the gals I grew up with

Finally, I met up with them. Some of them, at least. Hilda and elly after 2.5 years, Sharon after 1.5 years. They all left to study overseas, and before I know it, everyone’s graduated. Only Hilda’s still not back permanently. Yet. We’re all such busy people, only managed to meet up 1.5 hrs before we had to split. (and met elly’s mama too!! She still remembers me.. aww..) It’s such a nice feeling talking to them. Noone’s changed. Other gal friends grow up, mature, become more feminine, change their life plans. But this bunch of gals never change. That’s why I love them. ^_^ I’ve only known Hilda and Sharon for 10 yrs.. but I’ve known elly for 14 years! She still remembers the days we did projects together, making MRT trains, swimming, and my brother (only 4 years old then) shooting rubber bands at her! Haha.. that’s how her memories of my brother remain as—naughty little boy. She’d be surprised if she sees how tall my bro is now! It wonders me to realize how much each of us have been affected by one another.. sharing some life changing moments together. Our first criticisms, our growing out of naivety, our discovery of who the real Father is. I can never be more grateful to have known them all. Since they’re mostly back in Singapore, I should meet up with them more often! Too wonderful people to have missed out on the past 4-5 years of their lives. Thus I shall add on to my new year resolutions—to meet up with 401 gals more often! ^_^
