SABOED!

ehhhhhhh, XY, you could have reminded us! It totally slipped my mind!
Ok, no worries, every dog has its day - MY RESPONSIBILITY and I will bear it!!!

Anyways, I realised that last week was like a mad rush - I kept feeling rushed from place to place, from an activity to another, everything overlapping and my anxiety meter is bursting. Really need to hone my planning - seems like putting down an item in the calendar is just a small step to seamless life. The key is really to keep some buffer and really focusing on the task at hand. Sometimes, just too much distractions and interruptions. Also need to tweak the timing expected to complete certain task.

Loads to learn!

Nov09 looks like a great time to start this honing exercise! Just had an intense session with the students - I really want to see them through this period, growing and getting what they want. I feel the anxiety and expectancy in them, as if I am taking the exams. I can see some blooming, and some just letting go. The latter is heart wrenching. Probably it's like the howling dog story - it's just not painful enough for a change. Still, I do hope that seeds had been planted in their minds that when they are open to growth, the seedling within them will blossom.

Goodbye Oct09, hello Nov09!
