Screams


10.25.2008
These two years in the same class together was really memorable, and I mean it. I know it sounds pretty cliche because if you see Sec2 Cedarians blogs, we're all saying the same thing, and all of us mean it. (: (Yes, I know I'm sort of not making any sense but I'm not in the right state of mind today so, please, forgive me.)
The First Year
The first year, we were sec ones, new to the school and everything, I was pretty surprised all of us managed to bond quite well and get along together. (: Orientation left many wonderful memories, singing all those weird but enjoyable songs and cheers as one great cohort, and we were all celebrating together to look forward to a new year with new great people after leaving our primary schools, some from Jurong, others from Punggol. Lee and Sherly, I remembered, we the loudest people in class at the beginning, and I sort of thought they were pretty annoying at first because, you know, in primary co-ed schools, we normally do not speak a lot, that's called like acting cool or something, but almost soon I realised keeping shut was quite stupid. So nevermind, I became one of the loudest in the class, together with my PARTNER IN CRIME, Sharmaine! (: I remember Sharmaine can't spell "Partner", she'll spell it as "patner". Pat pat pat. Haha. At that time, Christie Cheng was still with us, Christie the Art Genius. (: Muslihah was the monitress, and so on. I know Mus, you had a lot a lot of pressure from home and school, but I'm really proud that you pulled through with a great smile (: I'm proud of you. (: I remember all the crap things we did. (: As a class, and we pulled pranks on the teachers, and I remember how Mr Khoo favoured the people who sat in front. And how he taught us the topic on Sex and The Body. You know, THE BODY. And his face with birght red when he tried teaching us graphs but most of us seemed like Mr Khoo was teaching us Japanese or something. Mrs Jai was pregnant, and Ms Kaur took over. (: Mingzhen's sister taught us music when our previous teacher migrated. Mrs Lowe picked on me, Mus and Sharmaine and we all detested her guts. And my beloved IPW group, SPCA was really really fun. (: Then Christie left when Sec2 came.
The Second Year
So then, new year, new teachers, new classmates, new school, new stuff. We went Cameron Highlands, and I bet we all had a really great time there. I know some of us gathered in a room and talked about some really unpleasant stuff happening in the class, and we were all really upset and cried. I know it's really hard to see these things happen sometimes, like when it's not the way we want things to turn out but some things just don't go our way at times. But we must stay strong and think of a solution, the best one to solve a problem, and pull through. Just be happy. (: I remember the nice dried strawberries there, and I'm still craving for them. (: Mrs Franklin was a naggy but really great Form, hinting for Geog here and there. I remember I failed Geog 7/20 one time, and she chatted with me and encouraged me to do better. And Mrs Lam and her beloved parrot and weird stories, we'll all miss her a lot, because she might be leaving next year. And Mr Tay with the sarcasm that's oh so funny, the SENTOSA joke. (: I remember I got punished by him and stoofd outside the class, to tell the truth, I was quite scared. We had Mr Sng, the self claimed hottie that attracted dozens of girls with his sweet words. WHATEVER, MR SNG. Please spare us the crap. (: Came along Ms Siew, the nice nice teacher sort of teacher. (: At least she made a little sense in Literature. (: Mdm Faridah, the suan-er teacher. Always suan people. She didn't really make any History sense to me, but, nevermind, it's history anyway. (: Mr Hou Liang, the gay. He was a really nice and good teacher. (: Oh, and then Phoebe C. joined us, she was pretty quiet. Laugh more next year! (:
I know our class had some problems, against some people and some clique problem. But I believe what's over is over and let the past be history. Let Mdm Faridah do the rest of the work. (: Haha.
2I, I love you! (:
