my junior high school

I like this photo a lot, sad that we didn't have a digital cam that time so all i have is the hard copy photo. It was taken around 7 years ago, we were around 14 years old then, on my school yard, on the last day of my junior-high school years.

Our school's name sounds really great 'Secondary school for gifted students' hahaha.. Many of my friends here were like 'wow!!! for gifted students?' when i told them the name of the junior-high school that i came from, and time after time i need to tell them 'erm.. not that special lar. Every province has 1 such school'. Well, junior-high was the last year of my studies in VN, I didn't have a chance to experience the high school life (the time that everyone says is the best of all times), and sometimes i wonder how it would have been like if i had been there...

These two girls have made a difference in my life. And i know that, now and always, they'll be there for me. We were the trio in class that always scored full mark for almost every single one of the 13 subjects that we took (except for PE hahaha) bcos we somehow always found a way to discuss during tests. Even when the teachers made us do separate test papers like count 1, 2, 1, 2 and all the 1s would do test A and 2s would do test B, if we've got time, we'd do both tests and then exchanged answers. And we're 'darn' friendly and nice to our classmates cos we also told them the answer if they couldnt solve any questions. Those were the times. The one on the left is me ( last time always had 2 braids), the one in the middle is super zai at geometry and arithmetics, in fact she's good at everything lar (but she hates stats hahaha), the one on the right is the monitress of my class (her mum is the vice head of my province, always see her on TV) hey dear, you remember both of them rite? they even cooked for you and Edwin that time hahaha, Ngoc's sis is going to Melbourne for her master, i forget to tell you.

I miss my school and things that are associated with us. Because of the name of my school, and that all the 'gifted' schools are always small compared to others due to the small intakes, students from other schools sometimes thought that we stuck up... Well, totally wrong, cos we're such a friendly bunch of students. (must provide another fact that we're not 'nerds' though again the name may suggest this)

You cant see clearly from this pic, but roughly that is one of the buildings of my school. i like it, especially when my class was at the corner of the level, so whatever we wanted to do, we always had enough time to clear up everything before teachers came. And can you see that everyone is wearing a red scraf? well, socialist country, so wearing red scarf is compulsory for us. we'd get demerit points if we happened to forget, and this explains why there are shops out side the school that rent out red scarves to students, what a joke! One thing good about the red scarf, it makes little girls and boys look cuter, scarves always make children look adorable i think. I still have mine somewhere at home i guess.

Why am i blogging at this point of time when exam is so near, well, i'm waiting for Mingyong see if i need to do anything else for 213 hahaha, so in mean time i just feel like writing something, being the like-to-write-things- girl.
