After working at the finance department in school, I have lots of random thoughts that run past my mind each day. Firstly, must parents these days be so protective towards that child that is already 16++. Hey,it is already poly and parents still ask " can I follow him to school on the first day of school?" I thought that is only done in Primary School at age 6++. Are you trying to say that after ten odd years of education, your child still have not grown up. Recalling 2 years back, where I have to do the entire enrollment on my own, payment to be done at OCBC where mum just pass me the money. It was still vivid on my memories that shijiao and myself have to make the purchase of the laptop on our own. We then carry both laptop to my house where sj repack. Hey, it is a laptop each as the as the accessories, we have to use 2 hands. I still remember I help sj to carry the laptops while she carry the accessories as well as tapping my EZ link card for me. Another way round when we board the shutter bus to my house. This is how we survive!!! Secondly, financial assistance is only for those families that really need it. Please never misuse is offer from school. Families that came to apply for assistance this year; If you are really poor, then u should not have handphones; you may give excuses that people need to contact. But hey, 当你真的没钱;拥有手提电话可是个负担。 Their dressing do not show There are still all sorts of people that I do not hope to list. And I also detest people who say they have NO money, then still have money to travel overseas; giving all sorts of reasons (无论那些理由都不成立) buy bags and clothes, take taxi, instead of cooking every meal; they eat outside. But never mistaken me, is ok between friends to say that I am broke and save the money. I believe my friends will understand what I mean!! Thirdly, looking back at my friends in 2e5, 2004. They are really wonderful. I believe that the batch of friends that you mix with do affect the way you present yourself. I am rather confident that all 10 girls including myself as well as guys are rather independent. We do not shed a try easier and do our best in whatever we undertake. Currently, everyone is taking a different route but recalling back those joyful days, it did put a smile across my face. Everyone attended 2 chalets, mostly sponsered by teachers. Everyone stay for the night, you see ALL stay. So I have to say, I believe that from then on all parents trust their child. This is how we learn to be independent and mature through the days. Huihui and yixin always worked hard for the class noticeboard and as a class helped out and we were the champions class. Enjoyed all those girl guides activities with Sheryl and Huihui, those few courses that we get to attend. Prefects duty and camp with Shi Jiao and Melody. Thankful to Yixin for organizating all activities, even currently. Yulin, Eunice and Shimin(known as YES) that cracks jokes to spice schoollife Yanshan for helping in anyway possible Not forgetting on one of the day that we had Amath test and after that the whole gang went to play photohunt. If I am not wrong, we managed to be top scorer?? Guys that were there to crack more jokes!! I really feel that friends do influence each other very much and I am glad that I hava an good batch of friends. Even though these days, we do not really meet up but we still remembers each other. I LOVE them ALL Suddenly have the feel to write so much; that's is why I love working during holidays. I get to experience and learn new things as well as looking at issues from different angles! It help me keep my brain going even though there is no schoolwork. |
