stf 959 reunited!

In the contact details card which Muniza asked us to fill up during the reunion, there was one difficult question.

Iya betul susah..anak Rom pun berkerut-kerut nak menjawab nih

Owh..ok,,actually there were 2 difficult questions. The first one, sequentially, was "I am _________ at __________." People got a little confused at first as it could be just anything from "I am flabby at the stomach" to "I am such a drama queen at our high school reunion" to "I am in love at first sight" to "I am a murderer at large" or simply "I am mad at Moon for making us confess things to her!"...before some smart girls figured out that the right answer was supposed to sound like "I am a CEO at the biggest company in the world". Huhuuh..

But the real difficult question in question was "Write down one incident that you remember happened in STF". Man...everybody was kind of went blank looking at that question. Was it because after a whole night  of chit-chattering, screaming, posing, cam-whoring and laughing your heart out, your mind just won't function right,, or was it because when you have so much memories, be them good, bad, funny or scary, your mind would just blend them all together and store it at a small piece of your brain that when people ask "How was your schooling years?" you can only recall it as "the superb 5 years of my life!".

Almost gave up, I just simply jot down "too many!" at first.

But then, considering Moon's effort to compile this contact book (ceh ceh ceh! ;p but seriously Moon, we're thankful of your brilliant idea and efforts), I forced my brain to think of one, and decided to write down whatever incident that crossed my mind.

So the incident that I forced down was "sports day". But surprisingly, after writing that, suddenly all the memories throughout the 5 years spent at STF came gushing through my mind like water flowing rapidly down the stream, that I felt like I almost choked trying to spell them out in words.

"sports day; escape prep petang pastu kena tangkap dengan warden pastu kena prep kat Bilik Warden; kena kejar dengan bapak beruk sampai depan Dining Hall; datang lambat senaman pagi pastu kena duduk kat luar tennis court; escape P.E dekat Gym pastu kena tangkap dengan Cik Ramlah pastu kena lari netball court 12 round; stay-up kat Dining Hall; round compound; hockey practice"...but damn the space on that card was limited! But yeah, Moon asked for 1 incident only after all..

What a school life it had been!

Years gone by and counting, all those now are just sweet memories that may not immediately come up when recalled, but they surely will stay someplace in your mind that maybe on some quiet days, they may just resurface at their own will and bring smiles, laughters or even tears to you.

srikandi

I only found out one night after terawih early Ramadhan that Cikgu Azizah who lives on the same street in my neighbourhood is also a Srikandi. I was sipping the hot teh susu during moreh when Emak suddenly pointed at me and said, "Haa dia ni lah yang STF dulu.."

Cikgu Azizah and Emak was walking towards the moreh table.

"Ooo yang ini..batch mana?"

"Saya 95-99. Eh,,Cikgu pun STF jugak ke? Tahun berapa?"

"Batch 69. Lepas tu sambung lagi Form 6 kat situ sampai 71."

"Oo..30 tahun kemudian baru saya masuk situ. Heheh"

"Haa yela..dah lama dah kitorang keluar sekolah. Eh baru aritu our batch buat 40th years reunion. Ada laa 40 orang datang..Seronok betul jumpa balik diorang. Even Pn. Badiah, Pengetua kitorang masa tu pun datang"

Wow! I thought. 40th years reunion!

Just imagine..having a high school reunion lepas umur pencen...

Mesti ada cite: "Ko apa khabar,,aritu buat heart bypass kan?...Lutut aku dah sengal2 la skang,,xlarat dah nak kejar cucu...Nampak fit je,,amik supplement apa?...Eh last month ada terjumpa si polan masa kitorang sama2 buat dialisis"

Or on a lighter note: "Berapa dah cucu skarang?...Posting last sekali before pencen aritu katne?...Eh dapat pegi haji kan tahun ni? Sama la kita!...Haa dapat dah kad kawin anak ko tu. Anak yg last kan ni,,kena la aku datang"

I hope Srikandi 959 will be able to have a 40th reunion as well. And have a Jubli Emas the next decade, and even more gatherings afterwards.

Ohh...kepada yang sedang buat kira-kira/deduksi mudah untuk soalan "if 40 people attend a 40-year reunion, how many people attend 10-year reunion?" (wah tiba-tiba soalan berbunyi PPSMI walhal sekolah tahun 90-an dulu belum guna pun lagi PPSMI), I would like to stress here that 10 shall not be the answer.

So let's make our first step by making the 10-year reunion a glorious one! Those girls who haven't confirmed your attendance, please RSVP quickly at the reunion blog or via Facebook okies!

Together we join hands to reach our goals: towards being a bunch of cranky bitchy old ladies joyfully attending their Golden Jubilee reunion!  ;p
