I Guess You Can Call Me Lucky - Teacher's Day

A decade of studying (and counting) might give you a question: what do I look for in a teacher? Do I want a teacher who is smart? wise? wise and smart? friendly? understanding? Of course! And I would want a teacher with all those qualities. Well, I could have won in a lottery. I could have gotten P500 load in a text that was sent accidentally. I could have had heterochromia iridum. But what I have never thought of is I could be this lucky. I have a teacher with all those things: her name is Louella Malimban, our "Ma'am Lucky".

I have been studying for quite a long time now in CNSHS, and I've had great teachers before, but I might never compare them to my current teacher in Analytic Geometry. A beautiful, smart, and a wise teacher, she was the one who convinced me that there will always be a teacher like Morrie for anyone. She never lets anyone not learn her lessons (and if anyone, after numerous times, still not understand a lesson, then it is not her problem anymore). She's very dedicated in her work, and she always knows what to answer to her students She never lets anyone not learn her lessons. She's always nice to everyone, understanding and very open-minded that it inspires me extremely to be like her. She's the perfect role model, that merely knowing her will inspire you to be like her. She can also be on the same wavelength as us students, and understand us in our troubles and everything. She gives the best advice according to the situation. I guess anyone will be satisfied with a teacher with those qualities, but that's just the cake and the icing, and here's the cherry on top: she's beautiful. See? It's so nice and fun to study when you have a teacher like her.

In all of my morning and first classes since my first year in CNSHS, I have never been more awake in discussions than in Analytic Geometry. I always loved discussions in AGeom. Even though it's a college-level subject being taught to us at third year high school, it's surprisingly understandable with Ma'am Lucky's way of teaching. Even under absurdly daunting circumstances, she gets the job done. Easily, the best teacher for me. 

Ma'am Lucky, in the happenstance that you are reading this, please know that I love you and your teaching, and you deserve the praises I gave. Thank you for always being the best for us hotheaded, quick-to-judge, pessimistic students. Thank you for everything. I will always remember you, and you will always have a place in my heart forever.
