for us, Filipinoes, its "for a while" which means... It has been a while since i last managed to write. I cant remember myself being this busy that writing about the day or even contemplating about what happened was a luxury that I cant afford. Its both a good and a bad thing i believe. I have accomplished so many things from the time i last blogd. and not to mention i have acquired much too. and with that i mean not just experience wise but in terms of material stuff.
come to think about it. (yey! i can finally think about things... thank God for break) i would say that i am happy and even admit that i am contented if it doesn't signify that you are no longer bent on exploring more of what's out there. every day that passes i come to a realization that there is more and more that i need to know and need to see. the challenge is with that comes the so many things that i need to do (more of what i want to do.)
...Trip
Singapore is nicer now. my ten charge from the graduating batch of LifeCollege (lrcm.org/lifecollege.html) is having the time of their lives. who wouldn't, I mean who at their age wouldn't be ecstatic if you get to go, as part of the School's program, to different country let alone without the big P's. For me its exciting because i get to see these kids life changed forever. Most of em are quiet but i know deep down they are processing everything that they are seeing. And even if they are not, I know that they are absorbing all this information and when the right time comes, the investment of knowledge will surface which will make them better individuals.
...Brewing
even now, like my students, my head is brewing with ideas. the possibilities are endless in terms of exposure and learning. I intend to create a curriculum for our school that incorporates learning with exposure trips. If we need a better marketing strategy i know this will pull in students. personally i am thrilled with the idea. although i am faced with the burden of managing the school and making sure that we produce world class students. This might be possible. I am excited.
...Popping
the focus for this year is to narrow the focus. i think i am finally getting the hang of things. i have a couple of months more ahead but i am optimistic that the plans will push through. this organization will be big. i need to make sure the base is strong enough. i need to secure events every month to finance the trip on december at the same time enough to get jake in on the team. he will make sure technically we are sound. there is so much that singapore has modeled and it would be so unwise to not follow its lead. why reinvent the will right?
on the title...
i need to find myself time. i need to detach myself from everything that is trying to pull me in. I need to gain perspectives so i don't drown myself with petty stuff. this will allow me to do more. this is the best time and the wisest to say "for a while."
