This is not my first time i went to PTEM and certainly not the first time stepping foot on it but on that day,it's just indescribable but i'm going to describe it anyway. Teehee. That morning,I woke up at 5:30 am. I grabbed my towel and went downstairs to take a shower. It's been a long time since i wake up that early. That exciting feeling is just unforgettable. I checked myself in the mirror,I spotted two eye bags and I just smiled. I couldn't sleep the night before. I'm so sure for those who are anticipating for tomorrow know how i feel. So I put on my clothes and switched all the lights off. I unlocked the front door and step outside. It was the most unforgettable feelings. The sky is still dark blueish and the sun was fighting it's way up to welcome us all. The birds were singing. The melody was drifting with the cold morning wind to my ear. I totally feel like they were welcoming me with a broad smile. The scent of morning dew is so fresh that my mind become so clear and relax. It's like people were lining alongside of me to give a way for me to walk. I stood there for as long as i can remember.
On the way to school,my mom was complaining that she's cold. The air conditioner just became strong that morning. I whispered in my head, " I feel chilly too but it's just weird. My heart seemed to feel the same way too but way more than that,Weird! " Butterfly on my stomach followed after that.
I shook and kiss gently my mother's hand before i set foot on the ground of the front lobby. Coincidentally, the national anthem was sung so i stood together with the others as a sign of respect to our beloved country. I saw people were busying around looking at the paper on the notice boards. The seniors in charged handed out their hands to help us. We were told to look for the tutor group and proceed as fast as we could to the hall directly. I was grateful that they were there. How nice it was to think that I have a seniors like that in my new school.
I thought, " this is good. I'm sure i'm going to survive in this school" and produced a smile and made my way. Along the way, I met with Husna,Shaff and Ezey! They are my old classmates.
I met a new friend there. I was finding my seats and when i finally found one,there's already a girl sitting beside it. She smiled and said to me, " Haii,you're Zawanah Omar right. From facebook."
I replied," Owh,yes that's me. umm.. how come u know?"
She said," Don't you remember? I am FishBall (her facebook name). You asked me whether i came from SMSSA?"
I was just surprised. Never thought someone actually recognized me. I answered," No,sorry i don't remember but nice to meet you." I handed out my hand and smile. She took my hand and smile too. That was the beginning of our friendship. The introductions began and the induction programme started after the national anthem and the school's song were sung by the MP students.
After we were dismissed, I came to look for my old classmates. They were hanging around at the corner. Mostly boys. We chit chat and went out. We were having our break time. Some people went to canteen,some were just sitting and chit chatting,some were looking around and some went to the notice boards to fill in the timetable.
We went back to hall for a short briefing and we were let go with our group tutor. They showed us the place from corner to corner.My Group Tutor now is Mr Parkish :) We arrived at our reg. room. He took attendance. He asked who wants to volunteer to become the leader and the assistant. No one raise their hands. Some of the girls who know me suggested me. They wanted me to raise my hand. I want too but only if all/majority of the class agree to it. After a short silent,sir gave out a paper to my new classmate who was also sitting beside me at the hall during the briefing just now. It was for our duty rooster. I thought she's our new assistant monitor so i congratulated her. Thankfully she said no. Hehe. I actually want that position. So before anyone take it,I went straight to Mr Parkish and volunteer myself :)
He continued "OUR SIGHT-SEEING". hehe. Then he dismissed us and told us to go anywhere we like. I managed to find my old classmates and one of my girlfriends. The place was just so crowded. We went to canteen and bought some foods. Then we met my other girlfriends. Now,we are complete. We found a seat for everyone. We met our seniors from our previous school. They kindly greeted us.
Slowly one by one gone. I was the only one left and was still eating. Why am i always the last? *sigh* My friend,Nad was actually there to accompany me but she hasn't met her boyfriend for a long time so i don't want to disturb them. I finished quickly. Shaff left her "NEW" pencil case (haha) at the table so Nad and me went to the front lobby to return it hoping that she was still there. Luckily she was! Her car has arrived though. My friend,Jatt asked for my company to The Exhibition Hall. She said her ride will wait there and so i did. I also asked my mom to fetch me there. While we were waiting,we had a nice chit chat about the day. Her ride came first.
Someone patted me on the shoulder. It was my old classmate back in primary school. Her name is Farizah. We were reminiscing our childhood. Then,there was one girl who came and ask for direction. It took us awhile before we realized that she was our classmate too in SRDS. How funny fate works! We had a chit chat. she kept coming in exhibition hall and out the lobby as she was not sure where her ride will be. In the middle of that, My ex-classmates,Ezey and Adhan were there too. We had a chit chat. Adhan just kept silent waiting but constantly nodding at times to show that he was involve with the convo. He is always like that but i'm used to it. Ezey's ride arrived and i waved at her sister. She is very kind and always give a good advice. Also smart and pretty like her brother.After a long waiting,My mom arrived. My sisters at the back seats were smiling as if craving for my story.
