Decades after leaving school, after I had my degrees from Windsor
University and Auckland University, AUT. Dad disclosed a worry he had once
harboured.
In Primary One, my principal Mr. Wong Kie Mee told Dad
that he suspected I was a retard, I was quiet. Dad disagreed with him. I
seemed normal at home.
Wow! what a disclosure. Yes, I failed my
Chinese. I continued to fail Chinese until I dropped it in Form 5. Dad
had a sigh of relief, here I was showing my report book that I came
first in the class.
By then, I was matured enough to analyse why I
was suspected to be a retard. I could think of two reasons, I was the
only Cantonese in a pool of Foochows. I did not attend Kindergarten.
This is my now primary school. It looks as good as any university.

ABC letter R for R&R
R&R Read & Review
R&R Read & Research
R&R means many things. To a writer, these two means a time of gloriously idling.
I am at a R&R stage, that is mucking around and not doing useful writing. I had a launch in 2013, it was so grandeur, I couldn't ask for another. Sometimes at R&R, I go visiting. Here I went to Australia to see my parents.
