Happy Birthday and all HAIL to FRIENDSHIPS!
Happy Birthday to Mr Fax and Mr Wee!! Today is Mr Wee's 25th birthday. Yesterday was Mr Fax 22nd birthday. These 2 buggers are my buddies since very long ago, secondary school days!
Going out with them to ICE-COLD BEER for a few drinks later.
And also..Happy birthday to Juewei!! His 22nd birthday on the 19th! Juewei is another of my buddy since kindergarden! We've known each other for 18years..a long long long time...Speaking of him, I'm going to his house tmr, he just moved homey, so invited us to his place. Shawn, Romano Juewei and me are friends since kindergarden..such long friendships..Currently,Shawn, Romano and me are staying in the Jurong area, only Juewei shifted to Sengkang. Damn far.
It all started with all 4 of us staying in AMK, studied in the same kindergarden, subsequently, Romano, Juewei and me went to the same primary school, Shawn went to another, but we are still in contact. During Pri 2 or 3, Romano moved to boon lay. Then at sec 3, i moved to Jurong west, followed by shawn who moved to Yishun. Juewei still stayed in AMK.lolx..through all these years we kept in frequent contact with each other though we all went to different secondary schools. Just recently, shawn moved in to Jurong west, just blks away from me. So we are like back to where we begin again. Lolx. This is really a strong and long lasting friendship we bulit that is tested against time and distance. How many of us really have close friends at this age that had known each other for close to 2 decades? Not many I guess. Well...Buddies always!
Speaking of friendship, there is this email I received many years back(apr 12 2001) which till now i still keep it. I find it very meaningful and it depicts reality so coldly and truely. This email was sent by Huiyue. Huiyue is one of the BEST friend I had in my lower sec days. Those were days when Huiyue, Xiaohan, Chunyan, TianGui and me always hangs around. I still remember, Huiyue was the 1st friend I made when we were in Sec 1, when we were all dumb and stupid. hahax.. We all grew apart after I moved house in sec 3 and now still in contact but we all lead our own lives now.
Alright, the email goes:
Are you a Reason, a Season, or a Lifetime?

I believe that there is some truth in this mail. But whether to make a friendship a reason, a season or a lifetime is really up to an individual. It really depends on the amount of effort one put into the relationship. It works the same for LOVE too and in fact, the person you love most is the BEST friend in your life. If you do not consider your gf or bf or spouse to be your best friend then who is?
