The Catholic High School Gentleman is:
A Bilingual Scholar of High Integrety and Robush Character who is passionate about Life, Learning, and Service to Others.
I can't BELIEVE I STILL REMEMBER THIS RUBBISH.
AND OH MY GOSH I GOT IT RIGHT.
see!! from CHS website:
The Catholic High student is a gentleman and bilingual scholar of high integrity and robust character, who is passionate about life, learning and service to others.
okay, almost right. but whatever!! ahaha. as i was cycling home from bishan swimming complex, i saw our very own catholic high school bus once again. juliano's and ian ketsu's face is still there. i dunno why, but it makes me want to break out into peals of laughter.
i mean, okok. You look at that bus, and all our photos and go...
"wow. catholic school gentleman. they look so prim and proper, so intelligent, and so sharp."
but watching us all grow up.. i kind of realised that we never really fulfilled the "image" of the catholic high school gentleman. and now, 5 years later, you would kind of realise that that, along with things like reputation and imagine, is ultimately just paper-thin. you may trick some people, but you certainly aren't fooling yourself or God.
which makes me think about something else. sometimes as leaders, mentors, or even older people in general, we tend to put younger people into moulds and expect them to grow up in a certain way. we think "THIS is the best way for them to turn out." but really, at the end of the day they will look NOTHING like what we imagined.
still, we turned out fine. maybe not exactly according to our leaders or our parents' expectations, but still fine. as they will also(: as long as we do our best to grow their hearts to love jesus, i know that He will take care of the rest!
