4th Floor: Heritage Centre

The Heritage Centre is a place shrouded by mystery and awe, since no one has ever heard or went inside it. It used to contain our school’s legacy and contain artifacts of importance. The Heritage Centre was rarely open, and you would need to be either in the school’s top brass, or in the higher echelons of the school’s student population in order to gain entry. The Heritage Centre was not even open during Founders’ Day or Open House. I am glad that I had the opportunity to enter this room. The room was filled with many interesting facts about the history of the school and its past achievements. The Heritage Centre was really an eye-opener, as I learnt significantly about the school’s culture and heritage. I would have stayed there and explored longer, if time allowed back then.

The Heritage Centre used to be located on the 4th floor, next to where the Bookstore used to be located. They are not there anymore since the 4th floor has made way to accommodate Catholic Kindergarten. The Heritage centre has ceased to exist, and all we’re left with is the fleeting memories of what used to be our school’s Heritage Centre.

7th Floor: Gym (beside Legion of Mary room)

The gym is located right next to the Legion of Mary room and the Media Room. If you happen to walk past this room and not notice its existence, good job. I’m sure you another pair of spectacles. If you peer into the room through the window, and you will realize that this room conceals a legit bomb. I mean it. It also contains a variety of exercise equipments. A long time ago in a school far, far away, a young Marist was walking along a lonely corridor. He was blinded by the Sun who punched him smartly in the face. (language for impact) If he were Korean, he would have melted into a puddle of plastic. A door from the unbeknownst showed up, and lured the young Marist to take a look….. FAQ: Q: Why do you always seem to chance upon open doors? A: I, the wise old man, have real-time access to all information datamined by my team of intelligent primates. Every time a new discovery is made, they would upload the data through a sealed communication intranet. The access is only limited to my team. The data is then processed by my assistant Peacock. The peacock will then encrypt the data and send it to me. The peacock will also snuff out new places with its “keen nostrils.”

Video of the whole room from left to right.

Frankly, I wanted to take a “incredible panorama”, but I panicked and took a video instead.

My assistant peacock started to get paranoid and decided to nip me with its beak.

However, I managed to shrug it off and slipped my way into the Marist Residence and bolt the door shut.

Stupid fowl, it merely wanted to warn me to take cover --- as the construction workers were returning from their meal of rice, fish and rasgulla.

It was getting dark but the peacock was still outside pecking at the door. I decided to spend a day in Maris Stella High School. I noticed Studio 4 was oddly still left ajar. The pungent old man smell immediately got to me and I passed out. I was diagnosed with acute monoxide poisoning. The hospital bills were quite expensive.

You must be skeptical of what I had just written, after all the saying goes: No pictures or it didn’t happen. As I didn’t stop recording the video, I realized I had a shot of my peacock before I escaped. Here is the shot extracted from the video. If you would like to adopt my peacock, please contact me by clicking “Contact Me” which is at the top of this page.

6th Floor: Staff Room

I went to the staff room a couple of times in my entire school life in Maris Stella High School. Most of it was due to not handing in homework, running errands, and disciplinary cases. To my delight, the staff room is quite an interesting place to be. The state of the teachers’ table do give away the type of character they have, and how organized they are. Unfortunately, my conscience prohibits me from taking pictures of the teachers’ table, as it is DEFINITELY an infringement of their privacy. With that, I only will share with you the common areas of the staff room. (Humanities)

Maris Stella High School sure has a well-equipped workplace for its teachers.

I wonder if the students have a decent table that is not vandalised or scratched badly; or a chair that is not bent backwards unnaturally, or a rusty and shaky one.

Jokes aside, the staff room should be well-equipped to allow the teachers to have a place to rest and work after teaching. So that they don’t curse and swear about their teaching life, and ultimately vent their anger on innocent students. Note to students: teachers usually have a short fuse due to the high amount of “stress” they are experiencing. For the best customer user experience when purchasing a teacher to use, make sure that the teacher doesn’t has the “Impatient”, “Extremely motivated”, “Violent” or “Made in China” tagged on it, as it will make your user experience really traumatizing. (No refunds too.)
