pri sch gathering @ aloha
my pri sch math teacher, mdm lee, invited my pri sch class to her chalet @ aloha loyang on wed. had a good time catching up with each other, since most of us have all ORD-ed, so we had lots of stories to share with each other about our army life, and also what we had been/will be spending our time before the next uni yr commences.
wes,
chinks and i were among the first to reach the chalet, so we walked around the place abit, and was introduced to mdm lee's kids, who grew up alot since we last saw them. that was also a reminder of how much older we had grown too HAHA. aft that,
charles and
liangze arrived, and we chatted abit before we set out to pick up
nicholas from the pasir ris bus stop. so this is a photo of the lot of us that arrived early :D
after that, we went back to the chalet and played soccer a little before we went back to the chalet, where we started the fire for the BBQ. luckily we had alot of experienced scouts who were good at fire starting, so we managed to get a good fire going.
we then started cooking the food. (turned out there was alot of food!) we started with the nice mushroom wrapped with bacon. that was like the BEST BBQ food of that night. the mushroom was sooo juicy, and the BBQ bacon tasted so nice. heres a pic of the drool-a-licious mushroom wrapped in bacon!
we also BBQ-ed stuff like satay, otah (a few of which became charred really badly), chicken wings, and... PIZZA! haha first time BBQ-ing pizza, but it turned out to be quite a success. heres the first ever BBQ-ed pizza that i ever ate:
later on, we played some cards, then chatted some more with our teacher. there seemed to be endless topics of discussion haha. it was 11+ before we left the chalet.
unfortunately, by the time we reached the mrt station, we missed the last train! luckily, there was still bus service, and we managed to hop on a 58 at the pasir ris interchange.
the bus ride home was loong, but we started talking about some of the stupid things we did during primary school, and everyone had a good laugh. i couldnt remember like 75% of the things, including the things that i supposedly did haha... apparently i wrote this amusing magazine called "Shiok Times" or something like that, and a few other classmates came up with a rival magazine. lol i must have a really bad memory, cos i couldnt even remember the contents of those magazines!
the long bus ride home didnt seem long at all thanks to the company of all my friends, and i feel really grateful to
mdm lee, and our other pri sch teachers, for regularly organising such gatherings, which helps make the bonds we have with our pri sch classmates grow stronger. looking forward to the next gathering!
