Reunion
I met up with some of my old high school mates tonight at Yuen Steamboat in Sunway, and it was a rather nerve wrecking ordeal for many reasons; reasons that i can’t even explain. Well, perhaps i can explain them, but choose not to. (I’m a complicated individual, spare me)
Other than that though, the night was a rather…. borderline enjoyable night i’d say. Borderline because there were so many people, and they each had their own clicks, i didn’t even have time to talk to some of them. In all honesty though, there were some that i was never really that close to in high school, yet i managed to have a decent conversation with them. What everyone talked about..? Well, i speak for the table i sat in, but i can almost speculate that every other table had this topic as the majority of their conversation, which was "what are you doing now? studying or working?" or "OHh what line/field are you in?" Don’t get me wrong, these questions are fine. In fact, after so many years, they sort of become "pick-up" lines to start conversations. The problem then, lies in the fact that these conversations do not go beyond that for some of us. It’s like, when there’s nothing more to ask about what each individual is currently pursuing in their lives, the conversation goes stale… for some of us, not all. In spite of all this though, as i had said earlier, a decent conversation was still manageable. So there you have it; my reason as to why i deem the night a borderline enjoyable night. On the brighter side though, it was just fun to see old faces and do some catching up, to see the changes in people’s behaviour, attitude, and also how they’ve changed physically. It was also fun guessing the names of those i had forgotten and i wasn’t alone ok! There were others who couldn’t remember names as well. I kept asking a closer friend of mine the names of people that walked in if i couldn’t remember. I feel bad… I even got caught red handed as this guy approached me, shook my hand and said "Hi Gavin, how are you?" And i was just blur. I remember his face but i couldn’t remember his name. The most sheepish look you will ever see on Gavin’s face was revealed at that point in time. In the end, he had to tell me his name, and then my brain was like "oh yaHhH~!" thus sending signals and messages to my hand and body movements. You know when you’ve forgotten something, and you finally remember it, you’re like "oh yaHh!" with the hand movements and all? Yah, something like that. Lame I know, but nonetheless, i was helpless at that point in time. Eugene, i shall remember you along with your name, and will never forget it again! *drama*
What else? The food! I hardly ate anything though as i was busy talking. Yes my dear Huey Ling, that is me hardly eating. I know it seems like a lot, but it’s nothing compared to my usual. (Sorry, inside joke) Anyways, i hardly ate anything, and the food there wasn’t really anything to shout about. The company was what made the food taste better i guess. I spent most of the night with just a few friends though, as i’ve mentioned earlier, everybody had their own clicks. After steamboat, we went to this pub in the curve, called… Laundry? Geez, i don’t even know if i spelt it correctly? I’m so out-dated into this "clubbing/pubbing" lifestyle these days. *laughs* Not everyone could make it though. Almost half went their own ways after dinner, so there were only the remaining half. Over there, the same thing again, but with a different environment. We just talked, caught up on old times, I had literally 2 sips of beer
and then the night ended. Well, Rohan, Sud, Lee Sun and myself left at the same time as we were in one car, but according to Wee Nee, we set the mood for the night to end so everybody left after we did. So, Rohan, Sud, Lee Sun, we’re supposed to feel bad ok! Hahaha
Nah, they wanted to go back already anyway lar. So there, a reunion of a few old faces, with rejuvenated friendships……. i guess… =_=" Wee Nee says we should do this more often, and more often we shall do this then! But till the day we meet again, I wish all you guys that i spent time with tonight God’s blessings in any of your future undertakings! SMSJ BOLEH! duh-uh.. =_=" ………… Till the next reunion/gathering! =)
