Great teachers makes Great sacrifices.

I was watching Gokusen and Yankumi-sensei sacrifices her career as a teacher just so her students can graduate.

Great teachers makes great sacrifices.

I remember reading a certain professor Liviu Librescu at Virginia Tech.
It's sad to know about the shoot-out at Virginia Tech.
Even if I was never involved by the people who were killed,
I felt deep sadness and get goosebumps too while reading
the tragedy as well as the profiles of those who were killed.
One of the thing that caught me was about Prof. Liviu Librescu.
He blocked the door with his body, asked his students to leave, while the gunman tries to enter.
The gunman even shot through the door.
The professor was a Holocaust survivor and what got me is that the day this happened
was the day was supposed to be an anniversary related to the Holocaust.
Most importantly, he gave up his life for his students.

It's really sad that first few profiles of the victims(some students) I read were not just 'regular students'.
Those students excelled in their field and got leadership skills.
Those people so young yet got lots of potentials.

The murderer according from reports rants about rich kids and probably stuff that may have irritated him/who bullied him.
He wanted to do revenge yet the people he killed, as far as I know, may not even be his real targets, I mean
the people he rants about/picked on him.

To the victims of VT, may you rest in peace.

Timely, it was also around this week when my former HS teacher left earth.
I will never forget when she visited me a week after my bday.
Then the next week, she had a heart attack.
She was confined in PGH then on a Friday, she went to rest.
I received the news through a text at around 3pm from my mom and I was commuting at that time.
It was surreal. It was like how will be the rest of us will be now that she's gone.

So as to refresh and lift our souls from these sad stories,
My mom and I will go to the Spa tomorrow.
I'm planning to color my hair. But it's certain I'll have a manicure-pedicure. While my mom would like to
try foot spa.

Uhm.. for the pics of my new hair do, I'll try to post. I'm still kinda embarrased. Sowee~ XD
