where have you gone?
with the large bird monument at clark quay, along singapore river
ive always taken you off when i knew you might get wet. you didnt seem to mind.
you've seen this little one grown up
you came along to the great wall of china with mom and dad, againso on jj night, you trusted me when i tucked you into my navy blue abercrombie shorts' right pocket, keeping my phone and hoop earrings company.
sigh.
you came with me to obs during the inaugural nyf,
with these two really talented girls - michelle and valerieyou were always there, accompanying me when i was away from home.
you saw me through the last years of scgs, even during the prom at fullerton
then you met the dear sec4 girls during our reunions while we were in our jcs.
here's with phil (before she flew faraway) at hollandv swensen's.
when i went to poly, you came with me to visit these girls again,
when ms heng decided to step down as principal. here's with jasin, at island creamery.clothes have been changed, handphones have been updated, hairstyles or shoes have altered to vaious styles, occasions or reasons. but you see, youre the beloved one that had constantly been there for me.
you met the girls, again, ive known since primary school
and been in the same classes during our last years at scgs, pri and secondary.
this was after lunch at hollandv with serena, phil and suk.
camps (girl guides punggol camp, friendship camp, orientation, etc.) or overseas trips (yun nan, malacca, nias, etc.). on my dates (ok, i cant name this haha). proms (scgs and jjc graduation nights). major exams (o levels, a levels, SATs). during work (albert court hotel, fairfield methodist primary school). even my driving test(s). everywhere i went, you came along.
you kept me company when i ventured to the jc route on my own,
with only less than 5 scgs girls in the pjc intake.
this was my pjc science class, 04s04 during the first three months.
at pjc, i was part of their mini-council too. you and i helped to plan for the orientation two,
which many of us passionately did our duties but didnt stay.
this was taken during one of pjc's casual fridays, with the publicity committee (pubco) girls.
youve seen the esplanade, the libraries, orchard road,
timothy's place, school(s), the istana's toilet, fullerton, the president, sentosa, bus rides, disney on ice, the cold mountains at yun nan, the beaches at nias, and even
timothy's bed ;)
then with you, i went to jj in the end. meeting these few girls and becoming councilmates
here's at one of gcx's bbq, with alice, dawn, naz and pj.
during the early times in council, you came with the 24th jj councillors and i to bintan,
for community service. here's us outside a primary school building we painted.
haha remember this? it's the camp at st. johns with the 25th batch.
this was the last day and the girls were just starring at the weird guys doing a "24"
so many people have tried you on and tried to take you off, under my supervision. and they just cant. somehow you never made it easy for them. to others, it was like a acrobatic act to put you on. and to take off, it was acrobatic act two. but you let me wrap you around me, easily and comfortably.
sigh.
this is with the councillors again, at amanda's house this time.youre in the only picture that has all 23 of us, outside of school premises.
at our graduating year, you and i met up with some of the councillors who attended the anniversary dinner at suntec.
this is one of the most recent ones, just last christmas at vivo.
a few days before christmas, we had our present exchange.
you were a part of me. you'd be the first thing i put on before i went out and last thing i'd take off by the end of the day.
ah-ha. you met this girl during orientation too. even til our last days at jj.
im sure you remember idza bagio. youve seen her too many times :)
with her again during the jj prom, where she stood by me like a rock :)
i hope she's doing alright in whatever she's doing up at ntu. i hope you know i miss you.
i'm sorry i dropped you that night, somewhere. i never imagined a day like this.
this was at jj too, notice you were a big part of me in jj too?
here's at school, year one, before our formal class picture.
with marilyn, jessie, simin, aileen, diana and polar b.
yup, you came with me to yun nan for community service with a bunch of people at jj.
here's one group of them. spot the bigthing! :)
ah-HA. and after jj, you saw how bigthing and i grew closer.
here's at sentosa on my 20th with him, where he let me kiss someone else for awhile :)it felt utterly vulgar and wrong to be missing you on my wrist the morning after. ok i put on another one my sis gave me, though it was pretty, i felt that i was cheating on you.
it just felt misplaced.
here comes poly, when i had to come out of that shell.
you were one of the few things that stayed by me.this was taken during location video in year one,
where we played with lighting and Mouse was being cute, as usual.
one of our class outings to sentosa, for steph's birthday.
i just realise that you've seen sentosa quite a few times, huh.
this isnt at sentosa. you came with me to a class chalet outing.
the very infamous one* though still fun.and because i need a watch to get back to my normal life, i hope you dont mind me searching around for another of you. though somehow every piece doesnt seem to have that same magic that i had with you. tim was even kind enough to offer getting the same you back from swatch, but you see, it'll never be
you.
yup, in poly i went for a community service trip too. this time at nias, indonesia.
you were with me, making a mistake during a english song demo with the orphanage kids.
still at nias, cultural night, you got to know vera better,
other than just being my schoolmate. her sleeping habits and what not :)
here's quite recent. at np's open house.
you and i, plus some others, doing a radio demo show for the visitors.well, good to know, im probably going to get another metal, stainless steel one from swatch, ok?
you'll always be remembered. promise. im sorry again :(
hope youve found a good owner. well, i probably think he doesnt know how to put it on or take it off. serves him/her right!
sigh.
rest well, dear one, wherever you are.
