Hey Everybody Who Keeps Coming To Check:
Finally there's a new post. But what to put into the post leh? *shrugs*
Hmm, let's see, Yoke Khee's back in Brunei til the 21st.
We went out yesterday, the day before yesterday, and the day before that.
Yoke, Yeet and I went to CHMS for laksa on Thursday afternoon.
They put too much milk, tasted weird...
We all ended up playing memory and other made-up games using the chinese chess pieces in the canteen, with an ex-student of mine.
Turned out quite fun actually.
It's interesting how sometimes, you think "God, things sure have changed since our time!"
And then other times, you think, "Ahh, some things never change."
Then it made me think, woah, it's 2010 now. Nearly 2011. What's one year out of so many thousands before this one, and the decades to come? What's one class out of so many before and to come? It's like the school is a conveyor belt, students going in one end, coming out the other. But it's anything but depressing to be so temporary. We had our time, our moment. It felt so long when we had it, but now it feels so fleeting. Like a moment on the photograph. "You can't take a picture of something, unless it's already gone." Well said.
I just watched this episode on tv, where high school friends were reunited at one of their ex-classmate's funeral. They no longer shared anything in common coz their experiences after school changed them. So in the end, the only thing they had in common was that they were in the same class in high school, as different people. It's only natural I guess.
I didn't feel too much nostalgia with CHMS anymore. A lot of new unfamiliar things and people. My time with it has already been erased. Progress is fascinating this way. I wish more people would write in this blog... Just to see how we progress, and how we become more and more different. Come on, people! Don't just drop by! Leave a bit of yourself before you go. =]
mick.
