Two weeks into the new year already... Most of my time spent in work and class.
Work has been filled with chubby cheeks, crying, diapers and cuteness. I'm in the N1 class in the morning, helping the teachers out with the children who are brand new and suffering from separation anxiety. The children are all very cute of course. There's a indian-chinese boy with shoulder length curly hair and two little chinese girls with short hair and straight-cut fringe, they are small and chubby. These three kids would be the ones I think are the cutest. My N2 afternoon class only has 5 children but they are a handful as they are all new to the school. They cried for the first 2 days but were ok after that. There's a korean boy who speaks English in a adorable accent. His little brother in N1 is super cute... cheeks so fat and chubby!
Ok, enough gushing about the children. Class has been going on three times a week since the year began. Busy doing group and individual assignments. Have a group presentation this tuesday. Haven't contributed much to the assignment because wasn't proactive enough in a very proactive group. Was a bit worried about my lecturer finding out about my lack of contribution but i know God will take care of that. No point worrying. I'll just read up on what was covered in class and the group assignment so I'll be ready for the Q&A session after the presentation. Julz's you do the same too! We will do well in this group project because Jesus is with us!
Doing an assignment in this module that requires me to write an argumentative essay. The topic I chose was divorce and maturity. The thesis statement: Couples who get married at a younger age gave a higher chance of getting a divorce. Younger age being 16-24 years old. This led me to think about my beliefs of dating and marriage, personally I believe that one should date only when they are ready for marriage. Why do I believe this? Because of the messages I've heard and a book that I read. Even though this belief has its roots in christianity it actually is very practical.
When people date before they are ready for marriage, they are often still young and not mature enough, therefore relationships involve intimacy more than commitment. For example, if a couple starts dating when they are 16 and they will only be ready for marriage when they are 25, what are they going to do for the next 9 years? They'll engage in intimate acts eventually leading to pre-marital sex (which post a whole host of problems itself). Then they won't be able to take the strain of the relationship because of all the problems and break up.
Therefore when one is ready for marriage maybe in their early or mid twenties (depending on the individual) then they should get involved in a commited relationship that involves two mature individuals. peili hugged at 10:08 PM
