Journal Week 10

Unload

    It's the feast of Immaculate Conception and we don't have class this week. Since I am done with my demo class at this time I simply unload my all my anxieties, exhaustion and stress away.

***

    The past two weeks accumulated so much work load that I felt I really need a break. Went mountain trekking with my friends and just simply be with nature.

    It's one of those organized trek where there is a a guide from the locals and we went from trekking the fields, climbed two mountains, went spelunking and river crossing. One of my best moments I had, when I sort of separate myself from the group and just lay down by the river. Listen to the water flow and just simply zoom out. It's a complete surrender and soaked into divine bliss.

    Nature definitely is the ultimate re-charger and I felt this is a good year ender and a great way to gear myself for the upcoming year.

Journal Entry Week 8

"Every single line means something."      -Jean-Michel Basquiat      Had my first Art Class practicum today about lines and visual perception!!!      I never felt so ecstatic and relieved after sleepless nights of preparing my lesson plans, visual presentation, pre recorded discussion and demo teaching.      I also had the chance to peer observe Mita's class for her Math subject and was very impressed how she make a very challenging subject to be fun and entertaining. In fact, my next visual presentation is somehow inspired by her and even my bitmoji above!      And it is true that you learn  more when you teach, since you really have to learn what you are about to teach and also you will learn from your students. One time, I had a hard time figuring out a certain setting about google class meet, and one of my students were able to teach me. It was a very humbling experience and it just shows that learning doesn't really stops.
