Bibong BIBO and Blessed 2.0

It's been a while since I've written something here in my personal wall. It's just that there's nothing to write about, my life lately has been very predictable-->wake-up-eat-open the computer-open skype-have lessons-afternoon nap-wake up-have lessons-sleep just that, an endless cycle of the same thing everyday. Surprisingly though, I am not complaining about the routine anymore because I get to like it, perhaps if you ask me what I feel about that kind of routine,let's say 2 years ago, the answer would be totally different and depressing. Right now, I have a different perspective. I am beyond blessed in a lot of ways. I am so glad to stick around and be part of a company and get a chance to see how it grows, I feel like I was growing along with them too. I am one of the teachers in the first batch in DMM Eikaiwa. Flashback February, we were just starting, we only have few students, you are lucky if you get one reservation in a day. From fewer students, it gradually increases plus they had the 980 yen per month promo too so a lot of students were coming in. Then they increased the price, the students went away too, we were back to "you-are-lucky-if-you-get-reservations" phase. I was having doubts by then if I'll stay or not because I am supporting my family and five reservations a day isn't enough to get by with our daily needs and bills. The reason why I stick a bit longer is that I get used to their system, I love DMM's system, it's hassle-free and schedules are easy to manage. I have regular students too, so I was really torn. That was then, but now, everything seems to be doing well, I think the nationwide commercial totally works and the low-priced lessons too was what attracted students to join DMM. There are a lot of students joining us and it means one thing, more reservations. I am so blessed because I got plenty of reservations these days and the good comments from my students encourages me to be better at what I do and to continuously try to improve more on my teaching skills. I get to meet new students. I am really happy because I get to help students improve their English skills and being appreciated doing it is just a bonus. I am very happy I stayed and I don't mind doing the same thing everyday.
