Women are our best friends

I want to have a whole day training in Seattle, and was debating whether I should go. I got my preschooler's after school care all figured out. But with the younger one, I was not sure. Since I did not get spousal support, I cancelled the training thinking since I was not ready to take the step, why go through all the trouble.

This moring when I picked up my preschooler, I got the most wonderful offer from the director of the preschool. I had to say, after all, women are women's best friends.

Men, intentionally do want to kill everything, Women are more nurturous and helpful.

I am a friend of this wonderful website. A lot of information. He recommended two youtubes that I found very resourceful.

I finished watching the first one, and has got some serious points.

1) JUST DO IT!
2) Unique product at a good price(good for you price)
3) Family first(I sense his bitterness in his tone not going to Yahoo and made a couple of millions)

Enjoy!

How to find a government job

Govermentjobs.com is a really good website.

I just applied 5 jobs within 3 hours.

I would like to apply for government jobs because they offer a lot of training and could switch from being technical to management. I want to "move up".

English class today

I went to an English class organized by this lady who also organize this moms group. I thought my English was really good. But I learnt a little too. "Used to " is pronounced "use to". I wasn't aware of "d" followed by "to".

Today we talked about used to, am used to, and taking on the telephone.

(It's so nice to be outside enjoying the sunshine. I thank my husband for that.)

Telephone conversation:

Scenario 1:

Caller: Hello, May I speak to Sarah?

Sarah: This is SHE, (not her). Or

Sarah: Speaking=This is she who is speaking.

----
Scenario 2:

Sarah's H: I am sorry, she is not available now. May I take a message?

Everyone perhaps has experienced having to spelling out the names. The teacher handed out a list of spelling alphebets. Hers is different than mine. I am sharing mine here with you.

I went to the World Language Training Saturday

It was a great training. Two very experienced Children librarian gave us a lot of demonstrations and tips on how to present a succesfful story.

I am very grateful for the training. To entertain, to express, and to impress. I cant wait to hone my skills with other people's kids. I, however, noticed dramatic change in the style I tell bedtime stories to my kids too.

I also signed up for a How to Recycle training. I will share with you girls about that once I complete the 2 Saturdays event in May.

Triple your reading speed?

By one glance per line? That is extremely hard. I need to take three snapshot of a line to understand it. It's called "wasted eye movement".

I am reading this book on speeding reading while i should be reading another important book, in the wish to 磨刀不误砍柴功。
