Attended an old classmate's wedding recently. It was a grand Telugu wedding ceremony held in Shah Alam club. Food served is good too, especially the curry chicken. CONGRATULATIONS, Siva & wife !! Been to quite a number of wedding functions tis year. Being in tis age-group, which the old people call them the "ripe" age, the big M is a norm in our vocabulary here.
Also met up with other Form 5 classmates & went for drinks in Q-Bar after the wedding to catch up the old times. Obviously, the first question posed to start up a conversation is "One down, wonder who's next ahh??" Naturally, old skool stories been raised up & discussed. One interesting thing I must say about old skool stories is even though all these stories (mostly dumb incidents, crazy antics etc) are "recycled" over & over again over times, they're always funny & felt great to talk about it.
I dunno bout the others but I'm quite sentimental when talking about being together with old mates during those old skool days. VJ mentioned of him being eager to go to skool everyday to check out wat's up for the day. Everyday seems to be a new day with new things to be discovered together with the gang. I felt that too, VJ...& I'm sure same goes to most of us too.
Tell me for being emo but whenever reflecting those days & comparing against the students these days, I can't help but feeling touched about the camaraderie between all of us. We were ONE & not classifying each other as Chinese, Malay or Indian. We were Akurians (that's our class name)
Those old mates represented part of our own life history. Knowing or unknowingly, memories of them are already permanently etched in our mind. So, keep in touch always with the old skool mates to ensure your mind keep working...:)
