A night of bliss and joy.
Last night at the Renaissance we had fun meeting up with friends and ...ex students.Yes it is good to see Jeremy Lok of 2000, Benjamin Lim 0f 2003 and my old memory failed to recall others.It is again during such occasions that we get together to wish one another well and be happy for ourselves.
So now who is the next blissful couple?
So petite and pretty, Wai Yen an ex-Sefieldian is now married!
Wai Yen is daughter to her mother; Looi Chui Yean. Mother and daughter can enter a look-alike competition and they will win.
This is Benjamin Lim.
He was also the star of the night among his teachers. He wormed himself into a seat next to all his favourite teachers...Ms Goh and Madam Daisy; both his mentors in his form 6 days. He is a good boy. Why you may ask? He is not shy of his teachers anywhere, anytime.He makes himself available for them and treats them with care and respect. That's what Puan Periachee tod me as he was extra helpful making sure she was comfortable and getting a chance to have her blood tested when she visited Universiti Hospital some time ago. Dr. Benjamin Lim is a true son of the school.He told me he already has a girlfriend. Good for him.
But most touching of the evening was when I saw Puan Malar asking the 3 boys; Dr. Benjamin Lim (extreme left), Dr. Lee Kin Hun, and Dr. Lee Kin Mun to stand beside her for a shot. She has the absolute right because she was their Biology teacher ! Now you know why a teacher indeed has a story to tell behind the success of a child.Both Kin Hun and Kin Mun are brothers to the bride; sons to the mother of the bride.What a proud day for Madam Looi !
Look at the beautiful photo of teachers and students...beautiful because of the story behind it.
Teachers feel happy to see happy proteges.
The bride could not stop herself from taking a photo with all her teachers.
This has been an evening of teachers' affair.
When you have a mother for a teacher you have teachers on your wedding dinner too.
Wai Yen expressed her heartfelt thanks to her parents for their sacrifices and hard work in working long and hard hours to give them an overseas education.She touched many with her few sincere words.
Congratulations Wai Yen and Thon Hon.
