Farewell Lunch..
Everyday has been a learning experience in my short working life. My job encompasses mainly around management. Managing large groups of children, managing one’s time well, managing one’s relationship with one’s colleagues and superiors and balancing one’s private life and working life. I’ve also learnt not to be too idealistic. It would just make one frustrated about not being able to meet that high expectation set by oneself.
Furthermore, I’ve outgrown the fear of getting lost (literally and physically). Panicking would get one nowhere. Instead of worrying, why not find a solution to get out instead of wasting precious time and brain cells on fearing for the worst? If seeking for help is out of the question, trusting one’s instincts would be a good alternative.
Moreover, I’ve been initiating things which I would not have done previously. I’m not sure what gave me the courage but I’m learnt to put things into perspective. The worst scenario would be getting shamed or embarrassed. On the other hand, positive or totally unexpected developments may arise. So why not think on the brighter side rather than being so pessimistic?
In addition, I’ve learnt to stick to my own principles and do what is right even though it may cause inconveniences to others. I do not think it is my problem should these people get into trouble since they did not perform their tasks properly in the first place.

I did a personality quiz (http://quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx) while I was toying away with time. The accuracy rate for me was approximately 90%. Here are the results:
Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.
Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.
The seriousness of your love:
You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?
Your views on education:
Education is less important than the real world out there, away from the classroom. Deep inside you want to start working, earning money and living on your own.
The right job for you:
You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.
How do you view success:
You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.
What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.
Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

Just came back from a farewell lunch for my mentor at Parkway Parade. I had the priviledge of fetching both the principal and a senior teacher since no one was willing to take up the responsibility, or rather, no one volunteered. It was not such a daunting task after all. Just that their lives were in my hands. haha. Somehow, I managed to park well despite my car being at some awkward angle. I think I perform much better under pressure. Anyway, I was just glad that I gave them a smooth ride and that I didn't embarrass myself with my parking. Oh, by the way, lunch was good, considering how much we paid!
