Update of Previous Class Outings

4th Outing - Mid Valley on 17th July

5th Outing - One Utama on 30th July

29th July - Tutorial Class Basketball Outing

9 out of 14 from our tutorial class... plus one more from T5... wah, quite good eh for a basketball game that I only heard people talked about during the last few minutes in class before we all left school on Monday... (even though I heard about the 'outing' as early as Tuesday the previous week...)

Anyway, it was a reminiscence of the good old days of my youth... not really about basketball... as the last time I really played basketball was during my Form One days in Sam Tet... But rather I am talking about the feeling of being a teenager again... with a bunch of young innocent teenagers (haha...) who want to enjoy themselves together with a group of friends, some of them whom they have never met each other before two months ago...

During Discrete Maths tutorial the tutor told us that about us being a 'more livelier' class (from what I heard)... compared to the other class that she teaches. She did mentioned that her other class has a very high percentage majority of Foundation students. Then someone mentioned about us being made up of people from different backgrounds... thus making it easier for us to 'click'....

Don't know la... all things mentioned above are just my opinions... I am just trying to enjoy myself at this moment as I REALLY REALLY DON'T KNOW what is going to happen when our new semester starts, and how our lives going to be at that time... I am still figuring that part out...

23rd July - First Accounting Test in almost 4 1/2 Years

Urgh... terrible...

Thought I could write something since I have never balanced an account before during exam... But no mood already..

Thousands Apologies to my 5S6 and U6F Classmates

I am very sorry to all my 5S6 and U6F classmates...

It seems that I have not been keeping in touch with you guys as frequently as I should...

And it is a problem, my problem, my fault.

Saying that you'll be all in my heart is just not enough...

But honestly, you guys will always have a special place in my heart,

I'll always treasure the times that we had back then.

Till we meet again... I wish you guys all the best on what's next to come....

20th July - 5S6/2005 Gathering

Ha... finally after almost one whole year in the waiting, we have finally one gathering.... Let's see... almost one gathering per year... 2006 was at Bangsar, 2007 was at Sunway... and this year was at Chee Hong's house....=)

Somehow it coincided with another gathering that I attended barely two days prior, but with a lot more people.. DEFINITELY a lot more... Basically the entire weekend was about gatherings, wasn't it? Haha... Didn't do anything... And still got Discrete Maths Mid-Term, Accounts Mid-Term and Programming Assessment... all within three days!! So 'qiao'...

Again, I'll let photos do all the talking. Here's the website: www.5science6.blogspot.com and it will lead you to the photos.

It was a potluck, and everyone was ''expected' to bring something to CH's house. Then we ate... we talked... we chat... we played games... some like Dom cracked lame jokes... (really really lame I tell you...) Take photos... and also played some games... One game I remembered was the 'One two dum' game... It was a bit funny to hear how they say the word 'dum'... And another game which I was really confused about until this day was the 'Mafia' game. I really forgotten how to play the game as I was typing this out.

"Everyone seems to be the same... didn't change at all..." That was what I heard in the car as KS drove us back. Yeah... That includes me... the same type of people who don't really speak much... wonder will I be able to change?

18th July - U6F Reunion

First of all, thanks a lot Kai Ming for planning the occasion.... We had another U6F class gathering just barely one month after our previous gathering at Wern Chiet's house. This time though, it was a small affair, as a lot of us have went to public universities from all around the country, some of them as far as Sarawak.

So, this time we had a small gathering at the Poh brothers' apartment. Our host, Kai Ming ordered pizzas and soft drinks for us. When I went there about 7.30pm, there's were just a few of us there. Asked Kai Ming on the people who are coming, not surprised to know a few who said will be coming... given that many of us are away.

From what I think, this would probably be the last time that we can gather together for a very long time. From experience, i.e. my Form Five class, after almost two years after we graduated from Form Five we only had like one gathering per year. 2006 was at Bangsar organized by Florence, 2007 was at Sunway organized by Wan Xin, and this year will be on this coming Sunday at Chee Hong's house, organized by Chee Hong, Dominic and Li Ee. (More on that on my coming post.)

But of course, post-Form Six get-together are more often since we are still not studying yet. Anyway, I for sure had a great time at the reunion PARTY.. I think everyone was in a jolly mood that night (was it because of the boozes?)... knowing that we are taking the next step into a new chapter in our lives--university. Felt like we were still young teenagers, who will never grow up to become adults... haha...

All night was about pizza eating, liquor drinking, cracking jokes, chit chatting... pushing people down the pool =)... not some serious stuff though... it was as though we were like meeting up each other every other day... which was really nice to me...

Didn't take a photo of all of us in a picture though.. Sayangnya...

Oh dear... is this the last time we will meet up? I heard someone mentioned something about 31st August... Looking forward to that if that is true..

Aftermath

Why do I feel like more and more people are leaving? Or am I just freaking out myself? I know people will start complaining that the course do not suit them... but I think the few must be feeling disappointed for not being able to go to Kampar.... Don't know la... But for now I still think I can still 'hang on'... I am actually taking it one week at a time...

14th July - Going to Kampar? Not going? Going? Not going?

The verdict: We are not going to Kampar next year, after all. We won't be going there in 2010, or even 2011...

Honestly, how do I feel? Urgh... At one second, I felt like my world has changed. But the next thing that I did was to close my eyes for a while, and then opened them up again. Life goes on, I said to myself. Everything seems to be like normal after that. And I know it has to be.

Maybe because tests and mid-terms are on the way. Maybe I am more worried about them...

7th July - Class 3rd Outing

Class' third outing was at Mid Valley again. Most of those who went stayed back for Hancock the movie. After buying the tickets, we had lunch in Kim Gary (a few of us went bowling though instead of having lunch with us... ) Didn't join them for the movie though... coz I had an appointment later that night. Anyway, will try to join in next time...

28th June - Visit to UPM

It was like any ordinary Saturday morning. I woke up really late... and virtually wasted the entire morning doing nothing... reading the newspaper while eating my breakfast at a speed that is almost ten times slower than ordinary university days. Suddenly, Mom called me on the phone.."Sheng Hung! Are you going for the public u thingy today??"

"Err... what public...oh!!! Today ah?" I suddenly realized that it was the day where new undergraduates of public higher education institutions (IPTA) register into their respective residential colleges today. (No... don't get me wrong my fellow Form Six classmates, I knew you guys were going to be entering public uni that weekend, but I mistook Sunday to be the date...)

It was the fourth Saturday of the week, and my father worked half day that day. So, after picking him up from the office, Mom, Dad and I drove ourselves down to Serdang where my campus is located. (One university but two campuses; the other one is in Sabah.) The first place that we went to was the residential college that I am supposed to register myself in ('unfortunately' I decided not to take up the offer). Yeah... yeah... there were the usual registration booths at the main section but we did went up and have a look inside the hostel. Each of the rooms in it was actually small... two person per room. Wanted to take a picture of it but couldn't. But we did went for a bite at the cafeteria... errr.... like dat lor... what can one expect?

Before we left, we drove around the campus and had a look at the various faculty campuses within the university grounds. Basically what we saw were buses and buses carrying people from all states into the various campuses... students who came with their families, with each of the family members helping him/her to carry things such as blankets, bags, clothes and stuff like that... students bersalam-salaman with their parents... What a sight. (Yeah, it will happen to me sooner or later...)

"SO.... UTAR or UPM??" Mom and Dad asked me as we left the university compound. I did not answer, but rather smiled at them. After 'a moment of silence', we burst out in laughter. The clock finally ticked at 5pm. The registration was now closed. There's no turning back now, I told myself. It's First Class Degree or nothing else.
