LIMYANJUN,
in order to get this post done i went to dig up all the old photos of us since primary school and i kept chuckling to myself how you always looked the same, 'cept for now.lol.
so this brings me to the point of dedicating this entry to you (:
lets write this down in chronological order until the memories in my head gets hazy.
1999:primary 3
got separated from my primary2 classmates and went to class 3/6 and got to know you and your goody two shoes self who became the class moniteress.i can't remember how we got to know each other or how we started talking but we've kinda stuck together ever since.
you, sarah cheong, stacy, janice, sze ying and me were in the same clique since then till the end of primary 4.haha it was so cool having a clique in primary school because every time we went for recess, we would laugh the heartiest, talked the loudest and were always running to the canteen to ''chop'' seats.
2000:primary 4
this was the year i became the teacher's pet(beams) hahaha, you were still the bloody moniteress and somehow we got closer.the sleepovers at my place with you, audrey and janice.the times we spent at sarah cheong's place watching cartoons, high five(it wasthe in thing back then, c'mon we were only 10year olds)and how her dad would always sent us home in his car, the trips to stacy's house where she ever being so creative, taught us how to make our own slippers using cardboard and drawing blocks.we also got into the habit of writing autograph books, bringing our sticker books to class and exchanging only hello kitty stickers.
we even joined the same cca, girl's brigade and i think we were in the same squad if i'm not wrong.haha we were pretty much inseparable.during the later part of the year all of us kinda stopped eating full meals during recess and just starved ourselves with the herbalchicken wings from the malay store.
haha and i was so happy when i received my birthday present from you that year because i really wanted a new autographbook and that's exactly what you got me, together with a tara panda photo frame!
remember the time when that idiot wee sheng stole my winnie the pooh school bag and hid it underneath the staircase? i was so panicky,yet you just told me not to get worried and just tell the teacher, i was and still am intrigued by your "you know i really don't have anything to worry about" personality.
2001:primary 5
i've got a perfect title for this one.this time period was also known as the separation.you got into 5/5 while i was in 5/3.haha i was so depressed that i made friendship bands every single day during chinese period.
2002:primary 6
psle was the bomb, attended the awfully pathetic graduation night with the clique and everything else in between was a blur.
2003:secondary 1
this period was known as "the beginning of it all".everyone started calling me baoya ):we got into the same class again, so it was like oh hi its you again and i'm so glad that you are in my class sort of feeling.everything fell into place when we entered into sec 1.you, suhailah, rafidah and me formed a clique and it was just us four back then.
got to know jess and sharmaine that year too.
and remember this was our first time participating in talent time and we had to do a dance?the multiple dance practices at brenda's house carpark (seriously what the hell were we thinking man, dancing at the carpark?! rofl)
2004:secondary 2
we superly majorly bombed our exams, and you, suhailah and me were talking about how we might be playing seesaw and flying fox at the ite if we didn't buck up on our results.lol it is hilarious thinking about it now.we also attended the same math tuition because i recommended it to you and look how much your math improved thanks to me (:
okay so new addition to the clique this year, vanessa, so that makes it the 5 of us.
did our last dance together with the guys during talet time and boy did i enjoy myself! we were dancing to the school of rock yo!
one thing i'd like to ask you really, why don't you ever get upset or angry or pissed?there was once where the guys took your bag to the guys toilet and left it there for ages before returning it to you and theythrew your stationery around the classroom, i seriously have no idea how you could tahan them and their childish acts.this, you've got to teach me!
during this period i remembered it was my first time crying in class because those sickening boys kept throwing my pencil case around, seriously they are like some monkeys, anyway, and i squeezed eye drops into clement's mouth because he bullied me.LOL.
2005:secondary 3
another new addition to the clique, xiuz!you, xiuz and me bonded over geog notes and colour pens, laughed too much and a little too loud that miss lim had to shut us up.this was the year we went to the same church! so i was practically seeing you 7 times a week for that whole year unless either one of us is sick or had something on etc.
the year we started to rebel, folding of PE shirts when we were supposed to tuck them into the shorts,short skirts, folded up ankle socks, double sided taped name tags because we were damn suay and had to wear the ironed on ones.
was it during this year that you vomitted and no one dared to eat the chicken rice from school? HAHAHA.
this was how i would describe you:
"she hasn't changed much since primary school till now, except that she looks like a beaver, not the cute kind, the kind that bites people's head off."
2006:secondary 4
you know that whole thing about me and he shall not be named, kept us apart(sorry i sound so much like a lesbian but i am not).all the lies and everything, i was and am really sorry.thank goodness you girls did not gave up on me and were and still is alwaysthere for me.
thxverymuch.
the decisions we made for the future:hospitality (it's funny how all of us were dying to choose hospitality if we got into poly, yet when it was time to make a decision, no one chose it.)
2007:poly year 1 (the separation)
all 5 of us got separated.su and du in srjc and yjc respectively, you were in business, vanessa in retail, xiuz in accounting and me inbiomed inf&engineering.
meet ups were only done when all of us were free which was rare and i think the only times we were ever free to meet up was during either one's birthday.
haha remember how xiuz and i suprised you at your place last year?you were asleeped and boom we smashed the "not so creamy after all" cake at your face!woman your reaction was priceless!
2008:poly year 2 (possibly the best year ever)
shar, jess, xiuz, you and me started hanging out more often and we've all grown so comfortable with each other.
things i remember about you at this point: always trying to spoil market whenever we write cards, the retarded ovaltini man you always draw during sermon, and how you always type
"tu zai" / "baoya" all the bloody time and sprayed them in almost every single one of your
sms-es like fairy dust.
yes woman, this is specially meant for you and only you because it is your birthday and i'd write more, but there are so many memories that come to mind and i feel i wouldn't do them any justice by mentioning them in a sentence or two.
and now, after 9 years we're still thanking each other "for the smiles, the laughs, the 'please dont cry's and the 'are you crying yet?'s the hugs, the support, the shoulder to lean on, the photos, the openess, the closeness, the shopping trips and for sitting next to me when everyone else walked away". and also all the times you have your sneezing fits for no apparent reason.
i'll always be here for you, no matter where here may be (in Singapore or anywhere else in the world). i'll always be here for you when you need complain, when you need to cry, and when you need to talk about anything, really.
i love you much walnutz :) we've made it this far my favourite cream top alien...why stop now?
ANYWAY,
HAPPY EIGHTEENTH BIRTHDAY MARY LIM YAN JUN!!(please learn to act your age luh hahaha)
