Dearest Mrs Wong (finally Mrs!! mwahaha),
First of all, I must declare, WE THREE ANGELS ARE GREAT!! Aren't we? We turned Mr and Ms Wong to Mr and Mrs Wong!! Mr Yap didnt put his faith in us for nothing! (When we kept teasing the both of you, Mr Yap told us that we better make something happen. haha. Bet you didnt know that)
ok, enough of feeling pleased about ourselves.
CONGRATULATIONS!! Your big day is here!! You are one of the few teachers with whom i have stayed in contact with after so long and most certainly the only teacher-turned-colleague-cum-friend-cum-mother! (Honoured right..) It was kind of sad seeing you leave AHS at the end of my sec 2/3 school days. People slip in and out of our lives and you were slipping away. Some teachers dont even remember us once we move on to the next level in school and even fewer remember us when we graduate. So you can imagine my surprise and how touched I felt when you asked me if I wanted to work at CCAB while i was in the midst of my A levels. I dont know why you asked me, especially with the tonnes of students you have and all your close Scout boys and I am truly grateful for the chance to learn and experience so much and to see you again as a teacher and a mentor (i sound so mushy here. hee) The work was nothing short of memorable and I will always remember the things you told us. You taught me that work was never really about just the work, it was always the people who will make you stay or move on.. How you were staying for DD and how DD was staying for I forgot who (Hee..) And how worried and serious you were when you told us never to treat our future bosses the way we treated DD (haha. we know!!) And how you always send us home despite it being out of the way and never complaining. We felt really pai seh but you told us that you were blessed enough in the past to be treated nicely by those before you and all you asked of us is to treat the people after us nicely as well.
It may be only a part time job and one that I have only been in for only half a year, but I felt that I have learnt so much and gone through so much in that short time with all the right people. It was life changing!!
I have no idea why this happy wedding letter has become more like a farewell letter but oh well.. You are beginning a new chapter of your life and so I shall help you summarise your previous chapters. So nice right? Actually, I am not even sure if people wrote ketters for people on their wedding days but how else to tell you all these when you are busy becoming Mrs Wong? and i also wont know to tell you face to face.. I am shy... hahah.
This letter is really running quite long. Ask Mr Wong dont be jealous I didnt write one for him, guys dont like such mushy stuff right? Anyway, i know you 7 times as long as i know him, so this long letter is your privelege! Haha. i know he will be a good husband (tell him this and make him happy) since the only thing he cant stand is 3 noisy girls in his car. So as long as you all have only 2 kids, it will be fine!
Enjoy the rest of your journey together!! I know you all will!! Love love love!!

PS: I hope my standard of writing didnt disappoint my English teacher!
i know its weird typing an entire letter for someone here. but it's as much a part of my life as hers! the last time i wrote a farewell letter to someone, she told me its so touching she almost cried. and guess wat? i cant really remember what i wrote. so now i wont forget this one!! :)
