hmm. it feels weird, unearthing photos which were previously non-existant in my memory. i was totally unaware that i had a photo with my primary 6 chinese teacher (tan tat eng) and looking at her classic frown in the photo really brings back memories of primary school, and of how we used to gang up to make her life -well- a little more like hell.
i can't even recall how she became my favourite teacher, especially after she bored the socks off all of us back in p5.
but i have come to realise that i truly miss her, i miss her SO MUCH that even i can't believe it.
looking at all those old photos, somehow i feel kinda sad. like i'm missing out on something... and maybe it's hard to face that those experiences and friendships are irretretrievable now. i've moved on to another phase in my life, just like everyone else has. and i guess everyone does miss their own "last times" at one point or another. and it's not like NOW does not have its perks. it's not like i'm unhappy now or anything morbid like that. but now that i look back, maybe i could have done more to treasure those experiences, and those pretty much carefree days where my only worry was tuition homework. everything was so simple and uncomplicated then. and i guess everything will get more complicated with time.
naturally, that sucks, but at least i've got everyone suffering alongside me.
i'm so gonna regret posting this entry. i'm gonna think what on earth was i thinking?! thank goodness my blog isn't a hot favourite. least ways, i hope it isn't.
and, mdm tan tat eng, even though i know you'll never read this, (your IT skills are limited to han shen and calling rahman to rescue you) i'd like to tell you good job in helping all of us get through psle chinese, and thank you for bringing a little more joy into my life with your quirky ways. hope your new chinese new year clothes fit you well this time round, and that you've finally got a new pencilcase. god bless.
