I realised that this is going to be super like some thankyou speech after someone receives a grammy award. at least it aitn as scary as the presidential speech. no more ferr me til my handover(:
anyways, yupps, i thank all my teachers who have taught me in the last 2.5 years in nus high, my 8 years in mg, my 3 years in mcik. i had the bestest teachers. starting from mcik, some teachers that i remember. mrs low, mrs ong, mrs tay, ms tan, ms lim, ms tan, ms ham, mrs tan, mrs lee, ms yeo, mrs ong, mrs sim, mr lim, mrs chan, mrs tan, mrs kuah, ms chau, mdm lau, ms cheng, mr sukandar, ms teo, mr chai, mr ng, mr tan, mr lee, ms koh, dr seah, dr tang, ms feng, ms lim, mr ang, ms chua, dr wong, ms tan, mr toh, mr lim, ms sim, mr chong, ms chan, mr valles, ms lam, mr ku, mr soh, i guess i should include pe teachers. okay, i cant remember all offhand. i just realised that most are from nus high. well, i think that i've grown a lot, a lot in this school. i've learnt to be more independent, more mature, more prepared to enter society, i hope. this school is harsh, i admit, which is most probably why we all detest it. after looking back, it really stretched my potential, made me push myself further than i thought i could go. i made friends that i hope will last for a lifetime, i had many ups and downs, i've cried, i've laughed, i've had the most unglam and most glamourous moments in this school. maybe the way this school works is this way. we'll look back and be proud to be a student of this school after we realise what the school have done for us over the years that we've suffered. like what people say, whatever doesnt kill you makes you stronger. honestly, this year i thought, it seems like a big jump from year 4 to year 5. i felt like a senior, and i actually was so scared to leave the school, leave this comfort zone within this school. we spent more than half our day in this school, it becomes a 2nd home.
i look back at the 8 years in mg, maybe you can say i got over it, i moved on. i think i had great times there too, in the sense i had fun, real fun. i made a very good friend, her name is grace lim ci en. we started out bickering like enemies, screaming at her for droppnig my scientific calculator, screaming at her for dropping my mathematical set. started out on the same school bus, she sat at the back of the bus emo-ing while i mixed with the kids in front. somehow we are now such good friends that we can overcome any obstacle that threatens our friendship. we went kap together, we tried to study together, she dug my fridge alone, we laid down to talk about everything and anything for hours when i was leaving mg coz we were so scared we were going to drift apart. THANKS GRACE LIM CI EN FOR ALWAYS BEING THERE!(: really really appreciate you for who you are and for accepting me even though i've been changing so much.
anyways, this was suppose to be for my teachers who helped me to pass with flying flying colours(: yes, chem ap, math ap, thanks a lot(: now i know what it means to suffer first so that you will treasure the joy, the rewards that follow even more.
i'm glad i chose to come to this school, that i didnt choose to go to shanghai to study. i dont know what would have happen but i know that i do not regret my choice of staying in singapore, to com to nus high(: though life is tough, though i've become more spastic than before, i enjoy what i'm doing. i dont want to think about my future, i want to treasure what i have right now, do what i can instead of wasting my prime years hating the school just to look back and realise that i actually quite appreciate the school for what it has done ten years down the road.
BYE!(:
