well, luckily i didn't follow my "chickened" heart ad back-off from this reunion. It's all worth it!
This reunion is for those who was in the same batch as me during our lower secondary school. From their faces, i can tell that same as me, for us, those time are the best of our life. That's where life began. That's where life gets spicy and heated up. That's where we first find what love truly means. That's where we do our first "school level" crime. That's where it's all began.
Life at that time was pretty much fun and simple. School, morning assembly, evening prep class, night prep class, and lights off. All the basic routine. That's where i first learn how to mingle with people who come from a totally different background from myself, and to set myself at the level on where it should be.
Even though those that i met just now was not those who really close to me during the school time, but still, we know each other. Not many from my class turned up, only three of us to be exact. Most of it from some other classes. But we still can share the laugh and stories. We still can gossip like we were small kids. We missed the time when we were there in that school.
One of my schoolmate turned out to be a total gay. Haha. He was such a fun person to hang out with. One person is now embarking on online business. Then another one trying his luck on photography (he took most of the photos, including a personal portraiture of each of us, i hope those photos turned up ok ;P). Some work with big-good company, some others were just like me, who work on "normal" company. There's one couple who has been with each other since Form 2! So many things were shared in just a few hours of outing.
As for me, i was glad that i managed to force myself to join this outing. I want to be out of my looney-shell and meet up with more people. i want to be a normal person, one that i had never been able to be. I want to be free from all those "sickening" cocoon i've been hiding myself in.
I hope i will have much more courage next time. Anyhow, i would say that this is obviously a good start.
p/s : there's this one person just now who had actually caught my attention. hee-hee.

I'm glad that you enjoyed ur outing and change ur perception towards the way u see our own life.
I was like you once upon a time, didn't like to socialize, didn't like to talk (hm, ok maybe quite not me:P), didn't like to make new friends and etc, but someone has changed me, ya, my HIM. I have to admit that he has changed me a lot...
Actually when i see you, i see the few years back me. And i admit, to come out from this nutshell wasn't easy, as we are more passive type, love to isolate ourselves from the world due to our background perhaps. So i don't want you to repeat my foot steps, come out from that hidden world and socialize more and you will realized that actually the world is rather big. Many things happen around us, sad and happy moments surround us all the time just that we don't realized.
At least we know we are not alone;)
i don't have "him" leh? how? ;P
but i guess the "one" that helped me walk away from this cocoon is you. i'm thankful for this friendship we shared, even though at times, i still find it hard to accept the facts. I don't know. maybe it's just me.
i read somewhere, it was saying about one lion being caged for so many years, when one day the owner open his cage and want to freed him, he refused to walk away, just because he was scared that his life will be "worse" out there. as much as i don't want to accept, this lion story does hit home. i am that lion as well.
but i will not stop trying.
You don't have 'him' yet but you still have me now like you said:* but no worries gal, once you found ur 'him' i will undurkan diri;) but still stay as your sis forever:D
Yes, people scare to try something new especially when the current one is comfortable, but what is there to loose? if the next one isn't good, then keep on trying until you find a better one;)
