Life goes on....

Haven't been updating this blog and honestly, it might be because I am reluctant to touch on the topic. I have not quite explained fully for the decision that I have made. Not that the reason really matters to all of you, just that maybe some of you might want to know.

But before I touch on that, I just want to congratulate my form class. I am really proud that all of you have managed to promote successfuly without any help from the school. My only fear now is for the weaker ones. You guys really have to work very hard to ensure that you catch up next year which is a highly crucial year. NEVER get complacent as it will only lead you to regret. C'mon guys and girls, it is going to be the last year, make a beautiful final dash. I have 100% faith that all of you will be able to go to your preferred choice! Remember! For those who wants to go poly, aim for 14 points and below (L1R4) while those who wants to go to JC, aim to score 18 and below (L1B5). Start finding information about the courses available and repeatedly ask yourself what do you want to do and decide on that quickly! Ms C won't be there for the 2nd part of the year to constantly nag at you. So, really, remember that you walk your own path!

As for the reason why Ms C has to go, to be very honest, I can't really find a concrete reason for that. One thing is for sure, it has absolutely nothing to do with all of you, students. I really like teaching the Sec 3s and the graduating students and I really wish that I could see all of you all the way to the Os! I guess having stayed at the same environment for 5 years, I really need to take a look outside. It is a case of having your sight shortened after staying put in the same place for too long. Also, not getting the appreciation that you think you deserved. (Nothing to do with the students, definitely) And of course, the feeling of exhaustion and tiredness is starting to set in. Not forgetting, at the end of next year, most of you would have moved on to another stage of your life and Ms C is also moving on to another stage of her life and with that, a fresh start in a new environment allows her to view things from a fresh perspective. Of course, I could choose to inform all of you later just before I leave, but changes will set in beginning of next year (e.g. form teacher and subject teacher change) and I do not want all of you to cope with such unexpected changes as next year is too important to the Sec 3s especially. Hene, by telling you now, you would be mentally prepared to cope with new changes come Jan 2008 and will be ready for the final dash next year and not be bothered by such changes because you are already mentally prepared.

I am not sure if what I have spoken here makes sense to you. I am sure the more sensible ones will understand and many of you respect my decision. I will really miss all of you. Being able to teach all of you has been one of the best journeys of my life, to date. Please remember, I may not be physically there after June 2008, but whenever you guys need help, I will be there. I am just a call away.
