the glorious days of 4S91614

i get super duper excited today.. n am still a lazy bum. dis weekend is gonna b a frenetic 1! 2 of my gud frenz r get'g married (dubbed s d ”wed’d of d yr” by my twin, Meme) Our history of b'g gud frenz dated way back in the jurassic yrs hi-skool; felt like it ws js ystrday. (aftr all im still 19! …In my dreams!) k, it all began in 1995, Meme n I were in dis ‘boarding’ skool in KL. Not ur typical boarding skool. We board thr in d sense dat we stay thr 2 sleep, go 2 tuition classes n stuffs – its jz a hostel. In dat hostel students went 2 6diff skools. Assunta, BBGS, CBN, CRS, Sri Aman n SAB.

Whn I ws in my form1, my roommates ws Meme, Iena, Irma (yes, d Irma Hasmie) n me (n sum othr pple of course. Bt my story today is abt 4S91614..) N we hv anothr close frenz, Oem who stays in anothr room bt d 4 of them (Meme, Iena, Irma n Oem) were frm d same skool. I m Meme’s twin, so we were practically 2gether eventhough we r not joined in d hip like a siamese twin. So, d 5 of us were close knit fren. We went 2bowling classes together n Iena, Meme n me enrolled in a traditional dance class @d hostel. @times, we spent our weekends in Genting cz Iena’s parents works thr. We used 2get free rooms 2stay n spent our money 4all d rides thr n stuffs. Once we went n brought our bowling bowls w us. U knw d ride 2go up 2 Genting ws all winding road n we can hear our bowling balls hit in2 each othr in d trunks cz @dat time we don’t hv bowling bag. N we tested our bowling skills @d bowling alley thr in Genting. It ws awesome! We were not d senior’s fav for various reasons. Meme n me converse in English @times; ppl don’t like dat, so we were sumwht banned cz we were so ‘snob’ n speaks English. In d morning during sum PE session @d hostel, d seniors will call their most wanted list juniors (those they hated most) n Meme n my name ws alwiz on d list. N also sum othr names (Einayanti, Rozie, Rezan). They’ll shout our names @ d field n ‘invites’ us 2play ‘chapping’. It’s a game whr they use a tennis ball n throw @ppl, n whn sum1 got ‘chapped’ they r considered lost. So, these seniors will chapped each n every1 of us till d bell rings. If we were 2return n chap them, we will b called dat very night 2get sum ‘lecturing’.

Whn we were in form 2, we were told 2go 2an English Language camp. Not all of us went. Bt whn we were thr, we came close with anothr grp of gals who were thr all along @d hostel bt ws sum1 separated frm us (infact we were ‘enemies’ 4reasons I cldnt rmbr). N we became gud frens aftr d camp n then frm d 5 of us, we became 14 a.k.a d 4S91614. Frm various skools we were :

Assunta – Salina, me

BBGS – Meme, Iena, Oem, Irma, Oja

CBN – Rezan, Rozie, Einayanti

CRS – Nadia, Fara, Jackpoot

Sri Aman – Fuzzy

Pic 2 : Us, recently. (Iena, Jackpoot n Oem - yet again - missing frm dis pic)

We were d devils! Seriously! We gave d principal of d hostel a very hard time since we were 2gether! Ponteng? Lompat pagar? U name it, we did it. We were notorious! It’s a wonder if our names were not heard b called 2 d principal’s ofc. Nx 2our hostel ws a boys’ hostel. Yes, they knw us. (aftr all, everytime thr’s an announcement made @our hostel, d whole area can hear it, of course they heard!). So, d 14 of us remain gud frenz till form 3 n sum left aftr PMR 2diff skools, bt we kept in contact till today. And of course, along d way, i met my best fren Nasha whn i ws in my Form 4. (myb i'll post a story of how Nasha n i became best frenz..)

Last time we had a gath was a month b4 my wedding. It ws a blast! Its alwiz like dat everytime we had our gath.. we will repeat d same stories n reminisce abt our hi-skool yrs bt we never get bored ovr it. Cz it made us who we r now. Ppl downgraded us so much whn we were in hi-skool cz we were naughty. But its marvellous 2c dat we r do’g great despite all d naughtiness in hi-skool.

So this weekend is gonna b Einayanti n Rezan’s wed’g. As @jz nw, almost all confirmed attendance n Im super duper excited 2meet thm again! Great! Great! Great! I’ll post d pix whn I hv them ready.
