the other day i was at a job interview where i was applying for a marketing position. i was told that i'll be required to do abit of designing and stuff. so they were asking if i had brought the 'works' i've done. and silly me didnt, of cos. was practically hitting myself on my way back home. and when i got home, the first thing i did was search through my trash for a poster i did for YG magazine and a brochure for CO's recruitment drive. ya i noe it doesnt make much diff now but i jus had to take a look at it. so i managed to find the poster, which made me glad i didnt bring it to the interview cos its quite fugly to be frank. as for the brochure, it was in my antique ibm laptop, which is officially pronounced dead as of today. it jus wun start. seriously, where are things when you really need it??
anyway, i found this book from CO as i was digging my trash. something which we came up with in poly year 1, where all members could write their crap in it. and reading through it brought back much memories. memories of the place, the ppl, the things which we did and that i was ever their "芳少" with 4 姨太s, a 丫鬟, and a housekeeper. i found myself laughing out loud at wat were written, esp an entry written by a particular member who signed off as Aaron Kwok, which drew comments like "KANNA SAI", "大便都不如", "aaron kwok 的脚毛还差不多" ok, maybe it aint that funny, but i laughed so hard i almost teared. i could jus picture jess' expression while saying that, and how MS will be rolling his eyes. hah. i guess those first 2 years hadnt been that easily erasable afterall.
and reading further, i came across a short para written in pencil by a very dear friend.
人生就是这样。。有些事不是说能放就放的。。要忘掉一件事和放下一件事。
是这么难的事，但为何人生就必须要经过呢？
人生就是这样。。今天不知明天事。。
也许你今天看到我。。可能明天不再看到我。。
人生的过程，说长不长，说短不短。。
有些人拥有很长的人生过程。。但有些人却拥有很短的人生过程。。
所以要好好把握你现在所拥有的一切。。。
indeed, some pple dun haf the privilege of seeing the years pass by them. many a times i wonder, how would things be had you not left? would i still be complaining while waiting for you to have lunch together? would you still readily onz me for a game of bball in NP? would we still be meeting up for shopping and movies at bugis junction? and would we ever have the chance to travel overseas and explore new horizons together? ....... would we?
i believe that in our lifetime, we would meet that someone who's destined to change our lives drastically in one way or another. for better or worse. i believe i have met mine. but for better or worse? im not sure.
having not baked anything since sec sch and with some help from mum, the cakes were not half bad i'd say. And apart from the lack of proper equipment, it really does feel like im back in mrs ong's home econs lesson.
