My adorable student walks in cafe after singing and dancing practice around 12.15pm

Student : Hi Teacher!
Me : Hello, how are you?
Student : Fine, teacher. Teacher, you now only having your lunch? I mean... breakfast??
Me : This is my lunch.
Students : *eyes opened wide staring at my cookie*. Teacher! You eat this only?!

She's so cute.

Conversations III

Remember the boy that said that a girl likes him but he does not like her back?

D : Teacher I got gf already
Me : *eyes opened wide* is it her?

*thinks he's confuse what 'having a gf' meant*

Me : But I thought you said you don't like her?
D : Actually I got go back and think. What teacher said is true la... she's quite pretty

GOD

He is God.

Don't limit what He can do. He hears your cries even if you hide it inside. He sees your pain, your thoughts, everything you are going through. He knows, He feels, and He provides the help you need.

I received a great news just now. God is faithful. We are forgetful and sometimes we need to be reminded.

My mum taught me that in whatever circumstances, keep the faith and claim your blessings from God. Believe that you will receive. I'm thankful for my parents =)

Drama

It's like drama at work everyday. Every night when I'm back from work I will have many funny/cute/dramatic story to tell my dear ms wee while she's half awake heh.

I sat down with a group of my students and asked them what do they want to be when they grow up. One of them answered, "Pastor". I'm impressed! He wants to follow after his father's footsteps =) He was so happy when I told him I'm a Christian too. Future evangelist. 10 years old.

Another student exclaimed, "I want to be a superstar!". Cute. He specifically wanted to be in Bollywood.

By giving these children attention through proper education and other necessities, we are giving them hope. One step closer to realize their dreams.
