was packing some stuff this morning, and realised i have bags of stuff from dunman and vj days! man, so nostalgic.. hmmm, found this thing that tries to be a poem that i wrote on some paper i think in 97 or 98 - was stunned for a moment! haha, completely didn't remember it, but yet immediately, after reading a few lines, i remembered why i wrote this!! it was either sec 4 or yr 1, and dunman had some performance i think at chinese high. think people were finishing with loading instruments onto the trucks, and the sec 4s were just getting the members on the buses. i rem just deciding to lie down on the carpark, coz there were really many stars that night! and then someone just came over and it was just this magical feeling for a while.. and i guess that gave birth to this rather awkward mushy thingy:

The stars,

They seem to spell out your name (ouch, that hurt – so corny!)

Twinkling brightly, illuminating the darkness

Then suddenly, you were here beside me (haha, sounds like she magically appeared)

Lying on the ground watching the stars with me

And the world seem (hic) to stop spinning, revolving (aiyoh)

Just stopped for us.

And we had freedom, for once

But just as you came, you left

But somehow, deep down inside, I knew

I knew that you were here,

Sitting beside me, for me (huh?), with me

Just as I always will be

Sitting beside you, for you, with you

Haha, it's in red because um, it's in red ink on the piece of paper.. the yellow stuff's not part of it of course :p

Hmmm, sometimes I'm glad I've kept all these - proof that I've lived before, that I've experienced love, and hurt before.

yihui!! haha, we were really bored before the ceremony started.. k, the flash makes us look ghastly (see, that's why i brought a lousy camera - can blame ugly photos on it).. hmmm, remember you as an optimist who's always there with a comforting word to anyone who's feeling lousy - no one can ask for a better friend! :)

xiaoling!!! wonderful photographer and such an easy person to talk to!! will always remember our photojourn days.. hmmm, somehow tough times are always the times that are best to look back at.. and enjoyed the camaraderie of the class as well.. :) hope our paths cross again sometime in the future (heh, just got this inexplicable feeling in my gut that maybe we will)

xin and min!!

yanqi!! think we were closer before the "streaming" took place in yr 3.. hahaha.. well, i always remember how i bumped into you and zixin on an mrt train on the way to my first-ever national day! everyone was wearing red, and so were we! :)

haha, best picture of the night.. :p zuxin's gf took for us, and she happens to be my classmate from pre-primary school and dunman!! haha, actually we found that out two years ago, but we kinda forgot and "re-found-out" just now.. heh, enjoyed working on that bav video then, the midnight shoot at hall 13 (or was it 15??) plus burnt weekends for almost the entire semester.. but it was all worth it in the end.. a+!!! :)


tides of memories just washed over me just now. you know, one of those moments where your life flashes past your eyes. well, i wasn't about to die, but my school life just died with my convocation just now. school life as i know it, at least (no, i think phd or masters will feel very different, not really school life). so, memories of my four years in sci, with all my batch mates - they're more friends than schoolmates.

ok, dont feel like typing very much, so shall just post mugshots here (haha, was using my lousy digicam, didn't feel like taking photos around):

aaron! heh, it was really fun irritating you through all the lectures we had together these four years. "the eraser dust will stick together..." remember? :p haha, and somehow i remember celebrating your bday with all the rest of our yr 1 gang in canteen 3.. that sticks out in my mind, somehow!

heh, with the couple! i was really happy for both of you when you got together. well, actually i was happier for renee, since she got the better catch. hahahaha.. im kidding im kidding!!

my dear dear fyp and magazine tutor - andrew duffy!! it was a joy to be in your class.. wonderful teacher and person.. heh, hope to see you at future philwinds concerts!

ashley, aaron and renee! heh, i rem doing that broadcast journ piece in yr 2 (??) with ashley, kewei and carol.. one of the highlights of my four years, surely! :) heh, all that scrambling to get contacts for our transexual report, and finally getting it (really enjoyed shooting it with you all!), and then having to rush to edit through the day and the night and the day, and how everything nearly came apart at about 5am when everyone turned cranky.. :p but it was all worth it in the end!! sigh, too bad kewei wasn't there today.. :(

carol!! heh, i guess the strongest memory must be our fyp trip! to face all that uncertainties before we started the project and the trip, and then to encounter all those interesting and hospitable people, and not to mention the glorious food! it was a joy having you in school the past 4 yrs!

o

daddy and mummy 1.. hmmm, too bad my grandpa couldn't come.. and my bro also..

daddy and mummy 2

daddy and mummy 3

the fyp team!!

gene! we did one project together in year one right? heh, but can't remember what.. was it alfred choi's class? but i remember you were in hall 11, and always bump into you in the canteen! :)

jalees and yihui!!! heh, jalees, the livewire of the class.. didnt really know you well, but always enjoyed talking to ya.. love your imitation of the lecturers man!!! absolutely hilarious.. the world needs more crazy pple like ya.. :) cya at mda? :p

jeff!! heh, can never forget how you convinced me you were my classmate in dunman!! haha, somehow i believed ya.. hey, but not coz i was that dumb, just that you look like this other jeff i had in my class in dunman k!! :p

heh, jiamin thanks for coming by to help me with my gown and to take photos! :)

jiaxin! haha, so qiao walked by just when i was about to take photo.. :p

celebrity of my school! haha.. hmmm, one incident still sticks out in my mind.. remember being in the same social psych class in yr one, and dear gan su lin always makes us play games during her lesson.. haha.. well, there was this game when the guys had to piggyback the gals from one end to the other end of the room blindfolded, and i was thinking "man, joanne's really light".. guess that's the pre-requisite for stardom these days?

john!! haha, been in the same school since sec sch days!!! hmmm, don't think we've done projects together here though..

renee!! haha, the bright spark who always argues with me.. k lah, i think i start the arguments half the time.. but i dun do that much with other pple, so u shld feel honoured! :p hmmm, can always remember the time in yr one when you barged into my room in the middle of the night to chat, even though i didn't really know you!! haha.. you were staying over at fernn's room just upstairs.. guess i never thought we'd be doing fyp together at that time! hope you get the nac job.. :)

serene!! my dancing queen.. keep on dancing man!! hmmm, think we did one project together (now, why do i keep talking about projects here? hmmm..)? think it's the one with jeff also right? haha.. one of those from eons ago.. :p must come for one concert that i'm playing before we die hor!

shaoda!! haha, since i'm talking about people in terms of projects, we did one together! that it and new media module by randy kluver.. aiyoh, always had to struggle to keep awake.. not really kluver's fault, more of the dim room and the dry topic.. and must have been something in the air in that lt.. hahaha

vyoma!!

weimin!!! you and carol crack me up man.. the way you abuse each other.. haha.. sigh, that's one thing i'll miss.. still remember there was once the two of you plus me and kewei were studying at jp coffeebean and the two of you just couldn't keep your hands off each other.. pinching and slapping, that is.. :p
