遇見十歲的自己

Today is a BIG day for me. I have my new hair style done and have taught another English class in the kids' language school. This job gives me opportunity to observe kids aged from 6 to 10 without really having a kid. And it is always fun to watch them without worrying how to take care of them ^Q^.

It really strikes me to learn how simple kids are and how easy it is for them to become happy or sad. I am not really used to punish kids or yell at them, but I have to learn some skills so that I can be "safe and sound" in the classroom. Another interesting part of this job is that I can get to talk to the kids in English the whole time, and let them understand what I am saying and having them responses to me.

There is a 10 year old inside of me, still. I can feel it all the time, especially when I am dealing with authority figures. The needy fragile 10-year-old girl just comes out and crying for love. I think it is kind of nice that I don't have any kid yet, because then I can take care of my own needs instead. And when I am more ready, I can have a loving relationship with my kid. The reason I do not want to get married and have a child now is becuase I want to communicate with the 10 year old girl inside of me first, and then I think I will be more prepared to talk to my 10-years-old.
