Today, I stayed back after school for Project Work. After that, I went to ask Henry math questions which I didn't know how to solve. Then we went to eat in the canteen. We saw Xiling and joined her. Heh. It was quite fun, we talked about random stuff and it was really entertaining.

:D

XL was browsing through my phone and looking at the various themes that I had and she decided to download some and go home and look through them herself. Haha.

We talked until about 7pm and then we headed home. At the bus stop, H and I were waiting and suddenly we saw Mr Isaac Lim appear. Then I asked him, "Did you wear your collar pin?" He looked down, said, 'No." and we were like "Uh oh..." cos I didn't wear too. Hah. I think I lost mine.

Isaac was with his little daughter and they were going home together. She is really cute and kinda looks like him.

At the bus stop, he was holding her hand and hugging her towards him. They were both laughing and she started asking him questions, the usual kind of questions that little children ask when they're curious. This scene kinda touched me. I thought he was really sweet towards her. He seems like such a loving father.

And the way he wore his PE shorts up high plus super high socks just looked kinda nerdy but so fatherly. Haha.

I used to think he was a little eccentric and amusing, cos in school he would speak with an accent (dunno if he purposely does that, but I hope not) and he always gave guys a stern look and chide those who didn't wear collar pins. To me he seemed really serious, like he was just doing his duty. But outside, he's an entirely different person. The way he spoke to his daughter was so gentle and I could tell that he really loved her a lot.

And this is kinda funny, but this heartwarming scene just kinda touched me. Probably becos' I haven't seen this side of him before.

I wonder if Michael Tan is like that too. Hehh.

Isn't it amazing how many fathers who are important role figures (some who are CEOs, discipline masters, and police men) are so sweet and loving to their family and friends outside of their work?

It just really amazes and touches me.
