1 Feb 2004
十年了.....
Nope, I am not going to mention Eason Chan'S song "十年" (ten years)
After 10 yrs, finnaly attended a Pri 6 Class renunion on 1 Feb at Pastamania Bishan.
If not for friendster, I would never be able to trace back my ex-classmate's ( who's the organiser) contacts.
Was rather surprise when she mentioned through Friendster messages that she had been reading my articles which appeared in ZaoBao and Friday Weekly, she even look at the group photos to confirm it was me. But she couldn't contact me as she don't have my details.
Ok back to topic, abt 10 people attended. Couldn't recognise most of them initially (and some could't recognised me too) as in my mind, the last time I see them, we were all abt the same height. Now the guys have become taller (i mean VERY tall), some of them lost their baby fats on their faces. some guys had become so muscular. For the girls, most of them are thinner, but that's very typical right.
Spent abt 5 hrs at PastaMania,. fortunately wasn't being chased out by the staff for we were rowdy at times, especially when we laugh at the jokes targeted at the "feng shui master" -- YF. PT had saw him setting up a stall at suntec funfair, dealing with fortune telling, and JR confirmed that he has been doing some Fengshui biz. Somehow it leaded to someone suggesting him having to write adverts on toilet cubicles stating " for Life Altering S** Techniques (LAST), please call this number 9********* (his mobile number)."
In summary, here's some interesting finds
1) quite a few classmates had changed their names, dunno why...
2) Yf, who use to be the class clown as is the one being laugh at, not the joker) is still being picked on and laugh at, cos he is so blur and dun get our words at times
3) two of the guys ( YF & WL) are now roomates in University hostel. Apparently, they bumped into each other during the day registration and one aske the other if he want to share hostel room. Keke, so they were being teased as being "gays" by the other guys.
4) WL "bao-toh" that he was awoken up by YF once at night as YF being rejected by a girl during the day, had suddenly hit his hands on the mattress, asking "Why why (wei shen me, wei shen me)." in his dreams. Must be he cannot accept the rejection.......
5) two pretty girls had went for SAF interview. The guys had mixed reactions. Some want them to come and be their "madam" so they (the girl) can take care of them, While others tried to dissuade them by saying their smooth complexion will be spoilt by the "camo sticks".
6) PT can still remember the"cheeky dirty songs" that the two boys kept on singing then-- "qiao2 qi1 gu1 niang" and "She Loo Loo" songs. The lyrics were composed by them after watching some TV programs. Tso don;t think that kids are all so innocent.
7) We all remembered those days where we played "Poison ball' , having "interclass poison ball match", running to book court to play "Poison ball' during recess time.
8) The guys remembered whom they fought with.
9) We all have difficulty trying to recall our last class sitting position, except for J.C., whom we all remembered he had to sit near the door becos he was so naughty then.
10) We can still remember the nicknames we've gotten. Somehow they stick.
11) We remember those teachers that were fierce more than those we didn't hate.
12) we remember those who have siblings in the same school.
mmm should be all. There are plans to go back to our old school premises to take photo b4 the old blocks were demolish. See when lor.
