Fav teacher
Saw e news of the chi model teacher being revealed... suddenly made me rem 1 teacher who made an impact in my life which i probably wont forget...
He was my chi teacher for sec 1 n 2... admittedly i was never a gd student... much less a gd chi student... since young i have never had e habit of learning my chi spelling (pls dont ask how i got pass my exams)... so actually my chi was quite bad... den always hand up assignments late... never study for tests (coz of all e fill in e blanks of chi words which as mentioned earlier i didnt bother to study)... worse still i always sleep during his lessons. But he never even wake me up even for once... he knew i was always training hard for vball... n i wasn't adapting well to spending 2 hrs on e bus to n fro sch n e workload of sec sch. There was even once he got a clsmate to pass me a bottle of chicken essence... n that was rite after i slept for his whole lesson... chicken essence lehz... my parents also never buy for me before... n he also allowed me to skip some cls extra events... like visits n such... so that i wont miss vball training... where to find such teacher? den 1 more pt... he will always check wif us wat kind of homework or test we having... n arrange his homework deadline n test accordingly... so we'll have adequate time to prepare for all subjects...
Though i didnt really do well for my sec 1 n 2 chi... which was after like quite a no. of extra lessons he sat down wif me n a couple of clsmates after sch to revise our work... who can i blame ritez? myself lahz... but wat i noe is that he did cultivate my liking for chi at that time... n i actually chose c lit to study for o's... which turned out to be quite a sorry choice i made in e end... but i never regretted this decision... seriously... coz he's e one who influenced me...
Wasn't taught by him during sec 3... but whenever i saw him ard in sch he wld always talk to me... like he always used to... den he took my cls for sec 4 c lit... n when during e sec 3 hols when he saw me during 1 of my vball trainings... vball court was beside canteen... he gave me a motivation talk to perk me up for my c lit... i got a f9 for sec 3 c lit lorz... n he never did gave up on me during e whole of sec 4... when i was still not getting decent grades...
I got a a2 for my prelims... which i knew he delibrately marked lag abit so i can make it to hc... for o's i got b3... i apologised to him... but he wasnt at all angry nor disappointed at me or my cls... though i heard he was assigned only lower sec cls after my cls's dismal results for c lit...
Even after i went to hc... i always saw him in canteen when i was back helping out wif trainings... n he was always offering to treat me to coffee n asking me how i was coping wif jc work n all that...
Awhile later i heard he contracted cancer, so there was once i specially went back to find him after he's discharged frm hospital... n i cld see how hagged he looked... but he still was concerned abt my studies n asked abt e rest of my batch... n was still swarmed by students he was teaching... Respect was e only word i had for him...
Abt 1 yr back i received a sms frm a ex-clsmate telling me that e teacher passed away... i wanted to go for his funeral n i was able to go despite still being in ns...but in e end i didnt... i noe he wont wan to see his student cry in front of him...
To him: I'm sorry for not doing as well as ur expectations of me. N i'm eternally grateful for u instilling e love for e language n always there concerned not only for my studies but catering to my whole lot of personal probs as well. I will never forget u n i'm sure all ur other students wont too. Thank u...
To every1 reading this: I noe this will sound cliche... but take e chance u've got to show ur appreciation to any 1 who made a postive impact on ur life... juz a simple sms will do... dont wait till its too late...
