CHS Alumni

In case any of you do not know what an Alumni is, it is the former male and female students of a school, college or university.

Yes, I believe that all of us here qualify to join as we've completed our studies in Catholic High School. The first question comes to mind is why should I join?

The reason is to continue our high school experience together with our beloved high schoolmates in the future. They even suggested that there will be a special annual dinner organised separately for the younger alumni members, IF there is enough members.

So what's holding you back? Please proceed to http://proto.chsaa-pj.org/ and register now!

The membership fee is RM20 for a lifetime and it will be collected separately in the future. (Not during the online registration)


More updates to follow.

Do you remember?

The last day of SPM, the last day we were in our school uniforms.

Do you remember the euphoria? Do you remember the moment you walked out of school in your school uniforms for the last time? What was on your mind when you handed in your last paper? Were you eager to leave the school? Or did you look back and saviour the last few moments?

After SPM celebration

I woke up this morning realising that my high school life was over and will never come back again. I don't know why the feeling just came to me this morning, maybe I was in a state of denial all this while.



This is the only informal picture of the almost full class. I guess this is and was the the last photo of us together.

Whooops? Don't worry! I would be THREE (Supposed to be 'there') for you.

One final photo for today, I don't really have much pictures. I was really lazy and just wasn't in the mood to take more pictures when I was in class with you guys. Maybe it is true that we do not know how to appreciate things until it is really gone.


Is high school life really over? It just feels like school will start again after the holidays.
However, no matter how real it feels, it will never come back again.


CHEERS MY FELLOW 4S4/5S4 CLASSMATES!!!

干杯！！！

我对本班的感想

我原本来自4SF2，因为那班太乱了所以换班。本来去4S6的，然后又不知如何来了这里。不过，我并没有后悔做这决定。

以前刚进来这班时，我觉得有点遗憾，因为本来进4S6的，第二天突然又来了4S4，我也吓了一跳！我申请换班时请求上天保佑我不要来这班，其他班都无所谓。慢慢地，我发现大家都并没我所想象中的那样。久而久之，我认为本班比其他班都好，可能是因为我与大家相处得比较熟了吧！

这班虽然有时是吵了一点，但肯定比鸦雀无声好得多，因为这样才显示大家之间的感情良好。我们班也很multi-cultural，意思就是什么都会。例如，我很会下棋、Kong Weng 他们很会唱歌、Chee Keong 他们很会读书、Yin Bin 他们很会运动、Peter 他们很会辩论 (debate)，还有很多呢！

这是我理想的一班，因为十全十美。我也感谢大家对我的教导，因为大家都改变了我的缺点。例如，以前的我是很害羞的，但现在的我还是吗？我也很珍惜这两年内大家一起走过的日子，任何事情都难不倒我们！我也在这班找到我自己。在这里，我要向大家有诚意地道歉与道谢，道歉是因为我知道自己做了很多错事，道谢则是因为大家对我的教诲。

伤心事我不想提那么多，我最后悔的就是讨厌女生。也是本班让我发现女生们并没我所想象中的那样难相处。她们也没那么脾气暴躁、小气，反而我觉得这些是一些男生的缺点。放心吧！就当没发生过好了，我也不去想太多伤心事。何必活在痛苦的记忆里？不去想，就是活下去的方法！

我希望这部落格是一个和平世界，而并不是战场，尤其是chat box。一点小事就吵架不会显得很无聊吗？在战争里，有一方认输并退出，但另一方却还想继续的话，那战争还是一样不会停止，反而会显示出赢家的残酷。没办法啦！我们人就是有这种缺点，若见到别人生气的话就会觉得爽快，认为自己赢了,再加上嘴硬(其实心很软)，就因为这样往往会发生很多不愉快的事情。

两年的时间就在眨眼间过了。最后，我希望大家都有光明的前途，做是永远顺顺利利、身体健康。失败是成功之母，希望大家勇敢面对挫折，不要轻易放弃，成功的路就在眼前。爱迪生说过：“我们最大的弱点是轻易放弃。成功最确切的方法，永远是‘在试多一次’。”

Our Last Voyage

As we filed out of the bus, I could not help but feel a torrent of nostalgia flood my soul. As memories of my high school years flashed before my eyes, the longing to spend more time with my friends grew more and more. As if the little stone within me grew to a boulder within the blink of an eye. Little did I know that I would not be able to.

As we part and walk our separate ways, some of us may meet, some of us may not see each other for the rest of our normal lives. We look down our separate paths and notice that we are not holding each other's hands but walking on our own, braving the merciless weather, alone... We walk our separate paths, hoping that we will meet each other along the way. We put aside our animosities and hatred to bridge the gap between us.

-------------------------------------

"Our Last Voyage" as I have titled this post, refers to our last journey together, to the land of the eagles. The thought of not seeing each other again pushed us forward and gave us courage that we never thought we had. We bridged the gap, hoping that this moment would never end. Whether it was sharing a burger at midnight or a bottle of *******; whether it was watching Arsenal beat Wigan or strolling on the beach, reminiscing those distant memories, we drew closer to each other.

And as the minute hand on our watches showed that this journey was about to end, a veil of sadness fell upon us and we just sat there in those last moments, sitting and spending precious time with our friends.

I will always remember our fun in the sea, spending time with my friends watching football and enjoying a local Ramli burger. I will remember playing that game of football and also trying so hard to push Lup Yeng up the Banana Boat. In class, I will remember those times we had to endure under the military regime of Pn Wong or the kind and patient Mr Tee. I will remember the name cards that Mr Chan made us do and eventually he turned into the English teacher we all loved.

As my parting words, I wish to apologise from deepest depths of my icy cold heart for any people I hurt. I often come across as a stuck up bast*rd and I realise that. I often don't share the same opinion and don't know when to shut my big mouth. I'm sorry. I would like to spend more time with you guys to make up for lost time but I now know that it is impossible. Again I say, I'm truly, truly sorry. Hope we can keep in touch and meet up one day. 10 years down the road, we must have a reunion.

-----------------------------------

On a serious note, I need suggestions on how to solve the picture problem. I do have some pictures but not all. I wish to propose that someone collect all pictures from everybody. I do realise that some pictures from the class trip are personal but for those which can be shared, please do so because there were many people who didn't have cameras that day. If someone can collect all the pictures and find a way to distribute them then everybody would be happy. So I need suggestions on how to collect and how to distribute the pictures.

There is another thing that Juliana and I are trying to formulate which is a time capsule. For those who don't know what it is it's basically a container that stores an item, whether valuable or not but important to the person at that moment in time. A few years or decades down the road, the people who buried the contained in the ground dig it up and take the items. The ultimate goal is to bring us together one day and relive those memories that we once shared as a class. Please leave your comments on this idea and suggestions on how to carry it out. I do hope that this comes true.

人生地铁

两年的时间就这样接近了尾声
班上的每时每刻也将成为过去式
人生，再一次进入下一个阶段
刚开始在本班，其实
只有所谓的陌生
好不容易，不，应该说是艰难的
认识了你们
是你们，让我度过了中四中五这段时间
是你们，让我感受到友情的真挚与可贵
是你们，让我经历这毕生难忘的日子
有人说人生有如地铁
相识离去就只那么一瞬间
但我们5s4只要肯抛开一切怨恨，团结一致
我相信这将会是一趟没有终点的友谊列车
无可否认的
我们正面临着人生重大的决折
往后的我们将各分东西
是的，中学时期就这么残酷的驶到了尽头
我不知道5s4所有人对我的看法如何
但我想要强调的，
5s4依然是最棒的！
有你们的存在更点缀了这多姿多彩的生活
我本身个性也许较为直率
这两年内如有任何冒犯
或中伤你们的地方
失礼了，在此深感抱歉本身并没恶意
最后，明天所有参与班级旅行的
愿大家把这一切美好回忆牢牢地锁在心中吧

An invaluable experience

Hello,

I am not sure who you guys see me as over the course of two years. Maybe I am known to some as some funny guy who always tries to crack a joke at every given opportunity, or maybe some may see me as a person who talks allot (In a positive or negative manner).

Just like many other fellow S4-ians, I disliked being in S4 during the first few weeks of our Form 4 years. I didn't really like the fact that there were so many people who I didn't really know. Fortunately, things changed and I started to enjoy every single moment of my final two years in high school.

Thinking back, does any one of you remember the old Mr. Chan? He used to be the hitler-style and totalitarian-dictatorship style teacher who demanded perfection and conformity. Remember those weird and troublesome "name-cards" we have to put on the table? We all hated that, but it all changed. Besides that, I am the one and only proud member of the "Shit-PPL" list. Haha! xD

The other thing that was quite significant in our class (at least for those around me) is the "ISA" movement. I cannot remember exactly how did this "ISA" trend start but I know for sure that our "elite" classmate Jonathan Wong is the proud founder of the "ISA" legend. For those of you who do not know why we really respect him, you must know that escapes almost every single wrongdoing and almost never repents.

(For the boys)
Furthermore, who can forget the PJPK training under Mr. Michael? I bet each and everyone of the boys reading this would be glad that it is finally over. Some of you may feel resentful as the some of the other classes can do as they wish during PJPK lessons. But why not look at it this way: Even if we went through the 'free PJPK lessons' over two years, it would all have come to an end like this. Isn't going for Mr. Michael's training better off? At least, we can proudly announce that we actually survived his training for two years and gone through it even though I believe most of us didn't really like it.

Maybe I've not been socialising in class enough, or maybe I just didn't bother to know each one of you better. It doesn't really matter who or what you think you are, I always have a firm belief that everyone was born different from the others. Some of us may be very much different from the majority, but it is always fair and good to understand from their point of view why they behave in such a way.

There isn't any main 'focus' in this post, I am just writing this as thoughts passes by. Maybe there will be more thoughts to come in future posts.

Before I end my post, I would like to apologise for all the things I've said or done that have effected any of you emotionally or physically. Sorry for all the grammatical errors also.


Regards,


Peter

It's goodbye for now...

I'll miss each and everyone of you. Eventhough I'm just someone sitting infront, not knowing whataver you guys are doing behind me, I'll still miss the noise of 5S4. The laughter from every corner of the class, will always be kept locked in my heart.

Gosh...I still remember the first day in form 4, I seriously didn't like this class. Everyone was a stranger to me. I came from 3B5, tagging along a few guys not even a girl. Duno who to sit with and duno who to mix with. It was lonely. Since form 1 till now, I always ended up in a class with friends that aren't close to me. Maybe God is saying GO MIX AROUND WITH OTHERS!

I seriously didn't enjoy being in this class at the beginning. Felt like I'm a stranger. Sometimes I felt that its better to leave the class to do my duties than to be in class. But I was wrong. Thank God I manage fit myself in some group (dun think i need to mention) and had my life going. Felt like I have a family again. They took care of me and I took care of them (at least I think did) XD.

Well, we should keep in touch always. Our class is amazing and you won't find any class like ours. S4 rox!! ^^ Although we'll all be seperated, but I believe, someday we'll meet again. It's goodbye for now. Love ya S4, always.
