..I'm only 1% of your inspiration...the rest is all yours.

Last year, this group had my brain's juice squeezed out...
I remembered arguing with one of my Guru Kanan for the number of students I'd target 'A' for the English Language during one of our academic meetings. I was really stressed, tensed...and I guessed our Principal sensed the atmosphere because he came up to me personally (later that day) and asked me...ever so diplomatically polite...how many students would I expect to get 'A' for my subject. I insisted as I spread out my fingers one by one, only 8 of them...but in the end, I rounded up the figure to 10 (pessimistically)...
On December 23, 2011 when the PMR results came out, I almost freaked.... 16 of them.. I repeat SIXTEEN.. achieved 'A' for their English. It was a new record for me ~ personally and professionally. I could not say anything more but I owed much of the success to my dearest colleagues, friends, family, my boss and most of all...the students themselves. '16' might be a frog's leap in comparison to other schools' achievement but I was very thankful.
My heart was swollen with pride and it is still swelling now...and I realized then, the feeling feels great and I'd like to have it more often in my future undertakings. And if I can do it with my students...WHY CAN'T YOU?

THE FRUIT OF SUCCESS IS SWEET...
....like Cadbury chocolate...
Literally, I can't taste 'success' but I imagined it must have tasted deliciously sweet like one of my favourites...CHOCOLATE.. (we made a pact earlier.. an 'A' for English Language means I get to ask them anything I'd like to eat....and being an opportunist, I never turned them down... (^_^)
