- "God, why do I..?" -

I kept on asking God why do I have small monolid eyes,
until I saw a blind little girl..
Then I thanked God for my small eyes..

I kept on asking God why do I have a flat nose,
until I saw a man with a big tumor in his nose..
Then I thanked God for my flat nose..

I kept on asking God why do I mostly have to go to campus by public transportation,
until I saw a woman who had to walk for miles carrying her children with bare feet..
Then I thanked God for those public transportation..

I kept on asking God why do I have a short body,
until I saw a child with no arms and legs..
Then I thanked God for my short body..

I kept on asking God why can't I travel all around the world just like what my friends did,
until I saw a poor old man who had never traveled further than his own town in his life..
Then I thanked God for my condition..

I kept on asking God why do I have to work quite hard even before I graduate from university just to fulfill my own daily needs,
until I saw hundreds of jobless people applying for jobs everyday
and being rejected..
Then I thanked God for my job..

Through the people around me, God has taught me how to be grateful for all the way I am.. :')

Now I've learnt that jealousy won't change any of my own condition,
instead it will only make everything worse coz it will simply take the peace and happiness in my heart away..

Now I've learnt that there's no perfect life in this world,
everybody has their own problems, regrets and failures behind all their laughter..

Now I've learnt that by keeping grateful and counting my own blessings,
it will make my life even brighter and more delightful :)

because..
Jealousy is counting someone's else blessings
instead of your own.

- "my 5th teaching.." -

a super cute rabbit :)

See a cute picture of a rabbit above? ^^
I showed this picture to one of my class at St. Theresia high school in my 5th teaching practice a couple days ago.. I used this picture to brainstorm what ideas come to the students' mind when they hear or see a picture of rabbit..

At the very first some students shouted, "SATAY, miss!!" and the rest of the class laughed, including me haha.. I just answered, "Hey don't make it a portion of satay! It's too cute to be cooked.. hahaha.."

Then some other students said, "BUGS BUNNY".. That answer was logical so I wrote it on the whiteboard. Another student answered, "CARROT, miss!" That was also a good answer.

Until one of the students shouted loudly, "PLAYBOY, miss!! Playboy bunny!!", and soon his friend added, "HUGH HEFNER, miss!!" The whole class burst into laugh hahaha :))

So.. Can you imagine how naughty my students were? wkwk :P
But I love teaching them.. They have given me an unforgettable teaching experience :)
I love XI IPS 3!! :*

- "new EMAIL address." -

Guys,
I'm changing my email address from monyetminumbir@yahoo.com into astrid.marcella@yahoo.com since now and then..
Actually I have been using my stupid-yet-unique address of email "monyetminumbir" for the past 7 years and it's been one of my 1st emails that I have haha.. I DO love that email address though some people don't and think that I'm a bit crazy :P
Well.. At least it's a memorable address of an email, right? ^^

I made my first NORMAL email address, "astrid.marcella", at the first time I entered the university. At that time one of my lecturers asked my email to send some assignments, I was ashamed to tell her that my email was "monyetminumbir", so I created a new normal email address then haha :P
I planned to use my old email to operate some of the social networks such as FB, twitter, blog, skype, etc. and use my new email for sending and receiving any kinds of assignments or emails related to the university or any other formal institutional works. But unfortunately, I came back again using my old one coz actually I'm a kinda person that doesn't like using 2 emails at the same time. At the end, I will only activate one of them which I use the most.. Haha..

Well.. I think it's time for me to use a better and more "professional" email address than the "monyetminumbir" one.. I'm doing my Scientific Writing this semester and my advisor prefers to send everything about my SW through my second "normal" email.. So I have no other choice, as what I've told before, I would rather use one active email only. So I think it's better for me to start moving to my second email, changing my social networks emails into "astrid.marcella@yahoo.com" and leaving my old unique one :')

Hihi I'm a bit sad knowing that I'm not gonna use my unique email address anymore coz that email has given me a lot of memories for the past 7 years.. I've sent and received so many assignments, notes, reflections, stories, reminders, letters from my relatives and friends, and even spams and junks ^^
And it's been like an "identity" for me every time anybody asks me about what my email address is :)

But yeah I know I can't use that email forever though. Sooner or later I have to change my email with a more proper address regarding to my professionalism and increasing age..

So guys, from now on, please kindly change my email address into
astrid.marcella@yahoo.com :)

I'll activate it and this email is ready to do its job for me! :D

Good bye my memorable "monyetminumbir@yahoo.com".. Thanks for helping me in the past 7 years :)
Wanna go back to my childhood years..
When there was just me,
a bottle of milk
and my favorite doll in my arms for the whole days.
No homework.
No exams.
No responsibilities!
HAHA :P
