Surprise me

Surprises are good for the soul.

:)

********************************

4 years in Cedar wasnt a bed of roses. In fact, it's more of a nightmare.
Ironically, I love the school spirit. And I'm proud to be called a Cedarian. Always.
:))

Thanks to the school's fund raising carnival for the new building, there I was, 8 FREAKING years after graduation, walking down the memory lane with bestie.

The crowd was MASSIVE.
We tried to BLEND in by participating in their games.
But we had difficulty understanding their instructionsssss.
Generation gap you say?

So we ended up buying food and drinks at sky-high prices.

Anyway, the motivation behind the two games we played is to win the Cedar bear.
But it's NEAR to impossible.
In the end, when we finally decided to buy it, it's out of stock and we were told:
"You need to play these games to win it!"

SERIOUSLY?!!?

But like what they say: When there's a will, there's a way.
Hurhur. Check out Missy Formal and Missy Casual .

I bought the blue one 8 years ago (!!!) when I left Cedar, so I was pretty determine to get the yellow one today. Like what Fang said, it's like a memento for us. ;)

Here's some of us who went.
Surprisingly, we had a good time reminiscing the ol' times, despite me being MIA most of the time. Guilty as charged.

And because I'm feeling nostalgic tonight, let's do a "Benjamin Button".
I think most of us still look the same, 8 years ago.

This piece of art is amazing, I tell you.
I kinda remembered that each of us were asked to state our ambition at that time.
So one of the girls actually drew what we will be 20 years down the road.

Being a triple sci class, a bus of them wanted to go to Medical school (which I think a few really did in the end).
But 8 years later, instead of doctors, we have a bunch of accountants.

And my ambition then?

To marry Tiger Woods and be Mrs Woods.
At the age of 16, I think I had greattttt foresight.

And guess what? The two of us who wanted to be Taitai ended up as Engineers instead.
(And no one in the class wanted to be Engineers then!)
I guess we came to realise earning our own moolahs is more practical.
That, my friend, is the cruel fact of reality.
