today was teachers' day celebration. i guess this year's celebration is more meaningful. the video played before the celebration started made almost everyone cry.
didn't went back to my primary and sec schoolas usual, i guess it's because i wasn't close to them. the teachers impacted me either retired or migrated. so yeah. nonetheless, here's my appreciation message to them.
primary school:
Mr Wong Kok Ying: he was in his later years when he taught me in pri 5 and 6. taught me everything except chinese. i want to thank him for being such a fierce & strict teacher. it's because of this that i learn discipline. thank you for being a good teacher that helped me with PSLE, enabling me to get a score of 218.
Mr Mok: though he's not with us for long, he recognises faces and i greeted him quite often when i go for lunch breaks during band. thanks for teaching us chinese! i appreciate it.
secondary school:
Miss Andrea Tan: yes, nobody likes the english teachers, but she's the one who impacted me the most. she taught me english and social studies. i remembered that i kept failing them and cried whenever i received. cried dring my consultations with her as well. i didn't even knew what a complete sentence was. she knew i was feeling despaired and she said: "meiling, try again even when u fail. if u fail in common test, try again in mid years. fail mid years, try again in prelims." that pulled me through he entire 4 years. she went for a throat operation and has migrated to japan. she's teaching english there now. thanks for being such a great teacher. best wishes to u. (:
tuition:
Serene: she's the one who has made a miracle in A maths. it shot all the way to B3! thank you so much! she's teaching both A & E maths and accounts.
MI:
Mrs Selina Wee: she's one who is superb in PW! thanks for all the help and patience in dealing with our class. (: she's a grat achiever! with everyone getting C and above for PW and my entire group got A! except S.
Miss Seah: she another teacher who can make a miracle happen. (: i'm looking forward to it. he he.
HAPPY TEACHERS DAY!

many events had happened recently after june. got back my mid years results and it wasn't good at all. went to singfest and celebrated national day. and now i'm left with 2 and a half weeks to prelims! >< all the festivities helped build up walls of fun, dreams and fantasies.but suddenly! it all crumbled down today. then i realised... that this is reality and i have to get going.
whatever that is, i thank God that it happened so that i can see the road ahead of me clearly. was it too late? to some people, maybe, but i really agree to what Mr Asman said, that there's always time so long as it's before the A's. it's a matter of how u use it to work towards your goal.
i need to keep adjusting myself to be more discipline everyday. trying to cut down on things that waste alot of my time and start drilling on questions. oh wells.
i was bewildered by what u said to me today though i kind of expected it. i think this is the 1st time i see you falling for someone whom u might not even know. i know we may deceive ourselves by saying that we do not like whoever, but then, our hearts are deceiving. just a word of caution! dun get too distracted and involved in it. such relationships start and end as fast and i'm afraid u might get hurt. your friends and i worry for u as this is the critical moment coming towards the major exams. (: u take care ya? loves.
