One day as i was walking through Davis, I realised that I was looking at our Happy House. A house, a cottage actually, with a patio. The lights were on, the people living there were out on the patio, drinks, food, sitting around, chilling. And I immediately recognized this dream to be ours. I suddenly wanted to pull out my phone and call each one of you with this news. and I suddenly missed ALL of you with a strength that made me want to cry. This is strange coz till now, I've not cried coz of homesickness or coz I am missing you guys terribly. Sure i do, but I can still control it. I read the recent entries and am 'quite'(I think!) up to date with what is happening over at Singapore. I empathise with the 2 people involved. And i DO see (eventhough Wanqing says I Don't) and know where they are coming from. I don't know what I can say to make you two feel better. I really don't. I think I have managed to make WQ pissed and Yun feel that I don't really care. One might even say that I seem to be so preoccupied with having fun here I am neglecting/ignoring what is happening. But whenever I do have access to the internet and I read what is happening, I feel very sad. Whatever I have to say or have opinions about, I think would incite both sides further towards anger, so I will simply say, TRY and step into the other person's shoes and see where that other person is coming from. Do it, simply coz you love your friend, Do it, coz you'll only gain and not lose a thing. Do it, coz understanding leads one closer to a resolution. You might not accept the choices others make but at least understand why such a choice was made.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, their own choices. But choices and opinions do not stand alone. Along with them are consequences. Choices are shapers of the future. So Yes, you are entitled to them but please do not take it lightly for they do have repercussions.
I love you gals and I want the Happy house in my heart to be still intact.
