A phrase someone on here said.
WTF what's up with this cheap ass rice? Why does it always go messed up??
About... 40 minutes.

How sweet of my ex-students to still remember me. Even after graduating from school since 2012 and even when I am no longer a teacher. Up to this year, they still wish me a Happy Teachers' Day every year on that particular day. There's this boy, what a special one (I've even spoken to his parents quite a bit, and told them what a wonderful child they have).. he just told me I'm the best teacher he's ever had. I guess I was there for them a lot, being their form teacher for 2 whole years, and bringing them together. I still remember those bullshit pep talks (I never thought they get through these kids at that age but even if the messages didn't stick, I suppose my presence around them mattered) and the one-to-one talks with each one of them, organising activities for them externally just so they could bond outside the walls of that goddamn school. My teachings and strategies worked with this bunch and I'm grateful for that.
It's so nice and heartwarming to still see the same bunch of kids keeping in touch with one another when initially, they would not have even given two shits to the various cliques formed in the class. Now they plan meet-ups together and still ask me out to meet them.
These are the things that make what I did, no matter how challenging, all worthwhile. Makes me kinda miss teaching... just a teeny bit.
