My Students’ First Graduation

Yesterday, I attended my first graduation as a homeroom teacher. Nothing different from the final rehearsal, but I was touched during the time of teachers’ wishes to graduates. Surprisingly, I burst into tears because I was so touched with mixed feelings that I could be there as a teacher. The scenes that popped into my brain were how I walked through the difficulties and why I wanted to become a teacher. It’s been close to 20 years… since I started dreaming. I am proud that I chased my dream for long and insisted until the last minute.
