Easter Day post

very thankful for the public holiday today, because i can take a break at home. last week was the march holidays and i am really glad to recharge during that week, even though i went back to the workplace almost everyday to meet up with parents who missed the Meet Parent Session on 11 mar. on 11 mar that evening, the Meet Parent Session only ended at 1030 pm. omg. the professionalism of the teachers at the workplace never fails to amaze me. i am thankful to my colleague who replaced me because i was dancing for Space. Time. Mind. 

on wednesday i received a piece of shocking news. my ex colleague, Ms Marianne Wong, passed away on tuesday. 

ms marianne wong is at the right side of the picture, wearing a pink top, purple skirt, red necklace and a black pullover. 

ms wong teaches english and food & nutrition. she is a very happy and positive teacher, who enjoys singing. she always hums in the staffroom, and she was a member of the staff welfare committee, and when we celebrate colleagues' birthdays, she will gladly hold the mic and lead all of us to sing birthday songs. 

in 2014 she left tpss to join ngee ann sec as ngee ann sec needs food & nutrition teachers. the last time i saw her was last year, when she visited tpss. she happened to also be one of the teachers in-charge for dance, and hence she knew derek seong, and told me that derek sing high praises of me. 

yesterday i went to the wake. saw my ex colleagues there. as well as my ex students. students from ngee ann sec were there too. 

rest in peace ms wong. thank you for always being so cheerful.
