down memory lane

i have been thinking a lot about my primary school lately
i don't know why exactly
i miss those days
sekolah rendah perempuan pudu 2
is a small school indeed
it has only 2 classes for each standard
known as
rajin
and
usaha

28th August 2008
a new friend request
pop-up in my facebook account
along with a name
"ching mei chee"
wanna add you as a friend
hey....
"macam pernah ku dengar,tapi di mana ya...?"
and suddenly
it struck me
"ehh mei chee!
from SRK (P) Pudu II!"
i just could not stop smiling

in those days
everyone is taller than me
in fact i'm the shortest most cute person in my batch
even the juniors are taller than me
as if i am any different now
nope
i'm not complaining!
it's a gift from god
(bersyukur sudah-lah)
we are friends~
either you are a malay, chinese or indian
it doesn't matter....
there are no rules
who you can or cannot be friends with
even our parents get along with each other
we had a wonderful time back then
we shared everything
jokes, laughter, and even knowledge
once joe yin,
my chinese girlfriend
taught me
how to write and talk in mandarin
she will write it on the blackboard
and teach me patiently everyday
she did it for me
just because i'm her friend
and i thank you for that, joe yin

different from a "bestari" school
we do not have computers in our classroom
or a big huge screen tv
only a plain blackboard (the school guard made it for us)
once my friends and i have to use the "kerusi gerai"
the white coloured plastic chairs
and a fold able table (red in colour)
because the school didn't have enough money
to buy a proper set of chair and desk for us.
it was hard but we pulled through
together.....

and then came the best part of the year!
the holidays
but before that
we have to go through final exam first-lah
tak boleh lari punya
when you saw pupils reading a thick text book
pages of notes in their hands,
muttering silently to themselves
trying to remember every single fact
you know it's not normal
only one word to explain it : examination
is here people!

once the final exam is over
everyone will bring some stuff to play with
in one corner you can see people playing uno card
the other group are playing batu seremban
and then come the congkak pulak
the teachers can't say anything
because exam dah habis :)
best-nya!
the classroom is extremely noisy
the class teacher is no where to be seen
everybody is doing their thing
and then......
"ringgggggggggggggggggg"
the bell rang loudly
before you know it
you left primary school for good
