But that's not the case this time. I've left school for good (well, high school la at least) and I didn't have to worry about sending flowers or anything to anyone of any sort (now now, don't get the wrong idea here), but something way better was planned for today, and that is Shirtliff's maiden get-together! Muahaha, I'm pretty sure that we're the first team to have done it (it helped that all the members stayed in the same state) and yea, it was really fun.
No pics here, since I didn't take along my Powershot A10, just check out Ann Sue's blog for that. It was at Sunway Pyramid, and though all we did was eat, eat, talk, eat, talk, walk around and talk, I think we really enjoyed each other's company. I was thinking of either bowling or skating, but Jill was wise enough to have come in nice-looking dress. Nuts. Oh well, no biggie.
Although two people came down with sickness and couldn't make it, I really appreciated the lengths that all them (Shirtliff members) went to just so that they could make it for the reunion. Ann Sue braved 20+ LRT stations ALONE early in the morning, while Kelvin had to skip a class at noon. Kit Meng too came from the ends of the earth and Aunty (oops) Yoke Kheng took time off from her busy schedule just to be with us for that 3-4 hours. Thank you so much ya all!
And we missed you, Maggie and Jon! You guys better make it for the next one, heheh.
The interesting thing that me and Simon decided to do was to escort our Miss Taman Melawati back to her home place, seeing that it was still early when we left Pyramid. This is roughly our travel route. We left Pyramid at around 4.30+ on a Rapid KL bus to Kelana Jaya LRT Station. From there, it was:
We first went to followed Ann Sue all the way to Wangsa Maju
Then it was back to Sentral for us.
From Sentral, it was the usual KTM ride back to Subang KTM Station.
.......
All together, we actually sat through a total of 40 train stations! Could hardly believe it myself. Reached Subang at about 7.30. It was almost like going all the way to Thailand...but we had fun, and now we know how to get to Wangsa Maju from Pyramid, haha.
So back off, St. Valentine. Feb 14 2008 wasn't Valentine's Day, it was proudly Shirtliff Reunion Day : DThen it was back to Sentral for us.
From Sentral, it was the usual KTM ride back to Subang KTM Station.

Reunions come and go, but I do hope that we'd still be able to keep touch with one another later on throughout the year. There'll be work, exams, results and everything else to get in the way of doing that, but hopefully in midst of our busy lives we'd find the time to remember each other, both in meeting together and in prayer..
