Feeling Lost..

Hi, it' s my second post so far. I have been looking high and low at the www.blogskins.com in search of a skin for a makeover for my blog. However, being fickle-minded on top of being choosy, I have yet to find one that I fall in love with at first sight. I guess my husband is lucky that I fell in love with him, though it's definitely not at sight! I must admit I am very fortunate too to have him as my husband. I love you, Chiew!

Please bear with me while I continue my hunt for a skin that can touch me in some way. This is entitled Feeling Lost because I feel very inadequate and tiny out there online trying to find ways to beautify my blog. The vast amount of information is overwhelming! Yet somehow, I seem to have difficulty in finding what I want. Being a new mother to a boy who is currently 6 month old, I can't help but think how we can bring him up in an era where he can easily access to all kinds of information. Would inculcating the right values help to him to survive all kinds of influences? Well, I decided not to think too much but to take a step at a time and enjoy spending time with him meaningfully.

As a happy-go-lucky person, I appreciate and am satistisfied with what I have. It was so, and still is in some ways or rather most ways, till I had a casual conversation with my dear sister on a cab.

She is a teacher and we were talking about her students; how IT savvy they were, how they spent time online daily despite impending examinations. All these prompted me to feel inadequate and to some extent, out-dated. Though blogging has been an in-thing for ages, I have not read one and needless to say, create one.

Being in the education field myself, after hearing all the talk about life-long learning, I decided I need to do something to change the status-quo and learn something new, or face the high risk of being an passe. This is what leads to the birth of this blog. Pardon me if it may come across as a bit kiddish. I am in the process of exploring and learning and will greatly appreciate any advice if any.
