Separation

well.. today is the last day of PJ0101.
so no more phoenix park,
no more tanglin campus,
no more small classroom.
no more cheap western food.
and no more classmates of PJ0101.

Expectedly, not everyone came for the last day.
There were only 3 teams present.
PJ0101 is not so united.
so there were not really any sadness.
The feelings were minimal compared to the separation of 0107.
Rp system is making us numb.
The constant class changing will make us more numb,
semester by semester,
year by year.
Soon no one will care.
Care about what?
It doesn't matter if the class is separating the next day.

It is indeed true that RP enables us to make a lot of friends.
But what's the use.
Lots of friends without really close confidants.
6 months or less than that is just too short.
too short for strangers to become good friends to becoming confidants.

Sometimes i think that CCA friends might even be closer than one sem classmates.
Because CCA, the people are there permanently.
Thus, it enables more interaction.

Recently, I just heard from my SP friend.
He says his class will ONLY SEPARATE by year 3.
I wonder why is RP’s system like this.
Why do they like to create and split classes,
create and split classes,
create and split classes?
Don’t they find it a hassle at splitting classes?

0107 is also fading further and further away..
the unity is no longer there..
it has already been a miracle that we were able to organise so many fun events together.
I really appreciate that..
Thanks for the wonderful memories.

Discussions have been made by some to hold some activities by 0107.
Camp or chalet?
But is it really possible?
I feel that there might not be any activities this holiday.

For 0101 to reach the unity of 0107 at that time is completely impossible.
In my opinion, this class has only half the unity or even lesser than 0107.
This is due to the class having many subgroups.
Chinese groups, malay girls group, and the outcast.

Perhaps the separation is also a blessing in disguise for me.
I no longer need to slog like hell.
This semester, I’m usually the one doing the ppt and the FMT.
Luckily, my grades have been better than last semester.
Perhaps, the facilitator can tell the hard work I put in.

Being in an all guys time is what I fear most.
I’ve been in such groups quite a number of times this semester.
This is usually very stressful and tough.
As I am always the one doing everything,
While they are gaming
Though I get help from some, occasionally.
Yet the grades are equal sometimes.
No offense. I do not mean to insult anyone with this.


After separation

Well, after the official separation time (dismissal time),
11 am to be exact.
I went out with some of my 0101 classmates.
Wei jian, jian wei, pat, deng shan da jie, and shi jian.
We bid the gaming freaks guys including james and the rest of the class farewell.

We went to PS.
Had pizza hut for lunch.
About $7 student set meal (excluding GST)
I had spaghetti.
My friends were amazed
or should I say disgusted at the amount of cheese powder I put in.
well, I like creamy food.
More cheese even better.

Next we went to catch a show.
It was underworld evolution
It was a M18 show though.
I was underage.

The first time we bought the tickets,
The old auntie did not allow me as she said my bday was not over.
So we think, think and think.

Then one of us went to buy 6 tickets at one go.
This time it was successful as a auntie only had to check 3 ICs.
Naturally, I did not appear at the counter.
I was away.

However, that was not the end yet.
There was still the person to check the tickets.
Luckily, shi chian (Malaysian) had sort of 2 Identification thingy
One was Ic, the other was like of the same purpose too, but not ic.

We pushed the 6 tickets to the ticket checker together with the 6 ICs
Really nervous.
Still, I made it through.
Haha.

After that, the ticket person demanded to check the ICs of some underage students.
The students were arguing with them.
We heard that and we hurried in.
Phew..

Overall, the show was quite good.
After all, it was a M18 show.

Underage kids, don’t try it out there..
If you do, don’t get caught.
Lol.
