friendship [Sep. 7th, 2009|08:44 am]
[Current Mood |melancholymelancholy]

all my close friends have left for their own exchanges overseas.
lijuan, alyssa, cordelia.

benkheng is leaving too.

i dont really know how I am feeling.
upset, excited, sad? its just a mixture of emotions i guess?

anw, Aly left last night. i didnt have time to say goodbye.
cause i was so caught up with the preparations for our levites' skit.

but i read the letter she gave me.
and i felt something i've prolly never before.

FRIENDSHIP.

after knowing her for 10 years.
We've seen each other almost every other week.
one would think we would be best of friends.
but truth is, we werent.
we never shared with each other how one would with a close friend.
true we talk about our lives, stories and all.
but never in depth. feelings, thoughts.

but in the letter, i felt her overflowing honesty.
and i realised, what i wanted in a good friend is.

honesty.

not how interesting our discussions are.
or whether we have similar music interests or not. its.
how honest we are with each other.
how much we trust each other enough to want to share our deepest thoughts

i wished i had probed more, get her to share more with me.
a little hard now.

now faced with departures, we turn to what we know best.

ANBERLIN! ((:

though i didnt know many songs. (: they played a few songs from the album i know.
the moshing crowd ruined the first part though.
after all that waiting in the crowd, being squished. the moment it started
i couldnt take it. had to go outside.
damn sian okay.
but luckily the guys were helping if not it would have been worse.
but standing on the outer side was okay too. could at least concentrate on the music. (:

i love anberlin now.
must convince seth to lend me his babies before i fly
so i can listen to them. ((:

anw, the fanboys were really amusing. HA HA HA. ((:

HAPPY NATIONAL DAY!

i love Singapore. truly i do.
all those times when i complained about the education system, the people, policies, the lack of talent.
it was times i picked on flaws our nation had. every country will have their own set of flaws.
now that im about to spend most of the next 3 years away from Singapore, i think i'll miss her.
face it
our country really is amazing. all the things we debated about.
"no identity, no culture, lack of a politcal scene"
well, we're only 44 years old. in comparison with the other great nations, US UK.. etc,
we are not even fighting on equal grounds.

ignoring the superficial flaws, i guess deep down Singapore really has grown so much. and is really one of the best nations to ever live in.

during the Day of His Power, i really felt for Singapore.
i guess God really placed that love in me. now im gg to proudly say im Singaporean.
and even if i start complaining about stuff, deep inside, i will always love her.

praise God for His blessings on this nation! ((:

" Happy birthday my friend.
Here's to all the years we shared together
all the fun we've had.
you're such a blessing,
such a joy in my life.
May the good Lord bless you
and make ALL your dreams come true! "

i've been feeling so lethargic lately. i think i need to readjust my sleeping cycle.
sleeping at 3 and waking up at 11 isnt helping much
and i need to start exercising.
oh man but i feel so.
wasted lately. ):

anyone want to go dancing? hahahaha.
oh well.

we went to ACJC to support Tobias in the
Physical Theatre Festival.
was nice especially the last play.
"stuck in Neutral"
moved many of us to tears.
(: then supper with the usual bunch of us, with yam and crawshaw
(i wonder why we call them by their surnames. its nicer i guess)

then cabbed bck with bishannies and bong.
HHAHA. derek was like singing gaily on the way out. at. 11.30pm.

"you cut me up and i keep bleeding"
makoto's rendition. (:

today was funny.
6 of us went into a hyundai, driven by a less than a week old driver.
we made a wrong turn into the condo carpark instead of cathay's
and had a traumatic experience as Derek U turned by into the road to turn in.

oh well.
today was fun except now im down with a fever.
DAMN SIAN
by faith it wont be H1N1. (:

today during the induction talk,
there was a segment of the time given to the principal of Northlight

well, all i can say
is that it really tugged at my heartstrings.
when i hear the stories she tell,
i really think of TYA and the children.
i understand her circumstance
and i was really reminded about how much these people really need us to show them love.
without any strings attached.


i really thank God for my life.
its amazing.

*audrey leans on my shoulder to nap*
*pushes her away*
" audrey. we're progressing too fast. "

HAHAHAAH. considering we're going to see each other for the next 3 years.
HAHAHHAA/
