ANGLO-CHINESE-SCHOOL (BARKER ROAD) was the place that made me me. Believe it or not. Much of which was also from my parents but its not time to reveal all. Yesterday, i went back to barker for a gathering. A gathering of the 7 years. 7 years meaning the first 7 batches which have graduated from there. I miss that place dearly and so many things have changed. The new campus is just awesome. Seriously awesome. If you dun think so just visit the actual school or www.acsbr.net. The dinner was worth every cent. I got hold of a few friends whom just disappeared after secondary school.
I look upon the school as more than a few chapters in my life. Many wonder how the ACS spirit never dies. I cant explain this to you. All i can say is that i am the first generation ACS boy and there is not a tinge of doubt in my head that my son will be a second generation ACS boy.
My principal still remembers many of us. He was surprised that i had short hair. haha. Such memories flood back. Most of my batch have been in the army for more than a year. Mostly officers and sergeants. I have a long way to go since i have taken the poly route. A route of many obsticles in life.
Much values have been cultivated in me though some seem so lost. sigh. I am amazed with such long term goals. Such foresight. All walked with God.
I have so much to do that i can no longer continue. So i'll just end with a few quotes.
"I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year
give me a light that i may tread safely into the unknown.
And he replied, Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hands of God.
That shall be to you better than light and safer than any unknown way!
So i went forth and finding the hand of God,
trod gladly into the night.
And He led towards the hills and the breaking of the the day in the lone east."
"So heart be still
what need our little life
our human like to know if God hath comprehension?
in all the dizzy strife
of things both high and low
God hideth His intention
God knows His will is best
The stretch of years
which wind ahead, so dim
to our imperfect vision
are clear to God.
our fears are premature
in Him all time hath full provision"
"then rest until
God moves to lift the veil
from our impatient eyes
when as the sweeter features
of life's stern face we ahil
fair beyond all surmise
God's thought around His creatures
our mind shall fill"
i hope that everyone still reads my stuff...
