Fired... And Still Teaching...

_
Despite the point of being fired, I'm still teaching yeah. How the hell is this possible? E-A-S-Y... Just volunteer yourself to anyone, and that's what I did. In my case though, I volunteered myself to help out an old student of mine. It's informal and I teach for free, but hey, some people find it still appealing. After all, you think anyone would like to let a big-headed, full of hubris (excessive/fatal pride), chin-up person teach him/her?

It's really very gratifying that someone would actually want an outcast (that's me!) to teach him. Anyways, it's a little bit hard since he doesn't really take things seriously for this is an informal teaching session, but still is fun. I want to thank Frankie for his time and for the wonderful hospitality that he had offered (though I could do without the forceful portions...)

Uh... guess I'll take this opportunity to advertise. If anyone would be interested in learning abacus, please tell me and uh... guess we could start at anytime you want? Oh well, have fun everyone...

Open Up Thy Blinded Eyes...

_
So just bored and thought that I'd make a new poem. This is my 32nd poem, Open Up Thy Blinded Eyes (click here), and it's basically about knowing who you are serving/helping/whatever. I don't really have much to say about this poem because it speaks for itself.

Anyways, the preview:

Begun as much only as a slave,
Obedient yet unaware of master's intentions.
To follow is the only rule given,
And to command is out of thy reach.

Please see the rest out and feel free to comment. Thanks...

The War of Just...

Alright, I'm on the roll here right now, and so today, I made my 31st poem, The War of Just (click here). Personally, I made the poem to reassure myself that I'd get over with the wrongs done to me and to my students.

But of course, I also made it to motivate those who were maltreated of their rights. I believe that one day, they shall be cleansed of the wrongs/assaults/insults/etc. done to them. It may not happen now, nor tomorrow; it may not even happen in front of a judge in court, but rest assured, justice will come. Just remember to never let your feet off the ground, or else, the power that will defend you, shall be the one who'll end you.

Anyways, enough of the orientation, the preview:

Time itself hast wrought his birth,
And cosmic Space hast nurtured his growth.
Existence of Justice hast always been there,
Yet some ignore the power of his wisdom.

So that's it, please check the rest out at the link above and please do tell me what you think about it. Thanks and may peace be with you...

Tomorrow is the Day... NOT!!!

Yeah, like what I have been placing here for almost the last few weeks, it's still about that summer job. Oh well, let me first explain why it is that it matters so much to me. The reason behind that is just easy - that is the place where the present me today originated from (please don't take it literally).

Tomorrow is the day of the orientation, and then after that long boring process of speeches and introductions, classes don't start yet (they start the next day, dudes). Anyways, as I was saying, after that orientation, the assistants go and meet the teachers and fix up everything for the next day. So why do I bother to even mention that? Uh... pretty much coz this is my blog and whatever so if you don't like it then don't read it, I guess.

Anyways, if you still continued to read up to this point, I thank you for being so patient. So as I said above, tomorrow is a day that I have been looking forward to for like... about the whole damn school year!!! And of course, now that there's a big NOT thingy on my title, I guess you'd know that I'd not be going there. Somewhat annoyed and bored by the fact that a person couldn't even trust a friend for just the fear of having the same mistake. Well, what can I say, well of course first: DO YOU THINK I AM AN IDIOT? I didn't just fell off a garbage truck for the past few months spent at school. I've been thinking for those months and whatever angle you look at it, it just ain't darn right. cause can you stand just well... standing there and watch your students get punished for what they didn't do? Whatever disrespect I have done to the higher ups, I did that out of my philosophy that a teacher's obligation is to his/her students first, not the superiors. And of course I won't commit it again, unless they really am forcing me to do it (which might be a possibility considering the way they treated the students there last year, though I can't make any justice for this year).

So there you have it. Please pardon me for writing so rudely (if you think it's not rude, then I thank you again) above, and I apologize to whoever that might have been offended or bored (I know you guys are), just PISSED OFF.

Qualms to Thee...

Finally, after what seems to be quite a long break (about a month at least), I have made a new poem. This one is my 30th poem, and the title is Qualms to Thee (click here). Basically, it's a poem that I made since I am having a difficulty trusting someone that I know of right now, but I don't need to mention names since I don't wanna insult whoever that person is.

The preview, again after a long long time:

Betrayal it is by a friend so dear,
A treachery it is that alarms such rage.
'Tis true that anger be contained,
'Tis another thing to rush into dismay.

That's it and I do hope that my poem writing skills aren't deteriorating, so please tell me what you think. Thanks...

Many Topics...

Oh well, since the talk with my friend about my work that was planned last night went as planned, it is now CLEAR that I ain't going back there this summer. Although I'm also getting a hunch that I won't be returning there for a long long time...

Anyways, I've been on the shogi (japanese chess) craze for quite a month now, and I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me where I could buy an actual shogi set (complete with the wooden board and the pieces). And please don't tell me to buy it online, I know that, just want to cut down expenses. Oh yeah, to anyone who is interested in learning shogi, I would recommend watching HIDETCHI-sensei's videos on youtube. They are really informative.

Next thing among the many topics - I'm making a database about world history based on my compilations of Sir Datz's (Mr. Datuon) given notes and lectures, as well as my researches on wikipedia. I would appreciate help from anyone, just send your info to my mail or leave it as a comment here. And if you do want a file of the said database, I would gladly send you one once it is finished, just remind me please. If you're wondering on the progress right now, I'm on the Punic Wars - part of the Roman expansion.

So anyways, if you could help out with some of my probs there above, I would really really really appreciate it. Thanks everyone and have a nice day/evening.
