It was a sunny day today and had a chance 2 have an outing 2gether as a family. We had daddy as the secretary a.k.a cashier, mummy as the tour guide a.k.a itinery planner and me as the photographer… Haha…

We set off our house in Bukit Gombak at 8am, reaching the Delifrance outlet in Woodlands Causeway Point at 9am. After having a sumptuous breakfast of French toast for me and baguette for both my parents, we went to cold storage to get ourselves beverages before proceeding to our next destination. It was already 10.30am then. We were full from our breakfast meal and were just having a mini exercise in the basement cold storage.

Then, the next stop for us was the Singapore Zoological Garden. You may wonder, as a Typical Singaporean, haven’t you visited the zoo umpteen times? Why revisit it after your Secondary Graduation? My reasons are simply simple. I had a few chance 2 visit the zoo even during my secondary school years. For one, I would like 2 bring myself back down to the memory lane 2 those days. Secondly, I would like 2 c how much the zoo has changed since I last visited. I must admit that I had a much leisure time this time around.

Thereafter, after spending 5 hours in the zoological garden, we went to the Sizzler Restaurant in Toa Payoh of which we had our lunner (Lunch and Dinner). We had a great time. During that time, I also managed to lay my hands on a copy of 8 Days which I had not read for months…. I think I just moved myself from drool to cool…


After which, we went 2 the hair dresser in Chinatown where I got my hair cut! Oh ya… Almost forgotten, we went to IMM Jurong as our last stop before arriving home…. Had a really great time relaxing myself today BUT…. I did not feel right! Maybe I was just very used to the hectic lifestyle that I had since O Levels began…. I started asking myself ‘Could I turn back the clock?’


Anyway, whether or not I could turn back the clock is another issue. All I could say is that all our hardwork was really put to test during Os…. Those were the days… Now, all I want to say is a BIG BIG thank you to all my secondary school teachers. Thank you for walking through this secondary school years with me. It was definitely one of the most memorable ones that I had. I would also like to thank the teachers that had taken the opportunity to discipline me during my junior years, in Seconday 1 and 2. Although I had tried to improve in my upper secondary years, I bet I would still be a nuisance to some of my teachers. Anyway, I would like to specially thank my Secondary 3 form teacher Mdm Kaur for trusting me this much, allowing me to grow in leadership areas, as a class chairperson; My Lower Secondary Design and Technology, Upper Secondary Mathematics and Additional Mathematics teacher, Mr Alex Choh: Thank you for your patience that you had given me and thought me to have, the values that you have imparted to me for the past 4 years and the advices that you have given me at times where I needed them most; My Form teacher, Mr Sha: Thank You for your guidance for the past one year, though I am not your class chairperson and is only a NE Envoy, you have entrusted me with far more responsibilities that a NE Envoy should have; My Secondary 2 to 4 Chemistry teacher, Mr Tan EH: Thank you for waking us up, though I might not need it but you have taught us well; My Secondary 2 to 4 Physics Teacher, Mr Tan PY: Thank you for providing us with lots and lots of assessment materials that we could refer to and had even wrote one for us; To my Secondary 1, 3 and 4 Biology Teacher, Mdm May Phua: you have seen us from Secondary one, the moment we stepped into the school till we left, you have given us opportunities to learn from time to time and had even brought us to the tropical crops in the zoological garden to teach us about the way plants grow and in some sense reproduce, you have certainly brought life to the dull biology classrooms and labs;
