When we met at 4 years old, i guess we never thought that this friendship will last even untill today. Many has indeed happened in these 15 years, and i'm really glad that our friendship went through all of that.
I remember i only got closer to you when we were in Standard 2 and became best friend in Standard 3. I still remember those 'mm tak' thingy. Lol! too bad that autograph book was lost in Indonesia. Anyway,innocent times, innocently sweet. And then we got separated in standard 4 onwards. I remembered those times about the dreams, the poem, the teacher..haha! It seems really stupid right now XD but really..its one of those precious memories stored in each of us i believe. After all those times, at last you are in the same class as me and the rest of the G4s - Chai and Ng. *i still can't believe we chose that name >.<* Crazy times indeed! I miss those times..=(
In secondary school, i thought perhaps this friendship will just falter away. Probably because i thought this is how the way it should be, what people normally do and any other stories i heard of before. But really, im glad that you insisted on persevering on. It's hard especially we are in different classes again. You called me to join choir though i really got tired with it in primary school but now i'm glad that i did go. Then we joined basketball too. Though in Form 2, i pulled out, i still love it!HEHE Another memory is that, thanks to you too, i have this memory of singing solo. Come to think of all these and many others, you really did encourage the adventure me to come out from its shell.
How odd it is. I still remember you sharing about Jesus to me. And also this story when i was in Form 2, when we were having Moral at the back of the class, not listening to teacher like usual, about you willing to save me from drowning if your mum and dad are also drowning with me. I couldn't understand back then of course and thought you must be lying. But really, i didn't know you are so strong in God. I admire your passion for God. I admire how strong your faith is. I admire all those hard times you've gone through but still you are clinging to God. I admire your humility. And really all of these taught me a lot. =)
I guess the meeting back when we were 4 years old was really not by chance, but by purpose. And yes, i agree again, you are so different than me. Totally the opposite.xP. I'm the calm one while you are the not-so-calm one. I'm the patient one, you aren't..really..ahaa. I'm the focused one, but you are not really. =P You are the sensitive one, i'm not really. You are the verbal one, while i am more to the non-verbal. You are the more detailed one when i'm not except those problems with maths and science questions. etc etc.Well, maybe all of that might have changed now after all of those influences around. Though all of these differences, i hope you did learn a bit from me as i've learnt a lot from you. Of course, by all of these differences, there were indeed many misunderstandings, disappointments and fights between us, but i'm grateful that you did not turn your back towards me. I'm sorry if i ever hurted you in any way, and im sure i did a lot. Now, how i wish that there'll be more time for us to do more things together. And yes, i'm also glad we got to know each other a lil bit more in this year after all these years!
Anyway, i know you went through a lot in Australia and its hard. Maybe i will never ever get to understand that kind of situation you are in, but be strong alright? Keep pressing on no matter what. There'll surely be an end to the desert you are in now.
I don't know why only now i'm writing this post. I should have written this one year ago when u migrated to Australia. Perhaps i felt at that time, you haven't really leave yet that there's still chance to meet in this one year time. But i know, this time, your leaving means we'll only meet again after 5 years or more. This reality only slowly sunk into me in these few days. =( I don't think whatever i just wrote here is anywhere near 1% of what i want to write because...this friendship is already truly beyond words for me.
Anyway, its really great to have you as my best friend all these while. You've truly been a blessing to me, and i hope i am to you too.
i will really miss you, Eunice!
Love ya! =)
p/s: this is my first time writing a post dedicated to a person. lol. and i wrote this days back actually. Hope you can be able to take all of these words. x)
