just thoughts

Today's the last day I call myself a teacher at REAL School Johor Bahru. It didn't feel real until today because I've spent my last 2 months teaching online and being physically apart from my students and colleagues. After signing that letter and handing over all my responsibilities, that's when it hit me that I won't be walking through this building anymore. I took this last photo of the building I have been going to every weekday, and sometimes weekend, morning for the past few years and I will miss the memories. It hasn't been a journey filled with rainbows and flowers but I'd like to think of those challenging times as the ugly, humongous rock I'm climbing over, to view those rainbows and flowers 😉🌈🌺 I will miss my kids and I will miss my colleagues here at REAL. Thank you for the cute virtual send-off and instead of goodbye, I'd rather say, till we meet again 🤗 (at R.E.A.L Schools) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAu3oCDgK0-GYd0MLx659XhtbGsoA1AhKX8AQA0/?igshid=16set58qmnpg8

"...The geese flew on, I have never seen them again. Maybe I will, someday, somewhere. Maybe I won't. It doesn't matter. What matters is that, when I saw them, I saw them as through the veil, secretly, joyfully, clearly." -Snow Geese, Mary Oliver. A throwback to the highlights and the family I had in university. Felt nostalgic after catching up with friends and scrolled through my archive of photos to pick these. Remembering the good and challenging times, and knowing that even if some questions will always remain unanswered, I will strive to follow God's teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, perseverance in my every step. 🌼 https://www.instagram.com/p/B8T--LhghqZkrdc_vjXTFGwrH2PErc_KKf1OPE0/?igshid=74fe00fc9y41

Wake: the silver dusk returning Up the beach of darkness brims, And the ship of sunrise burning Strands upon the eastern rims. - A. E. Housman (at Pantai Teluk Chempedak) https://www.instagram.com/p/Byabcryn_OKM-GrFuw5b4HmRq6wXNthchvD5ag0/?igshid=16oyi6irc85mo
