A long overdue letter
Dear Class,
As mid-year exams draws to a close, my current form class is preparing for sec 2 camp. It really brings back fond memories. I want to let you know the mere thought of the whole of last year would make my day. Oh my... did you watch those "showdown" advertisements on TV the past week? It was the same campsite!
I have been asking other teachers about your updates all these while. It seemed to me that most of you belong to the better part of your respective classes despite sec 3 being tough as most of you would agree. The most impressive part is the groups of 4-5 studying together at the canteen. Keep it up! Deng Ju especially... teachers are full of praises for you. The secret to knowing your subjects is a positive attitude... learn to enjoy your subjects and not let a few poor results affect your confidence. Indeed, when the confidence is there, you can do wonders.
Vincent! Family problems are no excuse, nothing in this world can stop you if you tell yourself "let me do my best" You are better than many of your current classmates, you can win most of them with one eye closed and the top pupil if you go full force. Don't short change yourself.
Khair, cannot concentrate? Study in the canteen. Still cannot study? I'll join you.
This post is also for those whom I somehow don't get to meet often. People like, Shahidin, Ridwan, Chairman, Hong Sheng, Kah Hui, Fara, Quraisyah... my memory isn't complete without you.
This post isn't meant to be too long... I can confidently say that in our collective memory, one question is enough to underline most of our thoughts (I may be too self-assuming here but I will take the risk):
"Where are you Phuong Anh?"
