after lunch @ PP's hawker centre with Jovanna and Rino, i made my way down to Chiltern House (Halifax rd) to observe Shelia's N1 music class.. upon the children's arrival into the music and movement corner at abt 1515.. we (Zach, farhan and i) were sitting in a corner waiting for the class to start.. we were not sure are we supposed to participate in the music session or not.. but soon after, when Shelia started the class, we realised tt we just need to sit there to watch and observe how Shelia does her class.. i was like amazed! i mean.. i know tt Shelia's a superb teacher.. but i didnt know that she's REALLY THAT DAMN GOOD. The ideas.. the way she manage the children and class, the way she IMPROVISED the "Hello" song and changed it totally.. the way she engaged the children.. the way she uses the children's suggestions.. WOW.. if only i'm half as good as her.. oh well.. it comes with experience.. she've been doing this for YEARS..
Throughout the whole 1-hour (2 classes of 1/2-hour music class ech), worth of music class observation, thoughts were running through my mind.. what if, one day, i decide to leave Julia Gabriel, and you know, venture out into this area (rendering my sevices in doing music and movement lessons to other centres like PCF/ other childcare centres etc..). The first thing that came to my mind is that.. if i were to do this, i will do it on a free-lance basis. of cuz, it's not easy... unless if i'm really really good.. but.. my bottom line is that, i will want to render such services to the neighbourhood childcare centres/ PCF centres/ the ophanage. Esp the ophanage children.. many of these children are already less fortunate than alot of us.. and also.. a lot of such ophanages in s'pore are VWOs.. i think.. they will not have the money or budget to send their children for enrichment classes such as JGC.. so i thought.. if i were to render my service to them at a lower price, at least the children will get to enjoy music and movement in a different way and benefit something out of it.. i mean.. i dunnoe.. this idea just pop up in my head while watching Shelia do her class.. although i did mention smth abt wanting to go into a totally different line after i leave JGC in the future, for the sake of earning more money.. but.. i was thinking, the reason why i'm born into this world, is not just to enjoy and lead a luxurious life etc.. it's much more than that.. as a child/daughter/princess of my Heavenly Father, i will want to carry out and accomplish my mission on earth as commanded by Him before i leave this world. No one knows when the 2nd coming of our Lord Jesus Christ is coming.. but i can assure you that it is SOON.
Before i leave in regrets.. i will want to accomplish smth meaningful and purposeful and to speak of the good news to the pre-believers and witness salvation. heh.. suprising huh?! just a 1-hour music class, made me think so much and want to accomplish so much.. well.. it's just a thought.. and when opportunity strikes, i will want to go for it.. oh yes.. i forgot to mention smth.. if time permits and i have the budget, i will want to go to the less developed countries and share my experiences with the teachers there and spread the joy and love of God to them as well. And too.. render my services to them.. what do you think? is tt feasible? :)
