Today was my primary school class gathering. It started off at West Coast CC where they played basketball while I watched. As usual, less than 10 of us were there. And as usual, I had the premonition that it was going to be another failed class gathering where we'd end up just walkin aimlessly in town.

And, as usual, I was right.

We headed for Cineleisure for a movie, and after a long discussion and suggestions and rejections, we ended up with watching Best Bet. 3 people had to re-watch it again, and unfortunately I was one of them. But heys, for the love of Social Studies, in the name of compromises and accomodations, I have no other choice, do I?

Anyways, 5pm, after the show, it was time for the traditional neo-print session. So 11 people squeezed into one small cubicle and, well, it was quite fun lah actually. But as usual we ended up with the macro-size neoprint photos becus we had to divide into 11 sets for 11 people.

So then we aimlessly found ourselves in Sakae where some ppl suggested a buffet dinner. But it was not open. So we drifted out, and somebody suggested eating at Swensens. Being in financial difficulty at the moment I suggested the food court, and so 11 of us drifted again to Taka. So this was how we drifted about Orchard aimlessly, until someone suggested we go play pool at the never-popular Ginza Plaza at West Coast.

Yepp I had no objections lah, since I live in West Coast anyway. We ended up at Ginza in the end, and half the group had to sneak in becus they were underaged. Ha but I can walk through the front door becus I am of age. Wahaha.

So that was how my class gathering went. Like any usual class gathering we had for the past 4 years.

But heys, okay lah, I admit, I had fun. It was fun to tell lame jokes with my old classmates, esp the girls, again. It was, miraculously, fun to drift around with ppl I’ve known during my most important years. And, it wasnt as awkward as I thought it'd be. Everyone was talkin with ease. Yepp I'm glad the bond's still there, and I hope it always will be.
