::tribute to 4/5::

classroom 405
=============================
from the top
the noise is pretty eminent
screams and shouts
from none other than
albert and eleine
u cld even hear ms chan teaching
down the corridor
the ppl walk by
"so glaring!"
they always exclaim
the girls flip open
their small-sized mirrors
as the morning sun shines
mrs sim always comments
the unison of our girls
combing and tying hair
the vainty compelled
pe arrives and we hurry to change
mr chee comes forcing us
to run a round or two
we'll miss mr chng then
coz the running part will be skipped
but captain ball will be our main
regardless of the ringing of bell
back to class armed with packet drinks
we race to the fans
to cool us down
"class stand"
peigee will command
the band major of 4/5
and ruoqing will startle to wake up
the rest follows
joyce and zhiting
leem wuai and michelle pang
as their heads lifting from tables
quiet and studious
cassie,piakloo and ling
books left bookmarked in their hands
class will be silent
esp during physics
to catch up on
what mr peh dind't teach
and noise will return
during the break
mr pandian always promised
as mdm noridah walks into class
noise will reign again
for nothing is usually done
when bell rings for recess
LSN will rush out first
flying down the 6 storeys of stairs
anita,marie and san
head for the toilet first
rena and shouzhen will queue
and poor jinling will always
be left behind
with pearlie of coz
and linda and elaine
the 30mins always seemed short
the lifts were usually jammed
with teachers always
forcing us to climb
not to mention
seeing weisheng,serene,yiwen,
yewchye and olivia outside the lift
when we reach the classroom
of coz with the help of nice teachers
ms khoo and mr kam for sure
the lift will be packed with 4/5
praying for no teacher to notice
one corner of our "2nd home"
val and kawing
whispering sweet nothings
and the other corner
albert and connie follow suit
behind the class
chinese idioms fill the atmosphere
chess boards taken out
ichess,xiang qi or just dumb
watching esther vs joel
jingngei vs junxiang
or chung kwong vs xing chen
there's no need for aircons
coz there's a natural 'coldness'
esp in that area of the class
definitely it'll not be as cold as
our very own ice berg mrs siew
of coz there's our national sailor
lo manyi!
with her best friend yuhui
a big fan of her
out of the blue anything can happen
under stressful circumstances esp
during math lessons maybe
xiaohuan will be the victim
and sjabs will carry her down on a stretcher
mr chia will get worried
and horray! another math lesson gone
as the saying goes
empty vessels make the most noise
seated quietly at one corner
michelle teo and xiao thong
the wisest of us all
not forgetting
the one and only
we always 'admire'
our humanities 'king'
kua keat hou
