I was shocked, and I gave a yell. Frank and Nancy heard me and stopped whatever they are doing and went over to me. After assuring them that I'm totally alright, they went back into the cafe to find Bess and Joe. Oh yeah, Bess and Joe didn't hear me yell, so they didn't come to me.

Anyway, after that, I led him - no, it should be he led me - to the school balcony, his favourite spot in the school. I don't know, but that's what he told me.

Okay, now I'll stop and start with the introductions. The person that I bumped into is Penny Xie Kunda. Sounds familiar? Okay, I will start with one thing at a time first, because there are simply too many things I want to tell you. Kunda is my ex-next door neighbour. Okay, this sounds complicated, so I need to explain.

Kunda used to stay next to our house. But after his family moved, we lost contact. Later my family moved house too, so I sort of forgot about Kunda. At least, I thought I have forgotten about him. But now I know that I haven't. In fact, he did not seem to change at all. Or maybe, I am able to imagine what he looks like when he grows up. Take note, it has been ten years since we last seen each other. It's amazing that we are still able to recognise each other.

Maybe you are curious about what Kunda looks like. Well, he looks exactly like Liwei, an ex-member of a duo, Wewe. Hmm, how do I describe him? Long silky hair, pouty lips, a bit tanned, tall. I think that's about it. I know it's very little help, but well, I'm no good at describing a person. His long hair reaches his broad shoulders, and he stands at 1.77m. I'm only 1.61m tall. Oh well, he's a guy, of course he's taller. Now about his character. He's not exactly quiet, I mean, he doesn't like to speak up, but when he talks, it's like listening to a profound speech. Kunda is a shy person. But if you know him well, he is not exactly that shy; he just keeps mum when there are strangers around. Sometimes he also tells jokes.

Okay, enough about him. It's time to introduce his friends. They called themselves Energy. Kunda and his best friend, Toro, together with Milk, Ady and Joe, formed Energy. Kunda has known Toro since they were in secondary school. They became best friends after realizing that they share similar hobby, which is dancing. This got them together and since then, they have been hanging out together. Toro is more of a cute boy than a handsome one. With fair complexion and a boyish smile plastered on his face at all times, he looks almost like a Japanese. In fact, Toro is his Japanese name! He likes to collect Japanese dolls and all other Japanese stuffs. However, Toro has an English and Chinese name. Alvan Guo Wei Yun, that's his name.

Now we shall move on to Ady. Ady is a tall and dark guy, with handsome features. With layered shoulder length hair, he has kept his natural hair colour, which is black, unlike Kunda, who has dyed his hair to dark brown. He also highlighted a few strands light brown, almost blond. Ady has a pair of charming eyes which can send electric sparks flying out. His deep vocal matches the firm muscles in his body. I have not yet to meet him, but I think I will probably melt when I see him. From the way Kunda described him to me, I imagined he is a Prince Charming. Argh, I'm dreaming again! So, Ady's chinese name is Xiao Jing Hong. He also has a nickname, Ah di, because he is the youngest among Energy.

Next is Joe. He is a happy-go-lucky type of person. A pair of soft brown eyes and friendly smile, he is like the boy next door. Being sociable, he enjoys chatting with people. I sure want to meet him! Joe prefers to be known as Shu Wei because the 'Shu' is actually the chinese word for 'books'. Makes him sound more studious, Kunda told me.

Last but not least, is Milk. Milk is actually a nickname derived from his favourite drink. Milk is the leader of Energy as he is the eldest. Having a toothy grin, he is often teased by other Energy members of being Bugs Bunny. But he never really took it to heart; he was used to it. Instead, he would replied, "Isn't that great? You guys can be Felix the Cat, Astroboy, Garfield and Dear Daniel." Then the four would groan and pleaded, "Milk! Not again!" Milk would ignore and continue, "Maybe we can be Cartoon World instead of Energy." When I heard this, I burst out laughing. Maybe I have a weird sense of humour, but I do think that Milk is such a comical person. Sounds like Energy is a fun group. Maybe I will enjoy the five guys' company in the school. Oh yeah, before I forget, Milk's chinese name is Ye Yi Hua. Yep, that's the end of my introduction of Energy.

I haven't met anyone of them, except for Kunda of course. But I've seen their photos. I can't remember who looks like what already though. I do wish I could meet them personally. It's probably easier for me to remember them. But anyway, this is only my first day in school. I can't expect a million things to happen, huh? Say, I need to leave now. Farewell from Ireland!
