Dying from cambridge withdrawal
Here i m again, ranting abt the cambridge withdrawal tt has really affected me greatly. Saying tt i m dying from it is definitely not an understatement. Haiz, i shall admit tt i m currently sinking into a state of depression. Immense sense of longing. This shall b the zillionth time i say, I MISS CAMBRIDGE!! Ahhh... i miss everything tt had happened n every1 tt had been in cambridge. I really dont mind u guys dirtying my room if we can still b in cambridge now. Still can remember every single specific detail of our daily schedule in cambridge.
I miss waking up at 7am (london time) to brush my teeth, back to my room n coming out to the chilling corridor at 730 to shower, passing by libens room with his alarm clock ringing n seeing mel finished brushing his teeth. At around 8, mr sze wld b knocking on our doors n we wld appear one by one at the corridor, normally with eechong being the last. We wld then stroll down to the dining hall. Once we entered, brown trays on the right n green trays on the left. We wld then b greeted by the same usual breakfast we had every morn. Bacon, sausages, harshbrowns, sunny-side-ups, mushrooms, baked beans, croissants, choc pastries, toast. To the left of the juice dispensers wld b 1 big basket of fruits including our fav oranges n bananas. The juices wld b arranged in the following order: orange, redberry, apple, multi-vitamins (except for our last day there when it was redberry, multi-vitamins, apple n orange). It wld then b the 2 coffee machines from which ms chua wld get her cappuccino with half a teaspoon of white sugar. There were 9 choices on the coffee machines (starting from left, top to bottom): espresso, doppio espresso, latte, hot water, cappuccino, mocha, americano black coffee, milo, hot choc. There wld b white sugar n brown sugar (1 bowl each) n tea bags lying in a basket. To the right wld b the machine tt dispenses water. It has 2 taps in which the right 1 works better than the 1 on the left. In the middle there wld b 4 different types of cereal n 4/5 jugs of milk with jam, marmalade, honey n butter lying around. B4 walking past the door, there wld b a few stacks of serviettes which i always managed to fully utilise. After tt, we wld find our seats together n enjoy our breakfasts, eating n laughing like mad at the same time. 1st time i hav laughed so heartily n so much for so many consecutive days. Building our abs as we once said.
After breakfast, it wld b lesson time n a few hrs later, we wld meet for lunch together. Since lunch wasnt included for the trip, we the cheeky ones wld always try to sneak our food past the cashier if we r not having microwave food for lunch, especially the smuggling of desserts. But either way, i still enjoy our lunches together, whether its microwave food or stolen food. N as usual, we wld laugh while eating. Suats cackle wld then b the most contagious. Other than laughing n eating, we wld also b 'sight-seeing', especially mariaaaaaa who wld b searching for her erhmm...beckham, aka alberto.
After lunch, we wld return to our respective classes till evening when we wld meet again. Tts when all the various activities begin. Basketball, soccer, pomelo, bridge, etc. N b4 we realised, it wld b dinnertime. Same dining hall, same pple but uber fun nonetheless cos the laughters were always there. Still remember liben n i once had our dinner with the bursor of cambridge. After dinner, we wld b preparing for our night-time activities. Other than 2 special nights when we went out to watch movies, we wld normally play card games (bridge, most of the time) till the wee hours. Of course, we did hav phy n chem lecs on some of those days but with the company of this grp of pple, those lecs didnt seem to b boring at all.
This was basically how we spent our weekdays as we had different activities on weekends but i shant go into tt since i blieve someone has blogged abt them b4. I really hope u guys can blog more regularly cos i really really hope tt rj cambridge'06 can always keep in touch. Otherwise it wld b very wasted...all those memories... For me, this wld truly b unforgettable. Ok, shall stop here b4 i start crying again *sobs* Shall force myself to fall aslp to stop me from thinking too much abt it. Hope to cya guys around in sch more often!!
