REUNION WITH CLASSMATES OF '76....

On the night of 16th August 2012, I was finally able to meet a classmate who was in the same class that was Form 1 (9) in KTSS in 1976, whom I haven't seen for more than 30 years. She managed to traced me and a few others through Facebook about a year ago and she has been keeping in touch since then.

My friend Dot, is married to a British man and has two grown up children. They reside in the UK but she usually comes home to visit her family every year.  She told us every time she came back she will try to locate us but to no avail. But this year she was very,very happy because she managed to track down a few of us. Actually there was another friend who wanted to join us but she couldn't make it  due to some unforeseen circumstances as she staying in another part of the country. Hopefully she can make it the next time round. Really missed her and wanting very much to see her.

There were about five of us at the reunion that night. Wow, we really had a fun time reminiscing about the good old school days. One of her friend's brought a few old class photos. Hahaha....we got to laugh at ourselves when we saw those old pics....with our bushy hair style and our innocent look. Geeee....one of them did not recognised herself in the photo. So you can imagined how different we were back than. Two hours seemed to fly by without us realising it as we have a lot of catching up to do.


 
 I was very happy to note that two of my former classmates are doing very well in their career. Quite sad too as one of them is a single mother, but her kids are doing very well in their studies. Dot has left for UK yesterday and I hope that she can bring back all the sweet memories that we had. She promised that the next time she's in town she will round us up again for another reunion and hopefully with a few more long lost classmates.
