What had happened yesterday had proven that I was wrong.
I thought that actually Hillgrove does not mean much to me. Its just a place where I completed my secondary education and graduated.
But yesterday was definitely a meaningful one as I had realised that I was wrong all this while. Went back to Hillgrove Secondary School yesterday to collect my cert and testimonial with Xinyi. When in the office waiting to collect our yr book, after having paid the money, saw Ms Chew walking into the office and said HI to her. She looked really tired. Then she looked at my results and she went inside.
After that, me and Xinyi decided to go up to our former classroom to take a look of how has it changed. Then saw Ms David at the corridor near the library. We starting calling for her on the way walking towards the library. It was only when we were standing beside her and calling Ms David that she turned around and said 'What?' Haha, she was rather shocked to see us. Then she told us to say hi to all the others teachers, since they were in a meeting and will be out soon.
Think its coz we went back on this rather normal school day that gave the teachers a surprise. Shan't talk much about this coz its just some casual chat with the teachers & principal & vice principal.
Then we went up to the second level. Ah ha, then Mr Ho brought us into the staffroom. Great! Aircon! Its really hot outside. But didn't see Mdm Chan in school.
But I heard some rumors. I was rather sad after hearing that. Just found out that it was untrue from my friend.
Hmm, guess it wasn't the right day to go back yesterday, coz I didn't see Mdm Chan. After so many months, I thought that I could really forget her, but I realised that I can't. When I didn't see her yesterday, I was sad. I still regard her as my favourite teacher, and even my role model.
Well, yesterday's trip back to Hillgrove really brought a lot of memories back! It was then that I realised that Hillgrove was not just a place that I studied and graduated. It was also a place where I left my footprints and my memories behind that could never be erased! No matter where am I, my memories in Hillgrove stays! It was also a place where captured my joy, my laughter and even my tears! It was also where I studied hard and played hard and graduated together with my peers. It was also where I used to bother my teachers, be it school work or non-work related stuff.
Actually, all my memories stays! Be it with teachers, friends, peers or even the building! I finally realised how much I really missed my principals, teachers and friends. And how much I really wished that I could go back and help out during my Poly semestral break for 7 weeks.
Principals, teachers and friends of Hillgrove, Thanks for all the memories you have given me! I will always remember you!
I was here at 6:43 PM
