 I am feeling quite nostalgic today - I'm recalling my last year in secondary school, in fifth form ,
in year 1956.  The school: St. Paul's Institution, Seremban.  A few of my schoolmates that I
could still recall were: Eric Fonseka, Wong Ah Kow, Tham Chee Keong, Chan Foo Yee,
Goh Siew Soo, Muthu, James Kingham (our Head Prefect).
We all sat for our Senior Cambridge School Certificate Exam - there were no SPM then,
as we were still under colonial rule.  I have not met any of them ever since we left school
and went our own way in life. I am sure they are all septuagenarians as I am.  The girls
from nearby - the Convent - were: Elsie Gan Yip Peng and Margaret Soh.  I am sure all of
them are grandfathers and grandmothers by now.  School going time were the happiest
moments in our life.
