“You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late…” - Ralph Waldo Emerson
It all started in April 2009 when I received a comment in my blog from a long lost friend who has created a link and triggered the chain of events. A classmate I have not heard of or met after I left form 5 and KB for good! After a few calls and emails we decided to get connected through the facebook and planned for a re-union. And on the planned date, we met our long lost friends, some we have not met for almost 40 years. 20 of us met at the Summit Hotel and the presence of YB Ubai from KB, Wan Nor from Penang and our musicians Lokman@Lord and Ishak Haji Muda were bonus surprises!

Great moments!
ReplyDeleteA correction (and it's not a minor one) 'Capt.Wan Aziz' should read as 'Capt TLDM (B) Wan Aziz'.
Tok Ngah,
ReplyDeleteOooops... thanks bro. Dah bersara ke kawan kita tu? Nampak muda jer. Isteri pun muda... he he...
Gelak la pulak. ish..ish...
Nong,
ReplyDeleteCapt. tu dapat aura dari org rumah baru.
Unlike us dia tak concern pasal cucu. Ada baby sendiri!
Nong,
ReplyDeletethanks again for picking me up ,or else sure iwont be there ...tapi tok berapa lepas laku sikit hari tu...lebih ceria masa di secret recipe kan?
salam nong. its nice to meet old friends and recalled those sweet memories.
ReplyDeleteTok Ngah,
ReplyDeleteBiar kan lah. Asal Capt. tu bahagia ke anak cucu...
Jangan anak dgn cucu sama baya sudah lah... he he..

Ann,
I am glad to be of help. It will be different without you around. Although tak lepas laku, dan mu tak seceria macam kat secret recepi hari tu (nervous ko?), you must have made someone very very happy...
Thank you to both of you for starting the ball rolling, and bringing back sweet memories. And a friendship we cherished till the day we die...
kakpah,
ReplyDeleteSalam. A lot we shared when we were young and innocent. There were sweet memories, and even sad ones too. So nostalgic!
Some parted as friends, some still need a closure for broken promises and the like...
Apabila tok2 and nek2 berjumpa citer pasal cucu ke kak nong?Semua tok2 n nek2 tu look profesional.Tok nek zaman cyber kan...he..he..
ReplyDeleteMG teringin juga nak jumpa ex schoolmate, tapi tak kesampaian lagi.
MG,
ReplyDeleteDah lupa diri. Mana nak cerita pasal cucu lagi. Kalau cerita anak cucu yang tak kesampaian ada kot.
(ok ke Nong, aku tolong jawab)
Madam,
ReplyDelete(He he he… Ada yang tolong jawab pulak!)
Actually we were more like kids than adults! There were no formal introductions at all. Somehow the old traits came out naturally and everyone was recalling about good old times together back in primary and secondary schools…
Kita tak lah sampai lupa diri, tapi kerana terlampau excited, some feelings yg terpendam dan tak dan nak dicurahkan masa muda2 dulu semua terbongkar… All secrets in the open… Like you said, we are professionals, so all cards on the table… no hal…

Tok Ngah,
There is little time left for regrets now… It’s fated that some have to part in sadness, ada yang frust menungging but life has to move on… There were a lot of what ifs, but if Allah change a second of our life history, we may not come to this and we may not see each other at all… Let’s thank Allah that we are still alive and for the opportunity to be close friends again…
If I am to relive my life all over again, I’ll ask for the same old path… no regrets!
