We finally managed to organize a Primary School Gathering after 12 FRIGGING YEARS. OMG.
12 YEARS!!!
I've lost contact with almost everyone except Ron.
Long story short, it was Facebook and a class photo which brought us together again.
We manage to get together for a lunch on 2nd Jan. Well, let's just say it was a "minor success".
5th Jan, we went back to Xishan~
十二年之后重返母校的感觉。。。真的是很爽！ 仿佛有种时光倒流的感觉。
...
Geez... I haven't stepped into this area since I graduated from the school.
For 12 years I haven't been back in this place.
It's like back to the past all over again...
...
...
Sad thing is...
And there's only 2 areas of the school from my memory that's still "left intact" today.
The main gate & the zebra crossing... the long sheltered walkway to the assembly area.
And the stone path leading to the pond with the red bridge~! (I can't believe it's still here!)
Other than these places, the entire place had been given a facelift.
Buildings were extended, the hall totally "reversed", the bookstore shifted away, and all the fields are now gone.
All those areas behind the classroom where we use to catch spiders are gone.
All the chin-up bars and monkey bars and hopscotch areas are gone!!!
:(
I bet kids nowadays dont' even know what's Hopscotch. And it used to be one of our class favourite "canteen break" activity...
...
...
Unfortunately, we came back at a very inappropriate time. Most of the places are blocked off, and even the canteen is closed.
:(
Well
So Long~
"Stand up for Xishan~~~ Never must we let her down~~~"
