StAR Day 2024: Dr Robin Seoh

1. It’s a normal day at work, before you get a call from your colleague. It’s an emergency. You need to come deal with your students ASAP. What trouble are they most likely to have gotten into?  

They have not eaten and are fainting in class.

2. After taking care of the situation, you return to your desk and sigh deeply. If you had not become a teacher, you would now be _______ instead.  

Field researcher in birds

3. Never mind, you shrug off the stress from the morning and go to lunch. Where and what are you eating? And who are you eating with? 

Plate of hot char kway teow, with Chee Loong and Hariz.

4. You are about to tuck into your meal when you notice a strand of hair in your food. Do you: A) Pick out the hair and eat the meal, it’s no big problem. B) Inform the store owner and get a replacement. C) Complain to your friend but pick out the hair and eat the meal anyway. D) Eat the hair. E) None of the above. 

E) Keep the hair for DNA fingerprinting exercise later.

5. After lunch, you return to continue your work. What task are you most dreading and/or what task are you most looking forward to? 

Looking forward to download songs that AI produce for me for the curriculum.

6. This is when you notice a strange letter placed on your desk. You open it and it says: I regret to inform you that you have been fired. Please clear your desk by next week. How do you feel? 

Finally, God has decided to move me to a place to showcase my other strengths in life!

7. You turn the letter over… and it says “Just joking! Happy StAR Day! Thank you for all your hard work and the school will not be same without you!” How do you feel? 

Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you gonna get…
