i have made many friends throughout the years, indeed most, or i would dare say, all of the friend bonds are made through conventional methods, like, classmates, coursemates, friend of friends, clubs, activities etc.
and i have grown very fond of some of them. some i share my problems with, some i share my happiness with, and some literaly knows me inside out!
however amongst these friends of mine, there is one that stood out differently compared to others, like a sore thumb, but in a good way =)
honestly, i my first recollection of her was when i was the form2 coordinator in the prefectorial board. she was one of the trouble makers, or at least associated with them. pulling them out was like a daily business, we had target sales! lol. eventually, though they never mentioned it, they all hated me, naturally. WHO DOESNT HATE AUTHORITY EH?
but one fateful day, right after sports day while waiting for transport home, i had the chance to have a brief encounter into her life. i guess something happened, and slowly, and only god knows how, we began talking. i guess initially i was abit skeptical, maybe she was just sucking up so she wont get any more trouble for me.. who knew?
as time went on, through the year i guess we got closer as friends. it was weird i have to admit, seeing she was 3 years my junior! small kid lerr! haha! we sure do make an unlikely pair of friends laaaaaaaaaaaa..
and after i left school, i never really saw her. but everytime i went back to wesley for whatever reasons, i made it a point to visit my juniors. that is how friends should be right?
3 years go by, and suddenly she's going to aussie to study! thats kinda sad when it strikes you that one of your good friend is leaving. it's always until farewell that you realise you will miss your friends, and so yes, i will miss you! ironic how i have seen you more in a week than i ever had for the past 3 years eh?
well, to my friend of unconventional means,
although you are younger than i am,
your maturity surpasses your age!
there are so many things i've learned from you,
and i'm sure there are many more to come.
friends like you dont come by often,
and i truly appreciate having the chance to have met you,
to have talked to you,
to have learned from you.
just remember,
your greatest strength is your ability to smile no matter what!
no matter how dark the sky is, you'll shine through.
even if you have to resort to finding the best eat around,
i'm sure you'll tackle it with one hand tie behind your back.
when the sunrises tomorrow,
it is not the last day, but an absences of 9months between sunrises.
and when then sunsets,
a new chapter begins for you, and you will write a fantastic story.
i'll miss you without a doubt,
and i'm sure you will miss your friends here too.
someone awesome once told me,
"Miss your friends alot! but in some point of life, move on.. cause we might be overlooking something great in the making, just because we didnt give it a chance to grow into something because we're missing the past too much."
*winks =P
