reminiscence of yerterday

i'm glad i found them.

yeah... thanx to MukaBuku. since joining FB, i have rekindled with many old friends, especially from my primary school, ZS, whom i last met about 25 years ago (makes me sounds old!).

the outsiders - tom cruise, emilio estevev, tommy howell, ralph machio, rob lowe, patrick swayze, matt dillon.

yesterday i met Jue. seronok jumpa, she came here for a business presentation and we went out for lunch. alhamdulillah, jue is very successful now. monthly income sampai 60K. owns a BMW, but she came with camry yesterday. married with one child. anak pun sekolah kat Alice Smith International School. but Jue is as humble as before. yelah.. dia memang org senang pun, before masuk ZS dulu, she stayed in Manila. still cakap kelantan pekat walalu duduk KL dah lama.

i pun dah dapat contact semula ngan Nina, Farlene, Mimi, Elin, MIra, Irene and many more. Nina and Mimi dah quit their jobs, being fulltime housewives, tak pelah hubby depa semua kaya2. farlene is now a lawyer, working with his father's firm in KL. Elin kat Sapura. Irene kat SIRIM.

What surprised me is Mira. sungguh tak sangka, Nik Samira Nik Mustafa who used to be so shy and quiet is now a successful script-writer and film publisher. pernah tengok films - Cinta and Sepi, and now Setem? TV series - Kekasihku Seru and Nur Kasih? well she is MIRA MUSTAFA, wife to Khabir Bhatia, the film director. She is the publisher of the above films and tv series, filmscape.

i pernah tengok Mira Mustafa accept award on TV dulu, and pernah kata - eh, dia ni macam nik samira je. tengok2, betul pun. masih sama cam dulu. before buat cerita & film, she was with NST.

just now, i had a long chat with Mimi. happy sangat-sangat, seronok sampai more than 1 hour kami chat. masa sekolah rendah dulu, kami kaki gayut kat telefon, sampai my sister Liza selalu marah. buat homework pun dlm phone. then kami sama2 minat badminton. yang bezanya, i love 'badminton', tapi mimi suka badminton sebab minat rashid sidek. dlm umur 12 years old dulu, mimi dah pandai and berani call rashid sidek. she always called him. and biasalah... i ni kan good listener, maka kita sentiasa menjadi tempat mengadu.

Mimi ni memang smart. after ZS, she went to TKC - tg khursiah college. and we lost contact since then. she went to UK after SPM, and later work with few banks. she got married 2 years ago, and is blessed with one child, now 7 months old. she is now pregnant again.

ramai lagi yang i belum dapat cari... i have been googling for betty and hanis. they were my best buddies. hanis and me pernah conteng kat meja "perry king - hanis and nita will never end". we were MU fans. i minat bryan robson & mike duxbury, hanis suka graeme sharp from everton. pernah sampai perang mulut ngan betty and elin yang masa tu minat brighton.

old memories.. teringat zaman 'tiger beat', ZAS force & the cylons, outsiders, kebun sains - our rapunzel longbeans, performing at the year-end school parties, and the last dance together. and we wrote our names on the bola netball. and we cried.. on the last day at school..

came 1984 - i went to mrsm ktn, betty and mimi to TKC, irene to mrsm KB, elin and hanis stayed at ZS. and we lost contact. many stayed in ZS including nina, farlene and many others. they were also smart, but since they came from a well-off family, they prefered to stay with their parents.

but me and nina continue to write to each other till our days in Uni. she went to UK, and we last met in 1995, when she returned for good.

bilalah nak buat reunion? mesti seronok jumpa..

ahh... the good ole days!
