Sometimes the things that happen

when I'm working makes me sad~

Today I handed a letter out to the kids as usual I would say : "remember to pass this piece of paper to your mummy or daddy"

Little boy looked up at me and said " I don't have a daddy only mummy, we've only just moved house"...followed by a smile on his face~

My heart sank....such a young boy yet so brave and well behaved knows very well what is going on in the family.
I told my other teacher (Suzana) what he said.....she confirms with me his parents are divorced.

The dad spoke to her last year when we had our open class to see if his son was ok in class, because they were going through a divorce.
Suz said he was a little off for a few weeks but they didn't know why....till the daddy told them.

And now my little student is so brave and able to accept the problem his parents have, I'm so proud of his little spirit!!

Sometimes we just have to accept things for what they are and move on in life~

This is the most important words that should come out from the mouth of the person you love, the person whom you want to spend the rest of your life with.

Yet, these words seem to be missing in Singapore and has been replaced with "Let's go get a HDB"

WHAT KINDA PROPOSAL IS THAT!!!??

I haven't reached a point in my life where majority of my friends are getting married.
But I have reached a point in my life where I know quite a few people who are getting married.....hence when you ask, "Oh!!! Congrats!! How did he propose?"

The answer is usually a blank look or it would be, "we've gotten approval for our flat."
The classic was mitchy's friend who didn't see a need to propose to his girl as their flat is approved and ROM was just a step to get the flat.

HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW can you let yourself do this!!??

A proposal is VERY important!!
It's more important than that dream wedding!!
More important that the perfect dress, guest list, wedding dinner, wedding ceremony!

It's the start of everything~
For goodness sake!! The dude is asking your hand in marriage and HAS to ask!!!

If you think that "let's get a HDB" is a way of proposing, you need to realise that
Marraige is more than just getting a flat!!!

And if you girls think that "oh don't need to propose lah, together so long already. And we've registered for flat..."
You need to wake up and realise that,

How are you going to marry a person when he has never asked you to marry him!!???

The only person who is going to ever ask you if you wanna marry him would be that person who is in charge of your Solemnisation.

Now that sucks~
