Over the moon!!
I'm so over the moon! Tong Yang Lao Shi is back in town, finally after 5 years! I sure do miss him a lot, but I miss his wife, En Hua Lao Shi more. Will be having dinner with him this Wednesday together with some church memebers. Can't get to attend his sermon this sunday, by then I would be in Gula,Malaysia. En Hua Lao Shi didn't come along, I would really love to see her. Still can remember that faithful day...
I was waiting anxiously for En Hua Lao Shi to arrive, she said that she would be early for lunch, but she came late. Grandma and me went to airport early, and we met Pris and her cousins over there. I still can remember, when I saw her coming out of the church van, I ran all the way towards her.. When she left, I didn't wave good-bye to her, I just stood there and watch her go. Time flies, it's has been five years already! All of us has gorwn up and she and Tong Yang Lao Shi had a son named Hai Yang. I wonder if Tong Yang Lao Shi would still look the same. I'll pass him somethings to pass to En Hua Lao Shi and Hai Yang.
These two teachers have left deep footprints in me, touching and changing my life. Didn't had much impression of them untill En Hua Lao Shi taught my class for sunday school. Wasn't close to her at first, but we got close after a few months. She taught my class for 2 years and the half, before she has to go back to Myanmar. Lesson with her was always fun, Pris and me would rush down after Singspiration to the class room, sometimes even without our shoes.
Once, En Hua Lao Shi had a long chat with me, I was only 11 then. She told me a lot of things, when she and Tong Yang Lao Shi are getting married and stuff. We went to a church camp together and had a really fun time in her room! Haha, making prank calls, eating tibits, boy... That was fun! I missed those days..
Last lesson, as usual, me and Pris rushed down after singing. We saw her standing silently against a pillar, in deep thoughts. She didn't even notice that we were coming. Of course, me and Pris didn't know that was our last lesson with her, we were still smiling and happy. When she broke out the news, I was all stuned. I was the first one to cry, she hugged me. Bao Feng Lao Shi came in to talk, cause she was going to take over the class. She saw me and asked En Hua Lao Shi what happen to me. I can still remember she said that I was not feeling well. Thanks En Hua Lao Shi, for being understand, you have always been. When the lesson end, we prayed together.. She cried, broke down into tears, so did all of us. Me and Pris went to the toilet and after we came out, we saw her standing alone, drying her tears. I would never forget that moment. A dedicated teacher, who gave all she could. That's what I call, a real teacher.
Oh.. typing all this, just make me recall those wonderful memories. I miss her.. Haa.. A wonderful teacher. Over the years, we kept in contact through letters, looks like I am the only one left who is still writting to her.
Can't wait for Wednesday!!
