2008 - People that have shaped my 2008.
Auntie Linda
Not just for this years, over the years, you have been the light and the salt for me. I thank God for allowing you to mentor, more so after I have graduated from JC.
You have always been a role model to me, so focused and yet so warm at the same time. You seem to read my mind, you seem to know what I am thinking even without me saying it.
Over the years, I have learned much from you, (I hope). I will still continue to learn from you.
Benji
It is a chapter of life that I wish I could have written it in a better way. You had been such a good brother to me, taking care of me, how you have showed much tolerance towards me. even to the extent of spoiling me. Still remember, you question the possibility of you getting me spoilt. Ha…But I guess, we are just too different. Now that we are friends, I feel more natural. Thanks for walking into my life.
Bill Gother
I would say many important decisions that I have made was actually under his influence. He is a stranger to me, yet his wisdom is splendid. I went for your seminar, never in my life would I imagine myself attending something like that. Yet, you have caused my relationship with my parents and boss to be better. I thank God for you dedication to His service.
Cheryl
My housemate. Still remember that you were my HM, checking me into OH. Knowing you as a housemate has changed my perspective towards cool people like you. You didn’t talk much, you still don’t talk much to any people. Thanks for praying for me, thanks for being there when I want to grumble, thanks for having me to stay with your family, they are lovely.
Chin Yee
fellow AHM, my AHM, my mentor in handling issues in OH.
It has been tough. You are a transparent person, your emotions are always written on your face. There are time that I will siam from your black face. Nonetheless, is kinda cool to be truthful to oneself. Ha.
Thanks for taking care of me whenever possible. Thanks for inviting me to be your white mouse when you cooked, your food tastes nice! Thanks for being an encouragement to me.
There was once a rumour saying that you were leaving, Ricky and I felt like leaving….A lot of people have left, so, please don’t leave abruptly.
Christabel
If Andrew has not left, I guess we may not have been close friends. I guessed, this year has been tough for you as well., with “your that friend’ and all other things that has caught us off guard. There are people who have warned me against you, I guess they are worried that we would get together or something like that. Hmm… How is that possible? So no worries, k ( sounds like me speaking to myself)
Thanks for sharing your life with me for the past few months or so. I hope I have been a help to you.
Dr. Tan
If every Chinese teacher is like you, Singapore will embrace the language. You are my favourite Chinese teacher, because you are able to inspire. You have inspired me to be more than a language teacher, your lessons have definitely widened my horizons in terms of how teaching can be done. All the best for your new post.
Grace
I think we have done a lot of funny things together, performing without knowing the song well, talking rubbish whole day long. You are a fun friend, but you have moved on. All the best Grace. When you come back, let’s meet up k.
Matthew
You have been a good influence to me. And it has been interesting enough to know you as a close friend. We have stayed under the same roof of OH for 2 years plus, it is only till this year that I got know you. Your BPR is accurate to say that you have widened your social circle. Thanks for being there when I needed someone to hear me rant, thanks for ranting to me. Thanks for being so mature at such age. Thanks for -- befriending
Sharon
Thanks for being there for me when Andrew left, your encouragement have helped me to go through the that period. Thanks for also guiding me in teaching in CF. This is my first year, and I am glad that I have you as my partner, someone that is so seasoned that I can learn from.
I shall help you to baby-sit Asher more often. I hope I have a free day for next semester.
Siew Geok
Thanks for always giving me the positive side of the coin. You have been strong in your character. I thank God for your life. This year has not been easy for you as well, but in the midst of all these, it is as if God is showing me that I need to persevere and trust in Him even when the storms arise.
Xiao Wei
You are like everybody’s personal assistant. Thanks for being a good friend in school. Thanks for going home with me. I wish you all the best with all the commitment that you have gotten yourself into, It is in you to be so selfless, give yourself a break when you need it, k? cheersLabels: 友, 心
