- The Freedom Writers -


- = The Freedom Writers = -

I watched this movie just now, a one great movie which I haven't watched in a while.
To me, this movie was fabulous... You can read more about the plot here However, just thought of giving this a thought. When you see the below pic, what do you think of?


You might have just saw an image of some funny old man with a huge nose, wearing a hat with the star of david.

And how about this?



Some black kid with big lips?

The first pic is actually a picture of a Jew which people drew before and during the Holocaust. And the second is one which some kid did for funnn....

You might be shot at if you produced those pictures during that time.

I'm glad I live in Malaysia. Although we live in a multi-cultural society, I guess it wasn't as bad as the Jews living in Italy, Germany etc, or the African Amerians in America getting some racial prejudice every single day.

Hilary Swank acted as Erin Gruwel in this film. Teaching is indeed a noble job. A job which gives you the ability to impact people, or just fill your pockets with 'easy' money everyday. haha... Anyway heres the picture of the true Erin Gruwel. I encourage you to google her. She has a very inspiring story to share :)



I always remember that teacher Lee Tian Ying (Lee Lao Shi) from my primary school giving me a bear hug when i went on MC for almost a week after getting chicken pox...

I remember my Junior Middle Two teacher Chen Lao Shi who always encouraged and believed I could do it after the year I failed my grade and had to retain and repeat my Junior middle 2 (Form 2) for another year.... (In which that year, i obtained a 80% average for the whole accademic year and 2nd in class)

Maybe I could consider teaching?? heheh... You'll never know! :)

P.S. I actually own a Home schooling center in Johor Bahru. (By name only lah.... my parrents running it) do contact me if you are looking for a place where lives will be changed! Contact me for more info ;)
