Emotions triggered after meeting up with an ex-colleague

Met up with an ex-colleague to celebrate her birthday and mine. We went through some really memorable times in my previous school context and the many situations we had made us closer. Some things that time can never take away, but may wash out or make them fade. But never erase.

She said I looked much younger and that all the dark shadows around my eyes have disappeared and I joked that I am having a darn good time in CGS. Actually, I am. And I feel very blessed that I accepted Mrs Eugenia Lim's offer to come to this school. Boon Keng is a great mentor and supervisor. Siew Huang, Eileen and Leo are great comrades and companions - it helps that they sit in the same staffroom - endless banter.

I think about how these past months in CGS has rejuvenated me and given me the time and space to try out new things and I know I have not made the wrong decision to join the school.

To my ex-colleage (I am sure she knows who she is), I want to thank you for the times we had spent reminiscing about what we went through in SST. Those were exciting, tiring and illuminating times in my life and I thank you for your friendship.
