MY SECONDARY SCHOOL

MY TIME IN ST. FRANCIS' INSTITUTION

                                                                                                           

St. Francis' Institution; which is also known as SMK. St. Francis to many was my secondary school back in my hometown, Melaka. It is a missionary school renowned for its prominent english-speaking background.

   

Not to be overly braggadocious, but I would consider myself as someone who was an all-rounder in school. Despite my involvement in myriads number of activities, events and clubs, I never fail to find time and focus on my studies. Academically-wise, I have always stayed in the first class during my transition from form one to form five.

          With just a glance on the picture on the left, nostalgia coursed through my mind. The picture shows my class: 5 Hijau in the Biology Lab. We took this photo after we presented our Biology teacher, Pn. Nitia with a gift on her birthday!

On the side note, she was pregnant, so we gave her some baby-handling equipment!





                    If I were to be questioned on the days that made be proud to be in that school, it will be the days that I wore my scout uniform. Though I was not supposed to, I have always prioritize scouting over my studies. I mean, everybody in this world are inclined to opt for what makes them happy as their priority right? One of the best decisions I have ever made to this point of my life is that I have chosen to enroll myself into the scouting movement when I was form one. Never have and never will I regret for a millisecond of that choice. I will always feel a slight tinge of pride coursing through my nerves when I say, "I am a scout from 6th Fort".

When I was form four, I was elected as the Troop Leader of 6th Fort. I was given the chance to lead this prestigious troop that I loved so much; I was given the opportunity to improve the standards of this troop to greater heights with my batchmates.

On the year 2015, my school organized a formation marching competition that will be held annually. Scouts has consecutively won three times the competition on the year 2015, 2016 and 2017. This year, the scouts in my school are the defending champions once again. The following are the links to our formation marching video : 2015 / 2016 / 2017



Aside from being a scout, I also serve the school as a prefect throughout the five years of my secondary school. I was the Junior Assistant Secretary of my school's prefectorial board for the year 2014 and 2015.

PATRICK AND I SLEEPING IN CLASS

- Other than the main agendas, I find it difficult to stay awake in class almost everyday! I have zero clue to why my eyelids will start to gain weight and feel heavy when it is around 9am to 10am every single day in class!

P.S. : This photo was taken by my Add. Maths teacher.






                    Substantiated by the illustrations and texts above, I feel like utterly lucky to have such a wonderful, surreal and memorable time and experience throughout my days in secondary school. I appreciate those times genuinely to the extent that I would not hesitate to go back in time just to experience it all again.
