A Brand New Start
To sum up my 3 months plus in NIE so far: A long deep sleep which I feared not being able to wake up.
Now I finally woke up, after much struggle and turmoil, & have come to realised there were so many things & so much fun which I had missed. It was just an amazing journey, which I had tasted different emotions, seen sights and heard stories which I had not come across or not expect in school. I used to think that I am stable, that I could be mature enough to handle most issues or challenges, including friendship. But these 3 months have revealed to me that Im not that mature afterall, haha. I realised I can be quite naive & gullible. Its better to be late than never nontheless. I think I have grew slightly after having gone through some experiences. Cool.
Attended Ms Karen Chin's wedding in Johor Bahru on 2/11/08. Caught up with alot of teachers & the company was awesome. A chartered bus brought all of us in Singapore directly to the hotel, where we were given a separte room with ktv! Haha, sang a few songs with a few teachers, & hmm, they all can sing well. No one will believe we are teachers. Hmm, miss Lunch Time Concert again. Miss Hendersonians again. Miss teaching again. BUT, we shouldn't live in our past, otherwise we won't be able to see our future ahead, which could be even better. I shall live on this principle, though the past will serve as my sweet memories but not my burden to hold me back from running forward.
Now its countdown to exams. 4 papers on 3 days & the 1st is next Tuesday.
Lord, give me the strength and resilience to overcome the everyday challenges that may come and give me the wisdom to discern right from wrong, black from white. Make me a better person so that I can do your will and I pray this for all my students and friends.
