This City Never Sleeps
Tuesday, May 10, 2005 @ New Born Friend
Found another friend from Bedok Town primary. Mr Foo Siang Wei, yes, he knock on my door and asked me if i am a student from btps, and so we clicked on, and i remember who he is.

Yensie called me yesterday to clarify who is this mysterious dude, and i told him he left btps in pri 4 cos his family moved to Woodlands. She remembered: oh, that fat boy from cheetah house rite? haha...he still looks plump as ever.

The feeling of meeting your old friend is really great, especially someone who has left u 11years ago so suddenly, and gives you no response on where he goes, how was he and etc...just like vanishing in thin air. Yeah, FooL (as what he claims) lost contact with us for 11yrs.

11 years...wow, been thru so many incident, before he could meet his friend and his crush. The death of Teresa Teng, Princess D, Mother Theresa, stepping down of President Suharto, Indonesia riots, millenium bug, 911, Iraq war, the collapse of Taliban dictatorialship, end of Saddam Hussien, outbreak of SARS, death of Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui, Richard Harris and the tsunami, departure of the late Mr Wee Kim Wee...the stages he has been thru before he can meet his friends again...

And after that 11 years, we are no longer young, cos we are now living in a no man's land: aged 2o, one is no longer a teenager, not yet a man. At this stage, one's thought would be more matured, and think things and issues in a more matured view. So, that's why i say new born friend, cos we are no longer young, and we no longer carrys the childishness we had in pri sch to adulthood.

Welcome, my newborn friend.
