19th January 2006- D Day

It was the 14th of January a hot Sat afternoon where Poy had booked the badminton courts at Hougang Sports Complex...met Alan..Poy's good fren there for a game of badminton...wow those who were there were really impressed with his smashes...after what seemed like a while later when we really sweat it out...my mum called..

Mama: "Hey, guess what...the mail came in and it states "ON GOVERNMENT SERVICE" I
took the liberty to open the mail for you!!"

Rac: ...... ....... .......

Mama: " YOU GOT THE PERMANENT POSITION as a teacher!!! You would start teaching
officially on the 20th March 2006! and your salary scale is $XXXX!! so high!!"

Rac: (*thinking to herself..O man is that the only thing that you are interested in?*) *cue:
a jumping Rachie Rach around the badminton court with lots of shrieks...*

Just on CG that week, our discussion group leader Mr D had asked us to think of just one minute, with our eyes closed and prayerfully on what we foresee our future would be according to God's will...

I saw two visions of me: one would be where i would be successful in the corporate world, my world would be surrounded by many people from all over the world...macham successful corporate business woman...

Then the next vision i see myself..surrounded by kids and my hair turning white...i do believe its what GOD is trying to tell me...that i actually have two paths...and the path that i have chosen would be is to be with kids and that vision actually show myself enjoying the presence of kids....i was still playing with them..i know then God wants me to impact the life of kids ...through teaching....true enough the letter came that Saturday after only 2 days after CG....

Well the next part of my vision what i saw...got the guys teasing me like crazy...i was the only gal in discussion group that week cos MZ could not make it mah....:P I actually saw my son!!! I saw my this cute son again from all those years ago that little dream i had...this boy with big eyes...look like me a bit....this time round with more details...he ran to me.." Ma ma, mama..." carrying a small violin then he was playing on stage!! I was right there backstage cheering him on ...

silly Poy digged at me..."so the boy must look like the father..." i immediately shot back "well, that's subjective!!!" it seems that a few of us on the table that day had actually shared about the future and getting married and all...well.....

19th Jan came...i went to sign the contract to confirm that i accept the offer..really hope that this is the path for me ...i actually feel a sense of excitement...:)

Kids...to be surrounded by them till i grow old...Kim mentioned that i am a big kid myself...wahahh could not agree more....

show you all some pics from my mum's school which i have been teaching the first part of last year...:)
