Great Friends for Life

Then again, a day passed. If you ask me what my feeling is lately, it'd be a wierd combination of frustration, disappointment, anger, hope, joy, love, and contentment......

Doesn't matter what causes me frustration, disappointment and anger. What really matters is i'm so grateful to always have 'F' right beside me when i need them. And what is 'F'? Finance? No. Food? Guess again, Patsy...;) 'F' stands for nothing but....Friends. Yes, F-R-I-E-N-D-S.

What exactly is friendship? Is friendship just merely a word? Or does it bring a deeper meaning, of which only people who appreciate it will truly understand the necessity of having friends in life? Proudly, I admit that i do love my friends a lot, no matter if they are my classmates, MPYO friends, or friends i meet through my tennis class (^.^) By the end of the day, they are people whom you count on when you're away from your family, they pull you up when you are down; they are your friends.

I do have a very close friend in the well-known, whackiest 5 Arif in the history of CGL :p I have that day 3 years ago to thank, when she offered me to be her seat partner. Since then, we've shared our problems, ups and downs; we've gone through thick and thin together. Joyce Teh is the one i always count on for a word of encouragement, a smile of hope and a ray of sunshine when i am down and depressed; and i really value her as my close friend...

Not forgetting another lovely pair of 'couple' in 5 Arif - Patsy and her husband Ange :) Patsy, the Cute Piggie or Goldfish, is undeniably cute and lovely!! OOOHHHH!!! (= She has also given me lotsa help and support, especially when we're against "Her". Ha ha!! Without Patsy, it is just like the sky without the sun, the sundae without the cherry, the latte without the foam... However, may i introduce you to the other side of Patsy which is still undiscovered, unrevealed... She calls me 'Glutton' even though i ate only ONE piece of wantan... Sob, isn't that sympathizing?? (Psst, i actually ate a bowl of dry curry mee ;)) Ange, the Poker, always bullies me with all her poking :'( And so i defend myself by poking back!! HAHA!! And there's where all the fun starts! The two of them, Patsy and Ange, are very 'secocok'. Heeee!!! Yet, the two pairs of couples, are the best of friends in class. Aren't we? ;)

Ange, why that look?

~The FOUR Best Friends~

On the other hand, i do have a few great friends who are always hanging out together with me. Hmm, Shu-Li is a great friend cum roommate to have. Being roommates for two camps, we shared our feelings, our secrets, our laughter together :)

Besides, Stephanie Tye and Zhao Feng also listened to my problems when i needed an ear. Not knowing the meaning of boredom and tireness, they gave me encouragement and advices when i turned to them. On the other hand, Jeorgein is a demure girl and swet friend everyone knows. To be exact, i was the odd one in this circle of friends - the only violist in a group of cellists ;) - but they treat me very well... I feel wonderfully enjoyable when i'm with them.

Everyone needs a friend. To be precisely, everyone needs friends - and a few close ones to count on for an ear, a hand, a cheer and a song...

Dear friends, let us cherish our friendship forever and please do keep in touch!! =) 友谊万岁！:-) #

With lotsa love,
