school has been a worthwhile experience to me

I'm now in the 13th year of my school life, at the end of this year i'll be sitting for the all-important STPM examination. If I do weel, i might further my study to university and beyond. whatever it is, i have to admit that i'm now in the verge of adulthood and soon i have to make my own way through life. some people said, when we make mistakes, there are only 3 things we should ever do about it. admit it, learn from it and dont repeat it. that is totally true.. i've learned so many things in my 13-years of school life. while my other friends had already ended their school life, i decided to add-on another 2 more years just to sit for the STPM. i dont know whether i've made a wise decision or not because when thing go tough during this additional two years, i sometimes regret for being here... but what else can i do. just finish it off and see the results.

Talking about school, i can still remember the first day i stepped into Puchomg Utama (1). my mum bought an apartment in puchong so i have to move here...i was forced, to be precised.. hard for me to leave my previous school, SMK Ideal heights. everything seemed to be very different to me. new teachers, new friends, and new environment.. everything was just like a new world. then, i began to feel alienated and isolated. day to day, time to time, i started to befriend many students... some of them were resourceful and outstanding in academic while some were cheeky, ballyhoo, arrogant yet still appealing.. huhu. thats the reality, a school i s a place where many people of diverse cultures and attitudes covered on to. The same atmosphere i have to face when i moved into SMK Batu Lapan..well maybe a little bit different here because the race division is not balanced.for example, most of my classmates are chinese and indians..i am the one and only malay girl. undeniably, it was kind of hard for me to cope with this situation at first.. Just imagine ,listening to mandarin on your left and tamil on your right..huhu. but things go smooth after we know each other... tak kenal maka tak cinta right?? i am going to leave SMK Batu Lapan at the end of 2008 and i'm not feeling good about that after a very harmonious bond has been created between my friends and I..its just too hard to leave.

Talking about teachers, i found out that some teachers behave terribly. the teachers in this school are not different from my previous school. but no matter how the way they behave, they are still in the same boat. they have their own mission in order to build a respectable generation.. To me, a teacher is someone like superman...a known-all, a much feared and a respected figure, a good teacher is kind, not bias and not prejudiced. she or he does not care about the colour and racial differences but treats all of her pupils equally well. she does not favour any child more than another but everyone is the apple of her eyes.

school has been a worth-while experience to me.. for all my friends and teachers whom have helped mould a person i am today, i have only one thing to say.. that i will remember you in the most dearest way. thank you
