Wah lau!

Suddenly I was thinking about what is in store in 2010
Will it be a year of economic booms all over the world, after the world bank had announced that the world economy is returning to normal.

Will it be a year of uncertainty with the recent uncessary chaos in the country?

How will my students fare, given the new seating position in class. Will they be accustomed to the new setting?

Will 47% of As from the 2009 cohort be maintained or even be higher?

Will I be more God fearing after what had happened and knowing that we are but frail creatures on this planet earth, trying to impress each other with the little that we know about this universe.

I have always reminding myself that we are too small and know too little to be boastful, bossy, proud, high and mighty etc... about oneself.

Wanna feel stupid, very simple, just walk into a library full of books and find out how much that we dont know as compared to that little that we know.

There is a chinese hokkien saying the goes like this:

"chiak ka lau, ork ka lau" = " as we grow older, we still keep on learning"

So folks, always remember that if u think u are good, there is always someone better than you.

That is why I believe in updating, change and so on...

Above picture shows graduating student Lanette and myself at Sunway Hotel in Nov 2009. Everytime after the prom night, I will be in this 'Wah Lau' mood.
