When Miss Loi reminisces about all the years
She sees many things.
There were little victories and jubilation.
Sweet little victories #olevel #olevel2016 #olevelresults #olevels
but also uncertainties and trepidation.
There was laughter and lame jokes, and sometimes ice cream.
Lame puns and ice cream #olevels #olevel #olevelresults #olevel2016 #olevels2016
There were moments of Darkness
through which many have strode
And there were also tears.
But to her, these were but parts of a bigger Journey.
After all, whenever Miss Loi reminisces about the years,
She didn’t quite remember the grades
The annual oohs and ahhhs #olevel #olevels #olevel2016 #olevels2016 #olevelresults
Nor the mighty grade jumps
Some of the athletic high jumpers of 2016 #olevels #olevel #olevelresults #olevel2016 #nlevel #nlevels #nlevelresults #nlevel2016
For with the passage of time
the mightiest of results will wither alike the least.

The memories that lived on
Were of those who had managed to turn around
All along, that “You” was actually YOU *points finger in your direction* #olevel #olevels #olevelresults #reflections #lifehacks
Of those who managed to replace the “Up” in “Give Up” with “Your Best”
Replacing the “Up” in “Give Up” with “Your Best” #lifehacks #lifehack #olevels #olevel #olevelresults #reflections
And of those who were enlightened to far more important things
Beyond the exams, syllabus and ten-year series #lifehacks #olevels #olevel #olevelresults #reflections
So here we are, 10 years on …
Exams have come and gone.
Imaginary futures terrorised and appeased.
“Shooting stars never stop, even when they reach the top.” #olevel #olevels #wishes
*Even as Miss Loi pens the last words of a dying chapter that began a decade ago
Judgment Day 2016 will soon be forgotten
Swept away like eraser crumbs in a battle hall
Thank you one last time too #tutor #tuition #olevel #olevels #postolevels #olevelresults #tutorlove
Yet Life goes on, like an echo in the wind.
Veiling greater deeds that are yet to come
By which all shall, and should, be judged.
Hoping with all my ❤️ everyone will find their ❤️ and do what they ❤️ in the future #olevels #olevel #olevelresults #postolevels #afterolevels
For this is how we should be remembered.
For this is who we are.
We. Are. Influencers. #nuffsaid #tutors #tuition #teacher #teachers #tutorlife #teacherlife
*This post was written during the brief respite known as Chinese New Year, before Miss Loi gets drawn back to her neverending hurly-burly life of joss sticks sessions. Meanwhile have a happy 2017 everyone!
