Tuesday with papa... Part 7
Tuesday. 11.28.06 9:48 am
before this, i am verymillions happy on sun morning b'cos i led my son to take his first step towards an extraordinary and honorable manhood by bringing him to pray and dedicate his life to Christ on Sunday morning! :D

ok, back to part 7 of tuesdays with papa... what do i feel about the fear of aging?

there is nothing scary about aging so long as i age wisely and gracefully. :D

in a couple of days, i will be 30 years old.
they say that a man is at his peak when he is 30.
he will be working hard to establish his career and consider starting a family.

for me, i want to be at my peak in becoming a GREAT (not just good) dad and husband that my kids and my wife can look up to. I want to be a man who can minister and help other men in fulfilling their roles well (i have heard of so many men who are exceling at work but are not exceling (or even existing) at home, a sad trend in current society). I want to improve and establish my teaching methods and materials to maximise learning for my kids and students. I want to establish some forms of passive income so that i can have more time for others without worrying about money. I want to be a mentor and an example for my current students who will be growing up into adults in a couple of years...

all these, i guess, are tangible goals for me to age wisely and gracefully if health permits...

now, where is my swimming trunk, fruit and vegetables? :P

open house' 06
Sunday. 11.26.06 10:48 am
what i (a teacher) can remember for my school's open house:

went at 7am... to print the poster for the science booth

not many people came this year as compared to last...

was in charge of the softball booth... there was only 1 enquiry the whole day "what sports is this? softball. is it for boys? no, only for girls. thanks. my child is a boy." LOL!
that's it!

spent most of my time learning the game under the sun, special thanks to my coaches, annabel, jiawen and tess. :D will be going with them for a match against cres girls on mon... :D

met boongoon, charmaine and jiaying (my ex-students) at the booth and had a nice short chat with them :D saw christabel as well but did not get to talk to her...

met bin bin... her sister might be coming in next year...

talked to xinjie and rebecca for a nice little while...

talked to cas about remedial, ended up with her saying that i am more suited for SJAB rather than softball... i think i am suited for both! :D

climbed over the high and locked field gate to retrieve the softballs that went astray... it's been a long while since i did such a dangerous stunt...

played netball with a mixture of people under the hot sun...

watched the dance, chinese orchestra, guzheng and band performances, which i thought was great!

read a fair bit of my current book...

played a bit of soccer with aswin and junjie...

sat down with yi ming and weihao for a chat outside the boys toilet...

talked to felicia for a while and realised that she was marching during the performance... she was too small for me to notice i guess :P

found out that 2 teachers are leaving by the end of this year...

did not get to eat the Ben and Jerry ice cream... :P

farewell...
Thursday. 11.23.06 7:06 am
i went to a farewell party last evening, especially organised for me as i am leaving my role as the OC (overall-in-charge) of SJAB (St John Ambulance Brigade) and taking up a new role as a teacher-in-charge for softball...

i enjoyed myself very much and appreciate the cadets for all their effort...the amusing and touching performances, the banner, the decorations, the birthday cake which they baked on their own to celebrate my birthday in advance, the card they made, the customised cup that they designed and the senior cadets who came back to grace the event...

although i miss the cadets and the wonderful time i had in SJAB, i know i have to leave this cca so that i can give other teachers a chance to develop themselves further in their leadership track... i will have to start afresh on my part... i hope to learn this new sport and hopefully be of some help to the coach in training the team... within such a short time since this new cca started, it is impressive that they are able to come in first in the national competition this year... i guess i have much to learn from them :D

my top priority... being a man!
Thursday. 11.23.06 6:32 am
i have been reading parenting books recently and it has re-adjusted the priorities in my life once again...

i want to do my utmost to be a true husband and a true father... i want to be a true man! i realised that man nowsdays have lost the true meaning of manhood... they think that manhood is about acting cool, about having a sociable night life, about having nice cars and big houses, about dining in fine restaurants, about having a well-built body, about bringing in the money for the family and that's all... they are no longer functioning properly as a husband and a father...they are too obsessed with work and pleasures... they have taken a back seat in shaping their family... they are not connecting with their kids... they are taking their wife for granted... and this has got to change...at least for my case... i have to be more proactive... to make a real difference in their lives... amen

tuesday with papa... part 6
Thursday. 11.23.06 4:09 am
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR NOTES OF CONCERN!
I am pretty fine now... everything is back to normal again :D

though 2 days late, i have decided to continue with the tuesdays series...

what are your views about emotions? (so timely)

Though man tend to be more rational than emotional, I tend to incline myself to the latter. I tend to show my feelings more openly and let my heart rule over my mind. This may be undesirable at times when it comes to decision making but i have decided to enjoy the way i am created and to put it to good use.

How? by feeling for others so that i am sympathise with them... by smiling at them... by laughing with them... by crying with them... what is more straight forward than that in showing that i have feelings for the people around? by putting feeling in the things that i am doing and enjoying it to the max... by putting feelings in the stories i read, the movies i watched, the songs that i hear so that it will help me to remember and appreciate them better... by putting feelings in my speech so that i can touch people's hearts and their mind...

also, barnishing negative feelings is all so important... keeping feelings of resentment, anger, jealousy and bitterness within me is more intoxicating than inhaling smoke from a cigarette or drinking down a barrel of beer... the moment i am filled with such emotions, I will quickly let them go... it's silly to hold on to them... the longer you hold, the more unlikely you are to let them go... never let these feelings weigh you down... it is not worth it! how do i let go? I let God... i cast them all at His feet... how do i do that? i take a deep breath and sigh... as i do, i pray and ask Him to take it all away... and He always do... :D cast all your cares on Him, for He cares for you :D
