Alma Mater and The School Spirit


We had a wonderful Annual Dinner at The Royale Chulan last Saturday night. Everything was alright... Ramli Sarip rendered our favourite songs, Our Old Boys Coffee Table Book was launched by Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and a few other interesting events.

Anyway, despite all the wonderful happenings, a friend of mine was grieving in his Facebook about his long lost friends from his own batch whom did not turn up for the memorable event. Well among other things he wrote was, "Dari jumlah 116 yang masih hidup...Kemanakah mereka yang lain ? Adakah mereka telah menjadi ahli fraternity yang lain selain ASAS ? Adakah mereka telah berpaling tadah menyertai fraternity isteri2 ie Sri Putri, Tun Fatimah mahupun... TKC ? Atau adakah mereka telah lupa tentang kehidupan mereka yang lampau...Membesar dengan nasi kawah, berproteinkan ikan jaket besi dan ayam cilik.... Atau mungkin mereka malu dengan status sekolah Melayu....Setelah mengharungi penghidupan yang glamor di KL ini...Walau apa pun, saya harap mereka akan kembali menyertai Saf ASAS sekali lagi.......
