The last lesson.

Today was the last lesson. well there may still be one on thurs. But this is the last official one. it is really sad. though there were no tears not sure how the others feel lar. but there's a tinge of sadness and yet happiness. such an ironic mixture. Sad that he will be retiring and yet happy for him. After so many year of teaching...slogging his heart out literally...he can finally relax and enjoy the wonders of life ehs?

thought of the first time we were taught by him. it was scary...he instilled fear in us. hahas. was very strict and we get scoldings almost every other day. eventually...we understood his rationale behind his actions and scoldings. Slowly...we came to respect him more and more. his lessons became more interesting. well he also started cracking jokes....

dun think i will ever 4getting about thes two words "monkeys" and "artists" hahas....can still remember the blackouts we had in sec3. of how we used to wish it would happen during maths lessons...well, we din understand him well at that time...

All good things never last. but that's what makes all these things precious to one. and led us to know how to appreciate it. The teachings we will never forget. Esp "don't be a monkey."

Bye Mr Tan. have an enjoyable retirement! enjoy yourself. you have been a great teacher!
