5D Reunion

I never quite realized how much I missed school - well, my friends, at least - til yesterday. My class (5 Dedikasi) had a reunion party at Klang Seafood, which incidentally is owned by the family of my classmate, Shammy. (Note : The food is AWESOME! Best seafood ever... really!)

There weren't many of us... Around 18 (out of 44), and 3 teachers - our class (and BM) teacher, Pn. Aini; our Chemistry teacher, Pn. Chan; and our Biology teacher, Pn. Zakiah. It was a pity that some of the other teachers didn't come. I was looking forward to seeing my History teacher, who's probably one of the coolest teachers I know. Sigh.

That aside, it was fatastic seeing my old classmates again. Some of them have changed so much, it's like - WOW! But most of them are still the same.. and that's really comforting :) What amazes me, though, is how we can still sit down and yak away for 4 hours straight when we haven't seen each other in months!

(Ju Li doesn't count - 4 hours is miniscule when it comes to us and yakking :P).

What's really sad, though, is that after only 3 months, we're already down to 18 at a reunion. After a year, how many will there be? Sigh.

But I must say this - 5 Dedikasi may have been the best academic class, but we were by far the least nerdy of the 5Ds before us (at least, that I've seen :P), what with Insanely Sane in the class... (lol) and we're certainly one of the most successful, as far as SPM is concerned.

We've proven that you can talk about nothing but boys and crack lame jokes while pretending to be in a study group, and still get away with achieving impressive results. No need to study 24/7 and break your back with stress. We've shown that you can be a normal teenager and still get what you want academically. And that is something to be proud of.

God bless you, all in 5D 2004 - you guys are the best, and if I ever forget a single one of you, you have full permission to smash my face in :P
