Road to PSLE: Intelligence or Courage?
Starting this new school year, we have "Philosophy" on our timetable; a little something I included to make sure that I don't neglect to nurture the girls' creative and critical thinking. It's really interesting to listen to their views on various issues and offers an insight into their values and mindset.
This afternoon, I posed the question of Intelligence or Courage to the girls - which would they choose to have?
Tai Pi: "I choose courage because if say I had to save someone from a dragon, I need courage for that. If I didn't know how to do it, I could learn what to do from someone else."
Sai Pi: "I choose intelligence because if I was smart I can come up with a plan and I will look for someone who is brave to do it."
Hmm good thinking!
A few days ago, we were watching the 9pm Chinese serial which had one of the male leads getting shot while trying to save a friend who had gotten herself into trouble despite having been earlier warned by her well-meaning friends. KK asked the girls if the male lead should have gone to his friend's aid now that they could see that he would be shot. The girls' immediate answer was a resounding "Yes" and Pumpkin explained that "we should care for others." Now isn't that sweet?

my mail and the subject was I LOVE YOU
Dearest,
I'm delighted and honourd writing this letter to you,and I hope and pray that you be the honest man that will bring meaning into my life, Though currently I am seeking asylum in a refugees camp in place called Ouagadougou the capital of Republic of Burkina Faso in West Africa. My name is Miss.Jessica Kipkalya Kones, 22yrs old female and I held from Kenya.
My father was the former Kenyan road Minister. He and Assistant Minister of Home Affairs Lorna Laboso had been on board the Cessna 210, which was headed to Kericho and crashed in a remote area called Kajong'a, in western Kenya. The plane crashed on the Tuesday 10th, June,2008. You can read more about the crash through the below
site:http://edition...cnn..com/2008/WORLD/africa/06/10/kenya.crash/index.html After the burial of my father, my stepmother Mrs,Biatrez and uncle conspired and sold my father's properties to an italian Expertrate which the shared the money among themselves and live nothing for me.One faithful morning, I opened my father's briefcase and found out the documents which he have deposited huge amount of money in one bank in Burkina Faso with my name as the next of kin.
I travelled to Burkina Faso to withdraw the money for a better life so that I can take care of myself and start a new life, on my arrival, the Bank Director whom I met in person told me that my father's instuction to the bank is that the money would only be release to me when I am married or present a trustee who will help me and invest the money overseas. I am in search of an honest and reliable person who will help me and stand as my trustee so that I will present him to the Bank for transfer of the money to his bank account overseas.
I have chosen to contact you after my prayers and I believe that you will not betray my trust. But rather take me as your own sister. Though you may wonder why I am so soon revealing myself to you without knowing you, well I will say that my mind convinced me that you may be the true person to help me. Moreso, I will like to disclose much to you if you can help me to relocate to your country because my stepmother have threaten to assinate me. The amount is( $7.2 USD )Million United State Dollars, and I have confirmed from the bank in Burkina Faso on my arrival, You will also help me to place the money in a more profitable business venture in your Country. However, you will help by recommending a nice University in your country so that I can complete my studies.
It is my intention to compensate you with 30% of the total money for your services and the balance shall be my capital in your establishment. As soon as I receive your positive response showing your interest I will put things into action immediately. In the light of the above, I shall appreciate an urgent message indicating your ability and willingness to handle this transaction sincerely. Awaiting your urgent and positive response. Please do keep this only to your self.

My very first post on life of a student warroiRR
On first day i want to share a poem with all of you
( Who are you )
( Who are you )
کون ہو تم
میرے انتظار کی راحت ہو تم
میرے دل کی چاہت ہو تم
تم ہو تو یہ دنیا ہو
میں کیسے کہوں میرے لے کیا ہو تم
چلو میں باتوں کیا ہو
چوہ کر جو گزر جاے وہ ہوا ہو تم
میں نی جو مانگی وہ دوا ہو تم
کرے جو روشن وہ دیا ہو تم
فضا میں مہکتی اک شام ہو تم
پیار میں چھلکتا ہوا جام ہو تم
میری زندگی کا دوسسرا نام ہو تم
پھر
کیسے نہ کہوں میری جان ہو تم
confused
i will translate it later for all of you
