You're in my heart,always...

I remembered vividly bout my teacher who taught me during my secondary years up to form 5. In that same year, she left in Dec back to her hometown in Penang. I did not have the chance to attend her farewell gathering as I was already in Kuching the day after sitting for my last paper in SPM.

I attended her bm tuition when i was in form 1. I just love going to her tuition class! I learned a lot of vocab and i used them frequently in my essays. Besides, she always updated us with news headline and what was happening in M'sia. I heard the news from her even before I read the newspaper!

When I was in form 2, I was in the same group as Yii Zhu, Grace, Ai Vui and some others whom I can't remember. sorry,my friends. >< we tried our best to give the correct answers and fought towards the end. How happy we were when our group won! it was our never-say-die spirit that brought us to that level of achievements! each of my group members were awarded "Piala Sarjana" as promised by teacher. thanks everyone! we made it! =)

She also taught me acct when i was in form 4 and form 5. During her lessons, she introduced a lot of games n quizzez to make our class lively n interesting. The games,as I recalled were "Gladiator", "Electric", Kerusi Panas" and "Tawanan Perang". There are many other games but I couldn't remember them. My friends and I were looking forward to her class each time we finished our other lessons. We can't wait for the brain-twisting challenges as it had always been a tough start for us when came to answering the questions. Our teacher loves to ask us tricky questions and most of the time we got "trapped". Her different mimics and face expressions made us believed her answers. hahaha =) we were divided into groups and each group was given a little cute soft toy for us to press it when we got the answer. Sometimes, she would asked us to raise up our belongings or "Siapa cepat,angkat kaki!" hehe... and the whole class bursted into laughters! It was an unforgettable,yet sweet moments.

"Teacher, your encouragement, support and advices still carries me along til today although we have lost contact with each other. You inspired me to be someone which I've never thought of; someone full of potential, and calibre who can contribute to the country one day. I ought to be that someone, and I really want to. I remembered you once said that you will come to visit us when we have successfully established our own companies in the future. Those are dreams that are yet to become a reality. I just hope to see you again in times to come. My memories of you will never fade. You're in my heart,always."

A joyful day

Finally the moment everyone is waiting for had arrived. i was still in school when the clock striked 12pm. that time,i was busy marking my students' test papers. my hands went numb and cold. my heart beats were so fast that i barely could breath properly. the time when i finish marking the last paper, i felt good and happy inside. my student got a perfect score for maths. how brilliant! =) i text my dad asking his whereabouts. thank goodness, he was at home. =)
"Dad,can u come to school later? I need your support. thanks!" i admit that i sounded babyish. but i really need him to be there when i get my results.

i packed my books,placed them into the rattan basket and made a move. i remembered my principal's cup of comfort: "It's already there. Worries can't change anything for the better neither for the worse too. Everything will be fine." i heed her words.

while on my way to school, i sang the song that goes like:

for You are great...
You are beautiful so great...
there is no one else like You...
there is no one else like You...

a very touching song that stirred up my emotions. i tried hard not to shed a tears as i knew that nothing could be changed. i felt worried,nervous,scared,all at once. somehow, i managed to ward off those feeling when i thought of what Jesus said in the book of Matt 6:34,
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."

just as i reached my school, i walked along the stretch of hilly road with a heavy heart. my mind were full of questions. "what will i get?" "what if i couldn't make it into local uni?" "how about my friends' results?" as i reached the notice board where the results are being displayed, i saw my classmate and asked her how was her result. she said she passed. i asked her mine 'cause i don't have the courage to see my result yet. she told me without hesitation that i passed.
"really?"
"yes. you see it now."
i cried.

my other classmates, i would like to call them; "The 4 Brilliants" were there and asked me whether i cried because i was happy or sad. i told them that i did not expect to get such results and it was beyond my expectations. i felt both grateful and thankful. i would say that this is truly a miracle! wow! =D i wish my friends "Congratulations" upon knowing that they got good results with pointer 3 and above. our hard work and effort were paid off handsomely. i'm very,very happy.=)

the words came true to me in the book of Matt 21:22 that says,
"Whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."

Lord, You're awesome! i'm amazed by Your works. Continue to bless my friends with more and more good things as they keep themselves on the track towards a brighter future!
my dearest friends, i hope i can still see some of you in uni later! keep in touch and strive hard in all the things that you do! All the best! =)
