i went back to ij today after 2 years. i felt oddly nostalgic yet unfamiliar. the whole place looked the same but different you know? it was a strange feeling.
me, kris, gen and char wondered around the place lost but we still saw snippets of our past lives. the old steps where i use to have recess at was still there. the staircase where i walked up almost everyday for 3 years was still intact. i couldn't find my old classroom, i got disorientated. here are some pictures for those who couldn't make it.
doesn't this look the same girls?
they saved the best part of the school. the gate which was used during my mom's time.
where they left their babies at for the nuns to take care of.
my cca finally got its rewards after fighting for so long. now we have an air-conditioned drama room and a lit room. but i'm sour. i can't use it. oh well.
the rooftop netball court for the school's pride. we have to beat rgs every year to get extended recess or a day off from school.
the toilet.
the snapshot.
just so the rest will know:
mrs. how-yip is preggies and is due in may
mr. ng's baby girl, Vernice, is due in may
mrs. nicks - who ran 2.4km while 8months preggies - is once again doing that and is due in march.
miss jo-teo pulled my ears the min she saw me.
mrs. alex looks as radiant and motherly as ever.
ms yap looks pretty good.
mrs. jchu is very proud of the open concept bio lab which was a disturbing experience for us.
and
i love my ij
once you wear that blue uniform, its hard to throw it away
i still have mine tucked away, i can't bear to leave it behind.
