somehow i have been a bad girl during this first term in smu. i scoffed seniors and bad-mouthed fellow project mate (emphasis placed on its singularity). i realised that i've been - as shuowen always pointed out, and sam always warned me of bad karma - very evil. muahahahahaha!! but seeing that the looming departure lurks, i've decided to annihilate the evil side of me by dedicating my heart and soul to wording, oozing saccharine-sweetness as much as possible, the happy and memorable moments of my transient dwelling in smu. before anything, the first love goes to smu, the most vibrant, different and fun university in this entire little island of ours. the following paragraphs were written with heart-felt gratitude, despite constantly minded of the fact that i've fleeting interest in bonding with old friends. i will try to make this time different.
mitchmy dearest tweenie!! no one can ever replace you in my life. simply because you're the michelle i have the most connection with. you are always there when i am down (which wasn't very often, except recently when i am quite emotionally disturbed) and bringing some laughter and joy to every similar seminars. classes without you are absolutely boring. my fellow ardent fan of 'the oc' series, to put it short and sweet, we are just so alike character-wise. upholding feminism whenever possible, we deter ourselves from reducing to lovelorn weaklings. 'CANNOT BE WEAK!!' is what we always tell each other. and our prevalent exclamation is "THAT'S SO WEAK!!" there are so many more things i could write about you. you made it my habit to use the words 'babe' and 'chill'. all those times we would be the only two who are available for chill-out sessions and we'll sit at luxurious coffee joints or cafes to just talk about how we feel and engage in intelligent topics. i guess we've reached that level that we can really read each other inside out. how can i forget the surreptitious eyeing of the cutie in management accounting class? right, he is no longer of our interest, yes? oh tweenie, i will terribly miss you. that is something words cannot express. and i'll remember not to get you an apple for your birthday. (:
shuowenseriously, i swear that this girl is the nicest girl you can ever meet. you are too nice, i reckon!! sam, you and i just bond so well due to a common enemy (the name shall not be announced. i am suppose to be nice!). shuowen makes it so fashionable to say 'excellent' and 'very good' in a damn professional way. you always help me to relief/vent my frustrations using healthy methods. i really have never seen you angry before!! even *ahem* some girl in your analytical skills debate group could only make you turn red. an inherent leadership quality makes you an absolutely ideal person to work with. you plan out meetings, delegate work fairly and cheer us on no matter how drain you yourself are. i will not forget the time we became high at your house after listening to mr tan's 'villa wellness' analogy during his interview. oh, and how about 'prof sam han' and 'strawberries'? and that 'was your day fruitful? ', with no pun intended? gosh, daphne chen shuowen rocks my socks. you are one of the few people i could connect with right at the beginning of school term. you just looked so harmless that i had to approach you. (: in short, i love you to bits. mitch and you are my darling advisers. thanks babe for ALL the fun!!
samanthathe first saint i got to know really well in smu. sam, you are my best, numero uno bitching partner. gosh, she's got anorexia!! ahh, she is getting fatter!! all the most sharp daggers belong to us. we can just kill off others with our lashing tongues. you just cannot stop swearing right? no, wait, you're getting better now. haha. oh no, bad karma!! it is always such a mirthful occasion to have meetings with you because the msn works wonders and we'll just continue with our clandestine conversations even though we were under the watchful eyes of a certain missy. doing peer evaluation with you is a must!! we are just ever so brutally honest. being partners-in-crime aside, you are indeed a good person to go to when i don't know where to have my meals and you are unexpectedly (judging from our unanimous eye rolling whenever something undesirable happens) concerned about everyone. you are very understanding as well. and i'll never forget the emotional trauma you put me through, albeit i know you didn't mean harm. haha. EHH, I THINK HE MIGHT LIKE YOU!! that haunted me quite a bit.
doreenyour friendliness was the main attracting factor. i saw you sitting beside wanshan during our first management accounting class. you were so warm and welcoming. instantly, i found a new friend. countless walks to the mrt station improved our rapport. i will always remember you helping an old lady, who was a stranger, to her destination. you were so worried when she got off at the wrong mrt stop. doreen dearie, you are so helpful. true that you do look unfriendly when concentrating, but when you are not, you are so bubbly and filled with energy. you know very well how to prioritise and are not afraid to speak your mind. a person whom i can relate to very well because you went to adelaide before. and now that i am leaving, your advices won't be turned on deaf ears. instead, i'll listen attentively to every pointer. oh yes, i will not forget you for being so homely and that is something i share with you. we both believe in the warmth of home. i love staying at home too. so we kind of share similar beliefs. seriously, doreen, i wouldn't know what to do if you weren't there when i needed some mature advices. you've been through so much and can really share your wisdom with us all. for that, i salute you, my dearest friend.
wanshanwhen i think of you, i think of 'chicken little'!! it is so hilarious that people think that you are bearing an uncanny resemblance to theabovementioned character. i've known you ever since we were in the first three months of jc life in sajc. oh gosh, i'll never forget the conversation when had during the first management accounting class. we were reminiscing times from kindergarten to junior college just to decipher where we last met. it was so exciting to see my old friend becoming a new friend. how quirky!! you are another one of my favourite chilling partners!! it seems like it's always the three of us (mitch included) who are free. everyone else will be occupied. and being in the same group for analytical skills debate was uber fun. jason really perked us up. and we really engaged in really intellectual topics. i like being intellectual. hahaha. i attempt to. and i really want to thank you for allowing me to rub some of that off you. of course, i love the quote 'michelle wasn't listening to class. she was looking everywhere else. she even noticed that i was stoning!!'. don't you just love stoning? haha. and i'll be the one who perpetually has something to say. oh well, just leave the talking to me. and you chill and stay cool, babe!!
marie annemarie anne!! mer!! hahaha. let's all go 'peewee' and make petrina squirm. (: i cannot believe how much this girl can sleep. you can sleep for 18 hours i heard? that can almost make anyone believe you fell into a comatose. nonetheless, you are very enthusiastic when it comes to chilling out sessions. and i cannot wait for the christmas party at your neighbourhood. you are my favourite mrt partner. we can talk non-stop till we arrive at your stop. that's the kind of connection i really like in a friend. you are always so hilarious and dizzy-looking. that throws me into a laughing fit. don't we all also love bitching about a certain girl who was in your bgs project group (i always seem to bring her up!! but she is like a main connecting point!!)? we can just go on and on about her, can we? oh right, we are going to hang out like crazy after your exams!! yay. i love going out with her because she is my source of entertainment. we are so blardy cool. it is really sad that we only bonded more during the last few weeks of school. and i demand that we make up for lost time. one more thing we have in common is that we have online friends who are in the western world, who kind of confuse us. let's all be strong. i love you, mer!!
suwei and joanna, i am feeling absolutely fine. i am not a weakling. i don't allow guys to ruin my life. i am a strong girl. and i rawk!! hurhur.
OH YES, I LOVE CEDRIC DIGGORY!! call me MRS CEDRIC DIGGORY and you'll make a mirthful lady out of me.
