Lesson learnt

Today, we went to Sentosa - Cafe Del Mar to have lunch (post Xmas cum Boxing day celebrations). What was suppose to be an enjoyable and relazing lunch did not turn out well for me. I've tonnes of work to do - web and data requests. Knowing that we will be having a long lunch today, I've cleansed all the data requests, except for one yesterday. But the rest of the work are enough to prevent me from relaxing.

After lunch, I went back to office to check on some work issues before re-joining the team for coffee at Vivo. It was there that I learn a few lessons, of which this is the most important and had set me thinking all day long - decide now who and where you want to be in 3 yrs time.

Since young, I have always wanted to be a teacher, in particular a Mathematics teacher in secondary school. Sad to say, my grades never make it - English, my killer subject - I hate English. In order to fulfill this dream, I had previously taken a language proficiency from NIE, and cleared it. Still I'm still a miles away from my dream. Back then, teaching is a very popular job due to the financial crisis. I've always been near to my dream, I once worked in a before and after school care center for primary school kids, gave tuition during my uni days and after work - just so that I can fulfill my passion for teaching. But now, I have to give up tuition due to work commitment - no choice.

Everytime, when I feel down with work, this thought will always flash across my mind - to teach. Should I or should I not.
