We are most of the time too busy with our work. We keep repeating the same routine, day in and day out, until life becomes mundane and monotonous. Then, suddenly there is one small thing happening that gets us a tad excited. We simply abandon the mountainous heap of workload on the table and become happy again, at least for a short moment. That was the day when the helicopter landed on the school field.
WHY? The Sultan of Johor's Princess was getting married and the Police helicopter needed a huge space to park. We at first thought it was there to ferry the royalties, dignitaries and ministers, but it was stationary when it was not on patrol duty.
It landed for the second time at about 3.30 p.m. when most of the teachers and students had already gone back home. Those who were still in school went closer to the helicopter to get themselves photographed and even had a chat with the policemen/pilots on duty.
Just imagine what would happen if we were taken for a helicopter ride after that (which never happened). We were still a bunch of happy people nonetheless.
