Heyos!
Hi Brandon! haha. Congrats on finding my blog!
It was teacher's day celebrations today! I reached school at around 7 and started wrapping the presents for mr wong (our Chemistry tutor) and mr chong (the dedicated ct!)!
Thereafter, we proceeded to the parade square for assembly.
After assembly, it was breakfast time in the canteen! I forgot to bring bread. But who would want to eat bread anyway, so weird..plain bread. Zhen Feng was supposed to remind me last night to bring (I told him to anyway), but I guess we both forgot=) But we had oreos, milo, polar cakes and brownies!
It was so warm throughout the day which made me really sweaty! After the breakfast, we had the opportunity to enjoy a performance in the hall, with drama and dance groups, singing, bands (or to be accurate, A band), and video clips!
The theme for this year was flights and teachers went on flights, and had their meals, then entertainment on board. I thought it was rather cool, with the CTs dressed up as stewards and stewardesses..haha(:
The event ended nearing eleven, and claire, laura, shi yuan, geraldine, a new tkg friend delicia and I hurriedly made our way to TKGS!!
We saw Mr Peh, Mrs Liew, Mdm Azizan, Ms Tee, Mrs Loh...(did I leave anyone out?...) and the green audits teacher Mrs Lim-Neo! We gave some of them presents, chocolates from the cocoa tree sale!
It felt good to be back, remembering all the things we did in the past. The best thing was seeing everyone again back in school! It was so nice!! On bus 16 when we were making our way to TKG there were already so many familiar faces! It gives me a really warm feeling inside. Then in TKG with the familiar security guard whom I used to wave to everyday after school who still remembers my full name! haha..
Then when I was leaving the school with kailing, claire, laura and ting through the side gate, I recalled the days where we walked down the same corridor to the side gate, taking off our name tags and pinning them on the side of our belts=) *feels wistful
17 this year! Sounds old doesn't it? And to think I was still wishing 16 would arrive quicker in the past, which really seems to be just months ago, and not years..
Time flies! It really does! And I think we had never realised it till we got into JC. Spending most of our youth on education..
We left TKGS and went to the magic wok outside for lunch=) then we proceeded to the front gate to the busstop to take 16 (again) to grand cathay to watch a movie!
Claire and Kailing weren't interested in the movies screening that time and the movie that Claire wanted to catch hadn't came out yet, so only Ting, Laura and I watched Bandslam! It was really a nice movie though, but I realised the people you sit with realllllllyyyy matters a lot!
There was this bunch of lower sec boys (with shorts) that was sitting beside me with body odour, foul language and immature minds. They were swearing all the way and I seriously think they have minds with restricted vocabulary limited to vulgarities and 'hot', 'kiss', 'hot', 'kiss'. SERIOUSLY. BOYS. Can't stand them! And he kept shaking the seat. And talking loudly. PLEASE. Don't they know what's cinema etiqutte???
I'm never sending my children if I have any boys, to a school like that! I couldn't catch a glimpse of their badge though, although I did see that they wore really dark blue shorts..or was it because of the darkness of the cinema?
Anyway..after that bit of flawed memory of Bandslam, the three of us made our way home=)
It was nice to get together and catch up on events in life..like me telling them about him..and events in school..and everything..=)) I really like the warm nice homely feeling it gives me.
LOVE YOU GIRLS!!!
I never realised how I missed a girls' school environment, nor did I realise how accustomed I've become to a mixed school environment until it felt weird to see all girls around=)
Life passes..time and tide waits for no man..in this world we live in...let's strive to live our life to the fullest!
