PEOPLE OF MY YEAR

i know this blog title isn't original 'coz i took it from bainca gonzalez's blog last year. i was inspired to do like that of hers.

this 2009, i was observing people around me who had greatly inspired and had touched not just my life but also a lot of other people's lives.

oops! don't tell her that i posted her picture again. actually, she's our accounting teacher. the first time i met her, i got a cold feet. she's my first college teacher who scared me. and she even had me thought of transferring into another schedule. i was scared of her! she seems to be the worst teacher i imagined before entering college. i thought of her as a TERROR TEACHER. like those teachers who degrade their students and send them out, not teaching her students well and gives a lot of quizzes.shucks!

but, everything changed as we come to know her. she's not actually a TERROR one. she even make us laugh every meeting that we have. she has a straight-to-the-point way of teaching. and that's what we like about her. yeah, every meeting she drowns us with seat works, however, whenever we haven't finished it before the bell rings, she let us bring it home and consider it assignments.

she also shared her life stories. as a respected teacher, she did not hesitate to tell us that she had a " F " when she was in high school. we all laugh to death as she tells that story. she said, since her Chinese father believes that all reds are lucky, she was not scolded for it although it's a red " F "... haha

because of ma'am Gadia, i become more interested to the course which i thought is not right for me. before, i curse that BS-Accountancy course. but because of the way she taught us, i now LOVE ACCOUNTING! and i am now a GADIAPHILLIC!



* EFREN PEÑAFLORIDA (CNN HERO OF THE YEAR)

who wouldn't be inspired of this man who brought pride to our country not because of his skills and talent but because of his very kind heart. when i saw the news about him, i was really amaze of what he's doing. you can't see a person like him anywhere. he's one of kind. he gives time to stroll in the streets of Cavite and persuade street children to join him and participate in his offered lectures. and you know what? he's even the one providing those children their meriendas! he didn't mind walking under the heat of the sun pushing that kariton with books in it.

it's a great honor that he is recognized all over the world. he is awarded as the hero of the year. (and hey! i vote for him too!)... i am so proud of him. because of him, Filipinos are not just recognized because of our talents but now, also because of our pure heart for the least favored.

kuya Ef made me even think of joining his group. i also want to be like him who shows a great concern for our children. if he can do it, why can't we, right? SALUDO AKO SA'YO KUYA EF!



* BATOS 




hehe... this all-girl group. when my college life started, i never thought that i could meet friends and be close to them so much. and i never thought that i would be friends with all girls since from the start, i am really one-of-the-boys.

well, let me introduce you to my a "sorority-like-but-not-really-like-that" group. we are the BATOS! we are classmates during the first semester. hmmmn... i love this group because, we had the same interest. we are not afraid of laughing loudly and etcetera. i was inspired to go to school because of them... hehe char!

(..to be continued...)
