nostalgia

waking at 6 today. rumbling along the roads. i see people everywhere. but i only noticed..a certain group: white shirt/white shorts, white shirt/blue shorts, white blouse/white skirts; green pinafores, light blue pinafores, dark blue pinafores; light blue blouse/light blue skirt, white shirt/dark blue pants/blue tie, white blouse/dark blue skirts/no tie, off-white shirt/off-white pants, off-white blouse/off-white skirt.

it's been...almost 3 yrs. since i left that place. the place where everything was off-white. even the walls. we could've just learnt our camouflage lessons right there and then. sigh, and she HAD to drive by the place. almost 7 now. the bridge. the bus stop. the big red gate. that i used to climb when i was late. which was pretty often. avoiding student councillors who would copy my name. going for macdonalds and coming back at 10. studying at the concourse. sleeping in the library. on those oh-so-comfy armchairs. sleeping in lectures. being a nuisance in lectures. 'ROXY' --> econs lectures :). having ice jelly in the canteen when people were having lectures. heck! having ice jelly in the canteen when people were having tutorials! winston chai asking me 'how many brothers/sisters i have outside.' after i gave him attitude. told him i got 2 sisters....at home. :). mr seet catching me for kicking a ball in the canteen. then catching me for wearing 'low slung' pants. then catching me with 'too-baggy' shirt. then catching me with no belt. then catching me with no collar pin. then catching me with long hair. all within 2 min. leephuimanded. TEG vs 3M. 'GALAXY'. BAH CHOR MEE AUNTIE! LAKSA BOYS/BAHCHORLERS. the memories just kept coming back. sigh....i miss that place. those 2 yrs. were awesome.
