Guess who called?

Guess who called me?
Ms Ng. Yup, the mousy, nervous, high-strung Ms Ng who taught me photography in Poly.

She wanted to revive the alumni group for my year.

Embarrassingly, I used to be the president of my alumni year, but passed on the baton to a more "on" course mate because I was pregnant with the sprog at that time (yea, that was certainly a handy excuse).

Anyway, here's a portion of our conversation which I found hilarious:

Ms Ng: Are you still at TODAY?
Me: Yea. Why?
Ms Ng: Do you still keep in contact with any of your classmates?
Me: Yea (and I rattle off a list of whoever I still keep in contact with - actually, they're only two lah :P)
Ms Ng: Oh, how about the rest? Changchin, Zengmin, Dan, Angela Soh, Pamela... (etc etc)
Me: I'm not sure what happened to them. Why did you call, Ms Ng?
Ms Ng: Oh... You have a baby now right? How old?
Me: Yea. she's 6 months.
Ms Ng: So cute.
Me: Yea. Anyway, why did you call me?
Ms Ng: where do you live?
Me: Pasir Ris. It's opp Loyang Point. You know where it is?
Ms Ng: No, I don't. But can I visit you some time to see your baby?
Me: Sure! Errr... Why did you call?
Ms Ng: Actually I better not, since you're so busy now.
Me: No la. You're welcome to come over any time.
(Short pause)
Me: So why did you call, Ms Ng?
Ms Ng: Oh, actually I was told to revive your year's alumni group.
Me: Ah...
Ms Ng: Oh, how's Pamela? Where's she now?
Me: Huh?!

Anyway we bantered a little more about the teachers at school and the current batches of CMM students.

She's such a sweet lady, this Ms Ng. But I'll never forgive her for giving me a D for photography.
