& your love is all i ever wanted
Remember those years you had in your primary school? the times u spent in that familiar compound, the teachers, the friends you had there?
Everyday I would pass by that compound on my way to work. Each time i pass by, i would think back on those times i had spent there. But this Once familiar compound, had become stranger to me now. The building is there, some trees had been chopped off, the paints were changed, and the stage in the centre of the quadrangle had a different appearance and looked wierd without the school logo fixed in the centre.
The people of course had changed. The school had moved out of this compound since Jan 2009. But how much had i missed this compound. The familiarity of the compound for 6 years, I could still remember which room belongs to which. The little pond within the school was covered and the building had belonged to a different organisation for a tamil school. =( Once a chinese school had turned to become a tamil school, a total contrast. The colours of the building had changed from deep blue or navy blue, to red, green and yellow. The words on the building :
"诚Honesty" - We Are Honest And Sincere,
"毅Perserverance" - We Have The Determination to Overcome Difficulties,
"勤Dilligence" - We Work Hard And Strive For The Best,
" 俭Thrift" - We Spend Money Wisely And Are Not Wasteful ,
were wiped off from where it used to stand. You could see the trace of it being covered over a layer of white paint, but it had became faint.
The new school surrounding at towner road, was even stranger to me. I dont know where to go if i were to step into that compound again. I still preferred the compound in victoria street. Even though it might be small, But it would certainly be where i preferred to be in.
The times i had spent in the "old" compound of my school will be remembered.
The Memories will stay with me, burried deep down in my heart.
