The winds of change had indeed come to TLS and with the last of the Orang Puteh teachers and principals going away, the culture of the TLS was a thing of the past. Sad to say when I lovingly romp "home" to the school whenever I had the opportunity during my university days and later years, the friendly atmosphere, the warm "Good morning, Sir!" seems to have disappeared completely from the school.

I continue to miss the school bell and the smell of the dining hall. And I miss watching senior boys, with their well combed hair avoiding the north side of the school. (more of that later)

An era of our lives together in TLS has gone....but in some ways, we are still tied to each other like the threads in the tapestry of life.
