This moment is one of those moments when I just want
to scribble the thoughts that are inside of me and forget that I am actually
busy. I wish I am Rita Skeeter now so that I can have that
magical quill. My hands are tired but I want to blog. It’s just too bad that I
can’t use any forms of magic in this muggle world. I don’t want to receive a
howling letter from the Ministry of Magic.
I am still musing about the immensely timely source
of relief that J.K. Rowling gifted me. That article she posted in pottermore made me dreamy again-Harry with another intriguing scar. I want to go to Osaka and camp in USJ. I want to eat chocolate
frogs. I want to be lost in Hogsmeade.
Why do I usually think about Potter and his world
these days? It’s because I miss reading about it. I have grown busy with my new
job in the University. I am enjoying it to bits. I just miss having the luxury
of reading books of my choice and still get paid. I miss reading Harry Potter
with Makiko and Tomei. Oh … how I wish to be one of those people thronging USJ
Osaka.
I miss my Japanese students.
I miss my previous job. I can easily go back as a
part-time teacher but my time now won’t give me the liberty to be back.
I guess I really have to experience this sort of
feeling in my lifetime. Hence, I must remain cheerful and accept the things I
can’t change as of the moment without losing hope that one day, I can do it
again.
Reading has always been my escape to stress and
writing seals the happiness within. I love teaching but I also love other
things. I might have lost the equilibrium that’s why this feeling of longing to
those buoyed in unprecedented levels. I don’t really care if others think that
what I do is boring. I know people who could share the same wavelength as mine
and their biographies depict the awesomeness embed in reading, writing and
sharing. I am reminded of Malala’s United Nations speech which goes, “Let us pick up our books and our pens,
they are the most powerful weapons.” I couldn’t agree more.
I have resolved to
read I am Malala. I should read to
balance my life.
I should take more
pictures so that I could have many stories to share to my online students.
I have accepted that
God wants me to experience other things now so that when I’ll teach them, I can
have lots to share.
The best thing to do
is savor the uniqueness clamped in each spectrum. Indeed, it’s a wonderful and
colorful life.
