Pei Xuan once told me,"You'll have many friends when you enter poly, but you'll only have few true friends there". The year was 2005. Forward to 2007 and I now suddenly realise what she meant after all.

Seconday school life = JC life

Secondary school life ≠ Poly life

I don't think I've to go through the differences between the both of them, but what I can say is that poly's kinda a sneak preview of whatcha gonna get in the working world. Hypocrites. Backstabbers. And then there are the real, genuine helpful and encouraging ones.

I read somewhere before that one should have friends out of the working place. So to me: School = Working World

Friends in SS and Poly are definitely different. It's like in both institutions you're stuck with the same group of people for periods of time, yet the sense of emotional attachment is more prevalent in the former. I swear that no one has ever seen me cry in Poly, as in the 'ugly cry' sorta cry. In SS, the whole class and probably some more. Probably poly's the place where one grows up to be the working adult.

In conclusion, I'm glad that I've friends whom I've an emotional attachment to, both in and out of the 'workplace', even though it's fewer in the former.
