It was another try on visiting the school ground on 11 Feb 2011. It has been years since I decided to try going into the school again. I called everyone who was going to meet outside the school gate at 11am. When everyone was there, we all stepped in, and I think it was the same unfriendly security guard again, and he wanted to chase us out again. He would only let us enter if Russell is not wearing slippers and only after the school officially ended for the day. That means no matter what, we could only enter after 12.30pm.
We were all "Du Lan" again. Song Guan said that he could go in anytime he wants previously, provided it is not THAT Security Guard. Well, Pok Yen and I were unlucky to meet him again... But we still waited patiently for that 1 hour 30 mins... Finally, when it was time, we approached the gate again. Luckily, the EVIL security guard was gone (Because it was Friday Afternoon and he MUST go somewhere to do something). It was a kind lady guard who let us in even with Russell wearing the slippers.
Finally, so many years since I graduated. That was my first time stepping back to the school. Everything was changed. I could not feel any nostalgia. That's it. No memories of any past secondary school anymore. Same goes to my primary school. Everything just changed for any school that I have graduated from... like almost immediately. Because the upgrading project always happens the following year of my graduating year. The only school that has the minimal change is Tampines Junior College.
We went straight to the Haven as I thought I saw Mr Albert Neo walking to that direction, but I lost him. Instead, I found Mrs Chua teaching a class just beside the Haven. We all miss that voice.. Haha. But Mrs Chua was disappointed with us for not making appointment with her before hand as she needded to conduct SPA Assessment later on, so we had to explore the school ourselves.
We went to canteen to have a cheap and satisfied meal. Good to find almost all the stalls are still doing good. Except the "Auntie Vegetarian Stall" was gone, her business was not doing any good even since the time I have entered. But I like her food the most, even though there was a lot of complains of hygiene conditions of that stall. Now, it was gone. Hope that auntie is doing fine.
We all walked around the school. I was the only one among them who has NEVER stepped back to the new campus, so I insisted in walking every corner of the school. Sadly to see, there is nothing much we found nostalgic. We could only find some of our teachers, but luckily that Displicine Master was nowhere to be seen. Phew. Just thinking of that face will make me feel like puking.
After visiting the school now, I have less arge to go back anymore. Cos is just not the school I have known anymore... (And the evil security guard is damn right irritating, spoils mood everytime seeing him..)
