i'm in love...with myself

I am so fond of myself now, for the fact that i am able to be so lenient to myself.

I gave a short test to my students and unfortunately, majority failed. To my surprise, i consider those getting 40% not too bad. I was bit worried because i was afraid i'm the reason why the students don't do well. Maybe something's wronged with my teaching. So, i went up to my colleague in the same department, showed her my notes and the test paper and asked for her opinion. I can't believe at that time, i could be that open-minded that i was willing to accept any criticism. I mean, i thought i would feel insecure to show other people the notes i am making, i thought i couldn't handle negative remarks. Glad that i was wronged. I must say, there are helpful people everywhere but to find them, i must not be embarassed to ask, must be brave enough to admit my weaknesses.
Ok, my colleagues think i am doing ok. So i guess what i need to do now is try to be in my students' shoes, which is the hardest part for me. Not to say i'm arrogant, i am never the weak student in class so it's difficult for me to understand why is it so hard to learn.
Nevermind, i would find the way out one day. I am still new in teaching.

I am also amazed that i can accept the fact that my arms are flabby, my tummy are bulging out. I feel plump but ok with it. As long as i'm consistent with my yoga practice and eat wisely, one day i'll have nice figure.. hm.. well i'm more concerned about reaching a heathy weight now.

For these two things, i am happy with myself. Really made my day. That's why i want to jot it down here :)

Gambate Jocy, you can do it!
