Hong's Little Diary

This blog is inspired by my best friend, Chloe's blog. I even use the same title as hers.

Still remember 3 years ago.. That was after my SPM.. I can say the post SPM period is probably my best ever holiday. Ipoh, Pangkor, go-cart, yumcha at Sitiawan then chat in Lumut, go explore Selekoh, make egg tart for Chloe's birthday and so much more crazy stuff. Everyday I will be only thinking of what to play and when to meet 'her'. We did meet everyday without fail for 31 days until 'she' needs to go KL to work for a few days. I can say.. I really enjoyed the 31 days a lot. It won't come back. But at least.. the sweet memories is still with me..

When we grow up, how many of ur so-called best friend will still be there for you? I can still vividly remember the '8 st john gang'. We did a lot of crazy stuff together. Buying and wearing the same Giordano 'me' T-shirt when we go out and play. Boys will be wearing the blue ones while girls will be wearing the pink ones. Seriously.. we wont do that again. Not a chance!!!

It is because things changed. The gang is broken. All 8 of us are separated now. One left the group 2 and a half year ago because of 'her'. He never contact any of us until recently. He refused to answer our call, wont reply our sms. Well to me.. that was stupid. Then two other left when they went to pursue their degree at local uni. (medic & bio-medic). So just left 5 of us. Then a year later, 'she' got a boyfriend so can consider as leaving the group as our gang is demoted to 2nd place in her heart. WS went to UPM and ever since then.. the gang just left 3 survivors. Me LL and Chloe. 3 of us still 'sheung yi wai ming' in Teluk Intan.

Well that was until last year when me came to MMU and LL went to work in Singapore. That was it. Broken to the pieces. Don't mention meeting with them. I hardly can even talk to them now. The one and only best friend left is Chloe. Well she was my best friend since 8 years ago. We still chat like before. I still bully her like before. Still the same old me and same old her when we are together. Really felt grateful that I am still her best friend. I wonder what will happen 8 years later though.

Was chating with Chloe after my exam when we suddenly talked about our 8 st john gang. Seriously at that point of time I was wondering.. the 8 gang.. it is only me and 4 others syok sendiri tubuhkan the gang? Because the 3 others never really admit they are in the group. Is it real? Maybe its real.. for like 2 or 3 months? It's been 3 months since I meet any of them. Even coming back for holiday this time, I don't think I can meet any of them. I suppose maybe we will meet next year. CNY is now our annual gathering. GOSH!!! Things really change. Initially we are talking about daily meetings and now we are talking about annual meetings!!! God knows what will happen to this gang a few years later.

Coming to MMU, I made a new group of friends. My coursemates are really cute. I got all types of coursemates. Blur blur type.. tai ka che type.. simple and nice type.. sampat type.. small kid type.. noob type.. LOL.. They are really nice and fun to play with. Feel grateful to have this group of friends to 'tai huai wo'. We were talking about weekly Thurday out of MMU trips during the Sunway Lagoon trip that day. So it means that every Thursday will be something to play. ^.^ Redbox Sunway Pyramid and Balakong, Sunway Lagoon, Genting, dim sum breakfast at Sri Petaling are among the drafts of our activities. Hehe But this group of friends.. will we be friends for the 4 years while we are studying or longer than that? My heart tells me that the former is the answer. Well you can say I am pessimistic but seriously.. this kind of things come and go. Friends come and go. New place = new friends. That's nature. You can't avoid it. Things change. What more human. Human change in split seconds. So my friend.. I don't know whether we will still be friends 1 or 2 or 3 years from now. So if you are reading this blog right now that means you are my friend. Hope we will still keep in touch in the near future!!
