It was finally a real gathering for the class of 1996 after almost ten years. Tho' we see each other once in a while, they were mostly for the not-so-good occasions. So I am very glad we had this BBQ today at Pasir Ris Park, although the turnout wasn't very good. Perhaps during the next one, maybe the 10th year get-together or something, there'll be more people going. Tho' few people, it was definitely memorable - BBQ under the rain with three umbrellas.
It was also first time I went to a BBQ where we had to "ration" the food, two crab sticks, two hot dogs, 3 chicken wings, etc for each person. I think its good, cuz there's no waste of food. Just 'nuff for everyone. In the end, we still had some bee hoon left for some good old fun - 终极密码。 I had like about 4 cups of bee hoon. ha ha. And it ended we a game of hearts.
We have come a long way since the secondary school days, the wonder years, the soccer days, the carefree times. I am very happy, everyone has graduated from uni, mostly engineers and engineers to be. This time we talked about jobs, perhaps next we'll talk about marriages or children? lol.
And talk about having job offers at the weirdest place. We were waiting for our transport at the bus stop when an Indian young man approached us. He said he had three shops in sim lim and overheard our conversations that we knew something about computers. He would like to hire us as technicians. lol.
I will post photos of the outing once they are available.(provided I look ok in those pictures =p). And maybe some convo pictures as well? =)
