We had our first class gathering ever since we weren't an official class any more yesterday night, 9th Jan 2010, organised by Ben!
It was sad that many couldn't come or weren't even in the country, but at least those of us who came had a good time!
After tuition I went to near Xiaowen's house, to eat lunch. She also bought this takoyaki, but sadly her piece had no tako! So ridiculous! She'd made the jelly already, and we found that it could be jam-packed together so as to stack three layers of helly into my one tupperware box!
And we also watched stuff as she connected her laptop to the tv, making everything BIGGER :D Then we left her house at about 5pm or so to go to AMK Hub to the NTUC to get the utensils, plates, drinks and some fruit syrup because the jelly was slightly tasteless.
We met Rachel there, who helped to carry, and we chionged across the road the moment the green man lit up, because the 74 had already reached the bus stop! Finding the condo was easy enough, though finding the function room required more walking.
AND... we were the first ones there! I was surprised, because I expected Ben to be there already, but he was still at home making the food, with some other guys I guess.
So we just sat there waiting and talking until Kai Xin and Kai Qi came, followed by Xin Yuan, then Ben called Xiaowen to tell us to help take the things from HIS parents CAR. I'm so jealous! He got to drive!
Right, so his car had all the beehoon and ice and other stuff, and Gerard and Jiayi were with him. It took us so long to find the mysterious staircase leading to the car park! Many thanks to the friendly resident who showed us!
After we'd laid the tables and started pouring drinks, I think the people who came after us were Daniel, Wu Si, Rongrong, Daixi, Terence, Jessica, Justin and Jeremy. It was fun being able to talk to everyone after so long!
After a lot of phototaking, I was tempted to go home with Jess since her father was here to pick her up, but decided not to in the end. Then we began playing games prepared by Ben! I applaud his efforts!
So the first task was to write down the names of everyone in the class next to their register number, and their secondary school. I confess I don't know the names of the scholars' schools! Just put Vietnam and PRC! But anyway I finished first, followed by the joint Daniel & Xin Yuan, then Xiaowen. But everyone was copying from each other anyway!
The next thing was a 40 question quiz on events in our IP life, some easy, some ridiculously tough!
E.g. what did we do for Funtasia 2? Everyone remembers the Haunted House :)
E.g. who was our IH2103 teacher? I didn't even know what SUBJECT that was!
E.g. what was Jiayi's rank before entering university? GUY-BIASED QUESTION.
After which the girls received an education on army stuff :D stars, crabs, bars, chevrons, OCS, Specs, and Man!
It was really fun, and we all helped to clean up afterwards, and split up between those going to the bus stop towards the west and those going to the east in Ben's car. Kai Qi was taking a cab anyway, so I went with her, but didn't have enough change to pay for my trip! And she was so nice, saying it wasn't necessary!
I've been blessed to have all these friends from school, all really nice people, and to be able to meet up with them after a year shows how we've grown, and had new experiences, and that we're still good friends!
Thanks to all the blogs i referred to (countless) for html code help :) (esp. cyn' and sixseven)
