Courteous. Righteous. Edified. Dignified.
Last Friday, the staff in our school was invited to attend the official reopening of our buddy school, Chong Boon Secondary. There were speeches, welcome dance, and a short play. The thing that struck a chord in me was how when asked to stand up to sing the school song, there was a unanimous sigh from the rear section where the student cohort was seated. Ahh, very familiar. So I see that some reactions never change. Nice.
Last Saturday, when I was sitting along the Esplanade (after being disappointed with a shooter from Harry's that looked like it's called - Brain Haemorrhage) with Wenn, we were reminiscing about our secondary school days. Coincidentally, when I met Juan for lunch today, she was asking if I ever called Mrs Cheng and that maybe we should call her up to find out how she's doing (I'd bet she's a little rich woman of leisure now).
I miss secondary school days. In fact, I was missing my JC days too, a few weeks back. And I thought to myself, if I can go to the extent of missing JC days, I must REALLY miss studying A LOT!
So, I guess that's the motivation for today. My Secondary alma mater? Zhonghua Secondary School. School motto?
