We arrived in a completely foreign land ten years ago, curious and naive. Watching the lights emerged from under our plane, we were excited.

Now, 10 years later, we are no longer the same. No longer the young teenage boys and girls. We have jobs, or are pursuing higher education; some are planning to marry very soon, some are looking for a house. 10 years still seem to be a concept too big for my mind to wrap around.

Our gathering on Saturday was pleasant and exciting. Squeezing in a small room in Sentosa, we played card games and board games, laughing and talking, all seemed to be familiar, yet different.

I can still remember we girls having language lessons in Cedar language room, visiting St Patrick House, going to 会馆, visiting MOE, having meeting in MOE Edutorium, listening to the rules about our O Levels, etc… There are so many things…

10 years in Singapore, I still can’t believe that’s how long we’ve been here.
