Visiting AHS - my alma mater

I went back to AHS today, my alma mater and a place with fond memories of my youth. I was very lucky to have gone back with an ex-schoolmate BD who hasn't been back to the school for some time. I have yet to meet her before I fly as well, so it was very nice to go with her.

BD started a photo-taking frenzy and I suddenly felt nostalgic. I guess since the last time I visited a year or two ago, I have seen it slowly change and hence it didn't felt as if a lot was missing.












It was quite fun to be catching up with whichever teachers are left. Most of them have either left or retired, which is small wonder actually since I graduated like a decade ago. All of them were so keen to know what I am up to next once I told them I was heading for Japan in 2 weeks that I felt like a JET Programme spokesperson as I tried to explain what it is all about. They were very supportive though, which was very nice of them.

After that I went down to River Valley to apply for the International Driving Permit so I can drive in Japan and finally went for a haircut at my favourite salon. You can check the results of that experience at another posting!

15 days left! How exciting!

My new hairstyle - with frizz perm!

孙燕姿 . the moment

这一刻回头看见自己
这一路的风景百感交集的我
下一刻又将飞到哪里
渐渐疲惫的羽翼为你披上了勇气

放心离开我我会记得这一刻
那些还飞翔著不可思议的梦
雨后的天空会有绚烂的彩虹
像最初相信著我们终会找到自由

这一刻时间变成行李
越过生命悲喜陪伴著我前进
因为你让我看清自己
面对未知的恐惧脚步更加坚定

放心离开我我会记得这一刻
那些还飞翔著不可思议的梦
雨后的天空会有绚烂的彩虹
像最初相信著我会找到自由

哦……只是远行不是逃避
告别是为延续回忆永恒的华丽
你……要照顾自己不要忘记
那些灿烂过的痕迹
