Dear 4F,
This is my last formal post as your form-teacher. I am really glad to have crossed paths with you people for the past 1.5yrs. You have been emo and I too had my emo moments. Still, thanks for being part of a memorable start of my journey in Dunman. :)
Here are the photos that I took with you guys at Popstars Go Red & Graduation Day!
There are more that I have not loaded as I have not taken a look at the photos taken by Mr. Zul on that day. :) Will upload them once I have access to those
Meanwhile, this is the link! ;)

SOME 'WISE' WORDS...
14.11.2008 will mark the end date of your journey in Dunman for 4years. For some, it is laden with joy and successes and for others, the road has been more bumpy with setbacks. One thing is for sure, whatever path you take...
My Lit Students will find this familiar but I urge you to read the passages below:
A mob's always made up of people, no matter what. Mr. Cunningham was part of a mob last night, but he was still a man. Every mob in every little Southern town is always made up of people you knowdoesn't say much for them, does it?"
"I'll say not," said Jem.
"So it took an eight-year-old child to bring 'em, to their senses, didn't it?" said Atticus. "That proves something -that a gang of wild animals can be stopped, simply because they're still human. Hmp, maybe we need a police force of children ... you children last night made Walter Cunningham stand in my shoes for a minute. That was enough."
In life, we will often be pressured to act like people in a mob (gang) in order to fit in. It is especially in gangs or in big groups where even wrong actions can seen right because you become blind to the actual truth. It is my hope and wish for everyone in 4F'08 to grow and become the discerning individuals who will question and query acts of peer influence (be it fashion, attitudes and actions).
Afterall...
The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience
Go forth 4f'08 and begin carving a good chapter of your lives ahead.
Here's Ms Ong wishing you all the best in your endeavours and life's richest blessings! :)

Graduation Ceremony Info!
Hey all,
FINALLY! By the time you read this message- I am sure almost all of you are rejoicing and throwing confetti into the sky. :)
However, before you start heading out in full throngs to pierce whatever part of the body you have been dying to inflict pain on, or turn your head into a walking bob of green...
Please note the following information:
Graduation Ceremony Cum Tea Party
Date: 14 Nov 2008 (Fri)
Time: 9am- 11am
Venue: School Hall
Attire: Smart Casual (Ie. Collared T Shirt/ Blouse for Girls + Jeans)
Please do not walk into school with your piercings and funny coloured hair. Save that for Prom Night (if you really want to)
* Please be punctual so that we can start on time- we have a programme to adhere to as the hall is used in the afternoon (at 2pm for some other school function)
Also, those who really want me to be there to celebrate with you people this Fri Night @ Prom, please indicate your preference and wishes by sending me a text message. If I have more than 20 people who shamelessly want me to be there, I will. If not, I am afraid my very presence might just be too stifling for my 4F who has tasted newfound freedom ;)
Jokes aside.. the real reason is...
Ms Ong is very busy with family affairs lately as my my grandparents are very ill- one suspected of stomach cancer :( Also, the other grandparent is diagnosed as diabetic... As such, Ms Ong is quite stretched... Unless, 4F wants to very kindly and generously sponsor Ms Ong to Prom (kidding!) ;)
