i swear,
i have the BEST bestfriends in the world.


who else will accompany me in school?
who else will invite me over to her table for lunch/dinner?
who else will insisted that i eat with her n bf and not mind me being a lamppost!
who else will patiently teach me maths?
who else will love me the way you do?


this is why i love huiying. (:


she has been there for me just like how meiqin have the whole of my secondary school life.
i swear i'll literally die without them.
or anyone of the da.


today was our productive day.
we did our hwk.
we ate totally lousy food.
and...we did our hwk.


i swear i'm nvr calling mrs guna "goon-ar" ever again.
she rocks as a gp teacher la!
argh i'm so envious of hy's class!
she is the "ms aminah" of gp man!
scary but damnGOOD.
i'm going to do all the hwk that they do and steal all her notes!


i want my distinction in gp!
(thou right now its utterly impossible)


because i'm failing.
i'm failing, even with my A1 in olevels
granted, my eng is honestly not fantastic. i mean compared to all angmoh powerhouses like del, nez and merv in 4a2. but surely, i did something right to get my grade in the end.
why cant i score in gp?
why oh why?
because we must argue.
oh please, i cant argue for nuts!
half the time i dont even understand what i'm saying, and the other half, i'm unsure of my stand. and my tenses and spelling are forever screwed.
so how can i bloody do argumentatives?
this is why i need GUNA.
(and not sami -.-)


sami is not a good teacher at all.
whats the point saying "weixin i'm expecting alot from you...blahblahblah....weixin you can be so much better...you are a **pointer and you should be doing so much better..."
oh please! i have one of the lousiest olevels points ever.

are you TRYING to get me working harder?
oops, try again.
your "encouragement"?....so not working.






'A teacher affects eternity; no one can tell where the influence stops.'
~Henry Adams

there are just some teachers you can never ever forget and you'll always find a part of them in yourself.
and these are some of mine.







THE UNFORGETABLES.





1, mrs zahri.
she taught me music, lit, eng and most importantly, dance.

i'll never forget her for the time she brought us to music room to sing ktv for music. and i sang the most horrible song ever! thanks to her, i'll always love "flying without wings" and "seasons in the sun". (:
i'll never forget how she taught us jazz.
i'll never forget her spoiltrotten but absolutely beautiful zasha.





2, ms elaine chan
my dance instructor for life.

with her, we had to do all sorts of conditioning unheard of in danceclasses.
with her, we had to pay fines is we don't smile/pointe/perform.
with her, we had to push ourselves to our limit.
with her, we loved and hated dance like crazy.
with her, we became the way we are today.

no one can believ the shit we went thru during her practises. she was the only teacher that made 2hrs seem like 20hours of dancing.
i rembered the first syf i wasnt even suppose to be in it. at that time, i was horrible at dancing. i was like the second team with yiyan and whoelse ar? but ther was this girl that made mschan so angry that mschan ask me to replace her. thats how i got into syf.

even then, i wasnt good enough. one time, ms chan placed me in the centre and i screwed up very badly in class. she came up to me and reprimanded me in private. i rembered how i cried becos i wasnt good enough.

afterwards, i pushed myself.
i wanted to excel in dance. she inspired me to want to teach dance. to perform forever.
and i swear i wasnt the only one she inspired.

i'll do anything to be her student again.





3, ms ebelle chong
the nextdance instructor.

she was the one that truly refined our dance style and made me love contemporary. granted she is no mschan, but she is still amazing.
i want to follow her footsteps to join nus dance and join lasalle. (:

she taught me stage presence and inspired me to take up ballet! (:





4, mdm ng
my sec1 form teacher. (:

the best maths teacher i ever had!
who else can write the formula on the board, explain in less than 10sentences and leave the class alone to do the work. i forgot what she says when she taught but i'll always rember how fast all of us can get it. (:

she is the mommy of 1a1. (:





5, ms wong
the best science teacher.

i swear she is the "aminah" in secondary sch science.
she was the reason for my good foundation in science.
i rembered how she used to use to teach us sec3 sci even thou we are sec2. she also made use of her pure bio notes so that we can better understand the topic.
she made sci fun!
unlike whoever is my other sci teachers. sorry u guys are no good, so why bother to rember your names?





6, mr nair
the history/socialstudies teacher
sec 3 form teacher

haha, the first male teacher i mentioned so far. (:
you are one of the best humanities teacher i ever had. i'll respected you alot.

i rembered one time some modellin agency that we were workin for, were forcing us to pay up compensation becos we wanted to quit even thou we signed a bond. i knew that legally it was impossible we had to abide by that. i called you immed to check. and you took the time to doublecheck with your lawyer friend. you even offered legal representation if things got nasty and called back to check me on us.
i was so grateful.

i rembered the day before sec 3 exams for history you were trying desperately to teach us something. i knew the answer but you dint let me answer. you keep probing the class but no one knew. i got fed up and told you to just tell the class. at that time, i had no idea how rude i was. i was just so fed up that it was such a simple question. you stared at me in disbelief. with hesitation, you said "weixin get out of my class".
i was shocked. i never got sent out of class before and ther u were sending me out. i stood rooted. and u said plainly, "weixin get out of my class". i stood outside crying, shocked and angry. you were my favourite teacher and you scolded me for the first time. after class ended you came out and talked to me. i still rember what you said.
the next day, i tied with nashita for top scores in our history paper.
then i rember you joked that you should sent me out of class more often! haha!

i rembered one article you gave us on globalisation from people's soft website.
i still keep it. i agree it was a damn good article. even my brother used it. (:

i rembered when i was crying over my olevels results, you came over to console me. you laughed at my silliness for crying even thou i scored decent grades. you encourage me to not give up.

all the way till then, i've always felt that you were one of the best teachers i've ever had. becos you never stop believing in me, and for that, i believed in myself.

but when i came back last year to sec sch for teacher's day.
i confided in you about my stress in jc and how i could not cope.
you surprised me.
you said you were surprise that i choose a jc.
granted i was the only person in my class to go jc, but you dint have to say those hurtful things. like how you thought i was unsuitable for jc and how i should cut losses and just withdraw. you said why waste more time? you said i should join my classmates in poly.
you stop believing in me.
it hurted.
i was crying as soon as i left the staff room. i sought to prove you wrong. even thou it wasnt a clear promotion, but i got promtoed to year2. and you know what? i'll do well in alevels and i'll prove it to you.

i can be in jc.





7, ms koh
the sec3 art teacher

oh god, i hate your guts so much in sec 3. and i'll bet you hate me too. i dint do my work, i'm so lazy and you got so annoyed with me. but i'll have to admit you are a great art teacher. maybe i dun agree with you all the time but you are great.

i only wished you continue teachin us in sec 4.

i'll nvr forgot how when i came back to sch, you took the trouble to stop playing pingpong with mr goh, go all the way to the general office on the first floor to get the keys for art room and climb all the way back up to the third floor to the art room.
all this, so that i could see my batik.

thanks mskoh. (:





8, mrs bala.
the sec 4 lit teacher

haha, i'm sorry to say this but i've felt you resemble the baby turkey vulture in "the animal" since day one. but you are a great lit teacher. (:

paul always tells me that he come to know me becos you said i was one of the best lit students in sec 3. i was so touched when i heard that.

i'm sorry i dint score well for lit in olevels. i dint study lit at all.
when i was bawling after olevels results, you also come to console me. you werent angry that i dint get a distinction for lit and you told me to cheer up. (: haha, i'll never forget that.





9, mdm lim!
the sec3/4 chinese teacher

haha, where do i even begin man!
you were the strictest teacher in sec 3 and i hated your guts to the core! i talked constantly behind your back and boy, did i bitch! i even started a hate profile for u on friendster. haha.

i rembered one time merv and gang wrote something bad about you using "mou mou ren" and you got so mad you sent all of us to see mr low (the principal). haha, damn funny!

but i was grateful.

i rembered how del and i was so anxious when mr low was saying about the olevels chinese results. we were panicking and i damn rember crying like crazy. del and mq had to console me like crazy.
del, rember how scared we were to go down to see our results! (:

haha, and rember how we screamed and hug like crazy when we both got B4? (: den we both rushed to tell mdm lim. haha, she was so happy. especially when we gave her our photo for our farewell gift.
