Leaving

Seems like the person we love or like so much will leave us someday(I dun think it will be forever). This happened on me a few times already. Below are the ones I like so much and I'm missing them now.

1. When I was in primary five, my Maths teacher, Teacher Fatonah,  who were still under training, left SK Batu Lintang (my primary school) after a few months teaching(i dun remember the time she left). She's a very good Maths teacher. I can remember that she cried on the last day she's in SK Batu Lintang. :'|

2. In May 2008, my first Electone teacher, Mr.Lim, left Kuching and went to KL to teach. I was actually asking him whether can I replace my Electone lesson on friday in May or no.
What he replied me was he's not teaching in Yamaha Music School (in Kuching) since May. I was sad when I read the message cus he's really a nice teacher and I think he's the best music teacher I've ever had (maybe). I was even sadder when he told me that he's going to KL on 11th May (2008). Crying Well, I was wondering why is one of Mr.Lim's student giving him present at the end of our lesson until this day and I felt quite disapointed that I didn't know and I've not given him anything while he gave me so much (he played almost all the folio in NESC book 2 (textbook) for me so that I can listen to them and can learn by listening. I was sad when I pressed on the wrong thing and the songs he playe for me are all gone. Luckily I have enough trust on God already that time, so I wasn't as upset as the time I lost contact with Mr.Lim) In between, I remember that I smsed Mr. Lim almost everyday until the Mooncake festival 2008, I lost contact with him and I was so upset that I think I got depression (the depression dissapeared when my mom realised that I'd not spoken much to her for quite a long time and she spoke to me(I dun remember the time). I din tell her that I missed Mr.Lim, but she just gave me a lecture about not to keep too many secrets. I just asked her what I dun really understand and in the end of our conversation, I felt better. Thanks to my mom! Erm, Mr. Lim asked me that did the counter girls told me that he's leaving? he was playing "Stand By Me". So, the song "Stand By Me" is one of the song that brings me that memory.
P.S. I copy down all the messages he sent me cus they might be useful sometime and I won't lost them too. For example, for the use of blogging this blog. Next, some of his messages contains some information about Yamaha Music School's events such as Yamaha Concert, Yamaha Competition, JOC (Junior Original Concert) and many more.

3. Now, my primary 6's English tuition teacher in ELC, Ms Victoria, is leaving ASIA for further studies in UK. I'll miss her...:"| It all started in May, when I first read her blog about going to University. I sent a simple message about which university she's going and when's she going and I got the reply on 16 August. (She's about to tell me on 12 August but she was busy so she's gonna tell me when she's done with the thing she was busying with. I just waited while watching Pirates of the Caribbean 2. The electric current broke out before I finished watching the movie and also before Ms Victoria tells me anything.) She told me that week (2 weeks ago) was her last weekday class but she still had another 2 more working Saturdays before she's out of ELC. I was sad when I heard that. Sad I remember I asked her whether can I help her to tell her students whom I know about her leaving. She didn't want to get the news spreading like wildfire, so I din tell most ppl. I jz told Siang Ying, Shirley first and Hui Min and Faith on the last Friday Ms Victoria's teaching in ELC. (Sorry teacher. I broke the promise. I couldn't really stand of keeping this kind of secret cus it's a very big news, but no worries, I haven't let more than 6ppl to know about this.Angel) It was the 3rd day(Thursday) after I mentioned the news to Siang Ying and Shirley and we're planning to buy present for her. I was thinking of asking every Ms Victoria's student to write their profile in a piece of paper, and pass it to their school mates or to their classmate either in school or in ELC who knows my friends and my friends will pass them to me. But I thought that it's too complicated and it's not so good, so I gave up this plan. Next, I was thinking of buying ms Victoria some nice CDs, but I thought that neither 3 of us had the time to buy CDs and maybe the songs might not be meaningful, so I gave up this plan too. Finally, I thought of books.I was thinking of buying the Inkheart trilogies (3 books) but they cost too much, which my mom doesn't bring so much money. Next, I thought of buying The Lord of the Rings but my mom's won't allow me to buy it cz of the price, although it's cheap enough already. Finally, I thought of classical books--William Shakespeare's works. It's not expensive and I have some reasons of why did I choose this book:

  • William Shakespeare is one of the master of English and Ms Victoria taught me English.
  • William Shakespeare's works might be useful for Ms Victoria in the future either in learning or teaching.
Well, I was buying the book at the last minute and on the time I reached Popular Book Store, it's closing and I was quite nervous and at the same time, I believe God will help me at that moment. Finally, I bought the book and I chose the best and wrapping paper. I wanted Mickey Mouse's 1. but there wasn't any, but I saw that Winnie the Pooh's not bad, so I chose Winnie the Pooh. ^_^
* * *
When I reached home, I turned on my computer and I wrapped the book immediately and I typed a letter after I fished wrapping the book and I printed it out and put it together with the present ( I asked her that when will she be back and she replied: God knows when i'll be back. I asked for her home address and she said she'll email it to me when she reach her hom ein UK). Siang Ying tought that it's a box or anything else, cus it's rectangular and quite light. Too bad Shirley's busy with her Geography project and she couldn't go ELC. The time was a little too fast, so SEC1WAM students went out of the class so much earlier. Siang Ying and I went to Room 8 (the classroom where Ms Victoria's teaching) and knocked on the door, but we didn't open it and no one opened it until Ms Rosaline knocked on the door and opened it (she wants to talk to Ms. Victoria). I hid in the room beside room 8. I don't think Ms Victoria saw me and Siang Ying and Siang Ying gave me a signal but I told her 2 wait. She was opposite me, which means she's beside Room 8's door, by the notice board.I was there until she went away and I stood by the door again, talking with Siang Ying. (Teacher, I wonder did you heard any sound from outside. Well, I'm sure you heard the knocked on the door.) We just waited outside until 11am.
* * *
At 11am
Ms Victoria's saying good bye to her students. I hid at the same place again (I wasn't really giving her a surprise). Her students came out. I waited until all her students were out and I appeared in front of her. She's prepared some money for donation (I reminded her in the morning at 7:++ to bring money for PBSM donation) and ready to donate it. (Teacher, I know u donated more than RM10. Isit RM 20? 30? 40? or 50? Anyway, THANKS A LOT AGAIN FOR YOUR VERY GENEROUS DONATION! MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND HELP YOU ALL THE TIME!) Than, I gave her the book.I can tell that she's surprised. (hehehe...). So, the last solid thing I received from her is her very very generous donation. And the last solid thing I gave her is the book. ^^
*I'm glad that I didn't repeat the same mistake as last time (Mr. Lim's part).

In conclusion, I really/will miss them, especially when we've not contacted each other. Anyway, since I'm not in secondary school and it's no good for me to think too much about worrying these as it might affect my studies. Nevertheless, it's ok for me to think about them if I'm not studying like during school holidays. ;D At the same time, GOD BLESS THEM!
THE END!
