not unemployed

Monday.

First interview, 10am. 12pm, employed.

First job. (besides my prev 2 mths of industrial training)

It all happened so quick, i still haven't settle with the fact that i be working as a primary math teacher. I guess they needed one real quick... insisted i signed then n there? Guess that's my weakness hur? tend to give in under pressure. ish. but the pay is pretty good + workplace is near + i like the environment + the principle... so i guess that sort of compensate for the abruptness la.

The whole tone of the interview (as far as i recalled) was "when you teach here..." i can hardly remember what the principle or CEO asked me. I tingled "i'll consider... (smile) "since i applied for higher form in secondary instead. Next thing i know, i had a pen, a paper n ______ <- sign here

So there, here's miss ____ starting school on 1 aug. I'll be a form teacher for a class of 25 odd standard fives. Working fr 8-3.30 Mon-thus, and 1/2 day on fri. :)) Out of uni & back to school... woa. The last time i last mixed with kids was... ... primary 6? n... last 2 weeks ago helping out in sunday school. hmm...

meanwhile... looking for opportunities to go back uni again. elsewhere...

a picture

fading blossom

,,...

jst a few days ago she was clothe with a wreath of crowning bloom...

not the best shot here but i was drawn to her forlorn pose

it's my little cactus plant that's hidden

at the edge of the garden amidst other finer plants

one day it budded and the owner

began to notice it

so she was waited upon each day

at her quiet lil shade till her buds mature

into a deep maroon crest

high n lofty
at the tallest stalk

...

until she couldn't carry her head

that she had to be propped up

fame she stole (overnight)
and dozens of shots flew at her

every angle, every quarter of day

night drown

her crowning moment

here she is fading away
she covered her gaze with 2 robed arms (2 petals)
with 2 blooms left (e 2 remaining ones)

turned away fr u

retrieving herself

to her old spot

far from the stares of prickling rays

wic shone her to fame & mocked while she fade

to recollect herself

where she belongs

p.s- it's getting late n maybe sleep has faded me... duno what's her colour though...?

a green shooting star

a trail of green light travelled yonder... and vanished quickly with a yellow bright flash...

I was walking with mom at the playground after dinner... as i was staring into the night, i saw a shooting star ! I was thrilled ! First time ever !! felt my heart leaped like it first sighted hope. It's so rare to spot one in a city... not to mention tonight's sky was rather tarnish with city air and stars were sighted above in few faint dots.

But it's quite a strange colour for one. the trail was green, but the meteor? (last flame) was yellow. And it plunged pretty low into the atmosphere rather gracefully (or so i feel). I couldn't find any info on green shooting star in yahoo. Save one post, under the UFO session. (Not going there).. or could it be a lone fire-work that someone set up? or maybe the colour reflected was due to the polluted air ? ...?

awe-full-of-questions...

ahh...i was prepared to stay up all night naming all my wishes ;p

meanwhile...

"Attitude is your thought life turn inside out" ~JM

been forcasting storm these few days when i start to stare into the future... kinda wondering 'would i make it?", 'How?''... those thoughts were spinning n looming around me...trapped..

during worship last nite in CH, felt a voice knocking at my wrapped up head to "remember... remember..." then i realized i'd forgotten how faithful God has (have?) been to me in the past...felt guilty i chose worry as my companion instead... worrying is like being ingratitude towards an old friend who has always been there...

i'm glad he reminded me... and i slept peacefully knowing... knowing He be there... and it be well

meanwhile, i'm starting to teach a girl tuition... applying for tutoring positions in some private colleges. Pray they get back to me fast... and that i'll fill my holidays whipping up some skills.. i wouldn't mind walking ppl's dog or cat out for some extra tips too...anyone with pets n loads extra change to spare?

saw an old mansion written "St Paul's daughters" along jln gasing... am wondering, how's that possible ? ;p
