Let me dream.

Thursday, November 19, 2009

Seow said I sounded like a sick of life person, well I shall post about something else then. Feel like doing some reminiscing tonight.

Just had a mini 6E dinner date on Monday. It didn't go exactly according to plan, but I did enjoy myself. We were talking about some stuffs that happened back then, and according to the majority of my friends, I used to be really mean to a classmate who loves fishing. I didn't even remember that! But I knw that I could really be a bitch back then. (Okay, even now)

Anyw, we've all grown up and some of us look different, think differently and also act differently. Some of us, though, are still the same as ever.. It's quite a good thing that after we've graduated from Xingnan for nearly 5 years, a bunch of us are still meeting up and catching up with each other. This feeling assures me.

I hope that 10, 20 years down the road, this group of friends will still remain close to me.

Many of them are doing very well now. Eileen the one who never has time to meet up with us, is our typical high-flyer capable girl. We all knw she'd go a long way didn't we ;) Jiaqiang who used to be a joker is going for job attachments at a law firm now! Qini, who didn't turn up that day, but according to her MSN PMs, she's doing well too.

Of course people like the Tony(s) are definitely doing well. Actually, everyone is. In their own ways. No matter whether they are in JC or Poly, they are all going their own way and really excelling in their own niche. Makes me wonder what I'd been doing this whole time... But never mind, will not talk about this now.

Some of us have forgotten each other. Kakiong didn't knw who's Sherry and Joselin. Sherry doesn't remember Karthi and Remy. I could still remember our class register numbers! But god knws why I do. We haven't met up regularly. Sometimes not even once in a year. Even if we do, it's always the same few who turn up. People like me, Kailin and Haixin.

Somehow, in a strange way, I miss many of them.

I remember what kind of person everyone was like back then. Some of us have really changed. I think I have really changed. I think growing up really changed my perceptions to things and people. Maybe sometimes I just stop bothering as much as I did, at all the little things. And maybe that's making my own life easier.

What's life now for all of you?
Is it endless mugging, and completing projects? Is it nights of online games and dramas? Is it overseas trips and excursions? Is it juggling of work and studies?

I do miss the times we had back then, the things we did together. Our daily games of Crocodile and Blind Mice in the alley before supplementary lessons. Do you guys still remember Miss Chew makes groups of us to go up and read a chapter of our Chinese textbook aloud everyday? I still remember how sometimes when no one goes up, Shikai and the guys will start chanting "Lang3 ah... Lang3 ah.." And it's really funny.

Do you remember all the funny scandals? How he likes her and she has a crush on him. It all seems so far away and quite childish to think about now. Someone brought up at the gathering that the girls, including me, loves to carry books for our teachers. Haha, it's really funny now I think about it. For me, why I did it back then was obviously to gain favour and act like a teacher's pet. Not sure about the rest of my friends though.

But for now, see if I bother seeing my teacher struggle with his/her laptop and textbooks and papers. I think I'd just nudge my friend and tease him/her together. Actually, maybe I am still very immature. All the "I don't friend you liao!" and the "My mum say don't be her friend!" is really laughable to think about now.

I remember the conflicts too. All the unhappiness and troubles between friends, and cliques. Over teachers' day dances and stuffs like that. We are so immature, but it is something for us to look back and laugh at and reminisce. I think it'd be really boring if we all did what we would do now and we look back to see no significant difference to talk about.

I guess 6E was considered a diligent and hardworking class. We did homework and handed them up on time. We completed the exercises in our Chinese zhi shi hua bao and prepared them for supplementary lessons. I don't remember anyone ever skipping any of those lessons. We came back during the holidays in our last year to type up our zuo wen to enter into the Chinese newsletter. The bulk of essays sbmitted were from our class.

I remember how most of us always got at least 37 out of 40 for our Chinese essays. Look at what shit marks I am getting now.

I seriously remember our P6 years, we had an inter-class skitter ball competition. Our class sent in 2 teams and I was in one of them. Toward the end, one of our team was disqualified and Haixin came over to join our team. We were disqualified when the teachers found out. And I remember Zhilin pushing Haixin to the ground with such force and I hated him for that. Wow what a bastard. Haha, funny to even think of now.

I remember the Mooncake festival where we were in charge of the booth for riddles. And we played hide-and-seek in the dark. How I enjoyed myself that night. And even though I returned in subsequent years to attend the event, it just doesn't feel the same anymore.

All of the times we had in 6 years. Good and bad times. I really miss those times. And the people. Haha. Meet up soon my friends. And may we go on and on for a very long time to come.
