We were expecting some guests from CLEO over for lunch today, so while my boss went to get a table at the restaurant, I proceeded to the lobby to await and receive our guests. While in the lobby, I heard a bit of a commotion upstairs and turned my head up to have a look. Turns out that the entire batch of Primary 6s from CHIJ (can't remember which one) was celebrating their graduation. In our ballroom. Whoa. I mean, when I was in Primary 6, we finished our last paper and then went home or went out to play. We didn't have no fancy schmancy graduation party at a hotel. It was quite a sight, having the hotel overtaken by noisy kids. Never seen it before. Was half amused, half overwhelmed.
So I received a call this afternoon from an ex-classmate. And when I say "ex", I mean 9 years-ex. So I haven't heard from her in 9 years and she calls me up. After the niceties, I asked her, "You're getting married?", to which a very surprised voice on the other end of the line replied, "Bingo! How did you guess??" I wanted to tell her that I've been receiving wedding invitations almost every other week so it really wasn't a surprise. But of course I said something else quite perfunctory. Anyway, shortly after the call, Lil calls me. Of course by then, I knew what it was going to be about. We were both rather stunned that we'd get invited to a wedding of someone we'd lost touch with for years. It's quite amazing indeed. I'm gonna go because I think it'd be great to see ex-classmates again (I think). And Lil had better go too because we're in on this together! LIL!
I am so looking forward to the weekend.
