Long lost friends...

On Monday 06/03/2006 , I had another suprise of my life.... the whole team waited patiently for their lawyer to come (me) to paint a beautiful picture, through my presentation, of the various products that we want to sell, to the customer... and the main shareholder of the customer, Azri budak Kedah, turned out to be none other than a former classmate when I was in Maahad Hamidiah!!!
Nearly 18 or was it 19 yrs ago?..... He was quite taken aback when I described to him the vivid details of some of our mutual friends in fronnt of the team members. The chaiperson then cooly proceded to remind me that I am their lawyer... so kenalah berlaku adil to my employer (nak buat macam mana). Anyway, it seems that he is going all out to belanja me & a few friends tomorrow night!
And there is another, a friend by the name of Hazman Halid. This guy sat right next to me when I was in Form 1... before dia cabut to another school. The excerpts below was taken from his Blog http://www.tukangtaip.com
Over 20 years ago, I lasted a couple of months in a boarding school out in Kajang. It’s that piece of memory that has been tucked deep inside the folds of my mind. I remember nothing of it. I’m amazed when I found out that that the kid that sat next to me in class not only tracked me down through my blog, he actually remembers every single detail in graphic lucidity. Holy cow! Reading his description (that he sent to a mutual friend) made me fall from my seat. This is something I simply have to record:
(of course I would delete my own email that he posted in his Blog but there were comments also) Somebody had misrepresented to him that I am now a sharie lawyer..

Truth is, I’m having a hard time recalling too, except for the name that rang a bell from the deepest crevices in my brain. Heard he’s a Syariah lawyer now… err a religious figure reading my blog? Die lah.. I’ll prepare for a loadful of corrective advice when I meet him hahaha.

For the record:
1. I flunked my Arabics just as I nearly flunked Bahasa Malaysia during SPM. I know how to order tawook in those Arab restaurants back in Dearborn though, thank goodness.
2. It was my school for 2-3 months before I moved back to PJ and continued in this Catholics missionary boys’ school called La Salle (I am Moslem and have chosen to be insyaAllah).

One of these days I am going to give my friend a call. Thank you to Sis Anum, Brother Chal's sister, for Hazman's handphone number
