Kids Make 2 Ends of a Spectrum

my tuition kids do drive me nuts at times. with their mediocre results and attitudes problems.

i call them mediocre results because i know they can do much more. every individual has his or her potential and not exploiting it simply means it's freaking wasted.

aptitude without attitude equals to zero.

attitude without attitude is worth applauding.

why do some people have the capabilities yet they refuse to work on them?

yet some who do not have the capabilities are working their asses off?

but these are the same kids who make my day. was so surprised to receive teachers' day gifts from them. not cheered up by the material goods, but happy cuz they had that thought. least i feel appreciated. hahar.

the bonus is... the gifts are so unconventional. no keychains, soft toys, photoframes whatsoever... but so far, i got a tank top and a bag. as a year passes... and i wont be teaching most of them soon, i kindda miss em.

hmm, life's irony.

seriously, i wish em the best in their future endeavours.

God bless ya... Kiddos.. =)
