This is one of the many beautiful trees in my school, and this is where I spend time running around and playing hide-and-seek with my friends…haha, 😂 just kidding! I didn’t want to bore you with another story of mine, so a lil’ joke won’t hurt, right? But this is really one of the beautiful trees in KES - my very own HOGWARTS!
I am truly blessed to be a KES boy, cos the school is surrounded by lots of beautiful nature. On normal school days, this is one of the spots where me and my friends sit and talk during break and lunch. The view looks amazing in spring, summer, autumn, and winter - all year round! You see those crispy golden leaves? That’s the colour in autumn, before they fall to the ground. In winter, there won’t be any leaves on the tree, and when spring comes, the leaves will sprout back in shades of lush green which stay with us all through the summer. And so the circle starts again…
Last Friday was the day I finally went back to this natural paradise after having to isolate for two weeks, and the atmosphere was very overwhelming…but in a very positive sense! As soon as I walked into school, I was greeted with all sorts of people congratulating me for my TED Talk. Teachers and students were stopping me in the corridor telling me how much they enjoyed my talk. And the most heartwarming part of it all? Most of the students were in the senior years whom I had never even met before, but had taken the courtesy of wishing me well done for my achievement! And even though I was wearing my mask, they still managed to recognise me. What more could you ask for from your fellow schoolmates? This is a great example of the true KES spirit. I am truly humbled!
I also had the honour of meeting the Chief Master to sign my name in the legendary Golden Book for the book review I wrote on 'Mother Tongue' by Bill Bryson. I was beaming from ear to ear with pride when the Chief Master congratulated me, not only for my Golden Book, but for my TED Talk as well!
And the icing on the cake was more good news, which I promise I’ll be sharing with all of you very soon…
Blessed,
O. Mukhtar O. Mukhlis
