My Second Surprise in a week. Whoa!

mcD glass from the student
Ever since I was a child, I had zero confidence in myself. Zero, it is a fact. No matter what I did, there seemed that , there were a soft yet powerful inner voice told me that , "I can never do things right."

In my 22 years' life, I always admire and look up to people, instead of telling myself, I can show the achievement to myself too. I was silly? Yes I was.

In this one year, things happened and I view life from 4 different angle of camera. Awesome? Yes, it is because I realize that when we feel confident, we can perform our task with awesome heart in reality world.

Today, my students gave me the mcD glass by surpirse. Of course, I was delighted because I never thought that I am in their heart, as a teacher. Last week, I was given 2 awesome pens by a kindergarten student.

It is a blessing because I wished that I got a chance to teach the small children or giving tuition lessons to primary school students. Never did I imagine that I can kill two birds with a stone this time.

I am thankful. Life is great, depends on how you view and react to the situation.

With us in Tampin

Granduncle with the grandkids
It was sort of a sudden plan to pay a visit to our dearest granduncle. Usually, we will think of visiting him during the weekend. So, really, Thursday is a 'sudden plan' with our cousin rushing to our house right after his presentation in university and my sister taking a-day-leave....

And we finally started our journey to visit the Granduncle in Tampin.

He is a close granduncle because we always meet him since we were young. I remembered he used to visit us in Johor Bahru, along with his both sisters (one of them is my late grandmother). We went to shopping mall, waiting for someone to drive us back. It happened more than 10 years ago...

When we visited him last Thursday, his mind was still very alert although he is 87 years old now. We, the younger generations lose to him seriously. The way he talked, the way he expressed his opinion, the way he told us the old stories before we were born really impressed us. He is a natural speaker, natural person with absolutely natural vocal variety.

He was the one who used to call me Rainbow because my Chinese name is Rainbow. There are few times he kept saying my name sounded like a guy,sometimes. It had been more than a year since he met some of us. Thus, he could not recognize us. He thought I am my cousin's friend. We changed, our face feature changed, according to him. 

He is still our awesome granduncle who still able to make some jokes during our trip to Tampin.

We took the chance to take pictures on top of the hill.

The short-trip to Tampin is wonderful.
Family is forever. We do not ask for it, we are blessed to be part of them.
