Just back from family movie, Hua Mu Lan! Seriously, having a mega crush on Prince WenTai. And a happy tune to end my happy day.
Shannie went for a hair cut this afternoon and I swore I will not go back there again. Feel like staying in the cave for 2 weeks before they grow again.

Yes, I'm back to blogging again =)
Alot to update about school and outing with dearies.

June THAM is back from Aussie! So happy , went down to the airport to 'fetch' her. Haha, she didnt change one least bit.

Today,we went to give baby val a surprise at her place. I threw in her present and she thought a kid threw that into her home. -___-" and the best part was, she didnt dare to open the package. HAHAHA

Hope she loved the new piece that we bought for her, I like it alot! wanted that for myself too. And and, I was so inspired by her to learn the electone. The sound effect of the electone is so interesting, not to mention it's 11K.

Okay.. now my to buy list in future will be....
1. Baby Grand
2. Electone
( * After buying all the above, I should be too poor to afford a car . HAHAHA.. must save up now =P)

Thanks girl, enjoy the day together. We must make full use of our holi to meet up !

Nice =)

It's been awhile ever since my past entry.. Currently,I'm 21, someone bursting with energy and mind packs with overflowing ideas.. Plus, lots of free time! It's difficult to get people to hang out over tea, or just to lay down a mat and have a pinic. 6 more days and I'll be starting school and living in the hostel with my inseparated soulmate-Hunny. Haha

Should be rested enough mentally and physically..



Chanced upon this book in the library, on a 26 yr old lady who decided to voulnteer herself for a year at a place in Himalaya. I borrowed this book as I wanted to volunteer myself for a 21 days event in India, this coming dec. However, my dad objects to my idea. I really love the idea of been plunge into a foreign land to explore the meaning of life/ or simply to feel fresh again.

I feel old enough to travel alone. Please let me do it.
How i hope I could just grab my luggage and travel alone tomorrow.
Peharp, when Im old enough to fight for my freedom, I would just go to some secular place on Earth to set up a village school. Hhaha.. been harbouring that sort of thought..

Countdown to my new phase of life : 18 days


My dear TM4 surprised me yesterday!

Hunny , first appeared on my doorstep,followed by June and Valerie. I was again being surprise-attacked by my dear friends again. Yes, I knew my birthday was already a history. BUT, thanks to June' forgetfulness, I got this surprise.



It's was meant to be a surprise for June as well ( which I didnt know of).




Her birthday is coming, and we're so gonna celebrate it for her next Monday, before she left for Aust.



Thank Girls for the present!

Our dream: We walk down the street on Paris in STYLE when we're rich. Maybe she could roam about in Aussie with this first.

My masterpiece..done yesterday

looking forward to tomorrow studioshoot with Michelle. Didnt really know what to expect, just hope that the money is worth it

Children Learn What They Live

If children live with hostility,
they learn to fight.

If children live with ridicule,
they learn to be shy.

If children live with tolerance,
they learn to be patient.

If children live with encouragement,
they learn confidence.

If children live with praise,
they learn to appreciate.

If children live with fairness,
they learn justice.

If children live with security,
they learn faith.

If children live with approval,
they learn to like themselves.

If children live with acceptance, and friendship,
they learn to find love in the world.

I'm all ready for work =)

THE CREATION OF THE TEACHER

The Good Lord was creating teachers. It was His sixth day of 'overtime' and He knew that this was a tremendous responsibility for teachers would touch the lives of so many impressionable young children. An angel appeared to Him and said, "You are taking a long time to figure this one out."

"Yes," said the Lord, " but have you read the specs on this order?"

TEACHER:

…must stand above all students, yet be on their level
... must be able to do 180 things not connected with the subject being taught
... must run on coffee, coke and leftovers,
... must communicate vital knowledge to all students daily and be right most of the time
... must have more time for others than for herself/himself
... must have a smile that can endure through pay cuts, problematic children, and worried parents
... must go on teaching when parents question every move and others are not supportive
... must have 6 pair of hands.

"Six pair of hands, " said the angel, "that's impossible"
"Well, " said the Lord, " it is not the hands that are the problem. It is the three pairs of eyes that are presenting the most difficulty!"

The angel looked incredulous, " Three pairs of eyes...on a standard model?"

The Lord nodded His head, " One pair can see a student for what he is and not what others have labeled him as. Another pair of eyes is in the back of the teacher's head to see what should not be seen, but what must be known. The eyes in the front are only to look at the child as he/she 'acts out' in order to reflect, " I understand and I still believe in you",
without so much as saying a word to the child."

"Lord, " said the angel, " this is a very large project and I think
you should work on it tomorrow".

"I can't," said the Lord, " for I have come very close to creating something much like Myself. I have one that comes to work when he/she is sick.....teaches a class of children that do not want to learn....has a special place in his/her heart for children who are not his/her own.....understands the struggles of those who have difficulty....never takes the students for granted..."

The angel looked closely at the model the Lord was creating.
"It is too soft-hearted, " said the angel.

"Yes," said the Lord, " but also tough, You can not imagine what this teacher can endure or do, if necessary".

"Can this teacher think?" asked the angel.

"Not only think," said the Lord,. "but reason and compromise."

The angel came closer to have a better look at the model and ran his finger
over the teacher's cheek.

"Well, Lord, " said the angel, your job looks fine but there is a leak. I told you that you were putting too much into this model.
You can not imagine the stress that will be placed upon the teacher."

The Lord moved in closer and lifted the drop of moisture from the teacher's cheek.
It shone and glistened in the light.

"It is not a leak," He said, "It is a tear."

"A tear? What is that?" asked the angel, "What is a tear for?"

The Lord replied with great thought, " It is for the joy and pride of seeing a child accomplish even the smallest task. It is for the loneliness of children who have a hard time to fit in and it is for compassion for the feelings of their parents. It comes from the pain of not being able to reach some children and the disappointment those children feel in themselves. It comes often when a teacher has been with a class for a year and must say good-bye to those students
and get ready to welcome a new class."

"My, " said the angel, " The tear thing is a great idea...You are a genius!!"
The Lord looked somber, "I didn't put it there."
