hello guys n gals... my 1st time blogging... hehe... nth much to say..
mayb for a start i ll post my farewell speech during form 5.. :)
A very good morning to the principal of SMK Methodist(ACS),Mr. Thong Kok Chaw, Senior assistant 1,Mr.Balaspramanim, Senior assistant In-charge of students’ Affair, Madam. Chuan Teik Mei, Senior assistant of cocuricular activities, Mr. Ng King Hiong, Head of Departments ,teachers and all my friends. I am really happy to be given this opportunity to give a speech for this farewell function. I truly am. :)
Well, my friends, I am here to share my experience in this wonderful school as a student, prefect, and scout. These 3 roles played a vital role in my life.
First of all, I would like to say that everyone means something to someone. This is true. Every single person in this hall has played an important role in another person’s life. The funny thing is many don’t know this. For example, the reason I got the courage to stand here, is not solely me. Apart from our parents, our role models, there are many people that change our life path, along the way. They can be our teachers, friends and even the gardeners. You never know. As along the way for myself, there is my teacher, Madam Ong Guat Sim, who created a turning point in my life by appointing me as the head prefect of the afternoon session 3 years back. My courage to stand here now comes from that change. As a friend, well, there is Jim Yang, he is always there to give me moral support and push me in my duties, get me to join games, sports, cocurricular activities and nearly everything else. The best part is that they are the main reasons for the change in me, but they are only 30% the reason I am here. The other 70% is from all of you, from other teachers, friends, clerks, security guards and even the ‘kakak’ who keeps the school clean. The support and cooperation I got from all of you while carrying out my duties provided me with the right exposure I needed to develop myself.
My friends, apart from what I just told you all, I have a piece of advice to offer to you all, that is, never jump to conclusions or make assumptions. Never, never, never!!!!! What I mean is that you can’t judge a person by the first time you look at him/her. For example, you can’t tell that that fellow is bad and don’t follow school rules when you saw him throwing rubbish for the 1st time. That may be the 1st time he did that or he didn’t do that on purpose. He may have a good reason and it is up to us to find out and correct him. We will never know. This goes to everyone,including teachers, schoolmates and anybody.
Our principal has made many changes in our school. There is a futsal court now, a bigger library to name a few. He is trying his best to make ACS a better place to be. He is. But there are some of us who will still say he does this and that unfairly, and all kinds of unfair comments. Well, everyone is not perfect; he is dealing with nearly 2000 people in our school. That is not easy, trust me. It is how you look at the situation and how much facts you have got, which causes you to comment positively or negatively. So check your facts first and judge fairly. From my point of view, I believe that our pricipal is doing well and that he has good intentions for our school and I am sure our principal, Mr. Thong will continue to do his best for the school, teachers and students. I am sure!!!!
My friends, anyone can change for the better, the only thing is when?? Any rascals in our school can be leaders in their future. But when?? That’s a big question. I would say in due time, with the help of someone, with the right advice and coaching. Students sometime can be little mischievous and naughty. I apologize on behalf of anyone in this batch of students who have hurt the feelings of teachers. They don’t mean it. Sometimes they are just trying to have fun, sometimes a bit too much. As for the ACS teachers, teachers got to trust the student, think from their angle at times. Having a little fun when learning, can make the learning more effective, I think. Dear teachers, you never know that one person’s life can change to wonders because of you. Teachers who like to smile, keep smiling, you brighten up someone’s day daily. Teachers who seldom smile, try smiling, it may even change your life. Really!!!!
So, my friend, I hope all of you got my point. There is a wild world out there, and we have to thrive to be the best. Sometimes, you can’t be the best, but by trying to be the best, you get better. So, start thriving now!!!!
Good luck my dear friends and teachers!!! This school will always be in my heart. All the wonderful memories will never disappear from me. Farewell….. Thank you, terima kasih, nandri, sieh sieh………
so... tats all i guess for now..
hope every1 is happy alwiz... :)
