After the court session today, I went to the second floor of the court building to buy some food. There were stalls set up selling mostly food items in conjunction with the Independence celebration.
After paying for my spaghetti, the person manning the booth asked me whether I taught in SMK Mutiara Rini before. I asked him why he did not ask me when I saw him two days before and he responded he might get the wrong person, especially he saw me in the court building instead of school.
[I guessed he saw my name after scanning the QR code when I was making payment] 😀
Then, another person approached me and introduced himself as my ex-student of SMK Taman Universiti. I still remember him from the first batch of students who enrolled at the school back in 1994. He was also selling drinks in the booth nearby.
Thanks to Mr. Alif and Mr. Firdaus for the pleasant surprise. It is always a pleasure to be approached by my ex-students, even after leaving school for many years. Once a teacher, always a teacher.
