Dear diary,
I'm falling in love..
see; that's how cool old school is.cabbed back to temasek the very minute stupidloser tpjc dismissed us.
on the way, memories of old school started to flood my mind. i realise i haven't been taking bus 10, 14 or 12 to temasek in what seemed like a million years. perhaps, as a matter of fact, i haven't really even been taking any bus since i stepped into tpjc.
tpjc is hell.
everything about temasek was good. too good to be true. those days spent together.. with the juniors.. the seniors.. the teachers.. and even the janitors. i loved temasek. it was very much like my second home. and we complained that food there tasted bad. wait till you try tpjc's. even our favourite prata man is leaving cos he sold black pepper chicken. tpjc is that stupid. i miss the witty people i meet everyday in lively tms. the halal lor mee was heavenly; it was drowned in starchy brown gravy and what crispy toppings. not forgetting the burger stall which sold me empty icecream cones at 10cents each. i loved seeing the canteen decked in blue red and yellow. the canteen was so attractive it lured birds from all directions. actually, they were pecking on the food remains on the table. but still, it owns the kopitiam-ish canteen in tpjc. i used to kope tissue paper from the teachers' dining area. school was that fun. that thrilling, especially when you have the musical Loke interrogating to as to why she should give you a piece of tissue. secondary school was full of bullshit. but the shit smelt good.
temasek's canteen is now one notch closer to being the best canteen in the entire world cause' i spotted new vending machines yesterday. and guess what i saw. HOHO
YOGHURT! those lucky kids...
i still remember the story about temasek's water fountain being sold to anglican high school cause' we were too poor to even pay off our electrical bills. so hilarious.
miss lela looked so different with her new haircut. it looked like a small kid who unintentionally snapped off her hair with a pair of shiny scissors; and a strong breeze came at that very minute. her hair looks sad.
liu lao shi looked very much the same. seemingly skinny. just like the last time i saw her. still, she is the bestest teacher EVER (: eventhough i got a blardy b3 for chinese :X haha but it's not her fault la.
so much for the teachers.
i didnt really see any teacher actually. not like any of them bothered to take a second look at me; except for an exchange of a few sentences with liu lao shi. i told u she's a nice woman (: damn nice.
and i was too shocked when i heard that MR. CHOOI; my FAVOURITE MICKEY MOUSE CHEMISTRY TEACHER IS NO LONGER IN TEMASEK! ): i could have cried man. i missed him so much. he is so nice. his jokes were so lame they made me cry. ahh mr. chooi, why ACS(i)... tms needs u. I WANT TO SEE YOU! ahhhhhh.
it was a cuddly day and i FINALLY SAW
SHAHIDAH SHIDDIK AND
SHEENA HARDIE after what seemed like forever! and bloody! KENNETH LIM HAN LEONG! hahahahhahaha. i've been wanting to meet him. and it was such a pleasant surprise. if only he'd responded more lively to my friendly wave, i would have been able to kill him with my
'hello darling i miss you' antics. or rather,
'hi there. i am kenneth's ex. care to chat?' it was such a waste. but i sympatise with him thou.
anyhows, met half of 4E. was at a loss for words. i truly missed this bunch of people most. no doubt, we havent been very bonded as a class over the period of 2 years, i still thought that the friendship we shared was pretty unique and close to heart.
everything about teenagedays we had was true and is now gone. fading away i guess.
amazing how time flies. the times we shared together. not crystal clear but sparkling, im sure.
i miss temasek.
♥ Loved, yourname
