a thousand miles of journey begin with a single step....

The hari raya week was a break-for-any-assignment-week as I was very busy helping at home. Even my mind can’t put aside all the assignments…but hari raya still hari raya. It is once a year and that was the only time my parents, my 11 siblings and me can meet and be together. It was a priceless time that I always waiting for.
However, during the 3rd night of raya, I begin to switch on my laptop and start cracking my head and pleading to my siblings for any ideas to be contributed for my assignment as assignment 3 require me to prepare 4 lesson plans on topic ‘culture and tradition’. But then, raya mood still all around the air filling the atmosphere….its very difficult to have ideas that time. But then, at last I managed to have a draft of what I am going to do. Even, it was just a skeleton, but I think it should be helping a lot before creating the whole body. “a thousand miles of journey begin with a single step” right?
These words inspired me to start my work. Therefore, I managed to start on with the first two lesson plans. The remaining two I planned to do it after I reach college.
While doing my assignment, I realize one more thing. As I was doing this assignment at home, it was not as the same in college where at college I can focus more on my work. But then, at home, there were another task and chores that should be done where the chores should be done immediately. Thus, it was quite challenging for me. Then, I began to realize that this is the life. In the future, as being a teacher, it will not be only the teaching that I should do. Instead, there will be another task such as curriculum activities or sports day or outdoor competition. These activities should be lead by teacher. Therefore, doing assignments plus with other task teach me how to face the real life later. I began to realize that teacher is not only teaching…..:)
