Nostalgia

Suddenly feel so nostalgic, of the life i was experiencing before i became a working adult person. I could still remember the pre-exams days in Uni, trying to catch up with one term's worth of school work in 2-3 weeks, staying till 9pm+ to even 2-3am to mug in school (only when the panic button was pressed and exams were coming), having an enjoying smoke break behind Lecture Theatre 6 with one or two of my buddies. And also days spent in lecture theatres sitting at the last row of LT 7 doing stuff like sleeping/eating breakfast/talking/reading newspaper/more talking, basically everything except trying to get what the hell the lecturer is talking about.



Flash back further, i could remember the mornings during recess and after school in JC, playing street soccer on the basketball court, playin LAN games such as Quake en masse in the classrooms' computers ,skipping morning lessons to enjoy breakfast, how cold the main lecture theatre was during the first lecture of the day, been late for morning assembly, oversleeping on the bus to school etc. Strangely, i don't recall what i studied then, perhaps mainly due to the fact for the first time of my life then, i was actually struggling with school work. That period of time i realised (finally) that i'm not a genius nor am i someone who is hardworking.


Perhaps the best time in school was the time i spent in secondary school? It was always special for anyone during those teenage years; when boys discover girls are not irritating creatures at all; when perhaps for the first time of my life then, i had some accomplishments, some sports and games that i liked; people that i liked and disliked; crushes n relationships;class excursions and outings giving a kind of togetherness or maybe called 'class spirit'?; and oh yes, the dreaded public spanking speaking sessions.

Haizz, school life is good. I miss it.

    Memories.. I'm sure you're developing a new one all the time.. Cherish every moment in making history.

    Oh.. and recess in JC is so called "break" ?? Someone correct me if i'm wrong.. =)
