Different Kinds of Pokka Peach Tea

Weijun, an ex-Pathlighter is now in Sec 1 in a mainstream school. He came back to Pathlight to visit teachers and friends. Our principal Ms Kho chatted with him. (See previous entry)

Ms Kho: So what else is different in mainstream school ? Any other things you miss ?

Weijun: I miss the Pathlight cafe.

Ms Kho: Oh – is it our Cafe food ? Our Food Kiosks ?

Weijun: I miss the Pokka Peach Tea.

Ms Kho: Don’t your school sell this in the canteen?

Weijun: They do. But they sell it in cans. Not in plastic bottles like what Pathlight has.
You see , I came back to buy this Pokka Peach Tea in a bottle – my favourite !

IT Classes

Weijun, an ex-Pathlighter is now in Sec 1 in a mainstream school. He came back to Pathlight to visit teachers and friends. Our Principal Ms Kho chatted with him.

Ms Kho: So what do you miss about Pathlight?

Weijun: I miss the IT lessons.

Ms Kho: Don’t you have IT lessons in your school now? Is it you miss the learning and the interesting way our teachers teach you ?

Weijun: No. In mainstream school, there are 40 students in a class. It takes 10min to settle down and start the IT class. In Pathlight, only 10 students in a class. Very fast to settle down to start the class. I miss that !

Inverted Flattery

Sean: Ms Kho, are you married?

Ms Kho: Yes, I am married.

Sean: I know you must be married. Only a FOOL would not marry you.

School Supervisor overheard the exchange and joined in.

Ms Phua: What about me?

Sean: For you, only an IDIOT would not marry you. So of course you are married.

Use a Comb Principal!

Principal Ms Kho was at assembly this morning. Student Zina saw her and said “Oh dear, your hair..” and she started picking flyaway hair off principal’s face and neck. Then Zina said in a stern manner with her finger pointing at principal “Ms Kho, use a comb!” and then she walked away.
