To those who miss the old club room.

Hello all!

This is probably a totally different tone from the previous picture-filled,happy post.

A totally,totally different one.

Perhaps when we move towards our new beginnings,there'll be times when we see,our.

M.E.M.O.R.I.E.S.

The past,that we've yet to forget,perhaps never will.

Today was the random unpacking of the new club room.

Reorganising of some stuffs.

Ransacking every single cabinet,looking at every corner...

"I really can't find my batteries!!!!"

Until very,very long later,...

Shir exclaimed that,they were actually at the most obvious place,right beside the door -.-

And then we continued.

Zh with his dust allergy,me sneezing every now and then,shir being called by us so very often.

The printing station is almost done,while the small lil hidden corner is a mess.

So we lalalaaaa and then,we left cause its time to lock the doors!

After that,we left the photog room.

And we went to our photog room.

Found many stuffs left behind,things that we were searching for to bring down.

So zh decided we shld leave our stuffs there while we wash our hands while shir and i insisted we bring our bags along.

But we ended up staying more than just the time we require to take zh's bag.

As he left for the toilet and shir,for her frd for just a moment,I was left alone staring at the empty room.

It looks big,have never seen the room so big.

Filled with dust everywhere,and maybe hair,or spiders if they've not abandoned the place like us.

The pen lying on the floor.

My random filled-with-electrophilic/nucleophilic-addition/substitution-mechanism paper.

Monday.

In the room,mugging for chem.

Friday.

In the room.

Nothing else.

Just the room,literally.

):

We really used to despise the old room and grumble about it ):

How narrow it is.

How small it is.

How dirty it is.

Blah blah.

Definitely not as spacious as the new room.

But now,there's no workbench to sit on and swing your legs.

No paper that sticks on the wall that says "No bags on the workbench."

Definitely not as cool as the new room.

The floor is just cement,and when you mop,the area darkens significantly.

And then,the dark area disappears as quickly.

How shir,van and i were fascinated when we first mopped the floor.

Perhaps the new room will be fun to mop in.

Relative to the old room?

I think the old room will be more enjoyable.

At least there are spider webs to destroy :D

Definitely not as bright as the new room.

Where we have light entering,we can look out beyond the club room.

And maybe shoot hall events inside using a 70-200 with a 2x teleconvertor and tripod to stabilise it.

But we lose the freedom.

The world being just the photog world,away from all noise outside.

Though i gotta admit old club room is really noisy :p

But...

The old club room is the one and only.

Not that the new one isnt.

The old club room...

Squeezy,and it puts us together,literally.

The place you can run in and out of school so quickly cause its just beside the side gate.

We can change one room into two on Saturdays where we monopolise the study room.

Or we can just live in the mess,one of our many weird traits.

And how i can just display my equipments on the workbench.

Chin Chye helps me clean the lens while i write it into the log book.

Just,...

Many,many,many...

But still,we're now in a new room.

So sudden,so fast.

I thought we wont be the exco to witness it.

Idk if its smth to be proud of,but i guess so.

Like how the exco that had our current photog room felt when they have that room.

Yet now,they'd prefer a btr place.

A place where a permanant studio can be set up.

Not one where you'll have to go around searching for a place for studio.

But i thought we'd love our old room for all its perfections and imperfections.

Like how me,shir and zh does.

We talked really long there.

Those times...only to be remembered,never to be relieved.

And the saddest sentence i've heard today...from shir.

"I'm in the room beside the study room."

Ange.

P.S: sorry i just got too engrossed and it turned out this long :/
