China New Year in USA at Florida School for the Deaf and Blind







During Feb 2004, The teacher at high school asked me to do lecture about China New Year. I told them, okay, but I had to ask my boss, Mary Taylor for permit to do my lecture to your kids at around 11am to 1pm. I came in the classroom at around 1045am. I was prepare to do leture and show the web site from Singapore for CNY.(I am trying to remember to explain you what happen that event.)
I was alittle nervous to lecture, My mind must to be more funny, more face expressional, and explaining them in good details. I was explaining them about Chinese: culture, food, myths,food, and people. When I was finish up the leture, many kids asked me a lot of question about Chinese people. The two teachers at high school asked me to invite the chinese food. I knew the chinese foods were faking and not really chinese food in St.Augustine, Fl USA. so I just ate it! ha some of kids kept on asking me question about travel, so I explained them about travel and Chinese people. At around 1pm, I was talking to two teacher about Chinese. then I arrived to classroom alittle late. In the few mins later, my bitch temp teacher(MJ) was dirty looking at me. I knew that She complained to my boss, Mary Taylor and wont talk to me. I dont pay attention to her. She is really younger and dont understand about deaf kids at all. Next day, My boss asked me to discuss with her around afternoon. I said, ok! At the afternoon, my boss, Mary Taylor and I dicussed about the problem, I told her that I will be alittle late, " why did you tell her that I will be late?" My boss was really furious with me due to her bad mood, and wanted me to tell sorry to her. I did not tell her to sorry. bcs I knew I did not make a mistake. I did not getting into the agurment with her bcs I just mellow and be cool., but She kept to give me a hint that she wanted me to tell her sorry! Finally, i said, I am sorry. she said, Finally, I just keep it cool! so we dicussed other topic the kids. my mind says, oh, man! my bitch temp teacher made a frame on me! (she was jelous of me)In few months later, my boss, taylor started to noticed that MJ dont know how to handle the emotions kids.... why??? one girl(12 years old) got blow up and push on MJ. Bcs MJ liked to pick on her and kept on bother on her. I told her leave her alone and I grabbed MJ's arm out of her sight. The 12 years old girl started to calm down and started to discuss with me. MJ started to jelous me bcs I know how to handle with emotion kids and girl too. When the 12 years old girl walked with me and not talk to MJ at all. That s why I am saying MJ dont know nothing about deaf kids.

Miscellanous

(this is American surfer student who lives in area of Port Orange, Fl and I used to live out of Daytona beach when I was really younger. I think the American Surfer student dont really understand the real world look like. He needs to explore to learn their culture and education for better life;Therefore, he would able to study the histories at other countries like Indonesia, Japan, and South America, where the surfers would able to knowledge the world look like. I am really glad that I am finish up school at High school, Community College, and University. I would say, I trulty am apprection that Nancy Locker helped me a lot at Community College for study the english and Social Science and Now, I know a lot of histories myself in real world. thanks Nancy Locker!!!!)

I am a high school algebra teacher in Port Orange, Fl. I am right outside Daytona Beach and New Smyrna Beach. I have a young man in class who has told me that he does NOT need to learn in school because he has a surfing sponsor and will be making more money than all of us combined. I hoped you might shed some light on this. I appreciate your help.
asked by Paula Rager, Spruce Creek High School



Kelly Slater replies "sincerely and lightheartedly":


Please let your student know that life is much longer than he is thinking about and that you never know what opportunity will come to you. I have friends who have set their sites on surfing and then become paralyzed. I have friends who have succeeded beyond their dreams, too, but usually that doesn't happen to someone who is blind to the rest of life.

It would be arrogant and silly of me to think that surfing is the only thing even for my life that is going to bring me freedom and prosperity. There are many other areas that you can learn a lot of exciting things from and transition them into your life. School is not a difficult thing to finish. It is much more difficult sometimes to just admit we are being arrogant and we have a lot to learn. That is also the way to garnering real respect from others and until we realize that we can receive a lot of wake up calls.

I hope you are able to see that surfing may just be something that is fun and good for now but might not be permanently. After all, when you're done with that you'll have to know what to do with your money and the rest of your life.

Life skills are more important than surfing skills any day of the week cause when you're down, people will remember how you acted when you were on top. I don't know exactly the situation here but if you really want to force the issue, we can have a surf-off. If you beat me, I'll keep my mouth shut and let you figure it out.... :) Have fun. See ya.

To Paulina, thanks for helping our office run smoothly.

To Tian Tian, you never made the same mistake twice. That is commitment to quality!

And last of all, to the Editorial team. Guys, it’s been a fun ride and I’m so happy to have worked, laughed and cried with you. An editor couldn’t ask for better writers and colleagues.

Thank you everyone once again!

My wife was busy with our baby at nursey school where the babies stay with their moms at one room. I went to church with my hearing friends, I was surpised to see Ken Lai, Saul and one deaf friend came to see our church . I watched the beauiful performance about relate to Jesus's born for an hours and 30 mins lecture about the save the jesus. I have had diffutcult time to live in Singapore due to different culture and personally problem. I am trying to do is improvement my own self confidence and try to reduced angry. I wanted to improvment to do training at martial arts schoool, which it helps me to improvement myself and started to training on first week of November at www.kuenculture.com, and every time, I finished training, next day, i work at my company, i turn to be happy. Bcs of reduce the stressful. If i dont training at martial arts school very often, I will turn to grumpy person. I think, i should be stick to training at Martial arts school.

back to this topic, so the pastor named Rev.Kong Hee asked someone to come to front on his stage to improvement based on my faith. The interpreter, Jac Chan(not superstar jackie chan) knew that I have a personal problem, so she suggest me to go to meet Rev. Kong Hee. I said, ok! so I came to his stage. I pray for myself for few mins. then Rev Kong Hee was doing hand shake to four people and he knew that i am deaf due to saw an interview with me. He was doing hand shake to me. I said, " thank you" he uses sign language " HI, I am happy with you and happy lord with you!" his sign langauge was not bad, i am pretty surpised he knows sign language . he has one older brother and oldest sister who are deaf. I just guess that Rev Kong dont know a lot of sign langauge, he proves me wrong. I am really glad that Rev Kong knows Sign Language. KEEP IT UP SIGN LANGUAGE FOR REV KONG HEE!

Let's me say about Graphic Design in Florida. I had been interview for graphic design about 5 times from Jan 2000 to May 2000. My mind said " do my BFA degree worth to me to get graphic design job?" or due to my deafness? I knew that mostly Floridian people dont really aware about ADA law due to no one gives a leture about ADA law in Florida, so I decided to apply at FSDB as a resident aide or Teacher aide. In few days later, I got a e mail from Karla Knight, who was superivor at Elementary School at FSDB , so I got a job for Temp job and one year later, I got perm job for four years. Later on, I quitted my job on Feb 1st.
