Recalling the First Days in NUSHS part 2

This is a continuation of my previous post. The other thing that I managed to recall about the first day of school was breaking up into our respective houses. That was when I met Long! I was sent to the Flemming house and I remember clearly that I was sitting right behind Long. He turned around and greeted me and Abi (who was also in Flemming) and introduced himself. I thought his accent sounded funny thought he was French. He was the second new person I spoke to in NUS High School.

The next person who I met was non other than Gregory Lau! This happened around day 3 to day 4 (big lag). We were in the same subject class and he was sitting right behind me and Abi. I remember that one of the first discussions the three of us had was about quarks (up, down, strange, charmed, top and bottom). That was before the first physics lesson with Mr Lim where he showed a picture of the physics professor standing on the wall in his first slide. Oh men! Mr Lim was teaching with ppt. that time. Can you believe it?

I also got to know Tat Leong at that time. He was sitting beside Gregory on the first day of lessons. He later went back to his old school after a term.

We had an introductiory session during English with Mrs Zheng (wonder if anyone remember her). That was when I got to know Samantha Wong. Why? Because she was the only one who could not remember my name and came to ask me a second time. -_-lll

Sometime later, we had our Chinese lesson in that Chinese classroom. There, I got to know Fung Ai Wei because she sat beside me (er...I shall not go into the details of how this happened, but she chased Kenwei away and say she wanted to sit beside me. That freaked me out.) I also talked to Yi Yi and Jing Xuan (and I found out Jing Xuan was from Nan Hua! Epic Fail!).

Now I need to go and salvage more memories of interesting encounters from my memory.

haha I can't remember where I was sitting already. I am really surprised you can actually remember what our first discussion topic was... Really cool...

Haha you should post about our research experience with yi yi and Sam Wong... Do you still remember any incidents on it?
