Meeting R.I.'s former principal Mr. Sigamoney again after a quarter-of-a-century was an overwhelming experience.
Mr. Sigamoney was the best physics teacher Mr. Phang ever had, when Mr. Sigamoney taught for a few months due to staff shortage.

Teacher's Day present - "Junior Hammer" - is a present for Mr. Phang to "threaten" students who make "junior" silly mistakes, e.g. there was a student who insisted  that (1/2) + (1/3) = (1/5). This is in contrast to Fiona's present - "Blood-Stained Magical Sword" (see below) - which is for "threatening" students who make "senior" silly  mistakes, e.g. gain in kinetic energy = ½m(v - u)2.

Note: The "blood" is actually some red ink from a white board marker that Mr. Phang added to make the sword more scary.
