Before I tell you what happened all week long, lets just warm up with a great song by Nickelback.

This Afternoon - Nickelback
Oh, looking like another Bob Marley day
Hitting from the bong like a diesel train
And now we're hanging out this afternoon
We got weeds in the backyard, four feet tall
Cheech and Chong probably would have smoked them all
So, I'm on the couch this afternoon
Beer bottles laying on the kitchen floor
If we take them out back, we can buy some more
So I doubt we're going out this afternoon, oh
Better hang on if you're tagging along
'Cause we'll be doing this till six in the morning
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on, doesn't matter when you gotta
Get up and go out, me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down, we'll do it all again
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Landlord says I should buy a tent
But he can kiss my ass 'cause I paid the rent
So I doubt, he'll kick me out this afternoon
Down on the corner in a seedy bar
Jukebox cranking out the CCR
Had a few to Suzie Q this afternoon, oh
Better hang on if you're tagging along
'Cause we'll be doing this till six in the morning
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on, doesn't matter when you gotta
Get up and go out, me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down, we'll do it all again
Get up, go out, me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down, we'll do it all again, yeah
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Wear a wristwatch and alarm clock to see what time it ends
From the moment I wake up, I just love being with my friends
We barely get by, but have the best times and hope it never ends
We drink all day until we fall down, so we can do it all again
It's not a human walk, it's the human race
If we were living on the edge, taking too much space
So I'll doubt I'll figure out just what to do
But to kicking around, hanging out this afternoon, oh
Better hang on if you're tagging along
'Cause we'll be doing this till six in the morning
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on, doesn't matter when you gotta
Get up and go out, me and all my friends
Drink up and fall down, we'll do it all again, yeah
Get up and go out, me and all my friends
Drink up and fall down, we'll do it all again
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
It's basically a song about gatherings and reunions, which perfectly describes what I've been doing all week long. For those who are scratching your heads, here's an update: it's the season for university enrollment. Have a clearer picture now??
So, here's the list of gatherings that I've participated in the last week:
26 June: U6B1's gathering at Sidewalk Ice Cream Lounge, along with Pn. Chee and Miss Tan.
28 June: Met up with Wai Nyin, who will be leaving for USM, at Ipoh Parade's Sushi King and spent over RM90 on sushi!!!
29 June: Went to watch Toy Story 3 in 3D at Jusco's TGV Cinema with Yun Foong, UKM's future Medicine graduate, and poor Kok Chow, who will be "flying" to UMS. It was definitely a privilege to get to watch the pioneering 3D show in Ipoh. Then, had a 4 hour lunch-slash-chat at Jusco's McD, where Ming Sheng and Jee Bin (UPM-Veterinary Science) joined in as well. 4 hours!!!!
30 June: "Stormed" Pn. Lau's resident along with the other Sixth Form Committee Members.
Seems like a pleasant week, right? Indeed it was!! However, I definitely had mixed feelings. Watching everyone I've spent almost 2 years with in school and after school leave, simply makes my heart sob. And I could tell that I'm not the only one having this reluctant feeling to leave.
To every relationship, there will be challenges and hardships, and friendship is nothing less. Nevertheless, distance in the eyes does always seem to be further than distance at heart. That's why I believe that this is an obstacle that all of us can endure. Just want everyone to know that,
You've Got A Friend In Me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
And you're miles and miles
From your nice warm bed
You just remember what your old pal said
Boy, you've got a friend in me
Yeah, you've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
If you've got troubles, I've got 'em too
There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you
We stick together and can see it through
Cause you've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
Some other folks might be
A little bit smarter than I am
Bigger and stronger too
Maybe
But none of them will ever love you
The way I do, it's me and you
Boy, and as the years go by
Our friendship will never die
You're gonna see it's our destiny
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
I LOVE YOU!!!!
