the best of friendships form under realli weird circumstances. many a times, they always say... u dun need alot of best friends.. just 1-2 and a whole lot of buddies, acquaintances and ppl u know when u call for help will definitely be what i call.. "2 steps behind u.."

i sat at muchuan today.. while listening to ken serenade. nvr once doubt his ability to sing with tt "god-given" voice he had.. he sang a couple of my favourites.. including the recent song tt kept going thru in my head..
zhang jing xuan - duan dian

many times i found myself wandering thru my thoughts.. lost.

i looked at ken and thought of how our friendship started while temp-ing at NTUC INCOME. i remembered we went for the interview together.. i didnt talk much.. so he started breaking the ice by introducing himself and asking if he knew how much was the pay scale. i had thought we would be in different depts.. end up, we worked under the same boss.. in the same dept.. doing the same thing together with CY and KK.

he was alwix the quiet one.. alwix the punctual one who never fails to reach office at 830am sharp.. but is also the one that falls alsp most of the time with his hand still on the mouse. *laughs* not forgetting that he was also the one tt drank so much water tt he had to refill his 125ml bottle every 30 mins and to visit the toilet at the same time.

we had lotsa fun during the earlier times.. when our boss didnt realli bother bout us.. and we arrange our work load, chit chat, lunch, tea break to 8 hours a day. pure fun i tell u. never looked fwd to work so much tt time. we took 2 hours lunch break.. and would walk down to selegie to have our tao huay.. then slowly stroll back to office. i suppose a part of us were apprehensive at the way we were behaving in office, then again.. another part of us actually found it exciting. heh. never got caught anyway.. CY was the one tt alwix had smart excuses. -grin-

i remembered how u and i actually had heart to heart talks at marina south's macs.. u r realli not someone tt open up easily.. tho, every day at work.. could see tt something was bothering u.. but everytime i asked.. u declined to say much.. until we sat down at macs.. chatted bout life.. bout r/ships.. and it was when i talked to u bout CK.. i'll never forget that look on ur face.. u finally opened up.. talked to me bout ur ex.. and bout wat was on ur mind..

good times never last long enuf for me to enjoy. as the months past.. 4 of us gradually became onli 1. me. the last man standing. all 3 of them left to pursue their own careers.. leaving me to wait till sch reopens.

i never thought this piece of friendship.. a very special one.. could last all the way till now.. uve been such a wonderful someone.. listening, accompanying, singing, laughing together with me when i was down.. no matter how many times i asked u to sing "wang le ai".. u'll just laugh.. but still pick up tt guitar.. just like how u did so today.

btw.. his real name is not ken.. its just a name i gave him..

ken.. dedicate this entry specially to u.

1) for tt big big big patience u have with me at guitar learning even tho i always end up chucking the guitar aside.. u still take the time to key in the chords for me in the hp..

2) for the times we had by esplanade.. we should do it again some time..

3) for waking up and listening to my grumbles at 2am till morning.. and believing i'll realli send the teriyaki chicken over -grin-

4) for singing "wang le ai" over and over again coz i still love it.. now u can start practising "duan dian" coz i wan to use it as my ringtone. heh.

5) for being my bus directory

i'll drop by again on the 18th i hope.. then i'll have ken and anson! speaking of anson.. another guy who is realli comical, great vocals, good looks. heh.

meanwhile, fireworks make me happy and i just went for the 2359hrs one. heh.
gona slp now.. rus and jia coming over in a couple of hours later..

it was a great day.. =)
