you know what has been incredible for me? the many people in my life. i've re-wrote this page so many times becoz i just love to talk about the special people in my life. and here i am re-writing it all over again. ever since i came here to uk, the one person who has kept me steady is ee von, who is probably the most important person in my life rite now. as she said, it's pretty amazing that we can be so far away from each other and still not miss a single beat in each other's lives. i have found it incredible that she still keeps me rite in her heart and that we can tell each other practically anything and everything and probably not truly listen to each other! heheh... it's just that we fill our mails with everything that's happening with names of the people in our separate lives and not don't even bother replying to whatever the other person has said, except for the more important bits. but i guess this is something both of us can only understand. the other important person in my life is my other half, gurjeet. i've said this before, and i'll say it again, both of us are kindred spirits... we're just so alike in so many ways that we just know whatever interests us, will usually interest the other. most of the times anyway. there's this bonding between us that we can't explain. and the third and far from being the least important person in my life, is sharmila, who is quirky, mad, silly, fantastic, fun... she's everything to me. she's just one of those people who makes me feel like i'm the most special kind of person, and somebody who i know for sure, will be my best friend for the rest of my life. luv u babes! i met carla here in uk, and that weird connected feeling pops up when i got to know her better, somewhat like what happened with gurjeet and sharm. but she's great, she's one of those fun people who cracks you up and you just want to be her good friend. can't wait to get to know her really well later this year! rite now we don't have the opportunity to get to know each other too deep yet becoz we're both on different campuses. tricia is such a dear sister-in-christ, who never fails to encourage me for her love for jesus. it's surprising, but i find it amazing how i can sit with her and just talk and talk. li yuan is simply one of the more special people i've met in my life. she's so much fun with her amazing wit and great one-liners. always cheerful, always smiling and just so easy to be friends with. i've grown a lot closer to her during the last few weeks of our course together, with the group studies and all, and i would definitely say i would regret it if i had not. the other funny girl i know is hui min. funny as in not funny type of person, but rather, amazingly witty and sharp and always ready to laugh. she seems to draw everyone so easily to herself with her easy openness. she seems to never fail to make me smile and laugh, even at the times when i don't feel bubbly and energetic. college life has been an amazing time in my life, and it wouldn't have been so without people like joanne and doris to make things so brilliant. people like azli, june, shaz, cher chieh, ryan, stanley, rafiq, gu jun, chern lin, lian ling, ben, tze kok, nithie, sean and so many others seemed to have added so much colour into college. it wouldn't have been the same without them. and another person i've met in my time in uk, who has been really great is ashley cichocki, who has been a great friend to me in the past few months. although both of us seem to be completely opposites of each other in the way we think. he seems to be this brilliant thinker while i seem to be like one of those average people compared to him. ee von told me once about how she found it unsettling to finally find really good friends who you dare to open your heart to, and have them slip out of your life again, which just goes to show how true it about how people come and go in our lives. maybe it's just that at this point, when i'm done with my undergraduate degree and look towards my future, i feel a little nostalgia creeping up to me. and i think about the people in my life, in malaysia, which resembles somewhat of another life, and the people in my life rite now, i feel truly blessed that i've had the opportunities to be part of the lives of the people i've met and been somewhat special to as well.
