As I look at the seconary school kids these days, I began to wonder what I really had achieve back in those times. Well its half a year more to a decade of graduation, but I always felt that something was amiss.

For me, I'm always in the shadow of someone 'great'. Why is he so 'great'? Well, he's a cool dude, handsome, totally laidback and everyone wants a piece of him, teachers included. Amazing? Hell yea. He is that popular. I always thought that living in his shadow ala Robin as a sidekick to Batman, as a 'bestfriend' was good enough but now as I look back, I really wonder if that is indeed the truth.

How I wish that I had the personality I have now, open and very much the party soul of a group. Then I guess, I could lead a more fulfilling school life. Its a regret thts beginning to haunt me.

My tme in NS and especially the 3years in Luge really shaped me to be what I am today. Dilligence- earned those in NS and my somewhat 'warped' personality gained by the mixing and interacting with the sper crazy people while at work at Sentosa.

I wonder how my secondary school friends aredoing now. Were bestfriends once, then as time goes by, degraded to good friends, and as we drift apart further became just friends and finally to just acquaintances. We do bump into each other, like everyone does in tiny island Singapura, but really, I thought there would be so much to catch up on, but in reality theres nothing to talk about. That's just shows how much of a life I had in Sec Sch. I should really look out for them more often as theyare the only memories I have left of my Siglap days and seriously it'll be a waste to lose these memories.

Cheers and good luck and all th best to all of my classmates in whatever you are doing coz I kno you guys are awesome.
World Peace!!
