A DATE AFTER A STRESSFUL DAY

Last wednesday, we were expecting visitors, our big boss from the Lapu-Lapu Division office. They came over for an interview especially to the papers presented by our school head and coordinators. They also roam around the campus and will observe classes, and will give us teaching assistance. This is a bit stressful yet so good so everyone should prepare their lessons regularly and will not just feel relax.

After a very exhausting day at school, around 4pm I fetched my daughter together with his cousin and we dine out so I can breathe. Their visit brought both pressure and excitement. We went to HMart after that day and I ate all my cravings there. The soft light, good food, and comforting place really suits my feelings that time. Together with my daughter and her cousin, we had bonded and talked about their school and hows going on. After that, I called my husband and we talked over phone to relieve the tension I felt that time.

We ordered corndog for the kids, kimbap and teokbokki for me, then we added 3 drinks for the three of us and 2 skittles for the kids.

I paid 600php around 200 steem since 1 steem only cost 3php this time.

While eating my cravings and bonding with the kids while embracing the good food and great ambiance, I reflected that while teaching demands dedication and excellence, I should not forget to take a pause, breathe and reward myself for a good job. The supervisors visit may have tested my skills and preparedness but the bond I had with the kids plus the good food refreshed my spirit. By the end of the night, I felt good, grateful and ready to face the next day with renewed confidence and strength.

Thank you for listening!
