you know i never realised it then but i now know how much a part of me cedar is and how much i grew over the past 4 yrs. yesterday it was cedar's debate semis. It is onli the 2nd tym we have made it to the semis continuing the tradition from last year, as well the team is pretty much the same as last years. i have to say that i was amazingly proud of them for the growth and progress they have made and the potential they have to go to even greater heights. its amazing really. Its a real pity they lost. though i still firmly belive that if we perhaps had different more reliable judging the case might not be so. Alas, its a difference of opinion and like i told them when they were all sad and downtrotten, in life its nice to win and gain as many titles and accolades as possibles, but these aint the end all and be all of one's success. you dont need a title or medal to measure your self worth or how good you are. and i think after the coffee bean treat by fiona, all was well again and they soon realised how far they have come! =) im still so very proud of them tho i did very little of direct coaching with them but since last yr from the very 1st debate i saw them in till yesterday i muz say i was nodding and "thumbs-uping" like a maniac half the time during their speech.=) and i do hope mrs ng who has always been such a caring motherly teacher pulls through her problems and well god bless her!..=)
