Together Again
.....
..... after 10 Years!
On 09
October 2005, over ninety of us from the ACS (Independent) Class of
1995 gathered at a cosy restaurant run by one of our very own peers
to celebrate our 10th Anniversary Reunion.
We were very honoured to have Ms
Mirunalini Thirunalan, Mrs Patricia Thong, Mr Simon Bongard, Dr
Philip Tieh and even teachers who have since left ACS (Independent)
like Mr Stephen Lim and Mrs Wee Ling Lee grace the occasion.
Organising the event was a big challenge, but thanks to the ACS OBA
SCRUM network, we managed to reach many schoolmates. Our Class of
1995 is currently 50% connected through the SCRUM network, but we
are now motivated to work towards increasing the percentage to 75%!
Dinner was a scrumptious buffet spread of continental and local
cuisine. No speeches or programmes were planned for the evening so
that everyone could do what was most important that day - to mingle
around to catch up with our teachers and long lost friends and
reminisce about old times.
For many of us, the past ten
years seemed to have passed by so quickly. But yet, so much had
happened during that period – completing junior college,
two-and-a-half years of National Service and graduating from
university; some are married and a few have already produced little
kiddies of their own! We had a
great time renewing friendships and recounting the things we did in
school. However, all things good had to end. As we bade our
farewells, we promised one another that we would meet again at the
next reunion in five years ! |
