Thank You
thank you for the never boring lessons.
thank you for the many movies you've shown. ( i still liked 'wag the dog' very much!)
thank you for the belief you had in us which many other teachers have failed to have.
thank you believing that i could do well.
thank you for your vote of confidence.
thank you for helping me realise my love for writing.
thank you for helping me realise as well, that maybe there's something i could do in the scope of writing.
thank you very much mr chew.
my words from last year still hold.
'anyway, i am forever grateful to mr chew han ei the best gp teacher in VJC!'
thank you. :)
i remember my very first gp essay.
27/50 and it was marked leniently.
it wasn't that great a blow. because my english had been on a steady decline since sec three after i got one lousy teacher after another.
(and yes, lousy english teachers affect your grades because you see no point in putting in effort to do well)
and after that it didn't get any better.
i still remember the -oh horrors of all horrors!- 22/50 comprehension.
and i still remember having GP remedial. -chuckles-
but i kept your advice in mind. keep a journal, write about your thoughts and feelings.
so i did. and somehow, one way or another, it helped.
and the improvement showed ever since last year's midyears.
(and my blog entries too thank god. i still cannot believe the way i used to write. makes me cringe)
i remember you telling me and jamie.
work hard, so that we can improve to an A grade by this year.
haha. i'm sorry we erm, sort of fell sort of an A grade. or even a B3 grade at that, for the midyears.
but i still believe, that we would be able to hit that exponential curve during the As!
we would not let you down :)
GP may be an AO subject. but it's one subject that has brought about the idea of going into journalism, hence opening up another option.
i may not have the language prowess of rachel or rai, but i will strive to do better
(eg. dictionary.com is my favourite website. ha. ha)
thank you, once again.
hope you would get to see this
(because we dunmanians aren't exactly good at expressing gratitude in person. haha)
or any kind teachers may please pass on the msg thanks
luckily i never say anything bad abt the school eh. heh heh.
anyway it just suddenly hit me this morning that, soon there would be no more school.
no more vjc, no more short bus rides to school, no more uniforms.
and as much as i've complained about the school, i'm still highly defensive when it comes to other schools' people bitching about it.
i am still proud of being in vj, no doubt.
and i've, on many occasions, told many people that wearing vj's uniform is like wearing a branded clothing. not everyone has the ability (or desire actually, but never mind) to wear it. haha.
i do like the school. i just didn't like some of the people. but whatever really.
i will miss the school.
and i'm surprised myself.
the next time somebody haolians to you, try saying this :
"haiyo. what did your mother teach you when you were young? cannot lie right?'
haha. i nearly died laughing when wil told me that.
anyway i wish some of the kids and parents would stop complaining about the PSLE paper. stop it already won't you?
i cannot believe some of the things they can say.
i'm sure one bloody maths question will cause you to be emotionally damaged lah!
wait til you come to jc. wait til your jc prelims. then you would know what it's like to be emotionally damaged!
spoilt pampered kids. -grumbles-
