Friends

Hey everyone,

Hello.. HELLO!.. thought so.. everyone should sound asleep by now.. anyway i have been packing till the very end, now it is all sorted.. just like to share something with you all.. Personally and sincerely from my heart, thank you for everything, Jimmy, Chen, Derek, Christine, Grace, Timothy, Joanna, George, Max, Sunny, Michael, Shi Chen, Jessie.. and those of out town atm.. Esther and Tommy.. (i hope i didnt miss out anyone.. remind me if i did..)..

It has been a wonderful year, hasn't it? Well, i bet everyone have some sort of challenges that they may have face.. and hopefully, at the end of day through God's will.. everything turns up just fine.. it came across my mind when i was reminded about the testimonies for the church christmas magazine.. usually at this stage, i would think what i ought to be thankful for.. how did i survive this year.. the challenges, the joy, the fun, the sad, the great stuff.. all it comes down to "you guys and girls".. When i sat there among all of you.. being sneaky.. looked at each of you.. what i see is absolute emotional joy and really thankful..

Each of you are special in your ways.. i think the reason that Group 2 (literally speaking) is so awesome.. is that we have a great mix of personalities among us.. funny, cool, quiet, pretty, caring, lovely, cute.. (and goes on).. It is moments like this that it is hard to come by.. for those that may leave us, i think they feel the same way..

When we leave from being a student and into the workforce or other things.. we will miss these times.. it is definitely worth to cherish those around us.. However, saying so, Derek recently send me a txt, regarding that friends should remember each other, even without communicating or actually having the person physically there.. Interesting, isnt it? How does one remember another without being seen for so long.. Likewise.. isnt it much like how we know God is always there but we cant see Him.. Thus, even though we may not always be around each other.. as brothers and sister in Christ.. as friends.. we should always stand as one, supporting each other through prayers.. Even when we have limitations.. God already fulfilled what we lack in ourselves.. just believe in Him.

--Those that may leave..

George
, you have been a great friend to me, and always will be. You are a strong minded person, when you put yourself into doing something, you can do a great job. Never lose hope and always put your hope where it is most worthy, God. I have to say, you have a very cool car. Go Trueno! Haha. Take care.

Christine, christine is a very interesting person.. cool, calm and collected in her own way, which is great.. yea! High five! Cheers! All the best in your future venture.. From afar i can see, there is a lot of good prospect waiting for ya.. haha! i guess you will feel ready when you are.. God has the best plan for you. A wine toast to Christine and her super great smile.. smiling is a blessing..

Joanna, someone i have great respect for.. it is rare and exceptional to see someone can speak their mind so literally and concise.. very intellectual, really caring, filled with joy.. which makes you a great teacher for children anywhere.. All the best in graduation, future work, relationships, life ahead.. surely God has His surprises, waiting for you to uncover.. having patience is a virtue. God bless you.

Sunny.. the sunshine.. also a strong minded and active person, who takes on every challenges like a true warrior.. direct and caring in her own way. There are definitely big goals out there for you.. you can definitely achieve them with God leading you all the way.. All the best in the mission trip fund.. believe in God that He will open a way.. or two or three.. there is always a way in Him.. take care and see you next year.

------

Derek, Jimmy, Chen, Michael, Grace, Timothy, Max, Shi Chen and Jessie.. i definitely see you guys next year.. Dont be too stress out over exams.. condensing 13 weeks studies into a 3 hour exams definitely has its toll on the mind and body. Rest and eat well. All the very best in your exams, holiday or working plans.. God bless you with all the peace, joy and love, my friends.

Over and out. Peace be with you all.
