Sometime in camp today, I received a telephone call from a number that I did not recognise. I was just about to cut the call seeing as it was not a number that I recognise but somehow I changed my mind and picked up the call instead. Lucky I did too! It was not a random telephone call as I had thought.
It was a Chinese female voice speaking and I immediately thought that it was yet another random company calling to sell its product or something. However, that was the Mother Tongue HOD and she was representing the school in inviting me and my dad to attend the school's 11th College Day tomorrow.
I was informed that there had been special arrangements made for me and my dad to be seated with the other VIPs in the front few rows of seats. Thus, we were to register ourselves before taking our seats as there are special seats allocated for us and we will be shown to our seats. Wow! I will be visiting my alma mater PJC as a VIP tomorrow?!!
I was further informed that I was to register by 1500hrs and be seated by then as the programme will commence by about 1515. Finding it kind of weird that the school is giving me the honour of being at the school's College Day all of a sudden, I enquired more to find out if I had to prepare anything. Hahas, lol! I was told that I just needed to be present and I was invited as the principal will be making mention of me in her address so it will be good that I am present. She also said that I may be interacting with the other VIPs as well. Wow...
So basically, what I gathered from the telephone conversation with the MT HOD was that I didn't need to prepare any speeches or do anything at all in fact. I just had to be present and may have to stand and face the crowd when the principal makes mention of me. Isn't that cool?
After the phone call, if I was excited it was only just a little bit. I was being overwhelmed with feeling incredulous! What did I do to receive such treatment? It was still really really cool anyways.
I have still got to figure out what to wear lolz! I was told to wear a tie hahas. A sudden stroke of inspiration and I remembered that I had got the PJC's new school tie. What better tie to wear than that?
I also remembered, with a sudden inspiration, that this would be a good opportunity for me to go back to school to thank my teachers and the principal for their help in my referral letter. I had meaning to do that but had no reason to go back to school lols. I can also update them about my university application as well. Hahas... my problem solved!
I'm really looking forwards to going back to PJC tomorrow! Hahas... me a VIP?!! Lolz!
