i was really excited to skate on my first two days. by day 3, i suddenly got lazy. i was feeling a bit down for some reason. i dealt with it in prayer that morning. but i had to stay alert and guard my thoughts and emotions throughout the day. when i got to the rink, i didn't feel like teaching... harhar... but of course, there was no room for mood swings there. i just dealt with it. get the right attitude to change my mood. *praying!then came my first student. God, "bahala ka na." basta as always, i'll do my best. never mind how i feel. (it usually gets better once i start teaching 'coz i get reminded how much i enjoy it...) "What's his name?" i asked my student's mom. "Caleb." whoa! "Cool name," i thought to myself. Let's go Caleb!
After teaching him, i left him to practice on his own. He did a great job! On his way out of the rink, like more than an hour after i taught him, he didn't forget to wave at me. So that was my first student this tuesday. A six-year-old boy named Caleb, reminding me that God has placed me there for a purpose. Like Caleb, each day is an opportunity to seize my destiny.
By the way, my friend april visited me early on in my shift... (Thanks sis!!!) That was before I got my first student. At di siya nagskate pero naka-apak siya ng yelo! Thanks to manong guard for letting her in. =P
my playground...
