Wow can you guys believe that I won the competition… because I can’t!!! Today I received my PRIZE!!! (cheque) for winning the competition and this is what happened..

I was super excited to see what’s inside the “envelope”, so I started tearing it from its side. As I was tearing the side, I was like “Ooooh, I should keep this envelope as a memory!” so instead of tearing it, I used a ruler to open it up.
When I got the cheque out of the envelope I realised that I was almost about to rip the cheque its self! That was a very very very scary moment.
Anyway
I will update you guys later about my after CELTA experiences & after winning the ESLBASE competition experience.

Tomorrow 31/12/2007 will be the end of a year, the beginning of a new year and a new life for the competition winner. I wish all my colleagues in the competition for the very best out of year 2008 and good luck with the competition results.
Whether we win or lose, the important thing is that we win the hearts of our students and feed that language passion into their souls, so they may actually remember us by saying something like; “My English is good because of that one teacher I had from back in day”.
Well I guess this is it. Thank you for joining me in this wonderful journey and thanks for the amazing ride ESLBase.
Oh and how can I forget…
