First day of school
today is the first day of school, my lesson doesnt start till afternoon... had the luxury of slacking ard a little bit and trying to come to terms with school life again...
i remember the exact same day last year during the first day of school, i went to the hall office to collect the Hall's annual year book and i sat alone in the room flipping through the pages and reading up and glancing through the pictures... it brought back a lot of mixed feelings... not those good and bad ones, but those of longing and missing... it happened again this year... the impact even much harder than before... cos the people whom i am closest to are now the contributors to the "Words from departing Seniors" column... At the end of this year, i too will be writing in that column, i forsee.
Cheekz mentioned that he wun be able to see me from outta his windows anymore... not roger, not weifeng nor kristian anymore as well... such a sad picture, such a sad scene painted... i looked across to A block now, what was cheekz, colin, hiep, renhan and kimmie was now replaced by bernard, bingjie, chung hang and gang... the faces whom i had grown so used to seeing each morning when i wake up, going for breakfast with... going for dinner with have changed... its even more apparent when i stepped out of my room, the usual messiness from the graduating trio are gone, we shifted rooms and new pple came in and took over... in the long wing, pple separated, some to D4, others to A4... such has become the state of B4, the level of happening people, who brought some much nonsense, joy and fun and laughter, experience and craziness to the rest of the hall... so often we were mentioned in the year book for bringing fond memories to people... thanks for having a place in your heart for us... i miss my guys...
i still remember vividly weifeng and roger's nickname on msn before me, patrick, barney and daming moved up. "things are gonna change around here..."
i look around, its certainly true... even for my A2 gang, the remmants read - yuan, xiwen and carmen, when initially there was ruoyan, wendy and charlene as well... i really wonder what will become of hall when this batch of pple graduate from school and from eusoff as well... cos this batch is at least 20-30 people... no less than last year's....
the good thing is that we are still in contact... i am grateful for that...
