Thursday today. Monday was the first day of school for the new J1s into PJC. Well, that signals the end of the J2s' "monopoly" of the school grounds... hahas!!
Anyways, besides not being the only ones in the school anymore, there was also the problem of the morning squeeze on the bus, the prossibility of being late as a result, and the long queues in the school canteen during breaks as well. Well, despite being aware of all these, I was still caught quite unaware.
It was probably due to the fact that there were lesser people taking the bus for quite a period of time already, bout almost a month, and the fact that there was no squeeze for this past month, that I was quite unused to the morning squeeze that morning. Wow... forgotten how squeezy the bus was in the mornings, what with the students from secondary schools, primary schools and PJC, plus the working crowd fighting to get on the buses. And that's despite there being 3 or 4 buses that we can take, mind.
When I got to school, was greeted by OGLs chorusing " Welcome to PJC... " at the school gates.
Had assembly in the parade square as usual, without the new J1s though and then went for lessons.
When break came, the canteen was literally filled already... filled with screaming and shouting J1s cheering. Compared to before when we could just walk into the canteen and find many empty tables and just choose any table to sit at, today we had to search for an empty table, which was not easy at all. Thankfully, the queues for food were still not that bad as most of the J1s still had MG activities, and were gathered around groups of tables joined together, hence the explanation for the lack of tables, there wasn't that many J1s queuing to get food yet.
Going home after school, again the squeeze for the bus. Its like "fight your way up the bus or WAIT!!!" Guess we just got to get used to it... the new year has begun!
