5 days away from home. i've been up to malacca and down to loyang aloha. i gained lots and lost some of it too.. almost let myself down by brooding over the things that were lost, but i remember what Job 1:21 said " the Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised" . still kinda sad though.. the things the guys gave me were so cute.. and they took the effort to get something for each of the girls.. but careless me had to lose a portion of it. hope it's somewhere in Aloha loyang. but i guess not. Nvm. i didnt lose everything.. oh well.
the BBQ was one of the best BBQs i've ever had.. like wing sing is such a great cook.. and the guys had enough sense not to get chicken wings.. so, no bones=) smart people. and da rong got a make over.. he was the star attraction for the night with his nice spiky hair.
i think i'll miss every single one of them, not knowing when we'll meet again. all of us together playing, tai-di-ing.. from bel and val who are always so lively, eli with her graceful ways, to shallin, my friend of 6 whole years.. jeanette, my old flame.. kimmy and MQ to balance all the noise.. jing yi, liru my two very good friends=) jasper for tolerating my nonsense (actually, everyone tolerates my nonsense, but to a lesser extent) and Xueli, for being so prim and proper all the time..
melvin, jia cun for crapping during PW and letting me have my way most of the time. and Da Rong for being sooooo forebearing even when it's obvious that everyone is picking on him.. to shin hung and shintaro for being such good brothers.. haha.. chen xi for calling me jie jie, even though he's older.. haha. and not bearing any grudges even when i drenched him with water.. cheng wei, lawrence, yong kuan, jun gang, augustus for helping me with school work unconditionally.. wing sing that mugger who wont admit it.. and finally to hoong ta for being such a good friend.
of course, we would all wish the holidays and the happy times could go on for a long time to come, but i think it's the end that makes the time spent together worth remembering...
i owe them lots.. for all the memories given, friendships shared, and for crossing my heart leaving their footprints behind..

Although the fig tree shall not blossom
neither shall fruit be in the vines;
the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat;
the flock shall be cut off from the fold,
and there shall be no herd in the stalls:
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will rejoice in the God of my salvation.
Habakkuk 3:17-18
This lullaby is only a few words
A simple run of chords
Quiet here in this spare room
But you can hear it, hear it
Wherever you may go
I will let you down
But this lullaby plays on
">
misses and crosses
