I've been busy with these few months that have passed. I didn't have the chance to enjoy our Brgy.'s fiesta early in May. I was so caught up with so many things because I'd been working hard to make sure the expected amount was for our wedding. Sometimes I end up wondering in the evening when I was going to sleep. Then there were those times that every morning when I woke up my body was so heavy. I could tell my body reached the limit and had no more space to exceed more. 

Indeed, you can not handle the same things at once. You can not have fun while working hard to earn. I'm not being negative here, I'm just stating the fact when you are doing your best desperately compared to working but chilling. Yes, you can still have fun while working but it can only happen when you're not that too focused to earn more. 

Quite an intro, right? Well, I'm just a little bit disappointed how I could not spend time on writing. But this time, I forced myself to write despite the situation I am in at this moment. I'm not sure if it will finish good or bad. My intention in this writing anyway is to share photos from when I had the chance to visit elementary schools weeks ago.  This will be a #wednesdaywalk post by @tattoodjay and #makemesmile by @elizacheng after all. My girlfriend is currently applying for an elementary teacher position. That's why I had the chance to look back on how it was long ago. 

Elementary schools do have a playground. This is where the children have fun during their break or recess. I can still remember how we enjoyed the break time we had playing on a playground while enjoying our food. Of course, it's not so vivid because of how long it was that passed.   

One thing that every school has in common is a friendly environment. This kind of environment should be maintained. In order for everyone to have a peaceful and relaxing feeling while they are learning. Don't get me wrong, even teachers should have healthy surroundings as well. That way they can teach well because their mind is open or clear.  As you can see, it's nice to grow plants, trees, and well-take care of grasses. 

Aside from the playground, a school should have gardens too. It's a good practice for children in growing plants. They will find it fun too when the flowers bloom and the vegetables bear fruits. We were like that in our elementary days, while we took care of the plants, we played at the same time. But for now, from what I learned, it's just too sad that children are not advised to have a garden. Some found it very hard especially for the rich people. But well, I don't think they'd understand what the children are thinking. 

It looks like I was taking a break coming to school but actually, it was not. I came here to help my girlfriend with her demonstration in hopes of getting a job. I was not roaming around but sitting on a chair surrounded with pupils while creating lesson plans and powerpoint presentations. 

Thank you for reading
