Gathering, Primary.
Feeling incredibly crappy... so bear with me a little, ya?
Isn't it amazing that we still have gathering? Okay, so my prediction went wrong, we did have another class outing thanks to Eileen, nine months later. I don't understand why we were unable to dispense with the pleasantries, despite being friends for over ten years. We were like asking each other how has one been, what they were doing, which IMOH, speaks volumes about how they do not pay attention enough during the last gathering . Why not start the conversation with," hey I heard you're doing ____, so how's that coming along?"
My first impression is that everyone is incredibly gorgeous. Even the guys, they look like they could be on some kind of reality dating program on TV. I think the guys changed the most, the girls looked more or less the same.
It's been what? Ten years, I would have gotten to pay more attention at school if I knew we would still meet up. I digress, The girls seem to be doing fine. Eileen's now a financial planner, that is a really nice way to tell people and not put them off that you sell insurance for a living.It's really a job hazard, friends will think that she's trying to sell them insurance everytime she asks people out. No wonder she told me she was a financial planner over msn. But she doesn't, and she laments that people whom she askes out in turn ask her about the financial plan avaliable. That always leaves her puzzled. I kinda remembered that before the convocation she was pondering on what she's going to do as a living, I'm glad she found her calling. Anyway, Sonia is working as an accountant. Saswani working for CPF, Lemin is going to be a chemisty teacher. Jingxian onto her final year and is working at her FYP. Zd is getting married next june, to some japanese girl who he picked up while he was bartending three months ago. The guys, all being Poly batch, are all clearing leave. Can I say I ord-ed last year may and had my first ICT already =) Weili picked up smoking, of that the girls are blatantly disgusted by his announcement. I guess it's really hard not to pick up smoking in a social smoking environment. Kaven too says he's just waiting for someone to ask him to quit.
That leaves an incredibly lousy as I do not have any plan about my future or future direction. Everyone seems to have some huge plan as to what they're going to do. Get a Job, Get married, go study. I feel like I'm hovering in stasis between space and time waiting for something to hit me. I feel so useless. Even though that I know I have something more than that.
Then, we went to this bar with an unreadable name at the back of the Irish pub where Kavan worked part-time. It's not a place like the Irish pub with screaming soccer fans and soccer to watch, but rather a quiet relaxing soothing place for small chats and booze drinking. That place also provides board games and such, kinda like the settler's cafe, but with less variety. So Kaven ordered 2 jugs! Becks is a great beer. Booze are great, I wonder why I never found them delectable before.
Anyone with a cue can play pool but not everyone can play like steven. I must comment that steven is an amazing pool player, compared to my playing skills. I witness him beat that guy at the challenger table. But the guy is not bad as well, just not as good.
Reminiscing about the past is really a fun deal considering all the faults and embarassing moments that people have to endure. Kaven offered up his place for another BBQ, that's great, considering the fact I love bbqs.
Kaven was voicing his dislike for the asking of Joshua to the previous bbq. What's wrong with Joshua? I admit that in every group there would be one freaking werido that always does something out of the ordinary, Ever wonder why? Maybe there's a weird weirdo law. For every group, there must be a werido.~ Ys law of weirdos. I know that to be true. In my primary school up to my teritary education including NS.
I think Sonia's parents and bf are too uptight about her. I mean for god's sake she's 22 and working, give her a break! She must have been chargined by that social embarassment of calls. I feel that it's okay. It actually shows them that they cared. Some people crave for that kind of loving but get none.
The amazing thing is that I met Ellson! on the way back! OMG!! Of all the people I guess it's really something to meet him.
Oh ya, so me and the girls flagged a merc cab out of the hundreds and thousands of available cabs around, what are the odds of that. I wonder how much it went to. I think people have this misconception that they're really posh and expensive, shouldn't cost too much I hope. Shall return the money to Lm next outing, if ever there is one.
Who would have thought that Zhang lao si, my primary school chinese teacher, which I've always thought to be incredibly intelligent would be right. Like wl reminded, 2 yrs in JC 4 yrs in Secondary 6 yrs in Primary, and that makes this friendship worthy of keeping. At that time I was like, "ya right.. who would actually remember their primary school friends ten years down the road." Sometimes you have to experience it for yourself to understand that.
All these were made possible with the advent of friendster, ah Friendster, an amazing technological innovation which sparked a series of other friends networking service on the net. But none as successful as Friendster. It's trying it's hardest to reinvent itself, so it doesn't lose out to the competition.I've seen 3-4 layout changes in the past 4 years. I don't know the exact figure, I don't logon to friendster that much nowadays. IMOH, that's the way to go. Reinvent or die-out, also that is the motto in the Singapore context. Not just Singapore but the rest of the world as well.
I always have this perception that if you write a long enough entry, nobody in the right frame of mind would go through this whole entry and read the boring details I keep just for prosperity's sake or as a backup in case I lose my memory due to a head concussion while taking a ride in HK disney land. People would just skim through and miss the juicy bits. Seriously, I don't really give a damn.
