A day of happiness and then SADNESS...
I had a wonderful bdae celebration thanks to 2 babes, j and s. Steamboat dinner which was topped up with a mini bdae cake was followed by KTV till the wee hours of the morning. Thank you so much. That was certainly one of the more memorable bdaes i had ever had.******************************************
After which i took the long trudge along over to the Changi Airport. As i took the travellator up at T1, i went past the Arrival Hall. Happy faces could be seen as they greeted their loved ones as they made their way out of the belt even at that ungodly hour of the morning. No wonder the Changi Airport claims to be one of the busiest if not the busiest in the world 2day. However, a feeling of sombre struck me as i reached the Departure Hall. There as i waited, i could picture and imagine the emotions that would go through me in an hour's time. This was going to be the departure of my best friend to the US for 1 year. I had not been looking forward to it but reality finally arrived. The time for him to leave was finally here. Here i could experience the contrasting feelings between the 2 Halls.
Here's a tribute to B (if he does get to read it):
"U've been a great fren these 8 years. I am gonna get all mushy but without u in the coming yr, I can imagine and forsee the loss i m going to go through. Do not worry about your loved ones here especially j, for there's still me and your family around to hold the fort. I admire u for ur courage to seek a new overseas experience even if it means being all alone in a foreign land in the cold. Great man pursues great things. Do your best and learn as much as possible over there, be it in your studies, work or even the daily household chores such as cooking or house manning. When you come back, u will be able to be an even better person, bf, son etc."
This is roughly the gist i've to say due to the inconvenience of not having a computer now, the rest i will communicate via email. Today, 29th Dec has brought two extreme ends of emotions for me. One happy, the other sad. 1 yr may seem long, but it can go past if we keep ourselves busy. U know sth, I am looking forward to my 24th bday already...
