《漫不经心》

今晚,大小宝怀念睡前听故事。
不停不停的要求bed time story.
蓝女人说了一个不好听的睡前故事:
Long long time ago, there was a poor farmer. He had an old wife.
On the first day, the farmer went to the farm and he supposed to plant some paddy. But he saw a bird, and he thought the bird was really nice, and he decided to do bird watching.
At the end of the day, he went home without doing any planting. His wife told him that the rice was running out of stock and he really have to work harder. The farmer promised to work hard in the farm on the next day.
On the second day, the farmer was set to go for work. His wife reminded him to work hard.
He reached the farm and prepared to work. Here came a frog.
Farmer: Oh, I wonder where this frog is coming from?
And the farmer decided to find out where the frog family is. By the time the farmer came back, it was already late evening. The farmer decided to return home.
On the third day, the old wife reminded him again: rice is going to finish soon. The farmer was so determined to be hardworking today.
But, as he reached the farm. he saw a crow on the scarecrow. It was so irritating that the farmer couldn't work. The farmer decided to shoo away the crow. By the time he return to work, it was late evening again.
He walked home slowly....
蓝女人讲了三天,大小宝都听得挺开心的。然后蓝女人问:
Why the farmer walk so slow?
大宝说: Because he is hungry.
小宝说: Because he never do work
蓝女人问:Why never do work and need to walk so slow?
小宝说: Because later old wife not happy.
蓝女人继续说:
When he reached home, his wife got to know that there was no work for the day, and got very mad with the farmer. She told the farmer, "If tomorrow you never work, you will lost everything."
So, on the next day, the farmer went to work again. This time, he really decided to work. But, when he was about to start work, here came a little duckling, "Quack! quack!"
Farmer: Oh! it is so cute! What shall I do?
大小宝喊道:move on! do work! 小朋友多紧张!
Farmer, “Oh! It is so cute! What shall I do?”
大小宝松了一口气。
Here came the second duck, "Quack! Quack!"
大小宝喊道: Oh no~~~!
The ducklings were yellow, waggling, and quacking...
Farmer, “What shall I do? They are so cute and lovely!”
大小宝提高声量:Move on! Do work! 气氛越来越紧张!
Farmer, “Oh!I got to work!”
大小宝又松了一口气。
Here came the third duckling, "Quack! Quack!"
大小宝又紧张了!
Farmer, “Oh no, they lost their mother! What should I do? I think I better help them find their mother!”
小宝不停的叫: No! No! No!
大宝好矛盾哦!一时喊No, 又有点不知所措。
Farmer, “I think, I better help the poor ducklings...”
大小宝好泄气哦!唉声叹气!
蓝女人继续说:
By the time the farmer returned, it was dark again, the farmer walk home with feeling of scared.... why?
小宝说: Because he never do work
大宝说: Because he did not do his work and scared to be scolded.
蓝女人说: Jie, does it sound familiar to you?
大宝说: Yes! Yes!
蓝女人说: Why?
大宝不回答。蓝女人再问:Why is it so familiar to you?
大宝匆匆的说:Because the farmer is just like me! 语气带尴尬!
蓝女人又继续说:
Yeah, both of you are right. He felt scared to be scolded by his old wife. But when he reach home... what happen?
小宝说: He lost everything!
蓝女人又继续说:
No! He found out that nothing missing, but the wife had died.
大小宝都很安静。蓝女人看不到他们的表情,可是应该可以感觉得到他们预想不到结局是这样的。停了一会儿,蓝女人继续:
The old wife died due to hungry for many days. She saved all the food for the farmer so that the farmer has energy to work.
大小宝好泄气! 开始抗议!
小宝说: No! I want another story!
大宝说: I want a happy or funny one! not like this. I don't like this story!
蓝女人: No! No more story!
大宝说: I don't like this story! This is very bad!
蓝女人: Tell me what is the moral of story?
小宝说: Must do work!
大宝说:The farmer should marry a second wife!
蓝女人差点晕倒: No! That is not the moral of it.
大宝:We must appreciate time. Time cannot come back.
蓝女人: Yes. But how to appreciate time?
大宝说:Do important thing first
小宝说: Must do finish first.
蓝女人: 对咯!要做重要的事情先。而且要专心啊!
大宝还是说: I don't like this story! This is very bad!
蓝女人: Jie, In this world, there are many bad things happened and once it happened, you can't go back and fix it! So you must remember and love this story. It remind you that you must do thing at the right time. 这个世界上就是有很多不美好的事情在发生。像这样的事,如果你不珍惜时间,发生了以后就没有办法从新来过的。
蓝女人心软了,继续说下去:
Now, the story continue like this:
A time fairy suddenly appeared. She said to the farmer, " You can return to four days back. But, with a condition, you cannot waste your time!"
The farmer agreed.
On the first day, the farmer went to the farm he saw a bird.
Farmer, “Oh! The bird is so beautiful! What shall I do?!”
大小宝气势高昂:Work! Move on!
Farmer, “But the bird is so beautiful!”
大小宝紧张得很:Go! Do work! Work first!
Farmer, "Em, I think I better plant my paddy."
大小宝松懈了下来
On the second day, the farmer saw the frog.
Farmer, "Oh, I wonder where this frog coming from?"
大小宝大喊:No! No! No! work! Move on!
Farmer, "Er Ok, I better work now!"
大小宝心情愉悦
On the third day, the farmer saw a crow on the scarecrow.
还没说完大小宝就几里哗啦:Cannot!! Work first ! Move on!
Farmer, "But the crow are so irritating."
大小宝:Don't bother! You should do your work!
Farmer, "Hmm... Ok. I better do my work"
On the forth day, the farmer saw three little poor duckling lost their mother
大小宝已经不停的喊:Cannot!! Work first! Move on!
Farmer, "but, they lost their mother, very pitiful! I think I must help them!"
大小宝使劲的喊:No~~~~!
Farmer, "Alright. Let me finish my work first, and i shall bring some vege home for dinner."
And since then, they lived happily ever after.
这是standard的结局对白。
为什么蓝女人狠心说个坏结局的故事呢?
也要感激大宝激发蓝女人的创意。
近来大宝对功课漫不经心。常常想把功课往明天推。老宝见功课量越来越多要他在学校等待家长接待的时候就开始做,结果大宝出示“王牌”, 老宝气炸的很,回来投诉蓝女人。
就这样,这个故事因此诞生。希望对大宝有效!

《福乐,学游团》



这是一个很美丽的早晨。没有艳阳,迎接着我们到来的却是微微的轻风,和公鸡的鸣笛声。同学们就在这美好的一刻展开了一堂前所未有具别开生面的一课。

Will, 以一贯的热忱介绍 #Folo#福乐》为一日学游的起点。同学们背负着任务来学游,纷纷抓紧每一句精华,启动录影,拍照,笔记。。。

Adrian, 以幽默逗笑的方式为同学们讲课,引导同学们如果让故事各具特色!

同学们专注的上课,偶尔逗笑的讲师迎来同学们欢乐朗朗的笑声。

走出户外, Will 老练无数的分享着自然农作,耐心地细述农庄里的每一个角落, 介绍着走过的树木,花菜,香料。 随地摘来的叶子果子随时传递给同学们,可以即刻往嘴里塞。学员今天饱尝各式新鲜有机香料和菜叶!渐渐,忘我于田园之间,背负任务早已抛弃脑后!

用膳以后,同学们往万福出发。一下车的第一个反应:很臭!(哇咔咔!!)

Will 讲解臭味的来源,从厨余分享,一一道来厨余可以演变成肥土的过程。

同学们又自我鼓励的说:大大力的吸一口气,就不臭了!

学游也来到了尾声。同学们惊艳厨余处理了之后,化为黄金肥土!

学游后记:
同学们从一开始问,“有机菜园有什么好玩?”

到了尾声,同学们说:“老师,谢谢你带我们来这里玩。”

在此,感谢Jacq, WIll 与 Adrian的热心款待。希望不久的将来,福乐会得到更多的回响!衷心祝福《福乐》

《beyond the classroom》


In a very beautiful morning, with shady weather and sirens of roosters, the students tour is kick started with an unprecedented spectacular lesson.
Will, one of the sincere and passionate runner of ‪#‎FOLO‬ farm introduced #FOLO, being “Feed Our Loved Ones”. sharing the reasons and visions of FOLO. while the students who come with mission, started to take videos and pictures, jot down notes. . .
Adrian, a selfless film maker (I suppose, there is a better way of introducing him), using his humor and amusing way to guide the students on story crafting. Sharing tips and ideas of making a good video clip. The hall was lived up with joys and laughter.
Will led the students touring around the farm, patiently shared the value of natural farming, the miracle of natural ecology, the passion of the farmer of FOLO, etc and etc. Students tasted different vegetable leaves and spices, plucked directly from the plants around them, without worry of chemicals.
Students landed on the site that filled with "yuck!" smiles in the noon, that is production farm in Ban Foo.
Will explained the source of the smell, being wastes collected from kitchen and how FOLO processes it and turns it into good property.
The students were amazed and wowed by the fact of wastes collected turn into golds. And that comes to the end of the trip.
Postscript:
"What is so fun about organic farm?"
Before the student landed on the farm, they question about the value of visiting an organic farm.
And towards the end of the trip, the students were so thankful for having this trip.
I believe the trip has open up their eye view and wider their mind set. Do hope that they see the values of "Corporate Social Responsibility", being an individual or an organisation. Deep in the bottom of my heart, I wish it gives a little ripple in their life, loves the mother earth as what FOLO does.
Here, thanks to Jacq, WIll and Adrian enthusiastic hospitality. Do hope that #FOLO will get more responses in the near future!
Heart heartfelt blessing #FOLO
