Moving on with life...

Just accepted a new tutoring student, but the kid has not picked up much so far. I have thought long and hard about how to improve the kid's interests in learning, but it seems to be really beyond my control. I will have to take it one day at a time. Maybe it is only a matter of time that we go toward separate ways. Whatever blocks the kids from getting his interests up may not disappear for a while, and I might have to bear with that for a bit longer.

From the Tarot readings, I sensed an authority figure that I thought would be his father, but it appeared to be a retired high school principal who would spend some time helping the kid every Monday. I am hoping he can give the kid some structure and disciplines in life. However from cards in my drawing I am not out of the picture yet, although I hope I can gracefully exit the whole situation altogether.

It happens that I will have enough tutoring work till the first half of 2010, and then I might have to look for some new work to support myself. I am setting the time frame to be after the summer, so I can visit my sister in the states and share some quality time with her and the kids. I do not know what will come and I might have to give faith to the unknown and believe something would eventually come my way when I get back in Taiwan. Maybe it would also be wise to take a one day at a time approach for this.

I have sensed the energy to help my life moving forward for a while, but I still could not figure out what it is. I might have to sit and wait out for this one. Already bought a new laptop and for now a bit short of cash for the big screen 32" full HD LCD TV I long for. It would look so nice in my bedroom, but how am I going to find a place to put the 22" LCD TV it would replace? Perhaps it is time to turn down the big screen envy and stay practical and environmental for now. After all, I probably just want the big screen TV for watching DVD's. It would take out the whole desk to actually fit it in my room...
