there's always a first time for everything
Stepping into the green gates blocked by a battalion of cranes and construction work evoked too many memories. This place was where I spent two formative years of my life, two of the best years I've ever had, in the comfort of an environment that honed beautiful friendships, and taught me much about myself.
Walking around the classrooms near the HP block was therapeutic, remembering how we used to have math tutorials and how we would leave Mdm Ng so flustered, how the fishtank was our favourite haunt for ice lemon tea, how the whole place smelled all so familiar. Yet it was different. It was like I was an outsider looking in, watching the mass dances, watching all the hwachies just come together to sing hwach songs, and yet the familiarity of it all seemed to exclude me.
There's no point going back anymore, because the best friends I made, are not tied to a place, but rather will remain with me in my heart wherever they may be. The place will always be warm and friendly but without the people who really matter, it'll never be the same. Thanks Hwa Chong, for two brilliant years, and for providing me with a place to have met this bunch of lovely people.
