FISH FISH FISH

I made the funniest joke of the year at my work place on Thursday.  Haha... When the session was on, I received a call from one of my colleagues' dad.  I remember her dad was from China but he has been staying in Malaysia for many years.  So this uncle called to look for her daughter.  He spoke in Cantonese and he said my colleague's name in Cantonese which we had never ever called each other's name in Cantonese since the first day we worked together.  By the way, both my colleagues' names are quite the same when pronounced in Cantonese.  So I mistaken.  

I was trembling when I was talking to the uncle.  You know why?  I mistaken the names so I thought this uncle was the other colleague's dad whom had already passed on for 9 years.  I was puzzled so I confirmed again but he still said the same name.  I was like... HUH? A dead person called.  I was still steady.  I told him that my colleague was not not free to answer so I said I'll ask her to call him back.  Deep in my heart I was thinking how can my colleague calls her long dead dad?  Hehe... 

After putting down the phone I talked to the other colleague (the right one).  I reconfirmed if the other colleague's dad has passed on.  I also reconfirmed the name that the uncle mentioned which was her name.  She was blur also.  We both blur then sat back down on the chairs and continue the session.  The other colleague was teaching.  I sat down and I thought for a while.  I recited the name that the uncle told then I stood up abruptly and I said that name again and I said,"Aren't you XXX?"  Then only she realised and she finally "woke up"!  Haha... She wasn't feeling well that day that's why she was so blur.  Haha...

This really scared me and I wonder what was happening to me.  Why would I thought of those spirit thing?!!  They laughed at me till I gotta hide like the ostrich.  So memalukan.  Haha...  I also felt stupid for this fishy mistake :P

AWESOME XD

Something that cheered me today.  At least one thing that made me chuckled for the day :)

Today I was the Linked Activity teacher.  So I have to handle singing session also.  Today I did it a little differently.  I asked the children to sing one by one.  While their friend is singing in front the others be spectators.  So they came out one by one to sing.  Well, not all of them could sing clearly or in the right tune.  But I appreciated their bravery and their enthusiasm.  Imagine if I ask my Sunday School kids to sing one by one, they sure will complain a lot.  Hmm... 

There was thins child named LXT, she is an Autistic and she has Oral Apraxia, meaning she can hardly imitate word as her oral motor is weak.  But out of our amazement, she sang clearly today.  I would say she was the second clearest and the most in tune one!  All the teachers smiled.  We were all SO happy to see such scene.  This was so unexpected!

Usually she will just follow the actions of the songs during singing session.  She had not really sung.  One of the possibilities that I could think of is, she felt funny as today they were not singing as a group.  Usually our singing session for this group is very noisy and very "high".  Today was a bit quiet, I guess... she wasn't used to it.  So she might have thought," Eh, how come no one sings today? Okay... nobody sings, so I sing... louder!"  When I was driving, I flashed back how she sang, I chuckled.  XD

Her mother had been very sad over her condition.  Her mother did think of killing her before she accepted her child.  To me, she is a pretty gal, a gal whom I love when I first saw her.  I like the way she looks at things, I like the way she communicates with her eyes and I still remember the first time she indicated to me that she needed to change her clothes by pointing to her dress and the room.  I was so glad!  

Her mum had been discouraged by a lot of things, even the slow progress of her child.  Some times she was so depressed that she called me at night for reassurance.  I pity her.  Well, well, today, finally there was something touched her heart, something she longed for all these years.  Yeah, I told her that she sang SO clearly when I saw her just now, she was so happy to know that, she finally got positive comments without her approaching the teachers herself.  I'm joyous too.  I can't suppress but to praise Him for He is AWESOME, indeed!!!
