Life's Brief Candle

This reminds me of grandpa who left us for years

I miss him suddenly

hope you're doing fine up there

we love you forever ♥

 one thing, it's really hard to have heart to heart sessions within human nowadays

either with your family, closest friend or even impossible, with your teacher

we have this really dedicated teacher in school who actually had this session today in school

yeah, the none other than Mr Yu

as a younger self, i've always thought that he's this very fierce and strict teacher

but not until i get to know him

he's actually very nice, caring, loving, helpful and many more

one of my fav teacher in school

he gathered us together today to make our confessions to our friends including himself

i didn't manage to say that much about him because i was totally blank at that time

 as a matter of fact, i was kinda frustrated at him (like how felt about me) when he commented on me in front of my dad during the first term's parents day because i did badly in chemistry

telling my dad the talkative and not so attentive part of me

i was devastated at the very first 

but not till i realize my rebelliousness and stubbornness

the scoldings didn't fail me but yet it pushed me to another level

i told myself that i've gotta prove myself to them by achieving better results

and finally i succeeded with not very high marks but i'm really satisfy with that

not until trials, i worked even harder 

my hard work paid off after i got my results

not that amazing marks but at least i know he realized my changes

that is what a teacher truly hope from his/her students 

as always, things will not turn out as what you expected it to be

but never frown because it's not the end of the world, yet

 

besides, i was overall elated with what you guys said today

a very big thank you to all of you for the tolerance with my attitude

albeit all the memories that we've shared even for a short period of time

from the gatherings and outings to the shattered moments

throughout my life, you guys will be the ones that i appreciate most

also a billion thanks to Cikgu Siti, Cikgu Maimunah and Cikgu Kala for preparing such delicate and meaningful souvenirs for us

the three very supportive and lovely teacher in school 
the ones that sacrificed enough to make us better

gifts musn't always be material-wised

even a small one like a pen portrays the appreciation of people towards us

the gift, as defined Light Unto The World

this time really it is, "This Is It"

we've graduated !

words aren't enough to express my feelings

but a big thank you to the teachers for making today a successful day

i am indeed sad and reluctant

that special bond between teachers and students is seriously indescribable

WE HAVE 
no more "lun cheong meat" a.k.a handsome Mr Yu (happy or not :D )
no more "ekuiliti pemilik" a.k.a pretty Puan Rohaya 
no more "sayang" a.k.a Cikgu Siti

no more "sorry" a.k.a Puan Maimunah

no more "good afternoon everybody" a.k.a fat fat Mr Ali

no more "y=mx+c" a.k.a cute Mr Ramesh

and no more all the other teachers who taught me throughout the years
i'll never forget all those memories that we had together
regardless the bad or good ones

I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH !! ♥

although we've been through all those awkward times

the misunderstandings, abhorrence, hatreds and all those negative thing

it's really good to see everyone unite and gather together again today

seriously I had a really fun day despite the tears

it was a hard time for me, pretty sentimental so yeah, whatever 

at least we all know that even though how worst things can go, ultimately we're still there for each other

 it was the 2nd of June of year 1992 

and I was borned ! 

it was exactly 17 years ago and i'm at such a tender size

first birthday party

and almost all my relatives came

despite dad or mom's side

let's see, first zoo visit ?

that's young and beautiful mummy !

started kindergarten a year early because there were some mishaps i think

that towel I'm holding is like my baby

gotta have it every night to sleep

I'm still holding it now ! ( the one similar to it )

the still young looking daddy

time flies, he's already 51 years old this year

yet still looking so strong

year 1994, the birth of my second brother

this should be my first penang/ p.d. trip i suppose

and that's me and my brothers !

celebrating the birth of the forth

the one crying :D

 

my favorite shirt when i was younger

gotta wear it everywhere i go

was in singapore in the picture

and i have two very cute childhood friends

we always wear the same shirt 

used to hang out every saturday night alongside our parents

we entered primary school but still we kept in touch

but not so after we entered secondary school

then i entered senior 1 and I look so dumb i know LOL

it was grandfather's birthday when i was in Senior 1

then i was in Senior 2

and that's where all the love starts to blossom

one really sad and devastating thing during that year was the death of grandpa

it's the lost of one of my closest relative

my aunt cried so badly

grandpa was the best of the best

he took care of his daughters and sons so well

he treated and pampered his grandchildren wonderfully

I'll miss you forever grandpa

was in Form 3 back then

went for trip to Malacca and Johor with the relatives

look in the photo carefully, it was exactly on my birthday!

very first trip with almost the whole family

went over to Sabah to attend my cousin sis's wedding dinner

then I entered Form 4

into a gracious class 

into a whole new environment

where i met the nicest peeps on earth

no more objective for bm, no more (that much) objective for sej

almost every paper, you have to write till your hand break

met new teachers who then became the closest teacher

I deeply remember when Mr Yu entered the class

he was talking about i-forgot-what-was-that

and all the sudden came 99 persien (percent)

the whole class burst out laughing their lungs out

another great teacher was Mr Seeva with his unique Indian slang

and i still remember all the times when he goes "ling-a" "ling-a"

 never will I forget Mr Benjamin, the genius looking man

with his great sense of humor

Encik Qhalid with his superb singing skills

the former vocalist in a malaysian band

is hard to be forgotten

and there came Miss Woo

who looked so fierce and stern when she first came into our class

we were like so frightened of her

but sooner or later we realized that she's actually a very caring teacher who loves her students dearly

adding on, to all the teachers that taught me since junior and the ones that i left out

a very big thank you and i love you guys

 

our first trip oversea

even though it's just Thailand, not US or UK

yet we're overwhelmed

cherish every second and minute spent together

damn, we had so much fun !!!

couldn't wait for the upcoming trip !

and then Form 5

doing my final year in high school

waving goodbye to suria after 11 years there

at the beginning of the year was all about trips trips and trips

we went to sabah after CNY

then to redang during Labour's Day

 

then to Penang with grandma

  

to Malacca during the raya holidays

and genting for the raya holidays also 

well at first, i couldn't wait to graduate cause, for god's sake i was dealing with problems lately

friends tearing apart, prejudices and so much more

with so many dramas going on, i couldn't bare to stay in school for just another day

admitting that i held grudges these few months 

i was so disgusted by the attitude of almost everyone

everything went upside down and downside up

 i wanted to just get my butt outta school and into college and start a whole new life

but not until today, all the sudden i felt so reluctant

i actually didn't want to graduate but to continue in such situation

i  guess i've learned the true meaning of forgive and forget

people walk in and out of our lives

either we or they themselves decide whether to stay with us or not

i wanna say thank you to all those who disliked or dislike me

for you people made me a stronger human

captured the true meaning of friends and life
seriously, we don't have to look into the approval of others to carry on with our lives
as long as we know what we're doing, that's it

surprisingly, i'm missing the teachers even more now 
Puan Rohaya, Mr Yu, Cikgu Siti, Cikgu Maimunah, Mr Ali, Encik Qhalid, Mr Ramesh, Miss Paulina, Cikgu Kala and all others

and lastly i couldn't wait for Graduation Day

so curious to see what's the teachers' surprise for us !

it all sound so mysterious !
thank you so much to Mr Ali for the treat yesterday
had a really fun time with you
all the hugs and kisses, we'll remember you forever
