Thursday, April 19th, 2007The Lost Necklace
Thursday, April 12th, 2007The necklace is one of my most priceless possesions..
Platinum rectangular. Written in chinese ‘Yu Yee, Kat Cheong’. Mom gave it to me when I started to have my own wings and left the comfort of my own home. It was… hers, and grandma’s.
It was mine.
I went to F6 with it. Start a new chapter in my life. A new circle of friends. Sets of challenges that I went thru and now look back victoriously. When I am alone out there, home is near in my heart. The little rectangular white plate hung on my neck as a reminder. I used to bite it. I survived STPM.
Start another new chapter in my life. New course, new place, new friends, same old necklace. I go everywhere and live my life. I even went diving down under with it. Became a part of me, without realizing it.
I had no reason to take it off.. until one fateful day. One grand night. Annual Dental Dinner last year… I took it off, to put on something else. Lest that I know, that was the very last time I see and touch it. It was misplaced. Lost…
Being so used to have that necklace around my neck, suddenly not having it is terrible. Considering it wasnt just another necklace. It was a treasure passed down. How can I be so careless? Tho we are celebrating the success of the dinner, the untied knot cringed tightly deep deep in my heart.
It had been a year plus since then. I am still who I am. It’s not like without tat necklace I became a different person… God is still with me. This God had been with me more than 10 years already. I do wonder why am I so emotionally attached to the necklace… Material, isn’t it. Yes, but… missing it still hurts.
I would love to see it again… coz no other necklace (or any full-time jewellery) can substitute the one tat mom entrusted me.
O Bummer !
Thursday, April 12th, 2007Gladly I looked forward to dinner with Brenda tonight. Being at home so studious is simply taking my life away. Argh!!
Yay, reached 1U early enough for me to buy some stuff from Giant. Kwan called at 8pm plus. They arrived edi. I quickly paid and dumped my bags in the car.
La dee da. Had a nice dinner. Nice friends, nice food. Nice to see Brenda, she looks great. Always a dear friend =)
1030pm I reached home. Parked. Walked to the passenger’s side to unload my Giant stuff and realized… AW MAN!!! One of the bags is not mine!!! Imagine the shock.. I had taken what someone else paid for!! How would tat person feel, after paying and went home realizing that some tomatoes and packets of beans missing?? Gwash. I am so dunno wat to do… Dun even know how to sanely return it. If I take it for myself, I don’t even know how to cook/use them (tomatoes and beans)! O bummer.

Last Friday… I did something cool.
Or rather, cooling.
It was Joan’s birthday and I am sure she expected us to celebrate at 12 midnight. Instead, we all just pretend nothing happened and went to bed early.
Sigh, to wake up at 6am plus!! The moment my alarm went off, instead of the normal gimme-5-more-minutes feeling, I felt my body charged with adrenaline. CHARGE!
One of my wild desire is about to come true. I went to the balcony and get the special purple baldi, and went to the fridge to prepare Joan’s cake and ice. Then Chei and I went to A1108.
The house Jenny, Foong Yee, Yun ZI and Pik San were silently awake and awaits the moment. Special spying agents Huey Yoke and Tze Wei lie awake pretending to be asleep in Joan’s room. Spy TTW sent out a msg informing us tat SUBJECT IS IN THE TOILET. WAIT FOR SIGNAL TO ENTRY. I felt funny, like some kind of stealth mission.
We silently waited for a few minutes. Joan was taking her sweet time, man. Why is this sleeping beauty suddenly feel like going to toilet. Then… the miss call arrived!
I got the purple pail ready. They got the cake ready. Pik San entered the room and opened a path for me. Sweet Joan, sleeping like a baby. She covered her eyes too, so I am not worried about her suddenly opening her eyes (and frighten me =.=). All wide open for attack… evil laugh… I’m coming… (o gwash, i sound like a maniac)

ICE POURING ON JOAN!! KROSH KROSK KROSHKKKH!!
She woke up in Ahhhhs and jumps, and her housemates sang ‘Happy Birthday to you..’ I quickly hid behind Jenny them for fear of Joan retaliate. Aw, should’ve kissed her and said Good morning, darlin. Tat would be SO funny.
Tat was fun. I did it!! Ice pouring on Joan. One of my crzy desire came true. Thanks also to my dear coursemates of A1108, creativity and love, but none of u wanna be my partner in crime… sob. Hehe!!
p/s Joan dear, dun think about revenging on me…
