Part 3 – (1995 – 1998)
— Strong Bonds —
Yishun Sec.. Sec 1E6.. i participated in Badminton.. almost made it to the School team, but i decided to go to Volleyball.. and I din regret at all! coz it brought me some very good times too! built up some very strong friendships.. gals we hav Meisi, Yishan, Ruyi, Audrey, Lingmei and myself.. haa.. 6 of us.. formed the volleyball sch team.. cannot imagine, whole sch team in a class.. 2E7!! hahaa who can beat us at inter-class volleyball tournaments?! wahahah.. =p my greatest class ever.. hahaa.. and we realli represented sch to take part in competitions wor.. but aiya lousy la.. no coach no anythin.. we juz lost after 2-3rounds.. keke.. but then.. it’s stil a valuable experience! we been thru alot alot of trainings though.. reali tough trainings given by the senior volleyball players.. running, pumping, jumping, etc..

Yishan brought us to know her family, her relatives.. her cousins.. her friends.. Xiaohui, Jocelyn, Ah Bee, Ah Ge, Zhixiong, Ah Boon… widened my circle of frenz greatly!! everyday after sch, we all go over to her hse.. and play volleyball at her void deck.. we frequently hang out ard there.. occasionally visit Jurong Bird Park, Mandai Zoo, Sentosa, Sembawang Shoppin Centre pineapple rice.. and held countless bbqs and outings together.. we will sure celebrate together any special events.. birthdays, xmas, new year..etc. Until NOW, we still keep in touch..=)

— Chicken Pox, Gastric Pains —
had all of them in Sec 2! suffereed greatly.. coz i missed school badly.. bein “locked” at home during chicken pox, even had to move to grandma hse.. coz din wana spread to my bro at home.. during the week of gastric pain.. it was deadly painful.. u cant imagine it.. i was at the midst of volleyball training one Monday mornin.. then i suddenly puked.. and then turned so pale.. and cold.. the period of waitin for my dad to come fetch me home was untahanably painful at the sch library!

— Friends, No Friend —
Of coz there were times where you have closer frenz.. but oso sure there will be times where things happen, u drift apart with this and got closer with d other.. childish acts and falling in and out between frenz always happen in sec. sch.. but i was sure.. none of them ever seen me flare up.

— The Best Class Ever —
hmm.. 2E7.. my favourite classmates.. we were the most united.. most sporting.. most fun.. ahaa.. took part in sports day and be the greatest winner.. every event, u will see at least someone frm our class on the Gold/Silver/Bronze.. hahaa.. our class had oso the most popular guys.. ahaa.. the whole big group of them.. playin soccer all the time.. before/after sch and during recess.. the gals next door will always come borrowing txtbooks frm the guys.. hahaa..

i remember our fav. english teacher.. Miss Lim.. first we all made her cry.. and then whole class queued up to go to the staff room and apologize to her.. shocked her to laughter immediately!! and we had very good relations frm then on! end of the yr, we all did a huge puzzle for her~~

another teacher.. who united all of us as one.. was Mdm Toh.. our form teacher! we got soo united juz to make her days difficult.. hahaa.. at Arts lesson, they painted her chair with RED watercolour juz to stain her skirt.. i even remember one of them came to ask me which red to choose.. hahaa.. and another time, they used penknife to slit the black bag for collecting water cans @ arts room.. as she walk, the cans dropped out.. =D.. hmmm wad else.. oh.. during Chinese lesson.. one of them go ask her some questions, while d other will pour those eraser droppings onto her hair.. she din even notice at all!

hahaa.. we had many great teachers.. Mr Anith!(Greatest History teacher cum Displine Master who doted us alot alot).. Mdm Azizah (Geography – a very strict and nice teacher), Mdm Tong(Home Econs – the teacher whom flips gals’ skirts up highly to show u wad is Hemstring -.-), Mr Tan(another History teacher who ‘allowed’ us to cheat with History txtbooks directly beneath the test papers…-.-), Mrs Anshad (Science teacher who doted us too..)…

hahaa.. we all held a bbq and chalet.. the whole big class cramped in ONE chalet room.. hahaa.. we played games, pillowfights, told chain-stories at nite.. the guys even went to the lobby to sleep at the middle of the nite.. i stil remember! i was cramping and shivering at the door on the floor! shld hav followed them to lobby ! these fun lovin times.. one big family.. mi as the lou dao, jingjing as my son, tracy as my lao po, meisi and lingmei as jingjing’s wives.. i will never forget them.. forever kept in my memories..

— Splitting Up —
But Sec2 ended, we all had split to different classes.. my bro din wan me to choose Commerce class.. haa.. and I landed in Arts class.. lucky I had Mdm Lung, my another fav. chinese form teacher.. she reali treated me well too.. she sent me and a few of the students frm other class to a 星期五周报 编辑比赛, we enjoyed the process fully.. haha.. in my Sec.4 class.. almost none of them are keen to study.. I made sure I had to be doubly discplined to study in such an environment.. i was more interested in Arts but be practical, I knew Arts couldnt go far in this sch.. might even fail.. so i chose Food and Nutrition.. had to learn to cook.. haha..

Although i had some nice frenz in Sec 3 and 4.. but once the bell rings, be it recess time or before/after lessons.. I am always with my 2E7 bunch of frenz.. hahaa.. we did continued with our volleyball sessions too.. it was oso back then i got my Panda nick from dear jun.. :-/ haha.. coz at tat time, the guys joined us for volleyball trainings too.. and our friendship carried on as strong for the rest of the 2 years..

— One Shocking News —
There was once i heard a shocking news.. Jocelyn.. Yishan’s cousin.. she met with an accident.. a serious one. The side effects are stil there until NOW. Everyday, we made trips to the K.K.Hospital to accompany her. During Pre-lims.. we brought books to hospital to study together. The nurses there could recognise all of us too. I was really shocked when i saw her.. coz she was in coma.. like dramas, we had to speak to her alot, play music, and gradually she woke up.. but she cant speak.. we had to tok to her alot.. made her response with her fingers.. This was a really shockin experience.. that i rather not have.. coz until now, i dunno how she is.. can she speak already? the last time i saw her 2yrs ago, she still cant… =(

— ‘O’ Levels —
before Os.. suddenly received a letter frm Jiesheng! to my surprise.. reali happy to see tat during tat period of studying.. haha.. tat was oso when he got back in touch with me and peiyu.. but i onli had a tot tat time.. this JS.. no nid study wan ar.. so near to exams le.. stil got mood to write letters.. ahahaa.. well, i worked hard for it.. and i’m satisfied with my results in d end.. well, i din reali get the best grades.. but it was great improvement for me already. From young, my dad teaches me.. 对得起自己就好，尽力就好。 Besides English that got me a D7 (darn..=X).. i got A1 for Chi, A2 for History.. B3 for all the rest of the subjects.. I myself cant believe it too.. coz my maths, chem and geography werent good tattime.. managed to get B3 i oredi v.happy le.. haa.. Mr Anith did as promised.. brought us all out for a meal at Hyatt Hotel.. hehee..

— JC Life —
Hmmm i went to have some fun at the 1st 2-3 mths at YJC.. i got into same class as Siyin and Peiyan again! Renuion since Pri 4!! We really had some CRAZY moments at YJ.. coz to me, i din even consider studying there for long-term.. i juz wana hav fun and have a taste of JC life.. we formed our “Dong Li Di Tie”.. sang our way thru the 3months.. sang during P.E, sang in the hall.. sang basically
everywhere.. hahaa.. they reminded me recently.. I brought alotta laughter to them back then.. they can still rememeber!! but i myself dun remember any of the jokes I said..ahaa..

— Seperation & Decisions —
End of Sec Four.. is another seperation i’ve to go thru.. Our group of six broke up into 2.. bcoz of some misunderstandings between few of them.. sad to say, this knot was not untied till date. The volleyball team is dismissed, coz 6 of us will nv stand on the same side of the court again. it was another round of decision making for myself.. my own future.. Poly/JC? To wait for another year to re-take English or to go ahead risk to Poly but have to make sure I get a C6 and above for retake. anyway, I decided to go Ngee Ann Poly for an IT Diploma.. It kinda decided the path I was going to take.. see till now.. I’m stil in this line.. =D

Before entering poly, was a period of part-timing.. hahaa worked at departmental stores like Oriental, and Seiyu.. earned myself some pocket money.. heehee.. coz from
young, I dun like to take money from parents to buy anything.. I prefer to earn it with my own hands.. hahaa.. and actuali since Secondary days, I’ve always wana take up vacation jobs, but my dad din allow.. and it wasnt easy to find jobs when u’re stil below 16.. ahaa..

— Stepping into POLY —
fortunately, i got to know a grp of v.good frenz in poly too.. Peipei, me, Janice, GL, John and Shaun.. 6 of us.. we always stay together and do tutorials, chit chat, eat, go out together… i remember during one CNY, we had an agreement.. we all dressed up nicely, and went out for a nice dinner.. and also we went to each others’ house to 拜年.. i always remember how shaun calls me shifu during our maths tutorials.. and then we had lotsa fun together.. tokin and laffing abt SuperSunday.. always singin the 金包银 together.. haaa.. and i dun remember why.. but i always shout say i’m going to give birth liao! then they all will laff and fall to the grounds.. hahaa.. reali farnie memories..

tat was all in the first part of my poly life.. towards the 2nd part, totally changed.. i mixed ard with bunny, calvin, kevin, lawrence, eddie and donald.. coz they really acccompanied me at times.. every weekend.. we will meet out at suntec/orchard.. i’m d only gal ard.. well, i guess they almost treated me as a guy.. =X they will go ahead and play CS, while i sit by their sides.. and we will hang out together all the times.. this grp of guys reali bought me alotta laughter.. anytime anywhere.. most memorable.. Mr Bunny.. his Millenia Walk incident.. Unforgettable!! =D to date, we are stil gd buddies.. though most of them are stil in aussie.. but whenever they’re back, we will stil meet up..
