those crescent times

and so. i was readin my niece's blog and she studies in crescent girls. i love readin her blog and reminisce the good *and bad* ol times some 5 yrs ago...she had a totally pure malay blog too for their malay lesson thingy. canggih, no? it was funny how she portrays everything in malay.
"maklumlah peperiksaan akhir tahun kami akan datang dan kami semua harus mengosongkan meja kami..."
haha
been eons since i wrote in malay and wen i read more, i cant help but smile wen she talked abt how she discovered the "tempat di atas kutubkhannah.." wer der were benches for us to sit and study...
i had sad memories der cuz i remembered runnin out of class after being sarcastically remarked by mrs yee for failing chemistry test...i ran exactly to that spot outside library upstairs der. and cried and cried and cried. i knew suria, farena and fidza were lookin for me but i guess the place was too "terceruk"
i remembered in sec 2, most of my mates went to malacca and i had to stay behind because dear mum wont let me go. i wrote letters to leyana, suria and lynn charoenchai, i think. i muz haf sounded soooo sappy...and they came back with souvenirs for me.
den in sec 4, all those NCC peeps went to Ophir cept me...haha. i muz appeared so fragile den.
i remember all the letters we wrote to each other *i still keep them*,the angel mortal game. the sheepishness at meetin ur favourite senior.the crying in the toilet until ratna had to climb over e wall/door to get to that particular person...the going home together,the ice cream from commonwealth mrt *corn for fidza!!*, the chocolates at Mobil which still exists, the rotunda, the carpooling to skul....
it's all comin back to me now...
NCC gave me many many bitter sweet memories but i love e fancy drill we performed e best. i love e no.1 uniform we wore. and i love the friends i kept to date.
my 4 yr-same-class buddy had to be Suria and i love her to bits! she's always positive. "hakuna matata" attitude. and im glad i still contact her.
so does anyone remember discovery camp??? ley wud perhaps rmbr my sulky face wen i din get to stay in the same room as she, suria and lynn. haha. my childishness. terserlah. remember how we sobbed and sniffed wen David played that Michael Jackson song and did reflections?
haha.
how abt mr Max Tan??? who got fired at the end of the day for bringing students to his home for tuition...or sth like dat...
double haha.
sec one was rough for me. wad wif e NCC senior stormin into class on e ferst week of skul and demanded the NCC girls of 1/9 to own up for callin her fren a toad. mann...as a kid den, i was taken aback and disappointed that my class became the victim. der were only 3 NCC gals from 1/9.....me, Andrea and another one i forgot her name..and we were all so innocent ke babai la siak.
i can go on and on i tel u...but i wish to do so wen i meet u gerls...yes, the perempuan melayu terakhirs..namely awin, elli, jila, ratna, maz, ley,fidza, farena and the likes...
perhaps we can count down the new year together, shall we?

Ah...
Crescent days...

I got an adrenaline rush and even thanked the cabby when he drove the cab past Crescent the other day!

Those were the days...

And dear, hope you turned out alright after such a 'traumatic' experience in Sec 1. I wonder who the senior was...

*dew smiles on*

Put some meat into those bones of you-know-who, would you?! hehehe
