Chew jokingly calls himself an "old folk" as he is old enough to be his classmates' father.

The veteran artiste was even mistaken for a "guest lecturer", and had to clarify that he was here to learn and that his classmates are his school seniors. After a round of "interviews", Chew received a phone call from the school about his acceptance into the school on Apr. 1, which happened to be April Fool's Day. The radio deejay was told that his classmates sleep "very early," to which he replied that he also sleeps at 10pm and wakes up at 4am. He revealed that he had undergone the formal procedures to apply for admission into the school, which included a CV and letter of introduction from his company. While Chew is familiar with using the computer, he admitted that he needed some time to get used to using his computer for tasks such as schoolwork, drawing, editing, and writing essays. Chew expressed his gratitude to his company for keeping him and letting him continue to work at the radio station despite the present circumstances.
