A Broken Chain Fixed
There is this cliche that goes like, "distance makes a difference". And i have to admit that i have long been grounded in this belief that it has become my justification for any breakups of long-distance relationship and friendship. Well, to date i am still clinging onto this notion, but then i am sure that there are, of course, some exceptional cases that have surfaced in an attempt to prove that this commonly-held belief is not entirely true. (oops...what am i thinking about?off the topic, i suppose!!lolz....)
Anyway, it didn't occur to me that things like facebook, hi5 and the like are able to bring people who have long lost contact together again until one day when i logged into facebook, only to discover that a BUNCH of my secondary-school classmates have been keeping in touch with one another through facebook ever since they graduated from Temesek. I saw those many photos they took together during their gatherings, all of which were very funny. And now that i have added all of them to my contact list, we are finally chained together once again despite the distance that keeps us all apart. We are trying to catch up with one another. To me, they all look pretty mature, a far cry from what i remembered back in secondary school years when they all were anything but mature.
Well, I have to admit that i was not very close to them at all. I didn't even BOTHER to hang out with any of them. Looking back, i didn't quite understand myself too. Probably i had certain nasty stereotypes towards them. Maybe i was not that mature as i thought i was back then. I sort of regret now! Anyway, if i pay a visit to Singapore, i will definitely long for a reunion.

Icy Hour: I've never forgotten them, and i won't forget all the great time I had in high school, but I think they are the one to leave me themselves, so wat? Distance's fault? Partly, I think.
I still keep in touch with 2 of my frns back in high school, but not very often :( so sad
Well, if we give a deeper thought, we should be grateful to a small group of geniuses who have changed the world to become what it is now. And if we give even a much deeper thought, we should realize that this small bunch of people worked so hard just to improve our conditions of living and make everything more convenient, so we should take their samples and don't give up when encountering problems. Hold on! Why am I so talkative today? Actually, I have more to say...but i don't wanna bore u to death. hehe...
Come on! Make it a bit more gentle blog. k?
