...so why are you still here?
...so why are you still here?
Hey pretty girls and handsome boys, I bet the title grabbed your attention. Please take a few minutes to read this post till the end. It’s touching and it contains inspirational and motivating words from our teachers.
PROMOS IS ROUND THE CORNER!
Knowing that this is a crucial period where students face stress, uncertainty and worries, I have collated some encouragement messages from our beloved subject tutors and civic tutor. I hope these messages will be able to motivate us and spur us on!!
Captain Loy (being an avid Chemist):
Dear S72s,
尽全力努力争取像话的成绩！加油了！
(For those who are unable to understand this Chinese message, especially true for those CLL students, the translation is as follow: Do your best and fight for “not-too-ugly” marks! Add oil!)
In order to do well, reactant molecules must:
(1) encourage one another,
(2) have a never-give-up-attitude,
(3) get sufficient rest the night before each exam, so that they have sufficient energy & a clear mind to overcome any barrier at the time of the exam.
Do your best!
Ms Tsang:
Dear 09S72,
All the best for your studying and exams. Work hard, get enough sleep and ace the promos!
Cheers,
Miss Tsang
Mr Denson Lo:
Students in 09S72 are brilliant. (Premise)
Those who have not been doing well in their GP have not reached their full potential. (Premise)
Those who have not reached their full potential will have an epiphany before their GP paper. (Premise)
09S72 will ace their promotional exams. (Conclusion)
Although the argument above contains a glaring fallacy (fallacy of presumption), I still hold the hope that all of you will become the best you can be, and somehow, was inspired one way or another by GP. Remember, learning is not about the end result, but the journey, of the laughter and noise all created in class, the topics debated and issues explored, the knowledge you have acquired that have shaped you as a student in Hwa Chong. It has been a hell of a year (and a ride) with you guys, and at the end of the day, it was my absolute pleasure to have the honour of teaching your class.
All the best for the upcoming promotional exams!
Mr. Lo
PS: Even an encouragement message can be so GP-ish! Sweet!!
Mrs Eileen Tan (Our beloved PW teacher):
Specially for 09S72,
Here’s ALL my Best Wishes and lots and lots of luck for you!! Jia You!! You can do it!!
From your favourite, one and only, PW teacher :)
Mrs Eileen Tan [The BEST Econs Teacher (IMO lah ...) VERTICAL SUPPLY CURVE]:
Dedicated specially to all ECONs students of 09S72:
It has been great teaching you lot. There are many interesting characters in your class and you are a nice bunch to any Econs teacher (dun tell the rest of the tutors cos they will get jealous that I have you--:p)
Well, it has been quite a journey and I hope you enjoy Econs lessons plus the older and slightly less interesting companion. I hope you will outperform yourself in promos as compared to the last block test. So stay focused and all the best! See you after promos.
Cheers
Mrs Eileen Tan
Mr Ken Yeow (he sneakily left a message on the tagboard. MR YEOW ARE YOU GONNA SING AFTER PROMOS?):
09S72 - All ze best for your Promos! (",)
PS: Short and sweet, he isn’t short but he’s definitely sweet!!
Likewise, the other subject tutors who aren’t in this post also send their best wishes to the class!!! :D:D:D:D:D

I discovered friendship, fun and perseverance (inside joke: cost 1750gold) when I entered 09S72!
