I had an awesome time with Shikin, Haiqal, Sean, Shu Xian, Azfar and Fizah after work today. After weeks of organising this MI gathering, out of 10 people invited, only these 6 came.

These people are the friends I made during the 3 months period after secondary school ended and before JC/Poly started. We only knew each other for 3 months but we totally enjoyed our time in MI and I guess we've gotten close. But it's only after 3 years that we decided to have this gathering.

I went to Marina Square straight after work, succeeding in not getting lost. I think I waited close to an hour for the rest to arrive. Slowly one by one came. All of us haven't seen or talk to each other for years, almost 3 years. So anyway, at first, with only Azfar, Haiqal, Shikin and Sean, it was weird as hell. We were too quiet, shy maybe. We asked each other what each of us were doing with our lives now. It was awkward. It wasn't until much much later, some time before we headed to Secret Recipe to break fast, during our arcade session, that the ice finally broke, big time.



During dinner we reminisced our times during our MI days. How we skipped lectures, how we played pool after school, how we didn't do our homework, our teachers, the pranks we played, how we played cards at the back of the lecture hall, the other friends in our class. Had a great laugh.



After that we went to Changing Appetites and ate three different kinds of ice cream and desserts. It was yummy! The guys played a prank on Fizah, as usual. You know the Tabasco sauce, they bluffed her by saying it's actually a drink sweetener. Hahaha. Fizah doesn't know what the sauce is actually. So she poured some drops of the sauce into her drink and drank it. Her reaction thereafter was hilarious. I took a video of it but am not gonna post it here. Sean laughed till he cried while Azfar laughed till he almost rolled of his chair to the floor. It was so much fun.



After that, Sean sent Shikin, Haiqal, Shu Xian and I home in his car. Again we reminisced about the times we went out before. So much fun. Anyway, he sent us straight to our blocks. It was so nice of him. He even opened the door for me and held my hand while I got out. SUCH a gentleman. I want this kind of guy. He's so cool.



At the end of the day, I'm very relieved and utterly happy that the outing was a success. Ice got broken and we had fun and laughter. Everyone enjoyed themselves. I'm relieved because I was the main organiser of this gathering. So I was really stressing during the weeks I was planning this and contacting them like crazy. I was so worried no one would enjoy themselves. But, hey, it ended perfectly. I can't wait for the next outing with them!
