First Impressions
I spent the whole day out! Just a rest b4 another roller-coaster ride of work. Isn't it like yesterday when we just entered NUS as puppy-eyed youths, fresh from JC & NS? I had been imagining how will it be like if I can go back in time to the first HY1101 lect and see how all of us History majors were like. Wouldn't u guys be so shocked if I call u by name then when we were not supposed to have met? Haha...
But I still remember some of u, tho I was anti-social all the way till year 4. I remember that Ching Ling, Jamie and Shaoyun were in the same HY1101 tutorial as me. I still recall that Shaoyun back then had short hair, which looked nice on him hehe. Then Jamie got a very high grade for our first History mid-term test. As for Ching Ling, I remember talking with her outside the tutorial room and she saying that SE1101 was fun becos they watched lots of movies. I oso remember Nadine (duh! She was my classmate from pri school). And how can I leave out Sophia.
Then from 2nd year, I remember Shi Zhi, who was so nice to facilitate the Film and History discussion. And I saw Andrew and Joo Cheong always together. There was also Johan, whom I first met in the India module and whom I thot was an Irish becos of his St. Patrick's shirt(but I was partially right haha he is half-Irish). I also saw him performing during the NUS Choir concert that year. I oso remember Ermita who used to hang out with him. And that year I saw Weijin for the 1st time through Kathy. Oh how I wish Kathy had been with us for the 4th year! And there was Hoe Yin, who always sat with this pretty gal called Carrie, I think. And Cher Kiat I got to know from our Total War simulation.
I met Natasha in Year 3 from Pre-Modern Japan. And oso Shu Huei. And I remember Soon Onn presenting in front of the class. And Leonora. I saw Yue Heng during the MOE interview and Religion in China and Japan. That was also the first time I saw Samantha, whom I had already thot was pretty hehe! And I oso remember Wei Leong since our module's trip to temples, becos he has this distinctive look. And Sarah who was introduced to me by my JC classmate And oso Jeramine from History in Fiction. Oh and Yanchun and Christopher! The rest, as they say, is history.
Isn't it amusing when we try to dig out our memory to see what we remember? I would love to hear what was, if any, u guys' first impression of me!
Let me leave u with another song:
I read a note my grandma wrote back in 1925
Grandpa kept it in his coat
And he showed it once to me
He said,"Boy, u might not understand
But a long, long time ago
Grandma's daddy din like me, no
But I loved ur grandma so."
We had this crazy plan to meet
And run away together
Get married in the first town we came to and live forever
But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet instead
I found this letter and this is what it said
If u get there b4 I do
Don't give up on me
I'll meet you when my chores r through
I don't know how long I'll be
But between now and then
Till I see you again
I'll be loving u
Love me
I'll sign off here. I wish you a pleasant evening!
