"One sunny day, Chum and Num decided to go out for a nice date out. They reached the bus stop when Chum realised she forgot to bring her wallet along. Chum felt very silly that they had to miss the bus and decided to walk back home to retrieve her wallet. A few steps later, Chum decided that Num should wait for her while she hurriedly walked back. Num turned back and Chum carried on speed-walking.
Suddenly, there was a strong gust of wind and Chum got a shock when something fell right in front of her. It was a bamboo pole with 2 pieces of clothing. Chum was in quite a shock yet at the same time felt calm that she was unhurt. She immediately called Num and was relieved that she told Num to wait for her at the bus stop. Num could have been hurt by the falling bamboo pole! Chum collected her nerves and went about her task, meeting Num later at the bus stop. Num later revealed that he had felt thirsty and was glad that Chum had told him to wait for her, so he could get a drink at the nearby convenience store."
I was at the left most of the photo (on the pavement) when the accident happened. It landed literally centimeters away from me and I just thank God that it didn't strike me, and that N didnt follow me back or he might have been hurt too. Phew! Anyway N and I decided to lunch at the hawker near our old JC and visit our teachers. Unfortunately it was examination time and we couldn't contact our Geog teachers in the staff room but we got trippy with a nostalgic tour around our old school and managed to meet friends / teachers of ours. It was gossip-update galore for me - I'm utterly 'ace' at keeping up with old sec sch mates, primarily because I had a tough time in school, so it was quite a bombardment of stories (of shotgun / married friends, etc). I suddenly feel very normal and well-behaved like a little angel. mehhhhhhhh.
