   3rd week thought, “Just enjoy your actual teaching. Let all negativity vanish and face the students with enthusiasm and smiles.”
    I had a class at 8:30 am in Monday, it was my first class. I didn’t know what to feel. Maybe I was thinking how students would react as I teach them. Maybe I was afraid of their impression of me as a teacher. Maybe I was pressured because I had to stay in front for 50 minutes. But all of these thoughts vanished when I actually started teaching. The moment my fellow student teacher introduced me as their new teacher, I saw some clapping as if they were excited to see me, all of them had smiling faces like they were glad to have me in the room. I had seen the great effort of students to learn despite the barriers. It was heart-warming. And that moment, I was in extreme happiness. 
    The greatness of my first teaching flowed for the whole week. No more doubts before entering the class. No more fear. No more questions. No more pressure. There was only hope for fruitful learning, enjoyment, and smiling faces.  
    And just like the previous weeks, I just realized it was already weekend. It was time to visit another place that speaks loudly of the Thai people. We went to the dam that serves as the electricity supply of the whole Surat Thani. We went to a museum and a temple. My heart was at rest with all the places we visited.
