Andy's Photo Album
(School Portraits)
The popularity of the Internet has made it easier to find old friends, classmates, teachers, and other acquaintances. I made a list of all the teachers that I had from Elementary through High Schools and they are listed in order of periods in a school day. I want all old acquaintances to know that I haven't disappeared off the face of the earth and please feel free to respond if you remembered me.
If you are wondering, I have already found many old friends/classmates via the Internet.
Born on November 30, 1971 in Taipei, Taiwan, the Republic Of China
Attended Kuang Jen Catholic Elementary School (pronounced Guang Len) in Taipei, Taiwan. My memory is dim on this, so that's why I posted some pictures here so maybe an old acquaintance whom I once attended this school with could find me.
You might wonder how a Buddhist like me could be attending a Catholic school? Well, I was previously enrolled in another elementary school but, if I can recall, for just a mere four days before I was kicked out for being a bad boy. I would run to the playground during the daily national anthem! My mom had to find, plead and beg for another school who would accept me for the time being until we would eventually immigrate to the United States.

Kindergarten (a.k.a. Large Grade, Ta Ban) (1976-1977):
Why wasn't I smiling in this picture?
It's probably because I got spanked by
one of these teachers. There is no law against
teacher spanking students in Taiwan.

on the boy in the picture was because
I didn't get along with him.
