memory is a place | place is a memory

Hey Li, Wei Ling, I thought of you guys this afternoon. It's strange. I thought of our 4B wishing tree which is probably chopped off by now. I think that is the reason why I refuse to go back to AHS to visit because I don't want to see the new-old block. The other day, my sis and I were chatting and we were talking about all the things we will miss if we leave Singapore. I will miss the people and the food, but we were quite surpirsed that both of us felt that we will miss the places.

[It is really strange. Everytime I need to study and really concentrate my brain will wander, and I will think of all the trivial stuff. ] I once watched a documentary about ghosts and spirits (yar I know, don't roll your eyes). But I feel that I agree with one thing the spiritual experts say. They mentioned that sometimes very old places retain the memories, especially if the events involves extreme emotions. Which is why, they explain that places where murder has taken place becomes haunted. Ok, I know it is far-fetched. But I do feel that old places have that memory-hauntedness, even if you don't see the ghosts of the past, you'll still feel a sense of the history of the place. I just thought of all the places in AHS.

The flagpole, the parade square, how the concrete floor is grey and has weird patterns and is full of ants. How late-comers always put their bags at the side. I once lied down on the concrete and it's damn hot.

The choir room and the horrible stink of socks during choir practise and how they always sprayed lemon air fresheners (terrible mix). and how the choir wall is so ugly. Remember they are white paper mache stripes laid out in random pattern.(ugly holes) And the composers pictures on the wall? The wooden floor. Orange blinds. And the two doors, with the stupid shoe rack outside?

Remember, there used to be a cage area near the music room? It looks liek a cell with piano in it. And I remember doing my sectional practise in that horrid cell.

And where you guys use to march? that small concrete patch outside the book shop. And remember how we use to terrorize the book shop uncle? So Funny man! (I still have the photo of us robbing him)

Hey Wei Ling, when you come back in December, we should go back to AH and take a look. Remember we buried a box of stuff on your birthday one year? Haha near the stadium? We should go back and see if it's still there.

There

    OMG this just brings tears to my eyes but I can't help laughing at the same time. Yes we had lots of great memories in AHS and now that the buildings have all changed, I think the feeling won't be the same anymore. I loved the old block even though it was really run-down and dilapitated. Now that it's gone, it's no longer AHS to me. Yup, ever since I got in touch with you n Li, I have been thinking and dreaming much more about our sec sch lives and friends.
