I met an ex-teacher of my primary school, Sekolah Temenggong Abdul Rahman (2) [STAR2], Puan Hajah Salmah during a wedding reception. The reunion happened only after almost 40 years, at a wedding reception of her grandson. And the father of the groom, who is her son, is actually my ex-schoolmate. I was so happy to see still look healthy at 80, and she still walked around the hall, greeting and talking to the guests. Of course she did not remember who I really was after all the years, but as people say, once a teacher is always a teacher.
I just wonder later when I turn older, will my ex-students still come to me to say "hi" and ask for a selfie.
