Who is clever, the students or the dean?

Hi.. Who is clever ? The Teacher or student??

One Night 4 College Students were Playing Till Late Night And Didn't
Study For The Test Which Was Scheduled For The Next Day. In the
morning they thought of a plan. They made themselves look as dirty
and weird with grease and dirt. They then went up to the Dean and
said that they had gone out to a wedding last night and on their
return the tyre of their car burst and they had to push the car all
the way back and that they were in no condition to appear for the
test. So the Dean said they can have the re-test after 3 days. They
thanked him and said they will be ready by that time. On the third
day they appeared before the Dean. The Dean said that as this was a
Special Condition Test, All four were required to sit in seperate
classrooms for the test. They all agreed as they had prepared well in
the last 3 days.The Test consisted of 2 questions
with the total of 100 Marks.

Q.1. Your Name.........................( 2 MARKS )
Q.2. Which tyre burst ?...............( 98 MARKS )
a) Front Left
b) Front Right
c) Back Left
d) Back Right .....!!!

SG Secrets

Read of this community in the papers a while ago...

http://community.livejournal.com/sgsecrets

A place where people can just anonymously send their secrets in to. Well it seems most of them are about relationship issues... or friendship issues... others are about self esteem issues. Goes to show that you never know, out of so many people whom you see in the streets everyday, each one of them has their own set of challenges and problems. I have mine too.

But each and every one of us is unique, and it pains me to know that there are those who would destroy that uniqueness by committing suicide... Suicide is never a solution to any problem, it leaves behind a trail of unresolved issues and will also hurt the people closest to you...

The lyrics of these two songs carried me through the dark valleys of my life... and it is my prayer that it will carry someone else through as well. I apologise for those who are not Christian but anyway... see life from a bigger picture and know that there is a higher power up there who is in control, whether we know Him as God or some other name.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives, all fear is gone,
Because I know, I know He holds the future
and life is worth the living just because He lives.

Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace.

Living Full Indeed

Have not had the time to update in a long while as I was busy with various stuff such as:

8th Certified Hypnotherapist Course

This was a 10 day course which Dad recommended to me in the hope that I would learn something useful. The course introduced to us hypnosis as an accepted modality in psychology, which when used in a therapeutic setting can help clients overcome a wide range of problems.

I must say that this was a great experience learning the skill of hypnotherapy and self-hypnosis, and more importantly how it can be used to help others.

More information on hypnosis and hypnotherapy can be found here.

Leadership and Mentoring Skills Course

This was, like one of my friends put it 'back to the days of going to and fro HTA'. It was the one which i took up the challenge to take one of the lectures. And it was indeed a confidence boosting experience, hearing the positive feedback from my fellow officers and even cadets.

The end of the course was an anticlimax really... but the main thing is that we have imparted useful skills to the cadets. Skills which they will not only be able to apply in their main CCA, but in their life in future.

Saturday

My colleagues in The Organisation conducted an interview for the upcoming Sec 3s. It's only now that I appreciate what we are doing in LMSC by imparting the skills to the Sec 3 cadets. No such thing in The Organisation, I really wonder what they are teaching the cadets during Advance NCO course nowadays... Because a lot of them are still stuck in their comfort zone and do not wish to take up Heads of committees, telling us that they are not confident, et cetera.

I hope my juniors will really step out of their comfort zone and not just follow the rest of the crowd. No doubt you always have the right to say 'No' and we respect that. However, our challenge to you is to take up the challenge and take up Heads of committees and other leadership positions. Do not say 'No' just because you will be working with teachers that you 'do not like', because in the working world or even in JC/Poly there will be lots of people who you not necessarily see eye to eye with... but have to work with them nevertheless. This is no doubt a good training ground. Screw up in CCA and at most you get a scolding, screw up in your actual workplace and the consequences can be much more severe...

This is where I really hate the Asian mentality of just going along with the flow and not bucking the trend... See my older post on this issue here...

One of my colleagues is leaving The Organisation after 19 sterling years of service. It is sad to see him go, but happy for him that he has made his stand clear and is not allowing others to push him around. It is sad, however, that 'upstairs' has not gotten the message...

I have got to know that one of my acquaintances from secondary school had passed away a few years ago... may he rest in peace.

I've put on weight these days and found that I had to loosen my belt by one notch... but it's a good thing since I am considered borderline underweight...

I alluded to the book on the subconscious mind given by Dad for my birthday and wow, it indeed blows me away. The subconscious mind is indeed a very powerful tool for change and re affirms the truth of the Bible verse: "So as a man thinks in his heart, so is he."
