Missing you -miles away

Posted in friends by xiu1201 on September 28, 2009

I am missing you

And you are miles away

Sometime this or last week,

I wish you were around to wipe my tears away

I wish I could tell you everything that happened,

And you’d gently remind me that I am one brave girl.

I ask God, my dear Sophia,

Why did He put you miles away, away,

and at a point where I feel most attached to you…

A point when the friendship blossomed so much, so deeply.

But I know the answer is that, the distance wouldn’t pull us apart.

I miss you, and I want you to know, I coped with the situations back here.

And I hope that no matter where you are, and I may not be there physically for you,

You also cope bravely, and with a smile trademark of your resilience, courage and beauty.

I love you, my best friend!

Monday is non-blue!

The most wasted day is that in which we have not laughed. – Chamfort

I thought his quote is quite beautiful. It is true. Why not be happy every day?

Today was really a joyous day for me, definitely not wasted.

I spent the noon with my ex jc classmates, (Chloe, Sijie, Nia). We went back to our alumni to collect our certificates, before heading to the old familiar hawker centre to have our lunch. Such meet ups at places that hold so much memories, and with such great company, is priceless.

Evening, Gary and myself met up and we each had this outdoor camping ingredients list in our hands. He brought me along to help him find out the pricing of the ingredients list for his camp. And with the list and pen ready, we went to the Marketplace to look for the different items. He knows the Marketplace better, so he knows where to scout for the items, and I was beside him writing down the prices of the items on the list- in scribbles that he can only laugh when I pointed it out to him.

It was immensely satisfying, to tour around the almost empty and very very cold Marketplace (they blasted the air con), and we both in our warm hoodies, finishing up the pricing list. Chicken sausage, check. Salt, check. Prawns, check. Chilli Sauce, check… …

Small moments like this, make the heart smile.

Good days like this, make the week better.

Sunday!
