編者的話: 喼神雖然係懶，但佢嗰種老狐狸智慧喺一般學校裡面唔會學到。教得唔好唔緊要(喺聖Paul度讀都予咗至少一半係咁，自己執生係一門必修課)，最緊要係佢唔煩唔管小事。喼神口賤(尤其係sarcasm)嘅功力超深，我喺佢身上學到唔少。如果你能豁開要佢教econ嘅期望，俾佢教都幾頂癮。

我認為係聖Paul教書嘅先生，教得好唔好唔係最大嘅問題; 最重要嘅係識唔識得同學生相處，同埋醒唔醒目。聖Paul嘅學生一般都唔會因為你係學校教書嘅就尊重你，都係要靠自己嘅真才實料(人際技巧係其中之一)贏返嚟。好似龍捲風呢啲得把口講，同埋超叔呢啲無自知之明嘅低B動物，要贏得聖保羅學生嘅尊重起碼要等多十世。我承認間中有啲學生會去認同啲無料到但好努力嘅先生，但我唔會咁做。

總而言之，係聖Paul教書都咪話容易，好多時都要睇天份。好似Ms Wai呢啲遲到早退嘅，偏偏係有料之人。佢火爆嘅脾氣反而教曉我有時對人好口啲好多時會幫你逢凶化吉。仲有我F.1俾飛機張教Maths大考38分，F.2俾Ms Wai教Maths大考全級第二，你話呢。
