Had attended a wedding dinner of my Secondary School friend, SS last night at the Bukit Batok Civil Service Club. It turned out to be more like a class reunion for me than a wedding dinner. As SS had invited quite a number of friends who were from the same class during our secondary school days, thus the whole table were folks from the same class sitting together.

As we sat and relived the good old days, more of our classmates turn up. Though there were some of the friends we saw that we recognise but somehow couldn’t remember the name.  It was like at least 10 years since the few of us last seen each other. Though most of us hasn’t change much in terms of appearance, just that everyone seems to have put on weight. We start updating each other on what we are doing and start reliving the good old days. Seeing the whole table consisting of ex-beattyians, we were joking that we should have came in our uniform and put on our school badge as well. With that, our famous Non Vi Sed Arte school motto came out and we were all laughing at how we still remember the motto.

Its good to see everyone again after such a long time. Especially knowing that everyone is doing well in their respective career. To think quite a number of the folks were like being condemn by the teachers back then in school. But well, I guess as everyone grow and age, the mindset will change and now everyone is doing well and fine.

It sure was a good night of joy for SS and his wife, and a night for all of us to gather, catch up and relive the good old days of our secondary school lives.

A song/video that always come to my mind when I think of the friends from Secondary School.
