Today was a day of isolation, felt really lonely... But for the sake of everyone else health, I was compliant.
At today's Founder's day Thanksgiving service I receive some book prizes. What I lamented was that I forgot to turn to face the camera for photo shoot AGAIN! The message from the guest of honour, Principal of Singapore Poly Mr Tan, struck me as extremely relevant. He spoke about gratefulness and loyalty, about giving back. I find it hard to be grateful when the experiences are not completely satisfactory. Nonetheless, today I came prepared to recognise the teachers whom had made a difference in my life: Miss Lim, for being unwavering in answering my physics queries; Mrs Tan, for being my choir teacher and for being such an excellent chemistry teacher; Mr Ganesan, for establishing my mathematical proclivity which I depend on so much to lessen my workload; Mr Chan, for instilling my avid interest in biology; Mr Tan, for teaching me PEEL which I still depend on today; Mrs Ly-Ann; for making english language lessons interactive. I came prepared with thank you cards. Today I was honoured, today I honour those who made me what I am.
After we finished singing Miss Lim's birthday song, while part of the class was getting hyped up, I left at the same time as my fellow councillors.
