Might as well update my blog while waiting for the laundry to be done. Yes, I do laundry in the middle of the night so that they don't get left in the washing machine the whole day, wet and stuffy. Clothes that are wet and stuffy turn smelly, despite the fact they have just been washed. I have enough of such experiences in hall to testify the fact that such biological and chemical reactions take place in wet clothes.
I just came back from a wonderful meeting with a few of my JC classmates, a number of them which I had lost contact since I've graduated from JC. It's great to see them again, and all of us have already started work. One is a civil servant, another a network engineer, one is a embedded systems engineer, and yet another is a land broker. And I am a youth worker. All of us came from a computing background in JC, it's interesting how diverse people can be. Which leads me to think: what you study in university doesn't really matter; what matters most is to enjoy what you are working as.
Well, at least in this stage of our lives when we don't have much family responsibilities...
It's exciting to be able to meet my old classmates again, and inevitability we steered towards catching up on other of our classmates we've not seen in such a long time. Some are teaching, and others, well...I'm not too clear about the rest.
Even as we all move on to another stage of our lives, it's even more important to maintain ties with the people who have been part of your life in the past...to remember that we had such wonderful times. It somehow has the power to remove the tiredness of the present; to recharge for the future.
When will we meet again? I don't know, but there are plans to organize a barbecue gathering sometime later in the year. Whether it will come to pass is a big question mark. :)
