2015 Party with the Stadian

the Supermama in pose..

When that invitation came to my inbox, straight away my finger clicking to the 'Yes' button. Supermama Jojo and Chulin will be the host. the venue was set at 9 Lake Senawang ? Mano toboh ey nih daro ? Whatever.. I trusted Mr. Waze to get me there... 

There are plenty of reasons why attending the friend school reunion is a good idea. These are the reasons why i wanted to be around... hehehe kiasu tak hingat..

apakah.. ayu sungguh gaya pose bebas ni

all of us

upon arrival... I went every table to say hi...
Some of the faces xkenal langsung

1. To Reconnect With Old Friends – to remember the best friend that I've talked to for hours. I haven't seen some of them in years and may even have lost touch altogether. Siti Nor Azlina and Faizul... my form 3 class monitor and assistant, I don't see them since 1989. All this while only the friends in whataps group that I frequently talk to.. not some of them plus there're faces that I've totally forgotten.
   
2. A changes – Poise and confidence come with age, I was the ugly duckling that became a swan in later life... statement tak hingat. I was the 'Si Ketot' dulu weii. Something very satisfying about showing up to flaunt those changes. ... hahahaaa.... ayat tak bleh blah.. tak la.. ayat tipu ! 
3. Aging – Seeing new fine lines and more gray hair isn’t easy to deal with for most people. Everyone is getting older, it can make the experience feel less isolating and help to terms with the fact that aging is an inevitable part of life... oh I'm old ! Lucky enough I have no gray hair.. but the time will come for me too !
4. To Network – Yes, I wanted to maintain the networking..
5. To Reminisce – Looking back and sharing a few laughs with the people that were by my side for all of those great times.
6. To Satisfy My Curiosity – I ever wondered where people ended up and what they have done with their lives.. and time like this will be the answer. It’s fun to see what became of them. Agak Kepochii.. this is life babeh !
7. Because Wall Posts in FB Aren’t a Real Conversations – Seeing pictures and FaceBook status updates from them isn’t the same as seeing them in the flesh and catching up. 

That afternoon went with lots of laughing, everybody seemed so happy. Jul and Imah weren't around due to some personal reasons same goes to some of the other closest friends.. Shiera, Dora, Qulyn, Zura, Faz, Ida, Ita etc... committed with the work and personal stuff. Perhaps there will be a 'Next time' which will be gathered more and more people...

Special thanks to Jojo and Chulin for spending their times for this gathering preparation. Kak Mah di lupa jangan as the meeting host during the organising. 

Perhaps the relationship still stay to Jannah.. wait for me at the meeting point. Remember.. I might be late but... I'll do my best to expedite the process. Inshallah...

An Orange Day !

We call it an Orange day..

It's becoming an annual event when there were 3 years in a row we having this gathering , almost on the same timing (January 2011). Thanks to Madam organisers Faz & Adora...

I was done my shopping for the orange clothes... luckily I easily got it while most of them complaining how difficult in getting it.

The venue was just at the Coffee bar of Flamingo Hotel, a very close distance to my house. After Zohur I went out with Ammar. Opss forgot to mention that Ammar was the appointed cameraman.

Let the pictures speak for the details.. stay tuned...

Stadian 2nd Reunion

Banner sponsored by Faz & hubby

It was again arranged by Faz & Adora. 

What's a great job.. 2 years in a row. 

It’s already a year since our last gathering. More new faces this time compared to the previous one.

It was a plan not to drag Feer & Romi to the gathering.. hahaha both of them also not interested to join. What a GOOD thing! Before that event the organizers were so worried about the attendees coz only me who have confirmed. Dora called me asking if I can do a reminder to those in my contact. As usual I followed-up with Shera, Ujie, Noor, Zura & Rosli. Only Shera & Zura were coming from my contact. Rosli stranded at Johor after married, lost

Reminder after reminder done by the organizers via Facebook, 

at last the turned-up not so bad. 

Shera called me during my driving to the venue, got something to do at IKEA and gonna be late.

I reached the venue at 2.25pm as per my planning, I don’t want to be so early. From the entrance, I saw some ladies and men in two group chit chatting, I was sure enough the topics mostly about the past memories. Ainnur was sitting alone a bit far from the others. She was the one who 1st approached me, then Hasba came, I've not seen him for 20 years since my age 15.

OMG, Lynn was there too, I just added her to my FB two days back. She looks so pretty but still in brutal look, hahaha not much change. What I knew from the other, she’s involving with outdoor activities such as car racing, go-kart, sea diving etc. Oh man.. sea diving, I crazy enough but never have any change. 

Dora then came to hug me, prettier, slim. 

Faz was busy entertaining the attendees and welcome me.

Zura with the kids and her hubby..

Shiera (lambat !), Faz & me (jobo)

Embrace after embrace.. 

Ujie & Ina...
Ujie penah jumpa dah after school but Ina... wahhh still same

Ainnur, Ida & Faz

Ujie & Cha

Last jumpa diorang masa Cha’s wedding at Seremban Dua. 

Both still like before shy and feminine.

Then slowly more faces turned-up. Kak Gal, Kak joe, Kak Ina lawa, Mahadhir, Kak Liza, Atuk, Ina, Ita, Cikgu Gazhali, dan lelain. The event went smoothly as per plan except for the ‘self-intro’ which we spontaneous created to focus into one conversation rather than separate grouping chitchatting. The MC, definitely the one and only artist among us Shera la. 

Watching spontaneous shots

Cha & Ujie suddenly wanted to go home because reluctant to be in front. 

I then convinced them that Shera will not call them out. 

Hahaha.. just like 20 years back… so cute.

Johny, Shera & Ida

The sweet thing was when Shera called both Johny and Ida, the two synonym names since my form 1, 1987 till 1989. The school ‘belangkas’, both were prefects and favorite students, never get caught, what’s so lucky. The question from Shera ‘people wanted to know, why you both not married ?’ hahaha… nothing from them actually but the audience yelling with their own answers.

My turn, but mostly just answering their questions

Some information for the rest; 

Kak Liza is a baker now and also trains people to bake. 

She brought chocolate moist and biscuits for us.

Zura and Ita run their own businesses, Ita brought some frozen food. All gone the minutes she announced it. Myself picked 3 packets of pulut panggang not for me definitely as I’m not a kueh eater. I had given it to my mom, IL and my sister. Fair & square. 

Zura with her supplies CCPP.

Iskandar & partner (I mean business partner la..)

Iskandar & partner are selling Jamuat Chow-Kit. Azmi also run his own same goes to some of us too. Just thinking when will I doing the same. I’ve no interest in business but maybe something on Internet will do. 

Faz has her own audit firm while Dora very proud announcing she is a fulltime housewife (I wish I’m too). Mahadhir as a director in building services industry and Qu Lyn as a Senior HR Manager in one of the IT firm.

Others were also working like myself.

Dora, Me & Kak JoeKak Liza, she used to be my 'Kakak Angkat'

Front : Cikgu Ghazali & Dora
Back : Lyn & Me, can't hide our gossiping faces. KANTOI beb!

A richest fren of mine, sweat wiping with RM50 note.

The event ended almost at 6.30pm but I staying for some more gossips and reached out nearly to 7pm. 

Some of the men went to 'ngeteh' after that. 

Smile faces everywhere... alhamdulillah it's again a successfully event. 

Hope this will not be the last one.

Chow !

Standing Stadian

It’s already 20 years when I left STAD after SRP (in 1989) and when I got back to the school for STPM (1992-93), some of the faces were gone, either they've further their studies on different field or already @work.

But then, Facebook has gathered the faces that I almost forgotten. Not just that, some faces I not really close, now became friend and so close.

More than 30 old faces that have joined the web, we just chit chatting online until finally came to the idea for get-together. We actually invited all but most of them can’t make it .

It’s scheduled to be held on 9 January 2009 but changed to 11 January 2009 at Dora’s clubhouse condo. I at first was really hard to go as my close friend Uji, Noor & Shiera were confirmed that they can’t make it. But on the other feeling, I really wanted to see them Faz, Ina, Ita, Dora, Shieda, Jojo, Zura and others. I don’t see them since I left the school in 1989.

I day before the D-day, I was informed by Faz for the theme, it was Red and white.
No time to shopping for it and just wore whatever that I have which could be closes to it. On the d-day Shiera called me to join, so I fetched her at 2pm and straight to the venue with some guidance by Faz.

But with Shiera, we never lost contact since left the school.

Dora greeted us the minutes we’re approaching the hall entrance. Faz was having her meals with her family while Zaida & Wati having their meals together without the families. While having our lunch, the Stadian members keep coming. Not as many as I expected, all ladies. No representative from men… empph they must be Queen Controlled by their wives.

We were talking about past about the time we were in the school,
about the boys,
about the secret admires,
dating time,
teachers,
subject
and everything.

Overall I can say it was Short, Sweet and Memorable. 

This moment really make my day, thanks and I love all of you.
