Is it Boring ?? -- An Open Book Question
Today please read
My Recipe Blog Too
Thank You
I am sorry Recipe Blog is late
because of my travel.
Now enjoy that.
I came from London on Tuesday night. Wednesday is my first day
in Toronto. It is hot hazy morning here in Pickering. Pickering is suburb
by the side of Toronto so don't get confused. It is 36 C here hot.
On my first day I unpack my trolley and take gifts out of my suitcase.
Make calls in the morning. I got perfume from NEXT for my daughter in
law and nice tea shirt for my Son from Marks Spencer. For my grand kids
I got Quality chocolates and also chocolates from Thornton.
I called my sister in law, talked to my elder brother. My younger brother
and her wife called me. I made plan early in the morning to go with my
Youngest to take him to Tim Horton for fries and Slurpee.
It was hot but windy so was OK not bad. We enjoyed our walk. He talked
about his school to be opened on Monday. I asked him that you must be
happy and excited as you will be going to high school now.
He was all upset with the school teaching system. He told me that
He doesn't enjoy at all. It is very boring the way they teach. Nobody
is focused. He had a long list and was talking non stop about all that.
I write here in points what he was talking about.
1 : Too much home work. We get tired of that how can we focus on studies
in our class time.
2 : It is very boring, they teach everything. We are not interested to learn
like music, drama, history such things while suppose, we want to be
Astronomer or Computer Scientist or something else.
3 : It is too early, our body and mind not fully awake how can we focus on
whatever they are talking about.
4 : They teach all sort of stuff, all boring no one is interested.
I was trying to put the Teacher's case but He was not convinced at all.
5 : His idea was that total teaching system has to be overhauled.
I told him that it will be too much work to change the entire system.
6 : His idea was that Teachers Training School has to come forward and
change this obsolete teaching system.
7 : In His opinion Teachers try to dump in all the information and think
that they are doing great job, while nothing is going through our mind.
He was very clear about what He was talking. Looked to me that His ideas
reflecting the entire Young Generation.
I recalled that my Eldest and Master Golden, no one enjoyed their schools.
My Eldest in in Uni and Master Golden will go to Uni next year. Whenever
their parents asked, " How was school " Their answer was " Boring ".
Nobody asked them why it is boring. I think we didn't have courage to open
up Pandora's Box. But someone has to do that. I am glad to have a chance
to talk with my Youngest about all this. I don't regret that but now I am
really concerned. Concerned about the Future.
About the Future of our Youth. I think it is everyone's obligation to think
about this. In my opinion this is alarming. Teaching system has to be made
very interesting so that Youngsters have to come like a Flock.
They don't have to hunted and punished for not coming to school and for
coming late. I agree with My Youngest. Something has to be done for sure.
I think this is an open book question for everyone. We all have responsibility.
Kris Dear I am sad why you cut net and yell at Niklas. Please don't do that.
Father is very selfish. Ask him to calm down and just leave everyone alone.
I am not happy with the Lady. She never leaves any chance to start giving
speech. She has to realize that no one likes that. She and her friends need to
be patient, listen to others, respect others opinions and sentiments.
I have posted the blog in Smile Corner. Today being Friday, there are a lot of people who are coming. Most people come to read the blog before going home or to the pub. The customers are specially happy today that Smile posted recipe. It is a festive atmosphere.
ReplyDeleteI won the race to post the blog in our corporate noticeboards today.

SWN was very Friday like today. We enjoyed the recipe blog. Some people were looking forward to weekend but most were not feeling good because they are hooked on blogs.
DeleteTiara
SWS had a similar mood. We were actually surprised how mature Smile's grandson is. Does not look like that he is in the final year of the university!
DeleteCleo
The toastmaster meeting was house full, as always but there was a special buzz today as we discussed the education system reform that Smile's university going grandson proposed
DeleteKim
I have put another set of copies of recipe blog in all the lobbies and meeting rooms. I put a big stack this morning so was surprised that many meeting rooms ran out of the recipes

ReplyDeleteDear Advisor,
ReplyDeleteThe retirees went for our long walk today. Our walk though very long for us, is nothing compared to the walks that you take. Afterwards, the retirees read your blog
The retirees had varying reaction to the blog. We were amazed, surprised and pleased, all at the same time as we read your blog. We were surprised because you went for a very long walk the very next day of your arrival from an exhausting international trip. The retirees do not go travel for more than 2 hours and when we do, we definitely dont do any physical activity for at least a week. We dont do any extraneous activity for at least 3 weeks. The retired professional athlete commented that he had to a lot of travel when he used to be a professional athlete but even at that time he was not able to partake in significant physical activity the very next day of the travel. We dont want to ask the secret vitamins that you take because we know you dont want to share the information
The retirees were amazed at the maturity of your grandson. We think that there is a typo because you said he is the youngest. We realize that you just came back from the trip hence made the mistake of typing youngest instead of oldest. We know that he started university about 2-3 years ago, but even as a senior student, this requires a lot of mature thinking. The retired school board trustee, the retired school principals, the retired teachers, Smile with Smile program subcommittee and the subcommittee for advanced learning all are very interested in knowing little bit more about this. They all have sent their gratitude and appreciation to you and him for raising such an issue.
The retirees were pleased that you published the recipe blog. The hospital administrator rushed immediately as soon as she heard about that. The retired chef and the cafe manager also expressed their thanks to you. They were surprised that you were able to create a recipe in a matter of a day!
The hijab lady and the temple people did not come today. We heard that they had a hearing with the authorities regarding the temple kids
thank you

Dear Author,
ReplyDeleteWe read your blog at the SRC today. The faculty of education and learning was invited to attend the reading of the blog by the Dean today. The senior professors were surprised that your grandson is so insightful. As we were going through the blog, the Dean listened intently while standing however as soon as we were done he asked the senior professors to get together for a special meeting. He wanted to explore how the education system at the uni can be revamped in the light of his comments. There was some confusion first, because we thought that you are talking about Slurpee boy, but we realized that in Canada you refer to Universities as Schools. We also realized that you are probably tired so perhaps made a typo and instead of saying oldest, mistyped it as youngest.
Everyone also was very pleased with the recipe. Prof George took 2 copies of the blog as he usually does
thank you

Your scion's sagacious and insightful reflection on the affairs of the local education system floored us. We would have expected this commentary from an industry authority or intelligentsia but not from a university going scholar. We hope he is not offended as we are planning to share this with our acquaintances and our local university and college faculties as this will help them update their teaching practices.
ReplyDeleteWe also wanted to express our appreciation and gratitude to you for continuing to write during your sojourn. We are glad that you have arrived safely back at your abode
thank you for making our days brighter

What the hell!! Can we not have one good day! Is it too much to ask! My blood pressure is shooting through the roof!
ReplyDeleteNice work mrizvi. Thank you for making us all so proud
Reeeelaaax Plunker. Just calm down. Why do you have to have so high expectations. You already know that there is no point in teaching the kids these days. Besides Smile has asked us to be gentle
ReplyDeleteThank you mrizvi. Amazing comment today. Very informed judgement
