  I prefer the Take That version... That was my secondary school days.
  
  It was a nice time. I think it was that period in my life that defined and shaped my personality today.

  I have many (reminiscences). The hardship ones made me "stronger" but when I "looked back", I have no resentment nor bitterness.
  
  The sweet and beautiful ones are stored in my "treasure chest" and every now and then, I "take it out" to idle away with thoughts and imagination.
  
  Events and people are part of my history. Although the ride is not always smooth, I thank God that I have been blessed.

  I think I know why most guys enjoyed NS tremendously. It's because it's a single sex environment. And when we are that age, we tend to be shallow when it comes to the opposite sex even though we may not be shallow in general.
  
  I enjoyed my sec school days tremendously because it was a girls' school. I was miserable in JC because it seemed to me every other person was trying so damned hard to impress someone of the opposite sex with some lame thing.

  was in a uniform group (all boys school) when i was in sec. school. Was tekan by the seniors worse than in the army... at least in the army, they still have TSR to protect you.. but it builds up the comaraderie among us cos we share a common enemy (the seniors), go thru the same experience...
  
  all the camp fire songs will bring back memories.
