Miracle - indeed!


I am continuously challenged by Math even in elementary days .. our Math teacher would force us to memorize the multiplication table (she would “drill” us and made us stand if we couldn’t tell the correct answer to her flash cards!),then high school math to college math. (Nope, I did not major in Math.. I remember I failed BS Mathematics entrance exam in college, hehe) Math is hard because I need to think!…


BUT I would always convince myself that if I only knew the process, the technique in solving it, I would be able to get the correct answer.. just a matter of time, practice and simple belief..

Well, that belief has not left me.. because until now, I would still convince myself I am good in Math.. that in time (up to the one minute challenge) I would be able to get the correct answer!

In my wanting to put my belief in reality, I accepted the summer job to teach Math to Middle School students in New Orleans! AND believing I could make use of this skill to greater good.. I courageously and “quietly” signed up to take Praxis Middle School Mathematics, so I would be able to add-on another Louisiana certificate in my current SPED teaching certificate.

So come July 25, armored with my self-proclaimed Math skills, I took the test… it has 40 multiple choice and 3 constructed response questions…

Leaving the test center, I KNOW it would take a MIRACLE by August 25 (date of results) for me to PASS.






And I did! MIRACLE indeed! the passing score is 148. I got 149!!! Yahoooo!!!

I THANK GOD there is power in believing :)

I THANK GOD for all the Math teachers in my life! :)

Redirecting Thoughts!

Sometimes, we forget to take control of our minds. There are times that we just do a lot of things out of habit. We do a lot of things unconsciously. These days, whenever I find myself “thinking”, I am making sure I am thinking productive things. What will I do next?; What are my plans today?;How will I go about today’s activities? If alone in the car, driving, I’d deliberately turn on the positive, encouraging radio station, since their kind of music is good for the soul. I could listen and know that it is all good. As much as possible, I try not to think of negative or bad things. Why? Because I’ve proven that whenever I do that, it boomerangs on me! There was this one time when I felt so pissed off with my husband that my mind was just creating all these negative vibes! Asked what happened next? The more my husband got pissed off. I wasn’t even saying anything, it was all mind power, and it hasn’t done any good! So I experimented the next time it happened, ins...
