It's very interesting how each kid can differ so much from the next. lol.
did the testings on two kids (both k2 this yr) concurrently on the sunday that just passed. haha. they are very different.
the one which amazed me was the second one. lol.
the kid (not sure if i can say out the name here due to privacy issues. haha) watches bleach and naruto. lol. and gundam seed.
i'm like o.o
but not bad, he likes tests. hahaa. so he was very good to complete my test though he was already very tired. sniff sniff.
i spoke to him as a soldier. i explained to him that even naruto goes through tests to become a chuunin and what nots.. his dad helped us a lot. hahaha.
it's really quite different to see a guy doing parenting and a girl doing parenting. really quite different. lol. in the ways they relate to the child.
Can learn quite a lot from them. hahaa. pick up good ways of disciplining and loving the child, and don't learn from the bad ones. haha.

I think, as a human being, it's important to know your body well. Not just emotionally, psychologically, but physically as well. Like the state of your body (for me, it's definitely not at its healthiest :D hahaha).
Think especially for females, since there're hormonal changes through the month, meaning that at certain times of the month we'll be more vulnerable to certain things (e.g. BGR, depression, low self esteem). If we know what our bodies are going through, we can prepare ourselves better, so as not to be alarmed at why we feel in a certain way, or fall into the trap of deception when we're more vulnerable. Knowing the changes will help us manage our energy levels better too (for eg, when i'm pms-ing, I get tired very easily.. so need to schedule in more rest periods.)
I think for me, it also helps me to know when certain things are more of a physical thing, and when certain things are not. so it's good to know your body well to be able to differentiate and tease out subtle things.
hehe.
a bit hard to type in detail here 'cos i know both genders read this blog (though i am fine with typing it here, it may be awkward for some people). so yea, if you wanna discuss more (and you're a female), pm me :)
