They are no you

Life gets busy again. i love the busy-ness. one thing for it to keep me focus, and another to while away my time. another one is so that i won't think of home so much. The only thing that keeps me grounded at this point is that, i would be able to apply for transfer this year. And hopefully it would be a success. Cheer for that.^_^

This week.
Busy doing all sorts of assessment for my students, everything that hadn't been done yet. Busy to get acquainted with SPSS and data in PMIS. Busy to get my life adjusted accordingly, to my unpredictably quite busy schedule. Busy to get so many thing in order, paying bills and debts-which has been proudly taken care. I am proud that everything is well taken care of. Im proud that despite many adjustment, i cope well and seem to be getting better everytime.That's an achievement.however small.Proud is the name of the game.^_^

This week.
i made one of my students cried. i didn't mean for it to end up in tears. But i guess, i have to take action or be questioned later in the hereafter for taking my responsibility lightly. This girl has an attitude problem. I have been with her since her first semester. i don't want to fail her without giving her the chance to justify her action. It was a kiss and tell, but i would say that this incident reminded me of my purpose of being where i am: internalizing good values and be off help wherever needed. For someone who claimed herself to be professional with a strategic way of thinking, mature,positive,and reliable, i did the best i can with her. I pray that Allah guides her in her future endeavours.

This week.
i tried my best with all of my classes. Giving what it takes all the way. i read an FB status from my student something about all lecturers are emotional. so i decided to have more tolerant for childish behaviour. Although, it was tough, but the pain was worth it.Instead of feeling angry for inability, i tried another way: giving exercises after exercises. At least that way, it would help them be better in class. The challenge is to challenge myself and my mind to think differently. and i can't never refuse challenge.

This week.
Dealing with students in the student's affair unit is no piece of cake. It challenges your diplomacy and somewhat triggers irritation. it is very easy to get stuck in irritation mode. but then somewhere, somewhat i learned that, "hey.cool it off. Just because everyone was reacting in similar way, doesn't mean you have to follow suit."
Besides, everyone is NOT you. So i decided to take everything that comes my way with a semblance of sense of humour. Hah, my day is much better. ^_^

Everyday is a challenge for me to be better. Everything is a challenge for me to rise through it and make it better.

Everytime, i remind myself that i am better off and would be better still.In every aspect.

Insya Allah.
