TPJC, thank you and goodbye! (By Yang Zhixing)

TPJC, thank you and goodbye!

Dear classmates in 10S06:
How’s school recently? Did you have fun with the camp?
I really enjoyed staying with you guys these two weeks. Although the joyful time was short and flowed very fast, I learned a lot of things from you, including knowledge, attitude and friendship; I shall cherish them forever in life! This is a letter for you. Thank you for your hospitality and wish you all the best!
I could hardly tell how reluctant I was when leaving school on the last day. Lingering in my mind were so many pieces of beautiful memories: the morning moonlight, the school bus, “Titanic” (vivid name ha), pleasant Singlish (though couldn’t understand), the piano, Kanon, and most impressive, your smiling faces!
Here are some words I want to say to you:
Zhi Jun, you’ve been very considerate and warm-hearted. I won’t sleep in class anymore J besides, you behaved very well in class, both active and thoughtful. By the way, is the cup nice? You will achieve your goal, eventually. See you in NUS!
Edwin, such a funny friend who always makes your friends laugh. You and Ewan are very knowledgeable and have a clear understanding of the things, which impressed me~
Elizabeth, the whole school is often filled with your laughter. Just keep smiling and laughing loudly and continue to enjoy your life!
Ewan, you are so passionate when talking in front of the class. I like your way of speaking, though I couldn’t understand a single thing…haha…
Jeremy, I know you are trying to defend the nation with a stick. You are a tough man. You will make it... I like your Chinese composition. Maybe in the future you have some questions in Chinese language, you can contact with me.
Pin Kwang, thanks for your sharing of physics and maths. You are sooooooo smart and knowledgeable. I still remember the stupid fly with a speed of 1km/h…funny…I’ll try to find a circle-gear-ruler.
Shi Ying, gentle and quiet girl…you are also my buddy. Thanks for taking care of me when Zhi Jun disappeared, LOL…
Shu Jun, the funny cute bubble thing… hope to see it again in your microscope (: Your handwriting is brilliant!
Xinyun, you are doing well and all you need to do is continuing to work harder, and that can make things happen. Be a little nicer to Jeremy, the poor boy…LOL again~
Yu Jing, I’ve been hoping to canoe with you, but the chance never came, what a huge pity! You are also very thoughtful in class. You are becoming stronger and stronger!
Here are some important lessons I learned during these two weeks:
First, we should care more about the world and what’s happening to us, and we must learn solving the practical problems instead of just mastering theoretical knowledge. In your GP and PW classes, I surprisingly found that the teachers lead you to recognize the real society and show you latest magazines and essays on current affairs. This is definitely better than simply learn the concepts from boring text books.
Second, I have made great progress in my English, but there’s still a long journey before I can fully understand your Singlish. It’s interesting and essential to master English, or Singlish. I bought a book recently named An essential guide to Singlish. The next time you see me, I wish I will be able to communicate with you more fluently.
Third, manage time correctly. We got up very early, perhaps the earliest ever during our stay in Singapore. So it’s important for us to do things efficiently in order to save time.
Forth, I should be more expert in Science. The lessons students learn in JC was difficult for me. I should improve both in English and specific knowledge. Do it right now and I’m sure to harvest tomorrow. The same goes for you!

Now still ringing in my ears is the very last farewell of your whole class. How I wish to have classes with you again! TPJC, thanks and goodbye.
