Whoah...

So a certain Indian Singaporean has been bugging me to update this blog. So I guess I will. The same Singaporean asked what I've been doing with my time in Malaysia, and now it's pretty much the same old stuff I did before I left the first time. Which, I guess, was kind of the point. Only now almost everyone's gone again, and I'm left with the stark reality of studying for exams. That being said, I'm still looking forward to going back to England.

Seeing most of my old teachers (except Craig & Fletcher) was a genuinely interesting experience. It's strange how differently Munro (David?) and O'Day (Shane?) talk to us now. Maybe it was just me not knowing them well enough, but some of their stories and advice... It was a bit out of this world. O'Days suggestion? TRY EVERYTHING! Naturally, I'll be taking it with a grain of salt: His college days sounded fun but unfortunately for me I also have some fairly challenging academic requirements from my parents.

Anyways, one of the recent posts from ANYONE on this place is from Syamira. Who apparently keeps this crap alive still. Her post about 2009 reminded me how different life was just one year ago. MKIS seniors were all in the same routine of getting up and going to school, worrying about high school problems. Now we're all over the world, starting anew. Brigid seems half as studious, Carl knows some Japanese, Greg and Anand are toughing out army life, my sisters working her ass off in uni, and I'm living on my own doing what I want to do 24/7 (or maybe... 20/7). The only constant seems to be Elena, who is always studying.

I'm just glad no ones living in the past. I think we've all managed to move on. Even Danial, Tahnee, and Amirah, who have been sitting around having a six/seven month vacation, all of them are finally going to a new stage in life.

Thanks everyone for a life changing 2009!

P.S. Enjoy the next few years. Anand, I'ma count the months till you get out of NS.
