She is my friend, my mentor, my guiding light. We went to the same kindergarten, the same primary school, I followed her to the same secondary school despite the distance and even to the same junior college. My path was exactly the same as hers before I took up design. And now, our paths couldn’t be any more different! So are our looks, dressing, tastes, ideals and philosophies of life. Now, we are as different as heaven and earth, dawn and dusk … everything opposite. Before, I followed her blindly as I look up to her and I know taking the path she took will never be wrong. Now I am bold enough to take my own path. Though not as safe, but I am happy. Even though we are as opposite as two person can get, all these does not dilute our bond. Despite our differences, she is still is my role model, my advisor, my guide in life and someone I can confide in. Someone I know who’ll always be there for me. And ever so supportive of all my crazy ideas even if she cannot understand why I have to do certain things.

Always the school belle whichever school she went to, guys who are after her are always trying to get into the good books of her kid sister :) She is so talked about in many boy’s schools that she was really a celebrity .. no kidding.

We used to talk late into the nite in our shared room. I cried when I realised that will never happen again when she got married. But I’m so happy for her that she had found her fairytale and is happy everafter. That, I wish I’ll follow in her footsteps :)

A Taurus, ever so level-headed and rational, a direct contrast from me who rely too much on my emotions, I wonder if we can ever become friends if we were not fated to be sisters. I really doubt so. But this fate has brought me one of the best things in life.

Whenever I need her clear-headedness, she is always there for me. She is always there to hold the family together even though she has a family of her own now. I admire her dedication to both her families, giving us equal attention and being able to do so well as a career woman as well as a mother, a wife, a sister and a daughter. I’ll always look to you when it is my turn to carry such additional responsibilities.

My very first overseas trip (other than Malyasia …) was made possible only cos’ she contributed to a big chunk of my expenses, without expecting a repayment. And this first trip is an extravagant Europe trip! At that time, she had not been to Europe herself. Her generousity and selflessness touched me till now. Even till now, she has not have the chance to visit all those places that I was able to explore cos’ to her. She gave me a memory that will last me a lifetime and an experience I can never forget. Thank you!

She is the best sister anyone can ask for and I am so fortunate to have her. Even though you don’t say it, I know you love me, I love you too! Happy Birthday Gu! 12.48am

I, a student of life April 12, 2007

Very often we find ourselves reluctant students of life. In the recent few months, I went through so much emotionally, learnt so much and grown so much. Through each new episode I find myself emerged a stronger person. I surprised myelf this time. I can almost detach myself and see myself as Super Mario who had just stumbled upon the gigantic mushroom that allows him to go through obstacles. Stages and stages of obstacles we have to go through, not by choice. If you ask me, I’d rather be lucky but weak than to have to go through so much in order to become strong. Then again, maybe I have to go through some hard times in order to appreciate the good and not take things for granted. 3am

LucyD in the sky April 8, 2007

LucyD was in the sky. She tried hard to spot the stars, but though she was supposed to be so close that she could touch the stars, she cannot really see them as the clouds made everything blurry. She went through the misty clouds and landed on the soft field of the Garden of Marshmallow … LucyD is back. She felt strange as she is not sure if she is happy or sad to be back. She was just beginning to get used to the strange place full of strange beings. 4.28am

Miss the Garden of Marshmallow April 4, 2007

LucyD is so far away from home now. She is all alone in a strange land where there is no night. There are no stars. She misses the stars at home. Here at night, the sky is bright, you can never tell when is day and when is night, when it’s time to lay down your head and sleep and when to wake. Thus, LucyD is exhausted. This land is full of strange beings too, all rushing around, threading between blocks of candies tightly placed together. LucyD loses her way all the time here.

LucyD misses PattyAnne, and Jooja and most of all Lemy. PattyAnne is not in the Garden of Marshmallow now too. Hope wherever she is, she can see stars in the sky at night. Lemy is away too … LucyD hopes that wherever he is, he will come back to her soon cos’ she really misses him alot alot. Her world is so grey without him. It’s really cold now too. See you back in the beautiful Garden of Marshmallow, Lemy.
