Love letter--literally love!

Continuing my old post about my exchange project in China (June 2012)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Before I left Ruian High School, I asked my students in class 9 to write a letter for me.
I asked them to write anything about me, literally everything. Their opinion about me, their advice, anything. And here are some letters that i've got, how can I not love them? :""") 


My all time favorite!!! Zara is very good at drawing! I believe someday she will be a famous designer!

Erica, the active girl in class! her drawing is so lovely i can't help it :"")


Another gold drawing from Erica. She drawed me, souvenir that I gave to her, our flags and she puts a lovely words <3 nbsp="">

Jack is very creative! :'D that was meee with my forever laptop hahaha

"The days we spent together at first when I see you, I find you’re very funny, you can use your funny body language, give us the happy. Now, you're going to leave, I will miss you forever. I can’t forget your smile, your game, your song and many many thing. So Chacu we all like you and will miss you forever!" Emily


"You are the most original teacher. I will remember you forever :”( Don’t leave us. You are a good teacher, of course you are our best friend. I believe every one in our class will love you forever! Don’t leave us!!!" Rick

"Your class is interesting and you’re lovely, you make me know more things about your country. We’ll love you forever. I won’t forget the time that spend with you. I hope you can be happy at any time" Gaby


"Time goes by quickly. You will leave us tomorrow and maybe we want meet again, but i think i’ii remember you forever. Your classes are really interesting though I can’t understand some words. I'm sure you are a good teacher. First, you are friendly with us. Next you always play games with us and make classes more interesting. Also, you often encourage us to be brave and express ourselves. That’s very cool. In a word, we will miss you". Crystal


"We live and study together these days. Thanks for your original teaching skills. My classmates and I can be good friends quickly. With the help of you, we can open up our eyes to the outside world. It’s so kind of you to teach us as much as you can and now we have to leave. What a pity! But I want to say english is so amazing that it can connect different cultures. And we meet in Ruian, Wenzhou in the summer. At last, I want to sent some words toy ou. Don’t give up your dream, just keep on chasing your dream. Don’t forget me!! ^v^" Mark

"I think you are our friends rather than a strict teacher. You are very cute. Sometimes you are very funny. You have many new ideas. You play with us. I think it’s really interesting. These days I learn a lot. And I’m very happy! I hope you happy in China!"


"Teacher, you are really really great. I love you very much. You are the most lovely teacher I have ever seen. I’m very glad to be your student. Although you may be do not know me, I still want to say “thanks” to you. Thanks to your help, I can be more and more outgoing. These day, I improve my spoken english and listening quickly because of you. I’m really really like you! I’m very sad because I really don;t want you to leave. At last, I hope you can smile and happy everyday! >.<"  Ice


"I love you forever" Cindy

"I think you are very kind and active teacher. I like your classes, because we get a lot of happiness. You can always make us laugh. Twelve days passes too quickly. It is really bad that you will leave tomorrow. I will miss you L this is an exciting experience. I have never met a foreigner in such a close distance. I can’t forget it. I wish you can have a great time in China. I hope you can go to our school next time!" Raise


"Dear teacher, i’m really happy to get on with you. In my eyes, you’re the best foreign teacher, because you bring the happiness to us. And you let us know more great songs. But I really dislike dancing. So you know please don;t make us dance. In the end, I donlt want you leave us. Ruian High School’s students love you forever!" Miller


"I hope you can like China and learn more chinese. Also, I hope you can eat food in different places of China. Because different places have different food in China. All of them are delicious!"


"Dear Chacu when I meet you first time, I think you are very cute and a little shy. You always say “Oh My God” or “cool”, even though I don’t know this means but I think it’s the way for you to communicate with us. In your class, I fell very happy. Your class makes my summer camp lessons become more colorful. I hope you can keep happy everyday". Lisa

"I have an unforgotton experience. Although it is not long. On the first day, I felt surprised that Chacu would teach us. But during these days I feel happy. Chacu is not very tall. She is a little fat and black. But in my eyes, she is beautiful. During the summer vacation, I sometimes feel bored even want to return home. But because of Chacu I feel happy. Chacu is strange because she always put the scarf on her head. It soon to says goodbye. But I will miss Chacu, thank you Chacu I love you Chacu >_< " Jan

Women ai ni, laoshi Chacu!

Continuing my old post about my exchange project in China (June 2012)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is always a goodbye after every hello :( now I want to tell you a story when I had my last day at the school. My tears were falling so hard that day, I didn't want to say goodbye to them :""""(

I was shocked. When I walked to class 9, Erica (the active girl from class 9) were standing infront of the class alone. And when I got closer to her, she suddenly running to the class and I heard she said "teacher is coming, teacher is coming, get ready!!!"

And when I walked into the room.... they were all standing and they wanted me to see the black board. And look what I found "Chacu we love you"... my tears were falling all of a sudden and they were all singing for me with chinese song! Oh God, I don't want to leave all of them, I want to be their teacher everyday. My tears kept falling so hard, pretty hard. And they kept screaming 'do not cry teacher please don't' and yes, my tears are kept falling even harder :"""""""""""""""")


I love you more my students :""""")

They were really love to make me cry... One boy, a headclass came infront of me and gave me one shirt full of signatures from all the students. "teacher this is for you, from all of us, I hope you love this and you can keep this in your country". Speechless, I felt like i wanted to stay forever in Ruian High School :"""""

My name with a correct letter!
I LOVE THEM, I LOVE THEM VERY MUCH :"""

After receiving the gift, I wore the shirt and asked all of the students to take a pict with me, with their free style they could ask to me. And here are the pictures, what a looooovely student i'm in love!!!

Teaching times! :---D

Continuing my old post about my exchange project in China (June 2012)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here, I will tell you full stories when I taught these loooooovely students, I miss them like krazey :--((


I taught 2 classes in Ruian High School, class 9th and 10th. They were actually at the first year, but devided into 12 classes. Both times were arranged by the teacher there, I just need to follow the schedule given. The early morning class started at 7am, and the latest at 8pm! (they studied like hell, but for a good way). One day I could taught 2 classes/1class, depends on the schedule.

At first I was worried whether I can make it or not. Whether I can be a good teacher or not. Whether they will accept me or not. My grammar was and still, sucks. My knowledge about how to teach english lesson was zero. One thing that I have was only... courage. I want to be their close friends, I want to play with them. That was it.

Until I finally came to the class..... they were all very shocked  "who the hell this girl coming to class wearing that awkward scarf". I was enjoying their 'shocking' face while staring at me. Some of them were whispering at each other 'pssst pssst who is she who is she'. I smiled at them, step by step introducing my self. But then after I introduced my self, after we talked, after we discussed about the lessons and everything, they were all uber cute!!! They were accept me like really, I was starting to love them :')


These are the picture of class 9 during class session:


Hello class 9! My messy table and their lovely faces

I love their spirit when I asked them to bond with other students

One of my favorite student! look at the girl behind, she's so active and funny! <3 td="">

Hey look at my camera: and they gave me their lovely smile!

Sing a song times!

Even boys are very active and attractive to each other, I love them!

My awesome boyband! :D
They are all bery cute and funny!!!

"Teacher, I want to take a picture with you" :""")
Class 9 were oh-sooooo-active and lovely!!! I could even stayyy longer than I should, I was not their teacher, i was their close friends! <333 font="">

I still have one class to teach, class 10. Compare to class 9, this class was quite calm but of course, very lovely!


These are the picture of class 10 during class session:

My messy table and my shy-at-first students at class 10

Our first meeting, my first time capturing them
Say cheeseeee!

This is when we had a sing-a-song lessons, at first they were all very shy, but after 2-3times, they even requested some songs!
I showed them the video about Indonesia

Peace! that man behind is actually the real teacher there, and he was so kind!

Trying so hard to take a pict with my students :""D

Come on take a picture with me, and this is the result hahaha

This my favorite yet funny part in class! every 1 hour, a song played in each class, chinese song. That was a time when the students need to take a rest by doing a massage to their face. Every 30 seconds they will move the massage from cheek to eyes to forehead to nose. The purpose is not to make them feel sleepy, and to freshen up their face.

New 'Home'


A bright new day!

Writing this post at my new office, the 3rd company that I work for. Decided to move from a big multinational company to a new-startup company was a big decision in my life. As I posted on path weeks ago:

3rd company for the past 7 months, 'you are very good at resign from a company, how dare you chacu!' said one of my friend hahahaha damn his right. I ever think that 'I can't work at the office and doing company's thingy or people's order, boring! I think I should just create my own business as an entrepreneur but what?!' I skipped that thought and just keep applying for a job. And now here I am. As a marketing & sales for IT company.

Yes IT. No Idea that I could work for IT company since my background is from communication. But I believe this company is the best place for me to grow yet. I do love the people, the managers, the CEO they are all working with heart. I love the building, I love the city. I love the environment.

I looked up for the comforts, doesn't mean that I don't want to go from my comfort zone but from what I had experienced, when you can't love what you do then do what you love. And this is what I love. I hope I could stay at this company longer, Amin.

Catch ya later virtual version of me! -C-
