I realised that I never really blogged about my foundation year before.
It's just that, all of a sudden, I'm having all these flashbacks, and I'm missing my foundation year so much. I would say it's one of the best years of my life.
I entered Metropolitan with a church friend of mine, Tan Ai Vee(wearing a white shirt in both pictures) on 2005.
I was working as a lowly-paid data entry clerk at FMG Samsung before starting my foundation year. hehe.
At that time I was with a guy called Nicholas Cheah and everything was so blissfull, I haven't got a worry in the world. Everything was going the way I want it to be. My Family was fabulous, friends were exceptionally fantastic and I had a wonderfull bf who cared.
The first day I got into college, I just stuck with Ai Vee because I didn't know anyone.
Soon, we began making friends. On our first english assignment, we got seperated because our lecturer wanted us to work with people we didn't know..so..she assigned our groups.
I got into this group with TK and Sean.
I had no idea why, but the moment the lecturer said that I'll be in the same group as TK, I said "oh crap", OUT LOUD. (and later after a few years I realised he was actually quite bothered about that at that time, he asked what was it that made me feel that way. HAHA)
Honestly, I don't know.
Then, there was this mini drama that happened in college. Shall not elaborate further as it is quite p&c.
After that, me and Ai Vee kinda drifted apart and I was quite alone.
I wasn't close with anyone else.
And that was when Sean said, "hey, why don't you hang out with us, I see you looking so lost sometimes"
Since I WAS quite lonely, I decided, "why not".
From there, it was the beginning of days filled with laughter and joy. I got to know Tk, Justin, Sean and Tim better and was hanging out with them everyday.

Here's a mental note of what I remember about each of them :

TK (the one wearing the grey shirt in the third picture) was the notorious guy who always seems to be not serious in anything but there's a certain determination in him to get things done if he really wants to do it. I remember him asking me "what kinda person do you think I am?". And I answered, "you're the kinda guy who's nice to people, the kinda guy who can get a girl if he really wants to". Oh, and I had to constantly preassure him to do his assignments like a mother.

Justin (the one wearing the skull cap in the second picture) was the JOKER. He makes me laugh every second of the day. He can come up with various sounds, he can imitate people. Sometimes he made me laugh so hard I'd get a tummy ache. However, he can be serious if he wants to be. He's also another guy whom I had to force to do his work.

Sean (the one wearing the red shirt, in the middle pointing to himself in the third picture) was sort of like the player. Girls swoon after him. Even my sister likes him. Not like, like, just like as in like him. He was also the joker of the group and is very intelligent. Used to compete with him on some subjects.

Tim (the one wearing the "she's so lucky" red shirt on the third pic far left), I don't really recall much about Tim except that he's a good guy all together. Maybe it's cause we didn't talk much. Only talked to him while we're in a group. He was the one who fetched me and my sister to the first Malaysian Idol and got his car lost at the basement. We panicked and he thought his car was stolen.

All of us used to go to AC alot. They were addicted to pool and I would just sit around to watch them. Their port was the smoking session at Metro behind the cafeteria.
Other than that, we were pretty close to the rest of the class as well. The WHOLE class used to go for lunches together. And when I say the whole class, I mean every single one of them in the pictures. Imagine that. :)

My life, was just perfect.

But..as they say..nothing lasts forever.
Soon, we parted ways. Sean and Tim went on for summer classes while me, TK and Justin deffered a semester.

After that, I was hanging out with TK and Justin most of the time.
Broke off with the bf. Learned that we should appreciate what we have before it's gone.
Decided to switch to another college for my degree to start "afresh".

To sum it all up..Right now Justin is studying at HELP, TK and Tim are still at Metro but TK told me he doesn't hang out with Tim much while Sean is at Australia.

And soo...that's about it. The very simplified/summarized post about my University Foundation year at Metropolitan College.


I'm glad to have wonderfull memories to live with. :)

p.s.: It's not that I'm not happy with my life now, it's just that, not everything's been exactly smooth sailing lately, and it feels as though the train of my life is finally getting back on track. However, the question would be : is the track going to a better place or is it going to another broken track? only time will tell.
Ah, metaphors. Gotta love 'em.

p.p.s.: I feel as though my blog is like a story of my life! (tip of the iceberg stories)
