. I wish you the best in life and hope you continue to develop the many talents Allah has given you ~♥

Forever Love

♥ [December 9, 2012] ♥

I have a husband who loves me for who I am...

who doesn’t mind to take the turn

to cook meal and do laundry and irons,

who can put up with my passion for animals,

who can handle me at my worst.

My hubby may not hug me in public or post romantic words on facebook.

He said that those moments are ours, just between the two of us.

For all of these things, I am deeply grateful.

♥ Happy Anniversary ♥

Dear Allah, thank you for your continued blessings that have enabled us to reach another anniversary. My heart is filled with joy that I am worthy of the love and respect I receive from my husband. I am blessed beyond measure.

A Happy Kitty Named Choco

Meet Choco, my new long haired tortie kitten. She’s five-month-old when we brought her home on October 14.

I took some photos of Choco when she posed prettily in her cage for the first time.

*FYI, Choco didn’t like the blue bed. I had to take it out of her cage – otherwise she decided to rest on the litterbox instead!

Whenever Choco happened to see moving things, (be it a pile of papers that gets blown away by the ceiling fan, all kind of strings or plastic covers) she would never rest easy. Choco’s all time favourite is plastic bottle caps / lids. She would play with it; move it with her hand, chase after it, attempt (more like pretend) to bite it off, and struggle with it in a funny way.

When extremely excited, Choco could spent all evening just playing. But of course, she would have to take frequent short breaks to catch her breath ^_^

Choco finds it's fun scattering my students' exam papers and after that lying on them.

I just let her having fun in messing everything as it was such a cute sight.
