TKC77 - a reunion!

       It's really, really, REALLY gonna happen! Yeayyyy....insyaallah. What started out as idle talk between The Usual Suspects over one of our lunches led to a few of us appointing ourselves as a committee of sorts. Even our "Associate Member" got excited and volunteered her services.
       Truthfully, we didn't expect such a good response...taulah batch kita ni kan...suam-suam kuku aja most times...hehehe...But we didn't reckon on Ajeel...the Dictator Extraordinaire!! Ajeel's strategy, a combination of arm twisting, threats, playing on sentiments [korang nak tunggu batchmate kita ramai lagi mati ke baru nak get together??], worked wonders! She personally roped in enough members to make the reunion possible and at a critical time too. Zai was ready to throw in the towel at that point ;). So AJEEL - KUDOS to you, girl!! We shall kiss your a*s* later okay :D
       Special thanks to Zai, Leha, Robi, Ani (Associate Member) for their effort to recce the original potential venue in Melaka. Also to Zaki for calling every possible person she could think of from our batch - sampai ada yang kami tak kenal pun!! Thanks also to all the others who cajoled yet more others to join this reunion. Dan terima kasih tak terhingga to our sponsors, Khuzi and Daing. And thanks to Facebook - it would have been quite impossible for our batch to touch base often without this medium.
       To date, 6 (am I right here?) have left us....never to return. I'm sure they'll be there with us in spirit. Arwah Ani Aziz would have jumped at this chance to touch base again if she had been alive - I'm pretty sure of that. In remembrance of our dear departed friends, we will be holding a tahlil session on the evening of our arrival. Lets all pray that Babe can make it to the reunion - her mum isn't well.
       I don't know about you girls, but for me, at 52, death seems so "real" somehow - almost tangible. So lets make the best of this time together. Lets forget our differences and make amends. Lets get to know each other again - as adults. Lets embody the spirit of "berkasih sayang". We may never see each other again after this......
