First Day of School
i had no idea what to do on my first day of school.i couildnt sllep the night before the big day.millions of thoughtswnt through my mind.scary-looking teachers to fierce-looking seniors.i was excited at the same time worried what was going to happen the following day.
as i reached the schoool compound,my first thought was to look for a familiar face so i would accompany.i still couldnt see any familiar person after a long time.buti had notied a couple of situations going around the school.i can easily identitfy these people and classify them though all are in the same uniform.students who are slighty vertically challenged who look worried like me are obviously a newcomers in this school.so me even have their parents or guardian accompanied.as expected,i manage to walk passed a groups of hooligans reluctanly.fortunately i didnt create any trouble and 'escaped' from them.it was a close shave.
during the briefing by the principle ms chamb,her lovely smile made me feel a sense of warmth from the school.her speech to us,secondary ones was meaningful.and that sweet,motherly toneshe uses to welcome us was heavenly.she went through all the important values and school motto.it took her a long while as her presentation included lots of interesting facts and she presented it loud and clear.later we had the vice-principal to give us a speech.followed by a briefing on the school's rules and regulations by mr koh,the disciline master.his appearance gave me an impression of a sportsman.he later had the school to have a round of attire check.those senior i met ealier had been called back for punishment.i guess this is secondary school life.
Coooooookiess!
