Better @ 30: An After-Party Post!

another year

another life

another miracle

proud to reach the big 3 oh!

A week after my birthday, here I am mulling things over. My conscious mind and physical body are a bit settled and it's a great time for some "me" moment and self reflection. Just how great God is for giving me an extension to live with this mortal body in a mortal world. Just how blessed I am for Him to give me all the chances to be better in every aspect of this borrowed life!

From the frail little girl I was, I had developed into this very healthy and confident woman I am today! I could prove that since the last time I got sick was when I was in third year high school due to typhoid fever. God forbid, that is really an achievement for me not to get sick in 15 whole years!

Proof #2, I can now express myself in whatever way I please! I wear what I want, say what I want, and do what I want! Although there are still some reservations, I can still say that I am confident compared with the little miss insecure me before!

Now how do I say that I got better? The evidences are.....

.....my loving students who treat me not just a teacher to be respected but a friend to be treasured.
