Dear Shoni..

Secret of the day....

Playing the “rewind” button and back to year 1988. She spend her pre-school days @ MGS (Methodist Girls School a.k.a Monkey Girls School) under Mrs Loong Yi’s class.
She befriends Angie, Michele, MinLi and Hansini there. I attend another class, under Ms. Goh. (My aunt.)

The young and innocent Shoni

From Year 1989 till 1994, we attend the same school, MGS Primary School. From Standard 1 till Standard 3, she was in the first class (Melur) where I was placed in the last class (Orkid). Btw, last class doesn’t mean I’m the least bright student. At that time, our school doesn’t segregate the student based on their academic result until we were in Standard 4. (I have no idea why they wanna choose to segregate starting from Std 4).

In 1992, I was transfer to 4 Melur, separated from my friends in 4 Orkid. From there, I got to know “The Gang”. She is one of the members in The Gang. The Gang consists of Angie, MinLi, Michele and Shoni. The Gang = smart and arrogant student. (Okay gals, don’t kill me… ). Although we were in the same class, we seldom or most of the time, never talk to each other.

Primary school kid...

From 1995 to 1997, I was transfer to MSG Secondary School. The Gang also attend the same school and we were in the same class. During Form 1, due to lack of classroom, our Science Lab is our classroom. So, whenever other classes have Lab session, we have to shift all our belongings to their class. Basically, we are similar to those nomadic people. And that is when our friendship officially starts. We always sat together during our nomadic life. And we got stuck with each other since then.

We did our upper secondary at SMK Mahmud, Raub. She sat beside me during both Form 4 and Form 5. Whenever her family went outstation and she was left alone at home, I would persuade my mom to allow me to stay with her at her house. One of the ridiculous reason I gave my mom is she afraid the flasher will come and show his **** when she alone. LOL. As if I can do anything is the flasher really came back. Luckily he didn’t. We will then gossip about anyone till we finally fall asleep.

After Form 5, everyone went on his or her separate ways. As for me, I got stuck with her again as we attend the same college. She’s my roommate for a year. She stays with her family members when they all moved to KL after her dad sells out his orchard. After A Level, while waiting for the results, I stay back in KL and stay with her family. We work in the same company for a few months before I went back to Raub to prepare myself to the next level. We got separated when she further her study in UTAR, KL while I went to study at MMU, Malacca.

Seems like it's not so possible to be away from her too long as we crosspath again and she becomes my current roommate. I found a job at PJ after I grad and she got a new job at PJ. Even after I change my job, I still stays with her. I think, she is the only friend that I spend most of my time with until today. A friend, accquiantances and a soulmate...

Oh yes… I know lots of her secret, which I don’t think appropriate for me to write it out here…. LOL… If you’re interested to know…. Text me…. ;)

Lat but not least…

HAPPY 27th BIRTHDAY!!!!
