It was the annual MAF (mid autumn festival) of HC yesterday. I didnt attend it. I felt that there wasnt a need to participate in the "celebrations" since majority of the class isnt even going.
Even though the carnival-style celebration, consisting of the climax of the lighting up the entire school and the mass dance, was created in name of the chinese festival, the purpose behind the party was using the festival as an opportunity for old classmates to meet up, catch up and reminisce. Who in the right mind for youths to celebrate such a festival which place emphasis on traditions on eating mooncakes, viewing the full moon and drinking hot tea?
The celebration utilise on aspect of the MAF - reunion. Forget about the mooncakes and tea drinking! You can really say viewing the moon was part of the plan since the celebration was conducted on a new lunar month - The New Moon. You will just be staring into the dark sky at night.
Reunion, 79 doesnt really need a reunion! The guys just met recently for the "bbq + drinking" session at royston's dwelling. Although I always thought jiaqi was radical about the girls in class, now i actually felt that he was quite right. LOL. Lets not discredit them for they are Year3 now. There's alot of mugging and assignments piled up on them. It is up to one if he/she wants to find time out of the busy schedule. Make some sacrifice. It goes back to priorities. I wont say their priorities arent right since they clash with mine. I totally respect their decisions, however, I will keep to my faith - end the day with a big bang! I need (s)excitement!LOL
Time cures everything, it also erodes everything. Relationships are meant to be maintained, someone has to take the initiative to do it. People tend to let laziness overflow. Staying with the status quo is always the best option. Inertia.
Lets Hope the class doesnt die out now..
