yesterday, the class of p6/1 was finally back at qiaonan. 8 years have passed by so quickly. we waited at the canteen for the rest to arrive. so many faces, familar yet foreign. many of the girls have grown so pretty, making the guys go 'wah, chio!' as they walked in. about 25 out of the 43 in the class turned up. not bad i think. its amazing that we could get together now. our class was really united, cos everybody treasured our times here. this gathering was planned months ago by vic and seng. friendster has proved to be very useful locating everybody. only 2 people were like missing and uncontactable. some others have returned abroad. but yesterday was really fun. our form teacher and chinese teacher came too. we went up to our old classroom, sat round in a circle to update ourselves. kind of like orientation... everybody seems to be doing very well. we have future doctors, dentists, pharmacists, engineers, music players etc. all among us. we shared past gossips and toured the school.
but the whole day was like shifting tables. cos everywhere we went,we had to shift tables to accomodate the whole group. laughed so much yesterday cos of weiling and walid. walid would laugh at whatever weiling said and we would laugh at walid's laughter. created so much noise. and seng, he brought us to his 'fave spot', which was some secluded corner at tm's top floor beside a 'cage' with rubbish dumps. like what kind of place is that to sit and talk??
we spent the rest of the night at safra talking about the past 8 years of our life. everybody's love life seems pretty drama. or are all love stories as dramatic? yesterday was also the first time i sat on a motobike. walid sent me home but i was kinda nervous. gripped the side of the bike like my life depended on it, till the plastic cut into my hand. he was going quite fast but i enjoyed the wind. but i still prefer to stick to the car. lol...
yesterday was the first gathering but i believe many more will come. the kind of pure friendship in primary school is hard to come by and i'll treasure it. so mrs choo, watch out. cos we'll be raiding your house in the new year!
