Tonight, or rather yesterday night was the 2nd week in a row that I missed the bus stop that I was supposed to stop at to get back to Raffles Hall after a whole long Friday. I slept on the bus because I was so tired. I missed the stop. I ended up walking damn far to get back to my room. Exercising in the middle of the night, after a long tiring day. Not something that I really wanted to do at that time of the day.A small little sacrifice that makes you wonder why do you do it, but at the same time, you know it is worth it because it sent a warmth tiny feeling in your stomach everytime you think about it.
These people, the people I call FAMILY here in Singapore. You guys got no idea how much I look forward for FRIDAY nights every week.
Who cares if Boon Keng is at the other end of the world?
Because that is the only place in the world that I rather be at on a FRIDAY night.
Who cares if it will take me another 30 mins to get back just to spend that extra 15 mins with you guys?
Because you guys make me feel so at ease that nothing else matter, I can always sleep in the bus and then walk a million miles away to get back because I know it's worth it.
Who cares if all my friends say I am crazy to go to Boon Keng every week when people from Boon Keng who stays in hall do not even go back every week?
Because it is there, that I can be at peace with God and make sure that I am not shunting Him out of my life. Because it is there, that I feel at home.
Who cares if I am gonna drop dead because of fatigue on Friday nights?
Because I know that at least one of you guys will be there to catch me when I fall.
Sorry that I have not been spending enough time with you peeps because of architecture. But THANK YOU for everything even though it seemed like nothing, sometimes all the SMSes really do help me pull through the day because I know you are there for me, as a family member and friend. Singapore don't seemed so uncaring,selfish and in it's own timezone anymore but filled with love, care and sincerity of its people.
