i was just walking around compass point, looking for gifts for my kids.. and so, i happened to be in mini toons... guess who i saw? it's Stanley! i taught Stanley when i was in year 2, in my attachment(NTUC)... it's been a long time since i see him because he didnt attend the NTUC year-end grad concert which i went... i taught him since he was in K1 and now, he's going to primary.. yes, time flies...
anyway, i spotted him first... he was walking nearer and nearer to me... i'm not the type that will just call out his name unless i have a reason... haha... instead, his mother was the first to know i was just in front of him... ya.. so, i was just blocking his pathway and he looked up.. he glanced at me and then looked down again... but later, he looked up at me again and called out "Hello Teacher Joey" in a very shy and soft-spoken voice... he's so shy la... then i said "Hi Stanley" and continue searching for my gifts... it's a very funny feeling i was feeling as i kept smiling at myself... that was how delighted i felt... he's like one of the sweetest child in my class and always brighten up my day... ya... so, i kept smiling and i kept hearing my name behind my back somewhere... obviously it's him... hahhaha... it's like "i saw my teacher... i saw teacher Joey..." then, as i was queueing up to pay my gift, i heard "teacher Joey left already?" in chinese.. hahaha... and, before i left the shop, he spotted me and he was like "AH!" and as i looked back, he smiled so shyly, waved at me and said "Byebye"... ohh... that was so sweet...
