「有意義」、やっとわかったなあ

for the first time in my life, i'm finding local cip meaningful.

tutoring kids at this clementi place. (zixin's SL)
due to their background, they're lagging in their studies.

it helps that i've gone through student care, and bangalore, and my three atrocious cousins (i teach them how to do their homework from time to time.) and that the kid today was nice. (she reminded me of the bright kid in my class in bangalore.)

bangalore was meaningful, but it was too short and too far away. (proves that OCIP isn't effective P:)
for once it really feels like i have the ability to help them, even though it's not much.
i didn't expect such a drastic change in mindset. i've always thought that cip was crap and portfolio and superficial and all. but it happened, somehow. and on the long long bus ride home, i thought about it, and decided that i'm just going to do this.


and something about the place just reminds me of student care again. the rowdiness and messiness.
