For The First Time Around...

It seems that the whole 'appreciation' thing is quite popular and favourable now. I don't know why though. But I'm not going to do that.. Because it makes me sound like I'm saying goodbye, which is not good. Besides, you all know how I feel about you! And if I hate your guts or anything, it won't be fair that I diss only you and not the others. This one is different. This is how I get to meet all the great people I've met through the years. It's odd at one point because sometimes I see you walking down the street or talking to your friend and it never comes to mind that we might end up being friends after all. So, let me begin:

Miz: We go way back, don't we? I think everyone is bored now of how we met. It was Darjah 1 right? We didn't become friends straight away or anything. She was friend of this other friend of mine. And how I hate to say this but she was the popular one last time. I had no idea why. Maybe because she likes to run around chasing Haikal and Aiman (which is Fawwaz's brother by the way!!). Anyway, I piss her off somehow and she made all the other girls hate me. I hate her guts back then. Then, in Darjah 5, we were quite - how do I say this - not really 'in' with the seniors and stuff so we ended up together. I don't know why but I forgot all my grudges back then. We meet up later in Form 2 and then we're together. If you look at me and Miz, we're very different and very alike in a weird way. Even though this year, we tend to drift apart as she found other friends while I stick to the same, we're still together. I don't know how we do it! It's like we have an invisible bond thingy. When you're connected to someone, everything else just doesn't matter anymore.

Farisa: Hah! I first met her in - whaddya know! - in Darjah 1, too. I met her on the first day plak tu! I was being all shy and stuff and my mom had to actually drag me to her and introduce me to her (stupid stupid) !! And after the whole every-girl-hates-me event, we went our own ways. She became a prefect and I became... something else. But like me, Miz hated her guts, too. So, I kinda sort of stick around with her but it didn't really last. Because once Miza showed attention to her, she dump me off like a sack full of rotten eggs! Well, you get what I mean. But in Darjah 6, people tend to space away from her - don't ask. But I know her too long to hate her so I ended up with her again. Then, we went our own ways - again! I don't know, maybe the invisible bond thing. Even though we don't meet or talk for ages but when we meet, it's like BAM! We'll be kidding around and stuff. But we went to recess together from Form 1 till Form 2 so... I guess that's why we always stick together.

Gg: Gg! She is different from the minute I saw her! I swear! It was from the start of Form 1 when I first saw her in the canteen. In the early 2002, I used to wait in the canteen before the school starts. Thats where I first saw here. Standing near the canteen's wall and always with Diana and always smiling for god-knows-what. I know who Diana is but I don't know her. And her hair! It's all curly and stuff - very un-Melayu, if you know what I mean. So I always made a mental note to self to remember her name and I always forgot! Her name isn't actually the easy to remember ones or anything. Nadzirah, for god sakes. So, in the canteen, there is always this one smiling face that always makes me go 'Who is she?!' . Then, she said 'Hi' to me once in the surau but I was feeling crappy at that time so I just mumbled something and walked away. I don't think she was saying 'Hi' to see me say hi, too. I think she was just saying Hi just to see if I was the sad depressed crap she think I was. And yes, I was the sad depressed crap. Hahahh! Then, in Form 2 where we really get to know each other and from then on, we are as mad as mad hoping bunnies! I remembered I sat next to her in KH once before and she didn't look at me at all! That was b4 we were friends. Now we can't get enough of each other!

Diana: Easily said, she was beautiful. She was really pretty, which is not fair because she is smart too! Anyway, she was my 'ketua darjah' in Darjah 5. We weren't friends back then. Because she was my senior and as I said earlier, I don't really befriend seniors. Don't ask. She said she doesn't friend with me because I'm only chummy with the PTS kids. Right. I secretly thinks that she used to hate my guts back then. Or think that I'm a freak of somekind. Or both. But then, she became Farisa's friend and hung out with us in Taman Gemilang. Suddenly, she starts talking to me! So, that's how we become friends. Hahahahah!! Very short in this case.

Tasnim: I knew her through Gg. She was so scary! I was so scared of her to do anything. Because the power of her 'jeling'! And she always do that - always! Its like she look at me from the corner of her eyes and then her eyes trail up and down. I thought she hated me so I kinda avoided her. Sorry Tasnim!! But then she said that I gave her this weird look which freaked her out which in turn, freak me out with her jelingness. Hahaahah! And I'm also scared of her because she has weird dreams. Very very weird dreams. But she was friendly so eventually we become friends lah! Then I realised she's not scary after all! I used to think she is sort of perfect in away. I mean she's smart, pretty and very rajin. And she plays the piano at the age of 4!! Four!! That's very Wow!! So I really look up to her, in a way. And to tell you the truth, she is kind of crazy in her own ways. You - will - be -surprised.

Ainul: Heck, this girl is popular. I don't know how. Spreading your athletic skills, huh? She was the athlete star (I kid you not!) even in Primary School lagi. Everybody knows Ainul - everybody. They know her because she is so great in sports and very the pandai. But to tell you the truth, at first, I'm scared of her. I saw her play a Bola Baling game once and she was a firecracker! Once, she was trying to get the ball from this girl but accidently tripped and fell, cracking her skull in the process. It was scary! She was lying on the floor holding her head and stuff and everyone was around her - worried like hell and you know what she did? She got up and played again! Whoa!! And there was the part when she screamed at one of the players because of something. And when I mean she screamed - I mean, screaming ok! I was really scared of her. Then, somewhere in the past, I was in the surau, chatting about music with Sheena when suddenly Ainul starts talking to me! Usually, it would take minutes before I shut down but we were talking about music here. Music!! Before we knew it, we were talking about Oasis and Coldplay and how Green Day is pretty much dead (I said thatlah). And the agama class? I don't know! Somehow, its kinda easy to talk to Ainul. Because she is so cool!! Hahahah! So, nowadays, we will always talk about the bands we like because usually I like it too. Shoe-gazers rocks!

Shameen: This girl kan, I don't know where she comes from. Suddenly, she pops in my memory! Like POOF! Entah from nowhere, suddenly she hung around in Taman Gemilang. I don't know who ajak-ed or anything but she was there. I wasn't close to her at that time. Like, we talk but we don't really click. And then, she went to the Genting rombongan thing. At that point, we clicked! She loves to shop and I basically love to walk around so... we clicked! Hahahah! I was being the crazy nutter and she was fun and funny so I like to hang around with her. That thing was just three days and I like her already. Then in Form 3, she was close with Miz. So that's how it started!! Viola! And yes, Pierre is cute.

-- I know some of you guys would be surprised of how much I actually remember. But yeah, sometimes, memory just keep replaying things. This are my awesome wonderful-some TaBlemates!! Probably gonna do about some other people but this is it for now. Outtie!!
