The kids
Abang is now 2 months old!! So big already arh boy..heeehee..
Assalamualaikum...
Finally, a rest day today. Shoppin with my 2nd sis to Geylang cancel today. Alhamdulillah . (=
I was freaking tired yesterday. Woke up for sahur.Sleep. Woke at 7.30. Get ready for tutoring @ Hearthlink. Guess how may students turned up in total? 4 only leh!!! Because most of them just finished their exams so they NEED a rest.
After all of their exams are over, we planned to go to the Science Center!! Wee..~ I get excited over this instead of the students. Haha. And we will have a 2nd outing to Snow City to Ski!! Muah, I love Hearthlink!
Being a volunteer, I had many-many free opportunities. Sentosa, Snow City, Science Center, bowling, workshops...etc..etc and not forgetting FOOD...uuuuuu. No need to cash-out leh.. I regret of turning-down free admission to play golf because I was working. Argh! I hope there will be another round!
But of course lah, my intention of helpin out nt to get this free opportunities. I just love it lah.. you know, childrens.. a la hai. Even though they stressed me up sometimes, still I love them many-many! Like yesterday, after tutoring at Hearthlink, I travelled all the way to Bedok, Chai Chee to tutor those primary 4 kids.
They did not get the muliplication right and I felt like crying man. Wasn't actually crying lah.. Sometimes when the students don't get it right. I did not blame them at all. I will sit down and think, and asked myself 'what went wrong? where did i go wrong?"
And I'll try every method that I can think on to help them improve on their learning. It's sad to see some of them are not catching up fast enough. When I asked them did anyone teach them at home. The answer are always no and never. Thus, I think parents should not blame their child for not doing well academically. They should reflect on theirselves before others.
Some of us may hate our parents. But when u see children come with broken family, single-parent or w/o any of their parents. I bet you will feel so lucky that you still have your parents raising you up. That time, I was volunteering for kids who came from a lower-income family. We gave them food during breaks. And this little kid asked me, "Kak, boleh simpan tak? Nak bawak balik kasi akak kat umah. Kat umah tak de makanan..."
We throw food like nothing but for these kids, they think of others before they eat.
It's just something I learnt and gained throughout my experinces. Itulah takdirNya, itulah kasih sayangNya dan itulah rahmatNya meskipun tidak nampak pada zahir, namun boleh dirasa dengan hati. (=
Wassalam,
Rohani
