i wish time would stop. or pass by slower.
felt like just yday, we were going to the market. u with a plastic bag and me with one too.
then i would get a toy, as a reward i guess for following u to the market.
sometimes i wonder back then whether i merely followed u to get a toy every week or just because i liked spending time with u.
it made me feel so important back then. when kirly and irwin would be sound asleep and i would wake up early to buy groceries for the week.
and then came primary school, i think that was when i stopped.
funny how things go as time passes by
how we didnt even know it would be our last market trip together.
did i go for the sake of going that time
or did i go out of courtesy caused u asked.
wennie, yiu mm yiu gan ngo hui bak sak?
i guess these are the words i will remember most now.
and then came the time where we had that evil maid. lol
primary school, came and went in a blink of an eye.
i still remember wishing it would be over as soon as possible
the exams, the PTS, the UPSR stress.
where about 20 of us were segregated from the group to 'self study' every day.
top scorers of our school huh. lol how cute.
where i imagined the stuff i would be able to do in high school.
of course there were friends. friends made to last a lifetime.
tanglaifah! i remember u waking us up just so we could be the first to see kuching.
it was really the best trip ever.
i seriously remembered u saying u wanted be fangruoqi the ntv7 presenter's successor.
but now, the future forensic medical doctor.
lol and how i always wanted to be a doctor.
how life changed us all, along with our dreams.
i was and am still proud to have a friend like you.
went back n told my mom, my friend is gonna be on tv next time!
haha
then came high school,
this time i was determined not to let time pass me by, to open up a bigger memory space to remember the things you guys did. lol the stuff i remember, they never fail to crack me up/
where i found out there were soooo many people who were faster, smarter and stronger.
shocking.
how i would never allow myself to get anything below 80.
and then with pei chee and yunxin, we ruled CHHS.
sports, grades and friends.
we had it all.
best times indeed.
and that trip to pangkor.
i still have the black sand in the bottle!
the amount of exams we had, lol nth can beat the stress we had, even until now
the number of msgs we would send during mid year and year end exams, till we each had a rm200 phone bill
then it as a levels,
where it was hard blending in with banana culture.
but i was blessed with banana cultured chinese speaking friends!
many firsts we had together, first clubbing night, first prom, first eating at posh places heh.
the best gang ever, where we could switch between chinese and english.
a first for us too
not too many gangs out there like us eh? :)
and now its uni.
some people, left and gone;
some dreams unfulfilled,
some things left unsaid.
would we let anything slip through our fingers again?
time, words, family, friends.

“Life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something else. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn’t. You take certain things for granted, even when you know you should never take anything for granted. “A tension of opposites, like a pull on a rubber band. And most of us live somewhere in the middle. “ Sounds like a wrestling match, I say. “A wrestling match.” He laughs. “Yes, you could describe life that way.” So which side wins, I ask? “Which side wins?” He smiles at me, the crinkled eyes, the crooked teeth. “Love wins. Love always wins.” ― Mitch Albom, Tuesdays with Morrie
