3 days (part1) |
Oh thank god I'm finally able to post today. I have so much to talk about over the last 3 days!
08/05/07 I woke up at an unearthly 0530 today. Can you imagine? That's 30 minutes before the time I had set on my alarm clock. I was woken up by two messages from Yisheng, one telling me that he'll lend me a set of HC uniforms, and the other, asking if I had anymore HC badges. I briefly replied the messages, but couldn't get back to sleep, so I decided to just go shower and prepare for my day.
As you would have probably guessed, I went back to HCJC on monday. Accompanying me on my mad trip back was Yisheng, Eesuan and Shinwei. Four crazy, and all-too-free lunatics who wanted to go back to their old school, dressed in school uniforms and all. It was hilarious really. We all looked pretty much the same as our JC selves, but I guess anyone will turn out that way if you don the HC uniform. Hurhur. Kept trying to avoid being caught by some of my juniors in the HC uniform. Can you imagine? Getting caught in the HC uniform by juniors that you know, who are like 2 years younger than you? My reputation would be gone in like an instance. (unfortunately, a couple of them did see me in my HC uniform, and I had to meet them two days later at SYF. Sigh.)
The reason why we decided to meet so early (at around 0710) was because we wanted to crash the morning assembly. We were already running a bit late because I had to change into the uniform, and the girls were slightly late, so we had to rush to get into line before the bell rang. We were literally the last few 'students' in the right wing, and we just charged into the central plaza, not knowing where we were supposed to stand because we obviously didn't have a class to stand with. Suan just led the way, and we ended up behind some random class. The funny thing was that we were so out-of-touch with the once familar routine of morning assemblies that we turned at the wrong commands and forgot that we had to do stuff like say the pledge and all. And when the teachers started going down the row to take attendance, we were quite freaked out that the teacher of the class we joined would ask for an explanation of our presence there. Yisheng even planned a story about us being foreign exchange students to explain our sudden existence. Haha. So we stood out like sore thumbs! Especially Shinwei with her red hair! HAHA. During the course of the morning announcements, swarms of teachers just kept descending on her asking her to explain why she had reddish hair. Some of them recognised her, being her council teachers and stuff, but it was still quite embarrassing trying to explain our existence there, and why we were in uniforms and all. One particularly anal teacher wanted Shinwei to change out of the uniform, because of her hair. Being young adults, we naturally didn't heed his words (and were quite lucky that we didn't encounter him again.)
Anyway, we wanted to crash some lectures, but found out from Yisheng's cousin who happens to be in 07s71 (our great grand junior class) that they didn't have much lectures today, except Economics. Haha. We didn't want to crash an Econs lecture, so we decided to just chill in the canteen first before we set out to find our tutors. And we ended up meeting our Maths tutor there! Chatted with him for awhile, then went to find the rest of our tutors in the staff room. Met Mrs Chong, our Economics Tutor, and had a rather hilarious conversation with her. She starting making a list of our class, but she kept spelling our names wrongly - 'Damian' as 'Daiman', 'Yuen Mei' as 'Yuen Mein'- the hilarious thing was the four of us sorta gave up correcting her - we felt that there was no point really. Haha. Then we met Mr Lee, our Chemistry tutor, and dragged him to the consultation area, where we had a lengthy conversation with him. It was very fun to catch up with him, because I was quite close to him and he is the youngest (and most childish) of our tutors, so the class sorta connected with him. And then our CT and GP tutor Mr Wong came after spotting Yisheng when he went to fill his water bottle! Haha! Then Mr Lee changed shift with him and Mr Wong then came to talk to us at the consultation area for a very very long time, til he had to take off for another lesson. Mr Wong's another tutor that I'm close with, and he just kept rambling on and on about people in class and stuff. Since he was sorta like our 'father' and all (Mr Lee kept telling Mr Wong that we were his "children"), it was really fun to hear him ramble on about our class again.
After that we invited Mr Lee, who was darn free for that day, to go to have lunch we us. We wanted to eat at our favourite eatery, Curry Wok, but they were actually closed on Tuesdays! ARGH! So we ended up eating at Prince in Coronation Plaza instead. Geraldine joined us for lunch as well, so we had a rather hilarious time there where we inadvertently helped Mr Lee order an adult set meal without knowing the price of it, while we helped ourselves to the ridiculously cheap student meals. Haha.
We were quite silly as we forgot to take photos with the teachers. And the ironic thing was that all 4 of us had cameras. I guess you just forget stuff when you are having fun. Haha.
We decided that we are gonna do this again sometime, to go play volleyball at the courts. Its our class tradition to play volleyball - though for my case, its always either to watch the rest play or go down onto the courts to provide comic relief. Can't wait though! Haha.
*I do have photos to post but blogger's taking abit too long to publish them, so I'll leave them for another time.Labels: flashback, friends, madness, school |
