Food for thought on a class feast



It was a Saturday like any normal Saturday, yet there was something in the air that indicates a happening of special occasions, a memorable event, and even a  feast. It was the smell of food. Western food traditional food all hand-made by one of our student Saiful, serunding, ketupat, spaghetti... you name them and we had had them.

The amazement of having a guy cooked us all these (and the taste is Superb with a big S) is totally unspeakable for a girl like me who can't even fry a sunny side up egg without making a big mess in kitchen, yet what touches me deep inside beyond the taste bud on my tongue was, his heart.

A heart of sharing and spreading kindness, and his wiling-ness to prepare his amazing delicious saliva-leaking food for his fellow classmates, Korean teacher, and staff in Suppli Language Solution, bringing food all the way from his house and sharing it with us in Suppli. It was beautifully amazing.

That is when i realize as if lightning of enlightenment strike me on my head that, a classroom with teacher and students could be so much more, so much more than what our human eyes can see. A classroom with teacher and student could actually evolve into a family-kind of tight bonding-ship. I like it, more than a kind of learning experience, in Suppli it has transcended into relationship-bond that can last a lifetime and more.
