i am no super mario

resigning from dc in june, going for the long holiday in july.. n coming back in aug marks a new chapter in my life.. from aug my focus will b on ethan, kawai and school.. c told v n y tt i went out for a movie today n tution changed to 6pm.. v n y commented tt i was irresponsible.. wat is wrong with tt? i spend everyday with ethan n the rest of the time on lesson planning, preparing for materials n reading up.. c said she understands n bcos v n y r nt aware tt i go for tution EVERYDAY for 2 hrs.. ethan is not easy to teach... he is hyperactive.. but i am able to control him.. it is v tired to teach him but whenever he improves.. i am happy.. thats all i ask for.. seeing him grow n learn everyday.. ewan is waiting for me to teach him music.. evan is waiting for me to teach him music.. c is waiting for me to teach her 2 younger sons..

i haf no life.. everyday i am soo busy.. for eg. carene booked me a mth before for today's trip to jb.. but i am enjoying every minute of my life.. all i ask for is a simple life.. to do the things i enjoy.. money is nt everything.. happiness n health r the most impt to me.. happiness = being with the person i wish to be, able to do wat i really enjoy.. y am i soo busy.. so that each day will b occupied n so i will nt let my mind run wild.. n do silly things..

i am waiting.. waiting for myself to graduate.. 2 mre years.. i am waiting for myself.. i am waiting for u.. sometimes all i need is just a Hi.. a simple "How are you?" it will make the waiting shorter and faster.. or just tell me for the last time to leave this waiting game.. for the past 2 yrs i have shut all doors.. ignoring any door knocks..

bcos i believe wat i saw n felt.. 2 yrs haf past.. i am giving myself 3 mre yrs.. if the end do not turn out to be way i wish.. i will say gdbye to myself.. i am gg to bury myself in work.. c told me today to work with her friend, l.. to open music classes at l's school.. i told her i am interested..

time to say gd bye..

i realised i haf only 3 more shows @ dc before i say gd bye..so i walked into wg's room, sat down n told him the news.. he was playing with his laptop when i was talking to him..

his first sentence, "no time ar?"
i replied no, but no energy.
wg: what if don haf leh?
me: y don haf? they already approved, just waiting for my detail plans
wg: what if cannt leh?
me: y cannt? they will earn more if i start the new classes
wg: what if don haf leh?
me: (i din noe wat to say, but i knew that he was waiting for me to say i will return to dc if "don haf or cannt" so..) ... then i will come back..
wg: orh.. ok confirm then tell me
me: ok when confirm i will inform u.. but june may b my last month.. i am gg us for holiday in july, what you want?
wg: (he said something but i din catch it)
me: give me the name
wg: i will gif u the name n even the pictures n email u
me: ok.. don tell any1 yet abt wat i told u..
wg: ok i noe lar..
me: (i walked out his room..)

i can feel that he felt sad.. i felt sad too..
i told aunty violet.. she said gd for me to pursue my dreams, asked if wg is upset? she ended by saying that she only wish to see that my wish will come true..i told her that will have to wait for 3 yrs later.. i cant do anything now.. it's a different postal code problem..

i told mum abt it, she said mayb wg doesnt want me to leave, just return whenever i want to.. but i don wan to return to dc working, i will return as an audience..

i felt a total change this holiday.. spending all my time on ethan everyday, teaching him, watching him progress.. i tested him today on what was taught for the week, he got everything correct. he can now write a simple sentence by himself.. i almost cried.. his behaviour has changed as well.. i hope that i will help him not only in his work but in his behaviour.. soon i will help ewan n a few years later mayb evan.. it dosent matter if i spend all my time on ethan n preparing for his lessons.. i felt good to watch him grow n change from that playful little boy to now a little boy who can sit still n study for 2 hrs w/o any complain..

jia you ethan! jia you sab!

if everything goes well.. 23 june 2007 will b my last day @ dc.. gd bye dc..

goodbye..

the decision to leave dc may b earlier than expected.. june may b the last month i will appear in dc.. was telling roy today that i no longer feel happy going to dc.. he said i could jus ignore all those nonsense.. but i said there r certain things i cant explain.. i think it's time to move to the next level in my life.. i have spent 2 yrs @ dc.. there were many happy moments n many unhappy times.. gd bye.. i will return to dc as an audience..
