Last day of school...
I dont feel sad, pretty emotionless. It has ended as quickly as it had begun. Probably reality hasnt set in for me yet. AJC has given me so many memories, so much invaluable experiences and here is where i have grown the most. CHS is where i built my charatcter and AJ is where it was tested. My very core values and views and life shaken and tested throughly. Now i get a better idea of who i am, what i am, where i am in this vast world.
The slackers gave me the warmest and loudest welcome to JC life. Havoc as we were, the stress and incredible amount of workload deeply humbled most people. Never ever was i so hardworking yet not getting any results. Puzzling isnt? Never happened to me b4.
Guitar club is the place where i was able to express myself sometimes and given space to develop my interest in guitar. Opportunities given by Mdm Khoo to let me perform on stage n most importantly, accepted me even though i had an external CCA. A bunch of great fun loving people. SYF was special indeed. Endured months of training. Blood sweat n tears for the toil and pain for the one final performance... And i'll nv 4get the concert grp ppl too. Those sessions w me in preparation for the concert. Sure i was laughed at when i tried to convey a musical msg across but it worked! lolx
23/04 is the one thing i will probably miss most. For i never really had and enjoyed staying in a class in sec as compared to them. The many ups and downs we went thru' tgt, getting tossed n turned around as we barely pulled through a turbulent JAE period. Friendships forged are bonds that will nv be broken. I have too many words for them, all unspoken for it is better felt than said.
Lastly our fortune of having such fantastic teachers.
-Mr Lim whose dedication n hardwork in preparing for lessons for students is truely commendable.
Giving advice n keeping cool n for singing in class. haha!
-Mr Soh who never fails to tell a cold joke on a very cold day and frequently bringing us to the comp labs for lessons to hide away from the terrible heat
.
-Ms Lee. Her lessons are forever engaging.. well.. most of the time at least. The jokes that rarely draw laughter except for her drawing that is equivalent to a pri 5 kids. Lolx. And how to forget her pretty trendy and fashionable dresses lyk an umbrella skirt, a very cropped jacket, Shoes that has a flower on only one foot(The other one dropped out.!) etc
- Last but not least...... Mr Paul Tham. Whose effort n guidiance n concern about the class is unparralleledd in every aspect. He though me one valuable lesson - to never give up hope n always keep the faith. It was this faith in us that saw us through our worst times as a class and this hope that kept us going on. His love for our class can never be underestimated, the depth of it will never be known to us but one is certain of the sacrifices he has made for us. It is a shame that things ended this way. What have we done to deserved such things from a man?
His last wishes for us:
That we will be taken care of and by the ones we love
That we will respect and be respected those we work with
We are all a better person already. Thank you for touching out lives

Features an abstract- floral digital artwork drawn by me in photoshop. This layout is appropriate for all genders. The grandiose design is laid freely on a simple canvas and they complement each other pretty well. The sudden gradient change is applied to create one contrasting element. I created a 3D effect on the vines and they seem to jut out of the yellow canvas.
Why the name? The design, as you can see, is abstract and it gives a double-vision feel, therefore, Esophoria, a tendency to squint your eyes inward to create a double vision.
