A Trip Back to TPJC



It's been a few months since I last visited TPJC, and I came back again. This time, I hope to meet the teachers I have not met during my last visit. I went back with Sabrina during yesterday visit, and it really brings back her memories back in JC times. We went around the whole classroom blocks to look for her teachers, and then we found Mrs Foong first in the canteen, having her lunch with Mr Liew.

It was really nice that she still remembered who were in Sabrina's class and asking her how are they right now. From Mrs Foong's smile, I can really see that she was really happy to us coming to visit her. However, we could only chat for a short 5 minutes before she rushed off for another class.

Next, when we were going to the Staff Room, I finally found my Civics Tutor, Mr Au Chee Ping! He was also happy to see me, he asked me whether I'm still in contact with the class and whether we still hang out together. My answer is Yes and No. Yes, I still in contact with some of them. No, I never went out with them at all. Then, we talked a bit about what am I going to do in the future and that's it. He just wanted to have a quick lunch and to go home and rest, complaining that he was very tired. Haha.

Next, we found Sabrina's Chinese teacher, Mr Wong Yew Hong outside the Staff Room. We just chatted for a few seconds as he was busy trying to "enlighten" his students. Then, we moved on to the Staff Room looking for her Civics Tutor, Mrs Lee Saw Hong, the famous bullet-train speaker. It was really weird though, because 3 of us can chat so happily when I'm not even taught by her. Moreover, she did not even realised that I'm not from her class too.

We talked lots of things, especially Sabrina's Uni Life, the pros and cons of staying in the hostel, the Electives, etc. It really seemed that we have talked for a very long time, but only 20 minutes have gone and Mre Lee had to rush for a meeting.

We walked here and there around the campus later on, and she have not found her Biology teacher, Ms Leo, but then she decided to go home. However, my "mum" wanted me to wait for her, and there was still quite a lot of time left, and so I accompany Sabrina to 201 to look for a wire that connects her labtop to her TV. Surprisingly, the shop is closed, which never happened whenever we walked past the shop. In the end, I sent her home and went back to TPJC.

Ms Agnes Yue (My "mum"), brought me and Mr Tan Chee Boon and Mr Wong Yew Hong to Big Splash @ East Coast Park to have a taste on the restaurant opened by Mark Lee named "Old Town White Coffee" at first. But in the end, we went the European Restaurant next to him named "Mingles" to have sausages and ice-cream! The meal was indulgingly nice. Maybe some other times, I can bring Wilson there, he will love it! Haha.

Ms Yue dropped us Bedok, and then Chee Boon pulled me along to shop with him at the shophouses. It was really amazing that he could actually shop for so long at Bedok. We shopped for nearly 2 hours! He bought a Pokemon Diamond and Pearl Movie DVD, a LG non-camera phone, and magazines. We went home at around 7.30pm.
