Farewell 4 Zuhrah

Today, I have to say goodbye to my class, 4 Zuhrah, because of my added duties as acting Head of Dept for Languages. I was rather surprised at the emotions and outbursts by the class. I certainly did not expect that response....I didn't know I was that important to them...Although I feel a heavy heart, it is better than leaving the school entirely for another posting. I guess I can understand their feelings. It's not that I won't be seeing them entirely but it marks the beginning of the end of something we have created the past one and half years together. The memories of Form 3, the frantic preparations, the yelling, the emotional roller coasters of exams, the success, sweet success...Then, somehow, they have suddenly grown up overnight and as we meet again in Form 4, we now have a quiet understanding and they see the more relaxed side of me...And I see the trust in their eyes in my ability to guide them to success. And 2009 has been great thus far, the beautification of the classroom cum APD, the air-conditioners project which people deemed almost impossible...So, it is rather difficult to hand it all to someone else. Well, that's life. Sometimes, you have to leave behind some people and things and you have to move on. And sometimes, you never know you gonna miss someone till they are no longer there...Well, I certainly will not forget you all. Till we 'meet' again...
