Wanda SG I mean....especially for those who'd left school many donkey years ago? My college mates are organising a meeting, and I haven't seen them in years! We had met up in the earlier years after we left school, but now, at least one of them have become a tai tai-cum-maid-slave, and for some others, the meeting has to be postponed until after their kids have their exams. And I haven't met the uni classmates. So do you meet up with them? And what happens when you meet up? Do you notice how much less hair or white hair the others now have?
mystee SG actually i find meet up with old/ex classmates who are not very close, the scenarios during the meetup is cold & plainly to entertain the rest, by asking this & answering that... especially the moment when we jz rch the meetup point... to conclude.. i m anti-social & i will try and escape to meetup any "not close" classmates.
honeymouse SG I have lost in touch with nearly all my friends except one or two I went to school with in Brunei since I came to Oz. As for uni friends, I still meet up with a few of them (4 actually) every so often. It used to be once a month but most of us are married now so it's getting harder to do so. Anyway, I am making a good effort to see one of my uni friends everyday - he's my hubby.
Wanda SG This is what I'm afraid of also...coz I'm not close to them and I think they will be talking about their kids and such...
shinta SG primary sch frenz nia.. and some poly frenz.. there's this sec sch fren of mine... we'd start calling each other once every 2 years passed didn notice that until we actually try to recall when was the last time we talked to each other.. she was the one who noticed it tho.. a proud mama of 2 b-e-a-u-tiful girls now
mystee SG ya... most likely they will.. cos the topics will be basically... kids, husbands, bf, works.... thats abt it i guess... so i usually i will jz try and find some excuses & not go...
alwaysdisturbed SG in my opinion, the work and work until you die lifestyle in sg simply don’t permit that. everyone’s so busy with the next phase of life after leaving school.
Wanda SG Once a year is very good, but maybe the timing is to your disadvantage. We used to meet up during x'mas...until some of them started getting married, and then the yearly meet-up stopped.
viciouskitty74 SG I totally lost touch. meet on the street also will not recognise them that easily. surprisingly, there is now number of classmates/schoolmates locating me thru friendster.
the Bear SG was best man of friend i've known since Pri 2 when we meet up, all we do is talk nonsense and drink beer
Wanda SG Good that you still have common things to talk about. I remember a classmate from Sec school - we kept in touch regularly after we left sec school. Then I started working and she went to uni overseas. After she came back from her uni studies, I found that I can't talk to her with the same level of closeness, as I found her still a little childish whereas I've been working and see things a bit differently...it's a shame, really, but I guess people change.
Fatum SG I'm still in touch with a primary school mate ...... and my two blood brothers from secondary school are still in contact with me ..... I have lost contact with every single one of my poly classmates, mostly because all of the ones I hung out with have since turn into MLMers .... ironically, the only poly chaps I keep in contact with are the people from the ECAs, the student union, the council etc ...
choco B SG I meet my primary school girlfriend about 3 times a year. She's a mom-to-be now! The other close schoolmates, well some have relocated, but we meet up when they come to visit. Others are lost by attrition
