devastatingly human

i wish we'd taken more photos in class, in lectures.
how we'd all skip math lecture cause we're all smart asses
i wish we'd gathered more often for class gatherings
i wish we'd done more stuff like swimming or staying over at someone's house, playing a game of intellectual RISK, which only tongkai likes, (we did have one stayover at my punggol hse which was too little) or more makan sessions at the canteen or late supper gatherings. like the one we had looking at stars in orchard.
i wish i have something to remember each and everyone of you by
and i'd love to be your class rep all over again even though i'm an incompetent bimbo
here's goodbye to andre and khoonliat (hi himbo, if your still reading my blog faithfully), to shoes and naz.
charlene i'll kill you if you leave too but i pray u get your scholarship. you deserve it, much respect my navy officer :)

Oh god i wish we had more girly outings at west coast park
the one where i brought my dog and tied all our bags to his leash so that he would stay still and not run off.
like that really helped when another dog came.. we ended up chasing him and all our flyings bags trailing behind his waggy tail
and i remember how we played flying fox and climbed up the spider web

oh god why didn't i come to send the both of you off?
i'm glad hongy's nt leaving. and i'm half glad i'm not leaving because farewells break my heart.
and we may strive to keep some semblance of contact
but we all know things will never be the same again.
The watershed where we all grow up and leave for the paths that call out to us.

camp's disbanded,
the stars are all faded
night's gone
moon's sinking
campfire's ebbing
and all i can think of is this really old song i learnt back in the nygh sec 1 camp

mmm, i want to linger here
mmm, a little longer here
mmm, i want to linger here
with you.
