what a day AGAIN!

Tuesday, April 29, 2008

Today's like a continuation of yesterday's story...AHH!

It was peaceful on a normal tuesday morning in Sg...but chaos started to set in when i went for my first tuition class for today. AHHH!!! I can't believe it's that ridiculous!

I was supposed to have a class with a primary 5 girl somewhere quite far from my house at 5pm. So i went there and since it was a Condo, i had to go through security check first, call the house and all that procedures la, to ensure i'm not a conman(or con girl?) or something....if i look like a con girl, anyone can easily be a con!! waited outside for a few minutes just to get an answer of, "the owner doesn't recognise you."

I started to heat up within...i came before dear owner!!!

So i called the granny (apparently the granny seems to be more concerned about her granddaughter's studies than her parents....i wonder why??) and said i'm the tuition teacher..then she told me sorry...cos the girl was not home from a school outing yet. so can't have tuition..

SORRY??

what sorry!? i don't want sorry! i travelled all the way to give tuition and not to hear you say sorry! AHHH!!! I was so pissed off with her forgetfulness and also with her not replying my sms when i replied her.....but can forgive a bit cos she's an old lady. but still......!

Moreover, the primary 3 girl (Wei Lin) wanted to watch the last episode of the HK series at 7pm tonight, so her mother called me to change time.

I heated up even more........................................


my mood was all gone by then...gone! What on earth is all these? I'm only a small tuition teacher....please have mercy with your last minutes! I dislike last minutes!

last minutes are no minutes with lame excuses.......................

anyway, i finally arranged a time for WeiLin so she can watch her last episode (-_-) and i realised i didn't make her do a lot of work. We were chatting most of the time...and i told her my crazy day with all these crazy happenings. I was surprised she understood me! WOW! She even gave me her opinions......

I was comforted......really..

Despite all these messiness, I still thank God for the wonderful things that happened @ other parts of the day, including wei buying dinner for me and daddy offering his car rides to me. :) :) Thank you daddy and wei so much! I really appreciate ur help..... :D

I'm hoping that tmr will be a better day..CHEERS!


what a day!

Phew!

What a Monday!

I was very tired and napped a while in the afternoon...and i was blur enough to set my alarm at 3.51pm when i had music teaching at 3.30pm. I got a shock when the phone call came from the parent..AHHH!!!

I OVERSLEPT!!

I couldn't believe i overslept! i seldom do that! so quickly i got up and rushed to the studio...even after class my mind was still in the rushing mode. I tend to do things so quickly without stopping..oh my! Is that the side effect? haha.........

Overall, today was a rushing day.....i don't like this kind of lifestyle. but i guess it's just how the world is now..

fast fast fast.................

i saw SEX!

I'm currently reading this book by John and Stasi Eldredge, called Captivating- Unveiling the Mystery of a Woman's Soul. It's a pretty book with nice clothings. :) But most of all is its contents...they were beautiful in the sense that they speak directly into my heart. I believe not only mine, but all women....

What I found so true is that women are afraid of being abandoned, of being left alone....well, i am whom the book describes as. This is only one part which impacted me as i was reading...there're of course more about women :) U can borrow it if u want to but after i finish reading....guys also can :) hehe...

A few days ago, i was reading on this chapter, "Romanced", where God is our romancer. He says in Jeremiah 31:3, "I have loved you with an EVERLASTING love.". Don't you find it so so amazing to be loved by a God so high? :) Then came a part of this chapter........i'll just summarise it for u.

John(Stasi's husband) was on a business trip to Oregon and he took some time alone to be with God, and went down to the beach. He walked and prayed and finally sat down on the sand to watch the waves upon the sea. Then he SAW it!! He saw a huge plume of water shoot up into the sky and a massive humpback whale appeared right before him. There was no one around and the time of the whale's annual migration had long passed. John knew it was a gift from God to his heart alone, a gift from the Lover of his heart.

John then told Stasi about his experience and Stasi wanted it for herself too.....so she took an opportunity to be alone with God, similarly by the sea in another place different from John. She wanted a whale too and asked God for it. But she waited and waited, the whale did not appear?? So after waiting for quite a while, she got up and went. (okok, here's the cool part..!) As she was walking, she came upon a starfish, a beautiful orange startfish. And at once she knew it was a gift from God to her. God didn't give her a whale but a stunning starfish! She thanked him for it and as she walked on, she came upon a sight which she will never forget. There before her, behind her, surrounding her, there were hundreds of starfish! Zillions of them! There were purple, orange and blue ones in all sizes! Her heart jumped for joy because she knew God didn't just love her, He LOOOOVED her!


Isn't that amazing???? ahh!!! I want that too! I was so tired of everything that happened in my life recently.....so so tired. and afraid at the same time..About future studies and relationships etc. I just fell before Him and cried. Then i remembered this incident in the book.

I didn't ask for a whale or starfish....haha! so weird to see a whale in my backyard! i asked for butterflies...i told GOd to cheer me up with butterflies. i want to see very colourful ones....as usual, i waited and waited. I was staring out of my window and nothing flew pass..so i thought i wouldn't get to see the butterflies. so i drew my curtains..

And as i wanting to drive to yf, i started my car engine, a housefly flew towards my car windscreen and stucked itself there..i was disgusted at it. I was wondering how come this housefly is so huge? as i took a closer look, oh my goodness!!!! guess what???

THEY WERE HAVING SEX!!! RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES!!!

I can't believe it! After watching so many documentaries on animal planet, I've never seen flies mating before...and there they were, the male on top of the female. It was wonderful to see them doing that thing so close up! cool isn't it??and in yf, the topic was on healthy relationships. HAHA! what a match!

And only last night then i realised, it was actually a gift from God to me! It was just like how John got a whale and Stasi got startfishes! I got houseflies! hehe! well, it may sound so untrue, how could God give me houseflies as a gift?? But i just know it....and i was so delighted! i want more Lord! I want more! thank you so much! I know you LOOOVVEE me!

But previously in the car, i didn't realise it was a gift from God.......i was naughty. I swept the couple of with my wipers!!..........

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!! Oops.....sorry God!

As i was reading the newspaper this morning, the pages were flooded with, "prices are rising!". In the past few weeks, I didn't feel that i was affected by it...and to me this issue was somehow a distant crisis that doesn't require help from small figures like me.

However, it did knock me on the head this morning..OUCH!

Inflation hits 26 year record high for March in Singapore. Practically everything rose.

  1. Recreation (that means i should play less badminton? how can?!)
  2. Health care (don't fall sick!)
  3. Education and stationery
  4. Housing
  5. Food (must eat lesser now...aiyoh!)
  6. Clothing (no more shopping :( ) and footwear
  7. Transport and communication.
But of course looking at singapore alone is insufficient..my teachers used to tell me, "Singapore is not the whole world!!" Haha...it made sense :)

Thailand is to set aside more land for farming so that rice production can increase from 9.2 million ha to 9.7 million ha. Yes it is one probable way of controlling the rise in prices for food but what if the weather doesn't permit good crop yield? then how?? Plus Europe is returning to burning coal for energy becos oil and gas prices are soaring. Coal is the dirtiest way of obtaining energy! Can't imagine the skies being so polluted! yucks! Even if it involves clean coal (where they try to reduce pollution caused by burning of coal), it would cost billions of dollars in investment and more advanced technology.

Ok my point of all saying all these is not to bore u with statistics but to remind u again of what this world is becoming of. Every day new problems arises...one leads to another. It's like a cycle. They never seem to end. What will become of this earth? I don't dare to imagine..I wonder if there will be any future for our children and our children's children??

The world is dying!! :( So please do your best to save it....save electricity and water and don't waste food (i'm trying too...hehe).

OK...

after 2 months and 7 days, this is my 2nd post..
haha! so pathetic!

But anyway, i had home tuition in singapore, teaching a primary 3 girl also called (Wei Ling-g=Wei Lin). She's very talkative and sometimes i'm just irritated bcos i can't keep up with her talking.

I've taught her for almost 3 weeks already and u know what? Everytime i pressed the doorbell of her HUGE 3-storey mansion, a 3 year old will come running to the door. I assumed she was welcoming me...so adorable! and i'm so honoured :) plus she smiled at me each time i waved at her from outside!

Today was quite a lonely day :( Cos wei went to school early as usual, mummy is in taiwan and daddy went out early too. So when i woke up, i saw nobody........that feeling is bad bad bad. But i realised i can complete many more things when i'm alone..My morning started of getting really pissed off when i realised that the laptop was gone!

It was lying there on the table last night! I knew wei took it to school...cos when i was in JC, my friends brought laptops to school becos of Project Work (PW)-counted as an A-level subject but its existence is really of no constructive purpose at all. I smsed wei twice to tell her off bcos i needed to use it! and when she replied, she said daddy was going to bring it home soon..

OOPSie......................so paiseh! and i was so argh! sorry for telling her off any-oh-how..didn't wanna quarrel on the first day of mummy-less. I was commanded in that sense to take care of her and wash her clothes and boil the water and this and that.

and tmr, i'm going to cook lunch for myself! hehe....i'm not the cooking type of girl (unlike pek pek), so it is a challenge. I'm the guinea pig of my cooking!
