Of all things...

Today I had to chase a youth out of the centre because he was being disrepectful. First time in my life, I had to do something so harsh. I feel kind of bad as I feel youths should be able to understand the limit that they have but some of them just don't and they try to climb over your head.

Never, have I ever had to do that. I did scold one of the boys until he was afraid to come but he deserved it. LOL... Over here at this place, we are trying to cultivate accepting and respecting each other despite our differences. If the children know where we can't from, why can't this youth?

Reflecting back, I was like that once. Slamming doors, defying rules and even talking back. I have an experience of a lifetime dealing with kids and youths even before marriage. Sigh :( Not saying that I will be a good parent in future, it's all going to be different next time. Seasons change, children change, traditions are tested. It's hard to go with the flow and remove the old mindset that we have. The world is changing as I am typing this.

Anyway, on a happier note. I'm so glad to have won the $10 Ohvola credit. Thanks to XL for telling me and I managed to get the Twirl & Swirl Skirt in Burnt Orange and Blue :) Thank you Ohvola too! 

I wore the orange one out today and reviewed on Twitter. Really love the flow of the skirt but I dislike the material as it crumples easily and it will fur. It's already furring and this is my first time wearing it out. Overall, I'm quite happy with it. :) So glad I could fit in coz I have big hips. Go and join BO if you love midi skirts.
