One day, we had an activity in class. We have to draw anything that comes in our mind. I don't know what kind of joke my teacher had in mind. So I draw, like the rest.
As what I can remember I draw an old man with a hat (usually use by farmers). While watching from behind, she said, "Wow, you can draw fast and look at that, it's nice!"
Well it made me proud.
What I can't forget was the fact that she said this- "Someday you'll be a good artist, and by the way you draw, you can be great on doing editorial cartoon."
And what she didn't know about me - I HATE NEWSPAPERS!
That was 9 years before... Nine years... wew... (I have a good memory huh!)
Let me bring you now at the present.
I am now working as a writer, although I graduated to be a teacher. (I'll teach in the near future). I'm now serving at the local government and part of my job as a member of the Publishing Unit is to draw editorial cartoon. (One sample is up there).
Wow, I never thought that my teacher's words are so powerful that it already happened! Great! I hope she utter that I'll be a millionaire someday.. Ha ha ha.
Words are powerful, so be careful on what you will say...
