Haven’t updated my blog since like 4000 BA. (BA = Before As).

All the the memories in my past 3 years in TJC are still floating around in my mind, it’s so hard to collect them individually. All the relationships forged and friends made, most of which i probably will never see again. Now that it all draws to a close i can’t help but Au Lang SIGH.

I will never forget the days in J2 when we get the class list and see our names…

Austin Tay (R1)
Gorden Koh (R1)

How many people in TJC get the privilege of having a R1 behind their names you tell me. Yup, the lucky few who retained. lol!

There was this tree sticking out into the sea at the little Island across palawan beach. Few of us gathered our balls and slided across the trunk. Damn funny. Every slide was ridden with

“EH! SCARY SIA!”
”EH STOP SHAKING THE TRUNK LEH!”
”BREAK LIAO BREAK LIAO”
”YUXIAN QUIK TAKE PHOTO BEFORE WE DIE!”

Lance: “ Ok i sit here help u all hold the trunk down”

Kaisven: ”EH, FALL HERE MEANS GONE SIA HIT THE ROCKS”

Gorden": “HAHA! I further out, if fall i land in water”

Duy: “DAMN i’m in the middle, hit both rocks and water!”

Backshot of class, the empty space was reserved for the photo taker to be photoshopped in. But well, since it was fish who was taking the photo, we just photoshopped her into the sea.

Yep this is it. 26/08 in all it’s splendor. Au Lang SIGH.

 

And of course there comes my other favorite bunch of peeps in school.

CLIMBERS!

Look at this bunch of noobs! Dunno how to climb, first time trekking up Mount Chicken. Totally like Za Pa Lang.

 

But the 2 years pass really quickly. From seeing each other on Weds, Fris and Sats, we made it a point to assemble at BArea every morning. By the time i reach BArea everyday i will not fail to see some napping on the mattresses that we all constantly step on, some will be studying. Some will have earphones plucked in and just stone. Neemeng will always be staring at the wall. AND DONGYING WILL ALWAYS BE SLEEPING EVERY MORNING! NO PHAIL!

We’ll always wait for the music to start playing, and like 2 min after it plays will be our cue to start waking people up and keeping notes and turning off the fans and lights and walking out sluggishly towards the parade square.

Oh Francis Tong, i will miss you.

Everyday passed like this, and we don’t keep track of it. And now, the days have ran out for this routine to repeat. What’s left is just the memories of each other that’s etched in our hearts.

Then came prom, a night to remember. I remember a week before we were frantically shopping for clothes and all. So excited for our big day, and when it finally came, it whizzed by so quickly without even bidding farewell. But we all looked great, felt great, and had a great time. My first prom ever… Au Lang SIGH again.

Climbed Mount Everest after prom for our own post-prom party. Wanted to go to the Timbre @ Old School but shingz for us it closed at 11.30pm. It was really a bloody long flight a stairs and the girls climbed up and down in heels sia. Respect!

2008 – 2009

 

As i laid on the bed, i thought of many things. My heart raced and a smile lit my face. I was hopeful. But as experience calls for it, hope often leads to disappointment. I told myself to snap back to reality.

I remembered a close friend telling me once about how his friend refused to fall in love with the girl of his dreams. They were very close friends. To him, to fall in love with her was betraying her trust she had in him, the trust of being just a close friend.
