Finaaallly, havent cracked my brains so hard for a long time, not even for the SOW, probably why the SOWs arent done yet..but *phew..sigh of relief for now..
hmm being thinking back of the past 3 weeks in HTA, ATC. it has been like a liminal period, all of us taken out of our daily lives as teachers, subjected to new rules and new routine. Within a short 3 weeks, we learnt new skills, protocols, drills and engaged in 'adventures' we might not have imagined doing before..
evrything has been such a pleasant surprise for me, perhaps because i was already dreading it so before i embarked on this journey. iv been impressed with the kindness of the people here: that's you boyboy, my "heroine" theresa and nicole's form teacher Tianming. You may not know how many lives you touched, im thinking many...with your willingness to give, to share, to help, to make life more bearable, reasonable and understandable. the smiles we share between us, laughter or secret, will alwaz put a grin on my face....dozing off in lectures will take on a totally new meaning now! theres alwaz big papa watching! scary! :)
to TEAM A :) esp Fang ting, Norah, Abi, Adam...you guys crack me up, make me laugh, share my complaints, hear me whine..laugh at me, with me....:) you guys are real god sends...far beyond what i imagined wen we first started. il say it again..im so thankful for you guys..
special mentions: su leng and chio bu adely: you 2 were my earliest frenz in OBTC, from completely different areas, different schools, teaching diff subjects! we were so different, yet hit it off so well! im glad we still share dat locker, still share our moments...thank god for you and you, for being serious and fun at the same time, for being my reminder...what would i do without u guys!
and this is cheers to me. me for being that lucky gal, no matter where i m, god still puts his angels right there for me. I walked this short chapter of my life, with new characters, who will continue walking with me as friends, planning with me as colleagues, being with me as NPCC teachers, different, but held together by this common thread. and i dun fergt to thank my lucky stars fer the frenz who have stayed all these years, this recent years and for whom i know will stay for the years beyond.
