Hi all SJi people
-
Tan Hock Kee and Lim Di Beng....no impression. Wong Fatt How yes. Though he has never taught me but my friends used to make fun of him. Cos' he has that blur look......Originally posted by Gedanken:Man, that brings back some memories. CC Foo was my form teacher in Sec 2, Tang tried to expel me and I still drop by to say Shalom to Big Mike when I breeze through town.
Say, are either Lim Di Beng or Tan Eng Hong still around? Both had the misfortune of trying to teach me A Maths and I'd be surprised if there was any love lost between mrs Tan and myself. The irony is that my doctoral thesis used a lot of the calculus that both failed to get through my thick skull.
I've heard the Ngs are doing all right these days post-retirement, but what about Wong Fatt How?
Apart from Precious, does anybody remember tan Hock Kee? Sheesh, I still remember the kerfuffle when his wife murdered his mistress. Not one of SJI's finest days.
and that funny sounding name.
Tang used to be really garang. He wouldn't hesitate to slap students in the face with textbooks.
Me from class of 95 btw. -
Yup, the same.......Originally posted by zaxis:ARE you refer the NCC (MAJ) Tang?

I really really miss those days where we sing the school rally. Sometimes, I tear when I think back of those fond memories.

The tune is that of an Irish war song. It was first penned by a monk named O'Donell Aboo in the 16th century.Originally posted by unclebutcher:we sang it every monday.... and wow! i didnt expect 100 over replies and i didnt expect so many forumnites to be ex-josephians!
As for why CBS schools use that tune for their sch rallies, I'm not too sure. Perhaps Bro. Mike would know. -

I can remember what the old library and staffroom in the current building looked like.
-
The elites..

Is Michael Chin the short balding guy who combs his hair from the side to cover his glory ? Thats the one that taught me physics, can't recall his name though.
-
Oh i remember liao. Not Michael Chin. Tan Chin Seng. Imagine, i had Wong Fot Hau and Tan Chin Seng.
-
These are the things that make life in SJI so colourful, aren't they? Can't get them anywhere else leh......
-
yah i had colourful results for maths and physics also, red colour. Heng that time got tuition and Clement Fernandez.

another classic was permanent period Luo lau shi, can't recall her full name. All time favourite was Toh Teck Wang, he damn nice and funny. Nelly Cheong and Roger Poullier was nice to talk cock to and...Jeremy Liew, Carmen Hoo, Deborah Goh, Alfred Nathan, Ghazali. The ones that leaves me speechless are Ameena Sajeed and Ellen Woo, an enigma. Can't really describe them. Love hate relationship.
