& will there always be rainbow, after the rain?
hahaz...ok..actually told ah hui n ah yuan that i will update ytd morning but was too lazy in class to update...then went home ytd but still too lazy...so here i m in school, updating nw...anyway what i wanted to update ytd was that i m quite happy that i did something for my mum the night before. I waited for her at the MRT and actually helped her carry her things. In the past i used to not carry it because i think it is very ugly and auntie and will make me lose face. But now i think differently. It is more about appreciating my mum and doing something back for her. It is still her that gave birth to me and how can i not do things for her as a gratitude to her just because of my face and being afraid of looking stupid and uncool. The thinking is totally wrong...hahaz...i am acutally quite proud i can overcome this and show gratitude to my mum by doing little things in her life for her.Anyway, ytd during lesson, our facilitator actually showed us a short video clip on a Professor's last lecture. It was actually an event for the best professors from eah college to imagine that it was their last lecture that they are going to give before they die and what would they lecture on. So this professor was actually really dying of cancer and is left with afew wks to live but he was not affected by the fact that he is dying. Instead he made full use of it to talk and impact people about life. There are afew phrases that impacted me. He talked about acheiving his childhood dreams and until now things that he acheived and things that he did not acheived but learnt from it.. He said "expierence is what you get when you don't get what you want". He wanted to be a National Football Player but in the end he did not acheive that but instead he was coached by one of the top coach and that was the expierence he got. there are many other phrases but i have no time to type out and explain. anyway if u all are interested, juz go to youtube and search for Dying professor's last lecture. Click on the guy named Randy. That was the lecture. it's 1 hour 16 mins long.Today is also another impacting day for me to realise the world and society today.My facilitator today is covering for my usual facilitator and he gave me another view on the world and about interpreting things. He let me understood the world and the jobs in society now. he shared with me how important certification is although we might not use it in the skills in the future. He told me the way the CEO's of a company or an employer thinks when employing people. He is a very open facilitator but at the same time he has very high expectations for our work. He is very impacting to me but i don't know how to describe it in words. Shall try n put it in words tongt and blog...gotta go do my work nw...till nxt time...tke crez...
