THOSE WERE THE DAYS

Caution: Super duper long post ahead. Prepare some tissues if u want.

outside class 1

Did anyone realized...that these were the only photos we had as a class, with majority of the ppl in it? Look how much we've grown. Some who used to have long hair now have short hair. Those who looked toot toot when we first came in have changed and the word 'TOOT' now, does not exist in their dictionary anymore. And there were those, whose faces we didn't get to see as much as when we were in Year 1.

Here's a recap of my 3 years in TP:

YEAR 1
After screwing up my 'A's, i came to TP. With the fear that i might not be able to click with ppl who's like younger than me by 2 years. Will i get like ostracized? Will i find frens to hang out with? Will i end up hiding in the library alone during my breaktimes? Yeah stop laughing. These were realli my paranoid thoughts that ran through my mind during the AS orientation. I rmb my face was as grumpy as ever during the entire orientation. Then we were introduced to our CP, Alice Ong, and the rest of our class. Tt was when she actualli took the risk and chose me to be the Class Treasurer.

Collecting $$$ from u guys. Appearing in the UltraSupply daily to check out for new notes. Going up and down the entire LT finding ppl to pass them their notes. Making sure everyone gets their notes on time before the lec starts. Occasion frowns when i get too stressed up when the Class Rep wasn't helping at all. Guarding my xiao lu like siao wherever i go cos that's where our class fund was hidden. It was seriously fun despite the hard work.

Do u remember our test tube CCN day? Preparations for the day were chaotic as there were disputes over how many test tubes to buy, how much to sell our test tubes for and bla bla bla. But that particular CCN day was fun with the whole class participating to help. Btw i rmb it was hell for me to walk around the sch cos there were soooooooo many ppl squeezing each other while trying to get to the other side of TP. So there u go, i didn't go for the remaining CCN days ever again.

Sem 1

PIPC & OBC - I rmb one of the lecturers, Dr duno wad, didn't like ppl to talk or even mumble a word during his lectures. So everytime during his lectures, it's so damn slient till u can even hear a pin drop or something. And i forgot how come i got involved with Ignatius. Oops!

HAP - Oh this one. Chimology pls. The most happening lab was the urine collection one. SG, Lynn and I became the victims and donated our urine for wad purpose i couldn't recall. I guess the objective of that urine experiment was to evaluate the Effect of Fresh Urine Samples on the Students' Reactions. Pls draw a graph to show that the darker the urine sample, the more reaction u'll receive from ppl. Cos everyone stared at Lynn's pee which was so freaking dark. She had duno how many cans of apple juice during lunch if i rmb correctly. HAHA.

SFP - Lectures was so dry that my hair almost caught fire. But for labs, it was seriously fun cos i had great lab partners like SG and Da ge. The most fun lab partners i've ever gotten cos we never failed to poke fun at each other while trying to cook for the very first time in labs. This was when Da ge will always nag us to wash our utensils before cooking. And looking at how cheeky me and SG were, Da ge will always be the one who'll end up washing all our utensils and stuff for us. And she has this weird habit of using her hands and not the sponge to do all the washing.

MST 1 - AH cun rmb much though. Just normal ba i think. Neway it was too normal that i cun rmb who taught us this subject. HUR. Eh, is it the same tutor for MST 2? Hmmm..

CSAS 2 - This was the one where i gave a speech on Gay Marriages and it basically left a number of ppl in class mouthwide opened. If u ask me to give the same speech to our class ppl NOW, i'll tell u i dun even have the guts to do so. Cos now we're all so close alr, i will pai seh pls and most prob start my laughing fits like siao.

Sem 2

FC - Stupid subject which i took supp for it. PUI.

BNF - Choo Choo Train's subject where we did most of the studying by ourselves.

MST 2 - Very normal again. But our tutor was very nice. I even waved 'Hi' to him on my last day in sch.

BMIC - Lecture was by Mr Super Mario who has realli cute and fatty hands as shown on the projector screen. And not forgetting Joythi, Jodie's relative. HA, just kidding. Joythi was the most uncomprehensible tutor we've ever had. Like, we cun even interpret WTH she's talking kinda thing. Elizabeth can even teach better than her during our Bmic labs pls. And i rmb how hard we tried to make Joythi angry and made fun of her accent. Oh Da ge, do u rmb tt time u said u wanted to punch Joythi's tummy and see her baby come out? HAHA!!

CSAS 1 - Tutor was duno wad Pek Hoon woman. I rmb she likes our SG alot cos she said he's always so smiley smiley during her class.

UIR - BORING. BORING. BORING. Was forced to take this CDS. Go com lab use internet search engines and play around with it. I rmb there was once when Tofu asked me to entertain her right after UIR class and i was so bored that i asked her to go away. Yeah. UIR was seriously boring lah.

SOCIOLOGY - Uh. Not so bad lah. Tutor was quite nice. This was also when me and Shirleen made frens with the enzyme.

YEAR 2

Hmmm..guess the major event during year 2 was when we had to choose our own electives in sem 2 and everyone got separated and went into different classes. This was when the segregation of Food Sci and Nutrition students came about.

Sem 1

FPQA - Opening ceremony of PBL subject (FPQA) where we started getting lost and couldn't find our way back cos TKB told each group different stuffs. Duh. Shldn't he himself practise quality control and tell all of us the exact same thing?

NLS - Missed the 'Gim Gim laid her hands on SG's body' lab session cos i was on MC. HA!! Oh well. SG realli did the right thing to warn his brother to train his body cos Gim Gim might 'attack' his brother next sem.

CAT Tech - Started cooking up a storm and ate our own masterpieces after every lab.

APFS - Eh normal lah. Mdm Lau was okay okay abt this subject. No stress one.

FI - Taught by Evelyn Lim. Didn't like this subject and all my FI reports laoya one. Totally got turned off when she wore sleeveless all the time and shook the fats on her flabby arms.

PSYCHOLOGY - FUN! Ms Marie Chan was so good tt i din regret taking this suject as CDS. Yeah. Met enzyme in the same class again with me and Shirl.

Sem 2

Luck wasn't kind to me when i made last min changes to my choice of electives and ended up in a different class than the rest who had the same combi as me. Duh. But still had to live with it lah cos i didn't have a choice.

PBPN - Another chimology subject which i tot i wasn't gonna make it.

COMN - This was when stories of Ms Q screaming at ppl during consultations came along. Scary yo tt woman. Her temper's always on the swing. Thank god she didn't scream at me before. But i once harboured intentions to seduce her during quiz time though. Oopsie!

ADFS - I rmb Mad Mah displaying her forgetfulness during lec when she couldn't rmb this and tt. Labs were kinda fun when i actualli made frens with some Food Sci ppl like Geraldine, Germaine, Zahirah, Ming Hui and others more. Seems like a consolation prize for me to be put into a different class than the rest.

FPQAP - A continuation of FPQA where we remained somewhat lost while trying to bake the most edible and presentable apple chips every fri morning. Then u have all the shelf life study crap and stuff.

CSAS 3 - My tutor was a kind lady whom we tried not to bully. I forgot her name lah damn.

YEAR 3

Sem 1

FSAF - An attempt to do SIP and meet up for Fsaf meetings (which we were not supposed to but who cares) at the same time. Missed those days when we went over to Da ge's and SG's place to have our Fsaf meetings. We played more than we did work though. Lalala.

SIP - My wish came true and i got attached to HPB for 3 months. Shall not elaborate more here cos i believe u guys had enough of it. Still, it was a memorable one for me. But i'll never wna go back there to work cos there's realli too much memories and im afraid i wun be able to take it. I tend to emo too much and i oso have a weak heart u see.

Sem 2

MP - I see it as a beautiful lie when they tell u that if u start early, u'll end early too. Dun get cheated juniors! HA. We started chaotically with little sleep every night. And then we ended our MP report chaotically too, but this time without any sleep the day before. Weird conversations popped out at around 4 to 5am when the 3 of us became realli delirious and started talking crap stuff. I rmb having my daily dose of bickering with Tofu thru her tagboard like realli early in the morning to keep ourselves awake. These 5 months had been crazy. Going back to NUH every other day during our holidays. MSN at home to discuss our MP. Buying tons of snacks to eat. Typical mondays were spent doing work in the earlier part and wandering aimlessly around in sch ltr on.

ND - Lectures were the best i ever had cos she made it so interesting to learn. Labs were yummy cos Steph always cook nice dishes for us to makan. I loved her broccoli and first time try-out pasta. Woo~ Mr Jack shon is a lucky guy pls.

FSM - It's either u hide in the FPP to cook or get stationed at the cafe. Which i preferred the latter. My last lab was spent running to and fro the cafe and FPP to help transport stuff, getting a dishwashing lesson from Mr Lau and then washing the never ending pile of dishes.

CSAS 4 - Ms Sng reminded us of Smurfie. Her sudden bursts of laughter can be realli hilarious at times. But most importanly, she finally had a change of clothes during our last lesson. Did anybody even realized tt? HAHA!!

And school is not complete without visits to our lockers, where we often compete to see who was the fastest padlock opener. Canteen-hopping when we couldn't find enough seats for all of us. Waiting and chatting outside our tutorial room before tutorials start. Going to labs and putting on our stinky labcoats for our lab sessions. Going to FPP and cook like siao. Cursing and swearing when the com labs are occupied with idiotic juniors who used the coms to play games or watch YouTube. Pls tell me why the freaking 'Final Year students' com labs were not made accessible to us when we were chiong-ing our MP. The sch has realli no sense at times.

Okay, so now i'll move on to the ppl whom i'll miss:


PEEPS OF AA32

1. Tofu (Jenna)


First impression: At first i tot she and Jenny were twins. They looked so much alike pls and their names where quite similar too. I rmb she was one of the first few ppl i sat beside in the LT during our orientation.

Things i wna say to u: Seriously speaking, ur temper is realli good. But i guess when ppl see u angry, it'll be because i've made u angry. Ha. But no matter how bad it was we wun be angry with each other for more than a day. Tt's realli amazing eh? And i guess u realli understand me alot to an extent where i had to ask u to pls stop reading my mind and venturing into my thoughts. U even guessed it correctly tt i do wear a hairband at home. Scary lah u. And thanks for the extra pkt of V-day ai xin cookies, cos u noe i'll need it more than the rest. =))

2. Ms Hua Xin (Jenny)

First impression: Actualli it wasn't a very nice one. Rmb during the orientation we had to go to Bedok Reservoir for duno wad shit? She was standing beside tofu, with me right behind them. Suddenly i saw and pointed out tt there was a freaking big insect on Tofu's back. This ger screamed so damn loud like crazy and forgot to help smack tt insect off Tofu's back. I tot she was crazy. HA.

Things i wna say to u: Sorry i cun help fulfill that wish of urs and continue to be ur future classmate. U'll have to refill ur bottle and buy ur meals urself next time. I cun help u carry ur bags anymore. And there will be one less person for u to try and seduce. No more laughing at my silliness when i cun differentiate food items or do stupid things in public.

He's basically an all-rounded lah. Guitar, piano, pool, PSP, kayaking, bball and all kinds of sports. Oh ya, he can realli eat pls. But put down tt smiley shield of his, he can be just as EMO as me.

Things i wna say to u: Dun think too much at times, if not ur head is gonna grow damn big and burst alr lah.

Have fun in ur upcoming holiday. Whoot~

7. Da Ge - Ying Long

First impression: The 1st time i saw Da ge was at the gallery during the orientation. She was one of those first ppl whom i opened my golden mouth and spoke to. And u noe why i spotted her? Cos her hair was quite short and i actualli tot she was my 'brother'. Ha. And she looked like she belonged to the Design sch instead of AS. Hmmm..there was oso this period of time i kept calling u 'Xing Long'. Like sheng yi xing long de xing long.

Things i wna say to u: Da ge hou! HAHA. Must pursue ur dreams no matter how hard it gets okay? Cos i can see the passion in u. Yeah. I'll always support u! And im so gonna miss seeing u and SG bickering with each other like siao. Oh man.

13. Elaine

Things i wna say to u: Captain's Ball wun be as solid if u weren't our star ball catcher for the past 3 years. Thanks for being so steady and joining be it rain or shine.

14. Yong ren

First impression: The skinniest guy in class who scared the hell out of me at times.

Things i wna say to u: We saw how u flew during 2.4km. Wah seh. Must be the wind helping u eh? HAHA! And i didn't see the softer side of u until u said those emo stuff to Steph at the end of our MP poster presentation day.

15. Steph

First impression: The ah lian look-a-like in bball shorts who came into the LT and sat beside me during orientation. I was like omg her hair is realli damn nice lah. And believe it or not, i was so shy that i didn't dare to look her in the eyes when we held hands to sing some stupid song during the orientation.

Things i wna say to u: I rmb u always hugged ur baby right infront of me to make me jealous. HAHA!! Toot. Neway now i can no longer eat the food that u cook alr. Oh well. Will miss ur cooking sia.

To the rest of AFSN Level 3: It's been realli nice knowing all of u. And i guess there will be some whom i'll never get to see ever again. Good luck in ur future endeavors be it furthering ur studies/starting in ur new job/serving the army.

I guess i've had changed alot since year 1. Come to think of it, I suddenly rmb wad Tofu told me abt her first impression of me: She actualli said i looked like bad ppl. Haha!! Rmb me as the grumpy fellow who'll always throw tantrums and get angry easily? Perhaps i was trying so hard to fit in. Things changed for the better when i learnt tt i shldn't impose how i want things to be on the ppl around me. Understanding the ppl around me came into the picture when i tried to kept my temper down abit. Yeah, i noe my temper still sucked at times but am trying to change for the better lah.

Now it's time to move on. But hey, this is not the end, it's just the start of a new chapter in our lives.
