@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Welcome! 欢迎!@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Welcome to my virtual home. This is a little private space for me to put my thoughts and share my feelings since 2005. Due to my wide range of interests, there are perhaps too many tags. I would explain some of the less obvious tags:

"About Life" is really about how I have been pondering about life and what enlightenments and paradigm shifts I had experienced.

"About Psi" contains most topics about happiness, optimism vs pessimism,
confidence, comparison, pride and prejudice and other psychological aspects.

"About Logical Thinking" is about my own way of interpretating and explaining
certain issues, aiming to debunk (or create?) superficialness of them.

"About Ideology" is about my thoughts on big concepts like freedom, justice,
fairness in society and religion.

"About Society" is more about my observations about the society, often through interactions with different peoples.

"My Country" reveals my frustration, critics and hope
on my homeland - Malaysia.

"My Little Pieces" has more short posts though mostly are written in Mandarin.

While I do have some posts on book reviews and business, I am planning to
separate them into author-specific and content-specific blogs. Stay tuned.

Enjoy your reading!

周老师

“俊霖啊,老师没有再续聘了,不会再在小学教书了,迟点会去美国。” 之前续聘了三四年,一来为了继续培育英才,二来打发时间,三来帮忙学校填补师资不足。但因为只是续聘,比普通老师更容易受气,受学生气、受家长气、受校方气。老师教书数十年,早已桃李满天下,就算离开杏坛又有何遗憾呢?现在没有续聘,虽然没有工作闲暇时间太多,但可以无忧无虑地生活,安静平和地享受,是件好事呢!
      
1996年6A。十年了,小学毕业十年了。转眼十年,但周老师依然是心里最尊敬的老师。尽责、认真、对学生要求严格,为了学生的错误生气、发怒甚至伤心,肯把这么多心思放在学生身上的级任老师很难得啊,真的很难得。会生气的老师很多,但真正做到打是疼、骂是爱的老师很少。“我周老师教书数十年,从来没有见过一个学生像你这样坏蛋的!”这是老师曾用过的怒骂痛责,幸好从来没有用过在我身上,幸好幸好。
 
从踏出小学后门进入中学后门的那一刻,我就意识到了这个难得。中学的老师比小学的老师差太多、差太远。第一次看到原来有的老师可以如此混!有的老师居然这么差!中一的华文老师水平比周老师差多了!当然会教书的普通老师还是有很多,但在初中所接触到的老师里真没有几个获得我发自内心的敬仰。那是还以为中学教书的风格不应该像小学那样,到后来才知道原来是校方把好的老师都调去教高中、教大学先修班。师者,传道、授业、解惑,这角色是不会改变的。
 
在中学时大家都很怀念那时尚在小学教书的周老师,每半年或一年都抽空过去探望周老师。几乎每次大家都害羞胆怯,徘徊在小学办公室门外你推我我推你,总是没有人敢第一个进去看周老师在不在。是老师以前教书太严的影响?是因为一直以来都害怕进办公室?还是怕被小学生看到?不得而知。可惜周老师正式荣休的那天我们没有回去小学替老师庆祝,没能目睹老师在台上的表情。
 
去年年尾旧同学聚会时大家兴致勃勃地提要在今年搞个十周年纪念,但在最适合的新年期间没人推动,我想接下来的半年也很难搞了。(很懒发动啊,有心就好。。)
 
老师,恭喜终于荣休!
