~May Your Light Shine :D~

Its been 3 months... gomen! Time flies when your (a) busy (b) holidaying (c) slacking (d) all of the above. Lets do a short recap of what has happened (or lack of) since the last time I blogged:

November - Exams - the last of them! Well, in my uni life that is... I won't miss them (i think) but i do prefer them to assignments

December - Convention + AGM + brother's convocation + family holiday in Melbourne/ Tasmania (for pictures, please see my facebook profile) Thank God for preserving my family throughout the trip and for the hospitality we received (special thanks to Melvin, Zee, Annette & family)

January - mid Feb - placement with Asian Women's Welfare Association (AWWA) TEACH ME services. TEACH ME = Therapy and Educational Assistance for CHildren in Mainstream Education.

I shan't bore everyone with the details, but all I can say is thank God for His faithfulness and patient guidance. I was struggling during placement and I must admit, that prior to this, my confidence was misplaced. After 2 smooth going placements, I thought too highly of myself. But thank God that He never lets me go and allow me to think that way for too long and I was brought back to earth with the placement that just passed. Although I am pretty sure that my coursemates had it much worse in terms of workload, I was having difficulty with the placement and through it, I saw my inadequacy. By God's grace, I managed to clear the placement, but I am also fully aware that I have lots to improve on, which I have the next few months to work on whilst doing my data collection.

Yes, I will be in Singapore for the next few months, most likely till July. So to everyone who is dying to meet up with me here, contact me! Haha... so thick skinned right =P Anyways, as the title says, this is just a prelude, so I shan't write an essay this time. But look out for the next post!
