Hey... just felt like posting something to you guys... i guess the slow breaking up was inevitable, we all have our own lives, our own committments, our own schools.. less time spent together just leads to weakening of the bonds we once had. But like they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder, and after leaving CJ for more than a year already, i still can't help but think back to the great times we had.. cheesy i know, but i just feel like saying this.

looked in my file today, and saw the post card that manda and ling wrote to me, don't know if you guys still remember it, and with it, i also remember that you two once complained that SA was super cannot make it and all that, but see? i bet you guys are doing fine there :) .

Call me stupid, but i guess i won't let go of the bond we once had, even if its only 1 way, i'll always remember the class that we were, that we still are perhaps, and i'll always hope that we can get together again.. how about a meeting during the june hols? heh.. wonder if people still read this blog even. but anwyays, i'll leave you guys a poem that i find to be rather apt, in a way.

The Gift Outright
The land was ours before we were the land's.
She was our land more than a hundred years
Before we were her people. She was ours
In Massachusetts, in Virginia,
But we were England's, still colonials,
Possessing what we still were unpossessed by,
Possessed by what we now no more possessed.
Something we were withholding made us weak
Until we found out that it was ourselves
We were withholding from our land of living,
And forthwith found salvation in surrender.
Such as we were we gave ourselves outright
(The deed of gift was many deeds of war)
To the land vaguely realizing westward,
But still unstoried, artless, unenhanced,
Such as she was, such as she would become.

hope to see you guys soon! i'll always believe in the class that we were :)
