i’ve stumbled upon my Math53 professor, Sir Vryan Gil Palma, on friendster while furnishing our EEE44 power point presentation (yes, it was moved another week! )..  This professor, although belittled by some friends who i share him about, have been an inspiration to those who’ve known him, including me. I am not surprised that his past students continue to greet him even if he is now in Germany. It’s funny how i’m moved by his attitude towards his students and most especially, towards life. In fact, i’ve even made descriptive paper about him in English 1. Even his cheesy theorem MATH=FUN amazes me that there is really this kind of person who wants to touch lives so much. who am i to tell this? I write what i feel, and i feel that his optimism and love for life makes him a great person.

I’m happy to have known him even for a short while.His teachings will always be with me. My prayers will always be with him.  I may be one of the million people he have known seemingly to be forgotten, but to me, he is one of those people that made my blurry path clear.

I envy him. I want to be like him. A teacher and an inspiration…
