I simply love the fact that for today..everytime i looked up into the sky, i know that somewhere across the Pacific Ocean (i hope it's the right ocean), ting is celebrating her birthday. And that fact alone makes it a wonderful day indeed.


heh.
it's ting's birthday!

i miss ting like hell. As in it's bad enough she ain't in spore.. but she's not even on MSN due to her exams! #$%@*! exams! you...you... friend stealer!

okay! here goes.. it ain't gonna make anybody cry but i just wanna express to ting in her own way how much i love her!

to dearest ting;

i love you for creating such happy memories in NYJC with me. Doing crazy ass shit stuff like "borrowing" pei's present (remember how long we lingered around?? hahaha!) and ogling at band guy(well.. maybe not so much) and monkey! Of course, there is all those loverboy stuff which greatly entertained you guys.. And there was seng tat (HAHAHA!), the P.E. lessons where miss audrey called a 2.4 km run "a refreshing breeze" and of course the showers right after P.E. First came Batman and Robin.. then came Penguin. teeheehee! And remember our chinese teacher who matched her clothes? Remember the time when we couldnt see her because her dress was the exact print of the brick wall? I remember how we would howl with laughter. Those were times when we really laughed belly-ache-wanna-cry laughter! Remember how we had to go SPH Holdings for our report and we waited for a bus so long, Zuhairah had to write in her notes that the bus went on strike.
I remember studying over at your house, attending wendy's tuition lessons with her smashed in tortise and many hamsters and the bus rides home.. I really really miss those times. NYJC wouldnot have been as fun without you there.

I love you for all the happy times after graduation. We worked together and bitched about the horrid kids, waxed lyrical about the nice ones. Remember making the huge ass candle in my house? Hahahaha I think i have it still! Then we went into NUS together. That first sem was the happiest sem. i remember moving into PGP together. And all the dinners and late suppers together. I remember how after a bad day, i would just knock on your door.Living as real neighbours.. Remember our pact that if i had a lizard in my room, you would get rid of it for me.. and if you had a cockroach in your room, you would call me? hahahaha! Turned out that the one time a cockroach chose to show up in your room, i wasn't around! You have no idea how badly i missed you after you moved to australia.

You once said that it's funny how when one person gets you down, there's always another to pick you up. Well, it's mostly true because you have always been there to pick me up after i come back from a huge bashing in the emotion ring.

I love you for all the times you stood by me. I love how you are when i get into trouble. If i committed murder, you would probably reasoned out why the victim deserved to die! heh. One incident which stands out in my mind is when you duan broke up with me 2 weeks before the exams, i had to run to your house and use up one whole box of tissue. And you had to alternate between revising and comforting me. and the recent incident of robin has made me really grateful for having you in my life. Not only did you not judge me, you told me that we would get through it together. Having someone there to just listen and not judge me really helped a lot. You knew then, that although i couldn't bring myself to see him for what he really is, the words "it's your fault" would break me. Im really really grateful you stood by me while the whole mess crumbled around me. You were my emotional safety net and i really need to thank you for that. Your emails were really awesome. I love how i never had an indication from you about how your friends confiding in you was a burden. i love how i know what i tell u stays with you and how you always are willing to be just be there. Every time i have a bad day, i always sign in to MSN messenger to see whether you are there.. but it's not the same as knocking on ur room's door huh? i miss you so...

I love you.. I love everything that has made you the way you are today. I love your funny little quirks like your socks in JC (hee! hang ten! i still can remember!). I love how u cannot get drunk ( of course that bottle of tea had a lot to do with not getting drunk.)and i love your chim ge lao sai blog posts. heh.. in case you didn't know, the topic sentence is "i love love you!"

So i hope that you had a grand time celebrating your very special day. screw the exams! :)

happy birthday my love.
