Teen driver dies
Sec 4 student, 16, takes brother's car out for a drive, loses control and slams into a tree

Friends advised Yeo Ken How, a Secondary 4 student of Bedok South Secondary School, not to take the risk but he did not listen.

Yesterday afternoon, the first day of the one-week school break, he sneaked a drive in his brother's Suzuki Swift.

It would be his last.
From The Striats Times

Before i left house this morning @ around 7.15am, i saw this SHOCKING news! First i saw the picture, then i saw BEDOK SOUTH SECONDARY SCHOOL and finally i saw YEO KEN HOW.

It came to a shock cos i didnt noe that he DRIVES and he is one of my Infocomm Club member! Haiz. This is so not a good Teachers' Day present la. I just cant help it but feel a sense of pity cos in just one or two months time, ITS O LEVELS already! What can be so important than scoring well for O LEVELS and move on in life??

Now i understand why, YEAR in YEAR out, before EVERY SINGLE term break, teachers will HAVE TO go on stage and deliver the "SPEECH OF DETERRENCE", especially the very last morning assembly before school closes. Every time, its about behaving ourselves in public cos we are holding the image of BDS, its about being self-disciplined when there is no teachers around to guide us, its about taking GOOD CARE of oneself and friends cos we still have a long journey ahead, its about ... (MANY MANY OTHER THINGS). The things that are repeatedly emphasized and RE-EMPHASIZED and RE-RE-EMPHASIZED are often "ONE EAR IN, ONE EAR OUT"! or they just CHOOSE TO SHUT OFF and TALK TO THEIR FRIENDS! When will they ever learn that it is very important to listen to all these "NAGGINGS"? 忠言逆耳! They just DONT! When will they ever learn that LIFE IS SO SO SO PRECIOUS that MONEY CAN NEVER EVER BUY? Most probably they KNOW, but they CHOOSE TO IGNORE.

To all my BDS JUNIORS:
Constant reminders (a.k.a NAGGINGS) are always VERY BORING! But, one thing is for SURE, OUR TEACHERS (or whoever it is that CARE SO MUCH FOR US) do things WITH A PURPOSE. Every single WORD they say out, has a PURPOSE. Every single ACTION they make, has a PURPOSE. Every single MOVE they take, has a PURPOSE. And what is this "PURPOSE"? TO TEACH US, LOOK AFTER US, KEEP US SAFE AND SOUND TILL THE VERY DAY WE TAKE IN OUR LAST BREATH and GO. So if you think it is a HELL LOT OF BULLSHIT and CRAP, THINK AGAIN. Is it worth it to go against all the RULES and REGULATIONS set out, just for the FUN OF IT? If you answer is maybe then THINK HARD - Is it WORTH IT to RUIN YOUR FUTURE (in this case GIVE UP YOUR LIFE) for the so called FUN and EXCITEMENT?

I really HOPE you guys APPRECIATE ALL THE THINGS THAT the TEACHERS in BDS do for you all. From what i have gathered from my friends in other schools, i can safely say, THERE IS NO OTHER SCHOOLS (or maybe VERY LITTLE schools) THAT WILL LOOK AFTER EVERY SINGLE STUDENT! FOR ONE, i noe now (in JC) i dont get such TREATMENT ANYMORE. You all have to understand that what the school do, is ALWAYS for the BENEFIT OF THE STUDENTS. So if you think the school's system is REALLY VERY VERY RIGID and TOUGH, perhaps you would like to go out there and BREATHE the air of other schools and compare it with BDS. I can guarantee, BDS IS ONE OF THE FEW SCHOOLS THAT TAKE STUDENTS INTO THEIR HANDS SO MUCH! We are like BABIES to the TEACHERS, ASSETS to the SCHOOL. SO, PLEASE APPRECIATE WHAT THE SCHOOL DOES and ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR TEACHERS for ALL THE HARD WORK THEY HAVE PUT IN, ALL THE CARE AND CONCERN THEY HAVE SHOWER UPON YOU, ALL THE TINY LITTLE THINGS THEY DO, becos THEY LOVE YOU and THEY CARE FOR YOU. Dont regret only after you have left the school. By the time you turn back and say, "Hey! Why didnt i listen to my teachers earlier? Why didnt i treat them better? Why....." it will just be TOO TOO LATE.

Do reflect on your journey thus far in BDS, no matter you are SEC 1 or SEC 4/5. One thing never change, and that is THE CULTURE OF THE SCHOOL (ICARE).

I like BDS for the homely environment. I like BDS for all the caring and loving teachers. I like BDS for the fun-loving friends and bonded class. Finally, I like BDS for I was a student of BDS and will always be.

Ken How
a great junior...
1992 - 2008

Ken, it saddens everyone on your departure. However, it has been a great time having you with us in our life when we were in BDS. In the BDS Family, the BDS Infocomm Club Family. We will never forget your frank and candid character that never fails to make us laugh non-stop. We will definitely miss your laughters and jokes. You are really a GREAT JUNIOR! We, seniors of Infocomm Club, hope you will find peace in heaven. We all will miss you! REST IN PEACE!
Our condolences to the family of YEO KEN HOW.

TEACHERS & FRIENDS:
Life has to go on even when things are in our way. Pause and move on. There are more things we can do for the others. BE STRONG! CHEER UP! JIA YOU! EVERYONE will be there for ONE ANOTHER! DONT GIV UP! LIFE GOES ON! =D
