Still Counting!

The "sol" will shine brighter today...with you!
.
Do you like my new header? That's one of the best birthday gifts I got, thanks to Jeff of Dubai Chronicles for going out of his way to do this for me. And here's another special gift that I received from our future medical doctor blogger friend NIKKI...
.
**********
.
...isa siyang pinay na guro sa ibang bansa, sumubok mamuhay dito sa pilipinas (at kahanga-hanga ang mga naging karanasan niya dito) pero piniling umalis para sa pamilya at doon, unti-unting nakikilala dahil sa kanyang kahusayan sa pagtuturo ng mga special children.
.
noong una, sisilip-silip lamang ako sa kanyang blog, nabasa ko na din ang kanyang buong kwento, hanggang sa hindi na nakukumpleto ang araw ko kapag hindi ko siya nadadaanan. sa madaling salita, ako ay isang "lurker" lamang noon. minsan kasi, hindi mo alam kung ano ang reception na makukuha mo kaya nakakatakot sumali sa usapan saka parang isa na silang malaking pamilyang nagpapalitan ng mga kuro-kuro, pakiramdam ko, intruder ako. kaya lang, mukhang mabait siya kaya isang araw nagkalakas loob akong mag-iwan ng comment sa blog niya. hindi ako nabigo kasi mabait pala talaga siya.
.
ipinadama niya sa akin na welcome ako at malayang makakapag-iwan ng mensahe sa blog niya. sa pagbabasa ng mga blogs niya, mas lumawak ang aking isip, nagkakaroon ako ng inspirasyon at nabubuhayan ng loob na sa kabila ng mga kasamaan at hindi magagandang nangyayari sa mundo at sa ating bansa, may mga tao pa palang katulad niya na good-hearted.
.
dahil sa kanya na-engganyo akong muling mag-blog kasi nag-iiwan siya ng mga comments at sa kanyang mga comments katulad ng kanyang blog, napag-iisip niya ako. dahil sa kanya, mas nagising ako sa mga nangyayari sa paligid ko. dahil din sa kanya, may mga nakilala pa akong ibang espesyal na tao na nakakapagpatawa at tumutulong na magpalawak pa ng aking isipan.
.
siya ang aking unang naging kaibigan sa blogsphere...kaya sa kanyang kaarawan, nais ko siyang batiin...happy birthday, teachersol! God bless u!

  23. Mam Sol,
    Hapi hapi bertdey! bagamat 29 pa lang diyan, dito sa amin 30 na kaya pwede na tayong mag-celebrate dito.

    galing ng bagong header. yung akin kaya kailan mababago para maging kasing gara ng site mo? (nagpaparinig kay Jeff).

  24. SAGOT KO SA IYONG ESPESYAL NA PAGBATI, NIKKI:

    Naluluha ako habang nagbabasa ng isinulat mo dito sa entry mo. Hindi ko alam na malaki pala ang naging impluwensya ko sa iyo sa pagiging blogger mo. Magda-dalawang buwan pa lang ang Teacher Sol blog ko, akala ko nga matagal ka na rin na blogger. Magda-dalawang buwan palang pero parang ang dami na rin nangyari sa blog ko: nakaranas na rin ng matinding problema tulad ng na-TROLL ako, marami na ring naging kaibigan, marami na ring natutunan sa pag blog-hopping ko sa blogs ninyo.

    Natutuwa ako dahil maraming nagsasabi na welcoming nga ang blog ni Teacher Sol, mapagkumbaba, at maraming impormasyon na makakapagbigay ng inspirasyon. Yan talaga ang nais ko sanang mangyari habang tumatagal ang aking blog. Marami sanang matulungan at mabigyan ng inspirasyon sa mga ibinibigay ko na impormasyon sa aking entries. Ang aking achievements ay hindi para sa akin lang, lahat ng iyon ay isinasama ko sa entries ko para sana malaman ng aking mga mambabasa na kaya nating gawin kahit anong gusto nating gawin, kahit nasaang lugar pa tayo, kung talagang pagsusumikapan natin.

    Nagdaan ako sa butas ng karayom, kung nabasa mo sa Digital Book ko. At sa lahat ng hirap na dinanas ko sa buhay, marami akong natutunan. Sana sa pagsusulat ko at pagbabasa ninyo, may maibahagi rin akong aral kahit papaano.

    Thank you for letting me know that I made a difference in your blogging life. keep writing, I will keep reading. Thank you for this special gift from you.

    Teacher Sol, munting handog sa kaarawan mo

    Nang isilang ka a mundong ito
    Laking tuwa ng nanay at tatay mo
    Nahilo rin ang mahal mo sigurado ako
    Nang masungkit niya ang matamis mong “oo”

    Nang dumating si Rae sa buhay ninyo
    Galing sa Diyos kay gandang regalo
    Ibinigay pa rin Niya tunay na pangarap mo
    Diyan sa ibang bansa, Pinay kang taas noo

    Ikaw ay naging huwaran ng mga kakilala mo
    Naging inspirasyon sa “blogging world” na ito
    Kapag sa isang araw di ko nabasa ang drama mo
    Para bagang adik, nagigiyang ang utak ko

    Nabibingit ka nang maglaho sa kalendaryo
    Ano pa kaya ang mahihiling mo, kaibigan ko?
    Kung ako lang ay madyikera o kaya engkanto
    Isang tiklis na mangga, ngayon din nasa tabi mo!

    Have a blessed birthday!

    ISABELA, girl, nakakatuwa ang version mo ng kantang ito...only for me ha...hehehe. Alam mo bang bukod sa paborito ko ang mangga, napaka-memorable sa akin ng prutas na iyan. bakit? Ito ang kaputol ng kwento ng aking buhay galing sa aking DIGITAL BOOK (click my name's link here for the complete story):


    Not a soul told me what pregnancy would bring. It brought all these unexplainable emotions and mood swings. I couldn’t forget one time when I was salivating and was badly craving to have a taste of a ripe mango. So I asked Reiner to buy me a mango from the market fast. After an hour, he came back with an iced drop,


    “ Mangoes are really expensive now, this is all I could afford...mango flavored iced drop.”


    I wanted to cry.

  57. "I just noticed we started blogging at the same month last year, July 2004!" -Watson

    Technically, that's true. I started blogging end of July 2004 with this blog being my test blog. In the header was written "My Heart Whispers" and it was an anthology of poems I give as examples to my students for their class digital anthology. I updated once a month, because I was focused in another blog, MY DIGITAL BOOK (www.teachersol.blog-city.com), my lifestory according to me from birth 'til present.

    Then I got bored with the drama of my DIGITAL BOOK, I wanted something more interactive. Less than two months ago, I decided to change the title of the header of this blog, the layout, etc...and the poems were set aside in the links. This Teacher Sol blog was born, updated almost everyday except on weekends.

    Many thanks to all of you, MY DEAR BLOGGER FRIENDS, for giving me more appetite to write. Your comments are very encouraging, and I learn a lot from your blogs too when I do my rounds (blog hopping).

    Your birthday greetings are overwhelming. Proof that my blog is doing its job of... creating good friendship with fellow bloggers, being fun & interactive, imparting quality information through my entries, and most of all, being proactive and inspiring.

    Let's countinue our symbiotic relationship of teaching and learning from each other. Thank you so much everyone!

    Teacher Sol, present po! Kaya lang late and I don't have an excuse slip *sob* but HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY kahit belated, it still comes with the same degree of sincerity when I wish you all the best. Here's my simple birthday gift to you - a quotation that I have chosen especially for teachers like you:
    Of all the wonderful things in the wonderful universe of God, nothing seems to me more surprising than the planting of a seed in the blank earth and the result thereof. ~ Celia Thaxter
    Teaching is like planting these seeds. It may take many many birthdays - a long waiting time and lots of patience - before you see how bountiful your harvest will be, but that time will come. Again, happy birthday and my prayers for you, your family and your students.

  88. EVERYONE, I just read this now from the book The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren: "While it is wise to learn from experience, it is wiser to learn from the experiences of others".

    I am 31 and still counting. I've learned from my triumphs and failures, from the ups and downs in my life. But I want to learn from all of you too. Hence I read your blogs. I learn fom the comments you leave here too. I invite you to share your thoughts here, let me know what you think of my entries. I invite you here, I hope I am welcome leave a message in your blog too.

    Hi Sol,

    I was surfing this day, and of course i was oggling through your site and I was checking out some of your links as well as your past postings when i came about on your June 30 entry and it read 31...And Still Counting.

    Gee, I could not believe I miss that day, and not being able to greet you. maybe it was those days when i wasnt online always.I am a little embarrassed. Hope you could excuse my unseeming oversight.

    And so, since it was just barely about a month ago, let me me greet you HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the most famous teacher Ive ever known.

    Yours truly,

    Major Tom
